She works in a clothing store so naturally she knows about different styles. Usually she's been very shy and timid (read: normie) to the way she dresses. A few weeks ago we talked about clothing and I hinted that I like 'decent' clothing. A few days later she showed me a mirror pic of her trying on neat trousers with small grey-white plaid. I told her that I liked it on her but she was hesitant to buy it. A week days ago she told me she bought it and I got to see it on her a few days ago.

I'm not forcing her. That wouldn't work. She's too stubborn with the way she dresses for that

Uniqlo doesn't follow Ivy as closely, also a lot of their stuff is made in Japan (uniqlo never is).

It sure does. Also I hate buying clothes online I don't think I've ever done it before. Really will only buy clothes and shoes after trying them on given how variable sizing is. Was looking at LL Bean today and even if I did want to sink hundreds on a pair of shoes and some more on shipping if they don't fit right I get to enjoy the hassle of long distance customer service and another month waiting to get confirmation my return went through. Then another month waiting for a new pair and thats assuming they let me...etc etc. not worth it

I'm lucky to live near a Brooks Brothers but you're right about their trash website. I got the last pair of madras bermuda shorts in the store which were a size 32 when I am a size 30.

Buying online is a bloody nightmare for me since I've starting living in Paris. There's always lots of doors with codes before the delivery person can get in, and because they're retarded they always get lost and go back to the depot where the package sits for ages somewhere in the suburbs before being forwarded to another service which tried to put it in a shop that I've asked for before saying it's not available before putting it in the hands of some random shop a hundred miles away from where I live.

Don't forget the big beards and the epic reddit accessories like canes and shit. Ivy/Prep stuff can be bright and bold but its not obtrusive, vulgar or ridiculous like a guy obsessing over pocket squares and vests is. The beauty of the styles itt is utility, the timelessness, the comfort and the un-pretentiousness of it. I guess a "prep" style is the way I have dressed more or less since I was a kid and its something I do unthinkingly and actually only learned recently its a "style" and not just "wearing clothes that aren't basketball shorts and streetwear ninja shit" which is what it was in my mind.

Where can I get a relatively casual, completely unconstructed sportcoat for the summer in the US? I love the J. Keydge jackets sold by John Simons in the UK, and the J Crew "chore blazers" sort of hit the note but they don't quite have the Ivy details I'm looking for. I'm open to general summer-y thin fabrics like linen, thin cotton, madras, seersucker, etc.

178 here (or 179 depending on the time of day) its honestly no big deal we're the king of manlets. Wear shoes and especially boots and you're 6ft or over anyway. I mean nobody looks at us and says tall but neither will they say short. The key thing is to be trim enough for a jacket like that. Only works if you're fat if you're big and fat. Otherwise if you're more outward than upward you end up looking shorter anyway. Give it a go with dress shoes on you're already not a legal manlet anyway stop being so self conscious that will be way more obvious than the 4.1cm you think you're mising off your legs

This is a bit hard to find, but deadstock/vintage 1960s jackets fit this bill if you can find them. O'Connells has deadstock or new ones from time to time, but that's obviously very expensive. I have what I think is an 80s Brooks Bros seersucker sportcoat that sort of fits this bill (not completely unconstructed though). Uniqlo sometimes has Ivy-esque unconstructed sportcoats, but not every summer.

A bunch of other Japanese companies make them every summer, like Soutiencol, VAN JAC (vintage or the shittier reboot), and alsoBEAMS/BEAMS PLUS, I saw some on Ebay searching "Beams japan blazer".

If you wanna blow some money, I think thickasthievesla will do mtm to fit this bill.

Look at a lot of the fieldsports based Insta pages. If you imagine the same fits but without the breeks, plus twos/fours or whatever. Just sub those out for chinos, moleskin, cords, even jeans if you like and you're about there. Just watch the fit and tailoring obviously. If you're not shooting you likely won't need as baggy a fit. Chunky brogues like you say, a good pair of boots if you're somewhere a bit muddier.

I'm surprised at how constructed "period" ivy stuff is, especially for the chest areas. A lot of "bleeding madras" stuff from back then seems to be lined and says dryclean only too.

This fit is awful but I love the shirt-like construction (almost neapolitan?) of BEAMS summer sportcoats.

Speaking of neapolitan, does anyone still custom make stuff like this? It would be cool to have italian details like spalla camicia with an otherwise textbook ivy sportcoat (I have seen some midcentury vtg BB suits that do this, eg grey natural shoulder flannel suit with spalla camicia).

It rather depends. I wear a tweed cap almost year around apart from high summer but I'd say a lot less wear on everything outside of the shooting season. I get more use out of my Barbour jacket between now and when it gets too warm for it. It keeps the magic in the tweed a bit more.

Tweed suits are a different question again, I have a really nice charcoal/navy Donegal suit that I wear a lot. Same for a brown checked one but that's often just the jacket.

Bespoke suit and never a tux. Get a suit in a conservative color that you can wear in other applications later. Don't pay money on a suit you'll wear once.
I'm going to be a lawyer and i got a dark navy suit made that way I can still wear it in the office.
