Where to buy men’s jewelry?

my outfits have been feeling bland as I usually just wear black and dark grey and been wanting to look into accessories. Anyone know some good places online where i can find some good pieces at a reasonable price? Mainly rings and chains.

Manly T-shirt clothing review

This is a dishonest company. Their clothing does not look anything like it does online. If you try to initiate a return, they run you around, hoping you will walk away and give up. Please do not make the mistake of ordering from this company—you will regret it!

Coat to wear over colorful sweaters and cardigans?

I love sweater weather, but there comes a point where a proper coat is simply necessary to wear.

I just don't have a coat to wear over colorful/patterned/characterful sweaters, and especially cardigans. It can feel a little silly to wear my black winter coats over a bulky light blue button down cardigan that shows just under the coat.

It feels like I want a mid-long coat that's long enough to cover somewhat oversized sweaters without being a hyper formal long coat.

I'm just looking for suggestions as I'm in the early stages of sort of renewing my wardrobe and of all my clothing, coats are something I've gotten for function over style.

To add somewhat specific questions -

Does a knit coat over a knit sweater look fine, or a contrasting material?

Does a button down coat over a button down cardigan look off? I'm thinking of like the coat being open and the cardigan closed and it's difficult to picture.

Woven in Europe but made in China - Spier and Mackay?

I have noticed with S&M that their sports jackets, overcoats and suits are woven in Italy and England such as Lanificio di pray and Abraham Moon, but made in China. I have been health conscious lately and try to avoid China made due to their textile standards regarding chemical treatment etc. but also understand they need to make profit. Does anyone know how much of work for an item is done in China? Is it just stitching and packaging, or is it also dyeing and other treatments? They have this nice wool Balcamaan coat that is Woven by Abraham Moon and made in China. I am wondering if the wool overcoat has gone through entire process of cleaning and dyeing of wool before stitching and packaging in England and then shipped to China? Any insight would be appreciated.

Loafers

I'm thinking about buying loafers and currently I am in between chocolate brushed leather loafers(code: 2DE127_055_F0002) and brushed leather loafers (code: 2DG149_055_F0002) both by Prada and I was wondering, which pair is better or is there another pair from a different brand you would recommend?

Todd Snyder-style brands with better materials?

Hey y'all,
I really dig the cut and style of a lot of Todd Snyder's shirts/sweaters. But I can't really justify their asking price for polyester blends made overseas. Looking for someone with cuts in that Med style (a la Snyder sweater polos) made from wool/cotton. Will also accept suggestions for poly blends if the price is poly blend appropriate. Thanks in advance!

Best winter parkas

I am looking for a winter parka for under $300. I live in Boston, but I don't need it to be the thickest, warmest parka out there; I run hot. I was looking at this one, I like the thickness, but reviews say the arms run short: https://www.thenorthface.com/en-us/sale/mens-sale-c317774/mens-lone-peak-triclimate-2-jacket-pNF0A833R?color=4H0&.size=L

TIA.

Cologne like Palo Santo or Thieves Oil

Hi,

I don't wear cologne but I do like the scent of Palo Santo body wash from Cremo as well as "Thieves Oil" which is an essential oil mix.

Any Cologne that has a similar scent?

style creativity's at a plateau. 🙃

hey, y'all!

I've got a passion for fashion, and it's been a good 10 years since I started to focus on the way I dress. I've tried quite a bit of style/clothing from preppy, to emo/grunge to hipster/granola. while I've gotten several wonderful compliments from friends and random people, I feel as if I'm stuck in this fashion plateau, and my creativity to build newer outfits has not improved. I like patterns and boldness and I also love minimalism and everything.

I'm open to pretty much anything within reason. can you help me?

Black or Grey Jacket?

I have purchased these two jackets but I only want to keep one of them. I like both but can't decide if i should go for a grey one or black one.. I had lots of black jackets before I don't mind having one more in black as this one looks a lot better than my old jackets. But at the same time, I loved grey as well and don't mind trying something new this time but I don't know if its like an odd colour in general for jackets given that this jacket is kinda shiny..

Black

Grey

Can men wear leg warmers?

I have been fascinated by leg warmers recently but I am curious if leg warmers are only for women. In a case, I guess I am asking if it is still seen as masculine if a man wears leg warmers.

How do I dress?

Hi, im 24M and have had 0 fashion sense my entire life. I have never really cared about how I dress and would say 99% of the time, I'm either in sweatpants/baggy hoodie or a tank top and basketball shorts. So with that, I would like to learn how to dress better and have a few questions.

  1. Is there a guide to "rules" in dressing? Or is there a way to just know what pairs with what?
  2. What makes certain styles or pieces of clothing "fashionable"/"trendy"?
  3. More specifically on the rules, why do certain colors not pair well with each other? Does matching apply to textures as well? If so, why do some textures go well vs not?
  4. This one is specific to me, but if i had red suede shoes, what are some options to go with it, assuming I had a limitless wardrobe.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: the link to the shoes https://www.amazon.com/adidas-Stan-Smith-Captain-Shoes/dp/B0BSJ1VXW4

Men's warehouse online return after wearing it

Guys - bought a suit 3 weeks ago and turns out it's fitted and looks good but just not comfortable after 2 hours of wear. My mistake! Can I return it- it's clean but tags are removed which I still have in my waste bin. Should I dry clean or just send back as-is through their online process? Thanks

Looking for a Discontinued Peak Performance Gore-Tex Jacket (Not Outdoorsy)

Hi all,

I’m searching for a specific Peak Performance jacket that seems to be discontinued. It was made with Gore-Tex but had a very elegant, tailored look—not at all outdoorsy. It was designed more for urban or professional settings than outdoor activities.

It reminded me of their Coach Jacket, but it was sleeker and made with Gore-Tex. If anyone remembers this jacket, knows the model name, or has seen one for sale, I’d really appreciate any tips!

I’ve already checked Peak Performance’s website and outlets, but no luck. If you’ve spotted it on secondhand platforms like Vinted or eBay or know of a store that might still have stock, please let me know.

Thanks so much for your help!

Looking for more fun clothes?

There's like a cool cardigan I saw today that is designed to look like moth wings, but it was very much geared towards women (cut and sizing) and also from some knockoff sight

Are there any good clothing brands that make stuff that men can wear and are more "fun" looking? Or even more androgynous looks too

How do you decide to go with custom, bespoke tailors?

I'm looking at refreshing my wardrobe a bit for work (mostly Brooks Brothers), and looking at price points these days and custom tailors in my area, it's not that much more expensive to go custom. Obviously you can go as expensive as you want, but for the "basics" there isn't that much of a price increase. Am I missing something or are retailers like Brooks Brothers really not good value anymore? A lot of my wardrobe is 5-10 years old, and I don't get the sense newer products will hold up as well.

The tailors I was looking at all have great reviews, obviously longer turnaround times, but I'm not in a rush. It seems like such an added benefit to get pieces sized specifically for me (vs tailoring things off the shelf).
