Alright lungers, I need some fashion advice

obviously not for me, cuz that would be stupid.
Get me with your best MEN's middle of the road pants that arestretchy and not wool but can be paired with a sport coat in a pinch. So like dressyish but comfy and cool. I bought him a pair that he likes that are now discontinued. Think elevated golf pants. I found some Peter Milars but they are polyester and he'd really rather they be cotton with some stretch.
And husband of sells exclusively to heterosexual males so Lululemon is out.

Does he screen people up front to ensure heterosexuality?

That could be construed as "slightly bigoted".

cities and municipalities across the US.
If I dress him like a Connecticut prep school guy or a Southern frat boy he might lose some credibility.
Also middle aged men don't look great in cropped skinny pants and loafers with no socks.
I don't make the rules.

Bonobos stretch chinos. Five different fits so you can find what you like. Great return policy. These pants + dress shirt + sport coat is my work uniform, but they can just as easily be worn w a polo. They have placket pockets and some other small details that lean a little dressier.

If you like that style pay the extra $100 for Allen Edmonds

Their quality is about as good as it gets.
If you want to go cheaper, you can often find Cole Haan or Florsheim for closer to $100, they aren't as nice but look decent

Shape is fine, they don't look bad. I don't wear black so I'd pass, but I have a pair of brown penny loafers that look a lot like that that I wear pretty often. That isn't a great price point for glued soles though, for another $100 you can get welted soles, or the same product from Cole Haan for $100 less.

He doesn't wear black typically either but I talked him into
Sep 10, 2021, 11:26 AM
|

a bright blue sport coat that looked sharp with black pants, so needed a pair of shoes for that one outfit.
He has a giant collection of brown/walnut/mahogony whatever you want to call it dress shoes but navy, khaki and walnut/camel/whatever you want to call that brown has gotten boring.
I'm seeing a lot of black shoes with lighter/brown bottoms on high end stuff so it's trickling down to the masses. Mark my words, you'll be seeing more black dress shoes.

Cuff makes them appear a little more formal, but they're basically casual. I've used them with a jacket in a pinch.

with another man???
I mean, women are all delicate and pink and smell like Bath and Body Works. A man is big, burly, hairy, dirty, and would require a struggle. This is peak manliness.

I had a chance to pluck on Flea's signature active Jazz bass a while back and I was wowed. Fender has always carried the flag of passive basses but this one was sweet. It's basically an Ernie Ball Music Man single humbucker set up with the thin Jazz neck. Definitely one of the few signature basses that would be worth the money, more times than not sig editions are more style than substance but this one was a player.

Sep 10, 2021, 11:46 AM

I have nice suits for funerals, weddings, church. Everything else is verrry relaxed casual, jeans or hiking/outdoor pants. Nothing in-between.
I don't do the business casual stuff with sportcoat, slacks and no-tie. Never have, never will. Not a comfort zone for me. If I have to go to an event requiring that, I won't.
