Sorry for dumb question - how to know if ur mustand jeans are original or contrefeit? I can't find any data online? Are there even fake Mustangs?

I got some from Vinted for 5 euro and they seem high quality cotton, and patch seems ancient, but I can't verify because jeans look very old and heavily used.

Any hints?

Hello,

I am looking for a men’s Italian leather wallet and need some recommendation for Italian Brands. I am looking for mid to high end brands but trying to avoid Gucci, Prada, etc.

Any help would be appreciated!!

Hello,

I'm used to buy C&A but i feel like from 2 years or 3 and now this is going down in quality, my shirts wont last 3 months.... I'm done with it.

I heard about NEXT is this a good one? What would you recommend on Zalando and most important what is BAD and what should i avoid? How good is Jack and Jones?

i'm aiming like 4XL stuff.... Thanks for your tips

I like to wear "bold" shirts - i.e. a striking pattern or florals. I have a slim build and like a more fitted shape, but I also really find a chest pocket essential for holding my reading glasses these days and I really struggle to find all 3 in one place.

For example Charles Tyrwhitt 15.5 (or medium) and Slim fit are great on me - if I want a white or plain business shirt (and I have a couple). Plus you can add a pocket (costs £10 and you can't then return it, so I often order to check, send it back, re-order with pocket!). But most of the time they are plain and "boring" (read professional)

Brook Taverner have some great fabrics, but their tailored fit ones have no pockets, and the classic fit that do just look like a tent on me.

Blake Mill also have lovely ones ( https://blakemill.co.uk/collections/printed-shirts ), but no pockets (I even emailed and they said they don't as it's hard to get the pattern to line up - but other places seem to manage it!)

Then to pick a random site that I saw an ad for like https://lucamilanoshirts.com/ - again nice colours (never ordered so don't know actual quality), but no pockets again.

Even looked at a couple of online tailors but they don't have the really different looking fabrics.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Spencers, sleeveless pullovers / sweaters / jumpers, vests, call them what you will - basically sweaters with a v-neck and no sleeves. I've taken a liking to these and am looking for a relatively thick one, preferably from lambs wool or something like that. Men's. They appear to be surprisingly hard to find. Either they're too thin (or cotton) or women's or too rugged. What are your favorites?

My build is pretty tall with slim shoulders, and I have trouble finding brands for shirts and sweaters. A shirt that fits me really well is the flannel shirt by Mr. Marvis, which has a 42.5 cm shoulder width but still 67cm sleeve length.

I've been looking around, some other brands are Asket and Medium Tall but their selection seems a bit limited/basic.

Are there any other good quality brands that you could recommend, that tend to fit people with my build?

I have been increasingly disappointed by internet shopping for menswear. Since I live in the EU, I can organize short vacation trips to near- and medium-distance menswear hotspots and make my purchases after trying on a piece to see how it fits.

If you had to pick a European destination that offers the widest variety in terms of style (from trad to tech), purpose (from head to toe), and quality (from thrifty try-outs to bespoke life-long purchases), as well as year-round accessibility with affordable flights, which city would that be?

Insipired by this thread over on /r/malefashionadvice. I thought it would be fun to give this a European twist.

• Name one brand, ideally explain why you're choosing that brand
• Does no include shoes

Pic 1 is the Best Down Jacket by Brut, pic 2 is the Eddie Bauer x Buck Mason Cascade Down 1940 Skyliner Jacket. I'm sure they're worth their price tag but I'm looking to see if there's something similar that is also more affordable.

Thanks.

As the title says, I'm looking for a all-purpose warm and reaaaaaally waterpoof coat with a hoodie (without fur). By all-purpose I mean it can use it casually in a not-so-rainy day, or during winter under heavy rain in Copenhagen without an umbrella, or to go for a hike in the Pyrenees. I like to travel and I like Nature. Not into extreme things though.

I'm on a ~200€ budget, and looking to get the most out of the january discounts. I'm based in Spain so I have Zalando and a bunch of outlet apps that I scroll everyday.

I was really pursuing Northface items, and I fell in love with the M GTX Multi-Pocket coat (pic). I was waiting for the price to drop even more (I can get it at 369€)

But this review made me second guess: https://youtu.be/iwMCG1nlrWI?si=eYY_NHlazcuxKmkR

Everything I read makes me not want to buy a Northface coat in general. People complain about the materials, lack of warmth, feathers coming out (I got busy these days reading reviews on their website).

I also really liked some colorful coats by Bergaus but at 450€ it's a no-go.

So, having all of this in mind, what models/brands should I check out? What are the red/green flags that I should look out for?

tl;dr; Need brand/model suggestions for a winter waterpoof coat

Hey, I am looking for loose pants. Does anyone know good alternatives to the Jaded London parachute pants?

Looking for a brand with menswear that’s usually made out of natural fibers, sometimes made in Europe, in a nice simple casual style and affordable. A bit like Brandy Melville is for women. What would be the male equivalent?

Their t shirts more generally are better looking than shirts made for North America. Euro/Scandinavian/Italian guys T-shirts often slimmer with higher and angled sleeves, neck is typically wider opening. They just look better. What are some places that sell these style shirts. Like where does the average reasonably fashionable college guy who wants to look decent buy his clothes?!

I’ve been buying men clothes online from a brick and mortar store in Italy. Prices used to be same as buying in the store, but with an added shipping cost and with no VAT. Over the last 2 years, the shop started displaying 2 prices, one for Italian and European countries which includes VAT, and another for US shoppers which is 33% higher. Upon asking the store for the reason of this discriminatory pricing policy, their response is that several other retailers do the same. Has anyone else experienced the same?

Hello, so Im looking for two things:

1. A merino wool sweater, basically something light, smart with a higher gauge. I tried Uniqlo, and while I liked them, I lost a lot of weight and now they hang on me. So Im trying to upgrade and two caught my eyes: The merino wool sweater from ISTO and the one from ASKET. I only bough t-shirts from ASKET so I have no idea what to expect when it comes to knits. I read here that ISTO is basically Uniqlo made in europe. Is that true? Do any of you have any experience with these sweater?

2. A heavier wool sweater. Again the ISTO one caught my eye but also one from a french company called Loom. Sadly the whole page is in french so Im literally navigating it through google translate so again, Im left guessing as to how good the garments are. Any experience with this company or what google translated as: The thick sweater?

Thanks in advance.

I am looking for a winter jacket for Norwegian winters.

My requirements are something that's relatively light, high quality construction and something that's quite warm (I run cold).

I'm wondering if it's enough to go with brands like Patagonia/Arc'teryx vs something more expensive like Mackage/Moose Knuckles/Nanamica/Moncler.

Price under 1500$ ideally, but willing to spend for the right jacket.

Any men’s shirts similar to washed poplin? I only see green which I already have and love.

I've been searching for good jeans for over a year and am struggling to find a good fit.

I'm tall (186cm) with an athletic build, and my optimal jean size is 29 x 34 in athletic fit. But, I haven't found a single brand that sells in those dimensions. I have a short torso too, so jeans with higher rises (28cm/11"+) don't look good on me.

I love a straight or slightly loose fit personally -- definitely not skinny. Can anyone recommend some brands? Or, am I doomed to ill-fitting jeans forever?

I'm based in Germany, but I could also grab a pair in the UK. Cheers!

What brand!

Hi, last week I started a thread about shoes, and got some good advices.

Now, I have to buy some nice sneakers (casual-business style for work), and I discovered a local store with good choice of Santoni and Tod's sneakers, and also Hogan and Filling Pieces. Prices on sale are about 400 euro or less, Filling Pieces is under 200 euro. This suits my budget for 2 pairs. There will be bigger sales but the lady said everything gets sold quickly, and she sounded honest.

Tbh, I'm not familiar with any of these brands, so wondering how is the quality, do they last more than a generic street brand shoe? I just don't wanna pay high price if the quality isn't there.

I know lot of Italian luxury brands make expensive junk and wanna avoid that.

ps, I read about Common Projects and other brands which are often recommended for top quality, but don't like that simple design.

On the other side, there are really beautiful sneakers in this shop, that suit my taste.

thanks

Hey everyone

I really like these trousers from Uniqlo (love the fit and the pleat) but I am 191cm and every leg size is no bigger than 31inches! Any idea where I could get a similar style with a longer leg? Thanks!

I wore my ACBC sneakers for three days in a row and the outer part of my foot has been numb for just as long. Looks like some nerves got pressed and damaged.

I’m a lifelong ASICS, Reebok and Adidas wearer.
