Nike SB Janoski, Yay or Nay?

Has somebody bought off this seller before on here, I swear I remember saying that they were legit?

Hey - What you guys think of jean jackets that are shorter than what you are wearing underneath? - http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?um=1&hl=en&rlz=1C1SKPL_enGB397&biw=1280&bih=675&tbm=isch&tbnid=9mAqHSV2XJukkM:&imgrefurl=http://ehugmag.typepad.com/ehugmag/2009/04/you-already-know-we-can-spot-a-trend-a-mile-away-this-spring-the-jean-jacket-will-rain-supreme-with-trendsetters-like-yeezy.html&docid=U2ucFCyq3yo9_M&imgurl=http://ehugmag.typepad.com/.a/6a01116849527a970c01156fd2a1a1970b-800wi&w=475&h=429&ei=uDG1T6iLM8b80QWe8un2Dw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=334&vpy=330&dur=817&hovh=213&hovw=236&tx=137&ty=134&sig=106098083590406665987&page=1&tbnh=142&tbnw=156&start=0&ndsp=22&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:0,i:74 - An example

Yeah that was me, they are legit , I went to the trouble of having them verified at 2 different opticians

Thinking of having a suit made if I like tailor who's going to alter my trousers. I'm thinking currently Navy, 3 button, notch lapels (possibly peak, not sure, leaning toward notch though), not a bum freezer, but jacket fairly short in the body, slim trousers, with little to no break in them, 16 inch hems probably, no beltloops, but side adjusters instead.

Thoughts? Ideas?

Personally I've found 16" too narrow as it doesn't quite cover the laces on my shoes I do have a preference for 2 over 3 but if I was getting 3 I'd get a soft roll 3 so it could easily button as a 2 as well.

Make sure to ask about his other bespoke work and to check the stuff out personally as his style, cut and quality might not be that great for the price. Then again it might be amazing And if possible, when it is being made ask him if he will take pictures for you and post them up on here

On a side note, found a 2 button, navy pinstripe, made in Italy, Ralph Lauren Polo suit in TK Maxx before. £300. Going to keep my eye on that and see if it gets reduced any time soon.

Hoodies and jeans are fine for bumming around the shops/pub/park/house/garden/whatever on the weekend, but what you gonna wear out to a smart bar that night? What you gonna wear to work? What you gonna wear to that garden party? To take your girlfriend out for dinner? What about your interview? Jeans and a hoodie? I would hope not.

I need some Rayban wayfarers in my life!

Far too may people buy wayfarers than can actually wear them. Unless you've got a big, square face they rarely suit.

I bought some Ray Ban Caribbean optical glasses not so long ago and now I've seen these and I wish they were around then, they'd suit my face so much better.

Where did I say I exclusively wear jeans and a hoodie It is what I feel comfortable in, obviously good brands etc. and prefer to to blazers and cardigans my gran would wear, which some have already posted. And I do own a suit so I don't look like a hobo going to interviews.

Catching up on some of the posts in this thread and alongside the good information it's hilarious!

The guy going on about there being no difference in the quality between denim brands is just brilliant, even the brands mentioned such as Dior and APC whilst they're pretty good for entry raw denim above the likes of nudie etc they don't really come close to the likes of Imperial, Iron Heart, Flat Head, Pure Blue, Samurai or Momotaro.

I know right! I also find it funny when people start on the "I am more hipster than you" by listing niche, obscure brands. Hate aside, cool tumblr btw.
