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&...9,r:1,s:0,i:74 - An example

I think denim jackets are always made to be a little shorter so its fine.

Really like them but just dont know if they would go with chinos or jeans.

Quite like them myself, can see them going with chinos (eg stone) and some jeans (depending on the wash etc.)

They are nice because they are really broguing but, they sound a little bit golden or suntanned - cheap. (I'm not sure about this word ????)

Too much broguing, they look cheap somehow.

Think I'm the only one who prefers to wear hoodies, jeans etc. not in a chavvy way but just to not look like a bender.

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.

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.

I have really thin legs, so anything that's much above a 16 tends to look too big, in fact, I have a couple pairs of trousers that are 15 and a half which are nice.

I prefer 3 over 2, one becase I'm quite a big fan of mod/ivy styled stuff, and most importantly I have a long torso, and a 3 button balances it out better imo, where as a 2 button leaves me looking a bit out of proportion, would probably err toward a soft roll for the versatility though.

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.

Anyone have any experience with asos skinny / super skinny jeans

Are the super skinny jeans really tight like the topman spray on jeans, or are they more like topman stretch skinny ?

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.
