Alex’s suede chukka game is tight.
Great tones and textures, but I can’t stand the top button buttoned with no tie. It’s a bit affected, and I think it messes up the framing of the face because it introduces a gap the eye expects to be filled. Creates an inverted triangle below the chin that makes the head appear wobbly or unstable; on open collar or tie reverses the triangle and provides a stable frame for the face. Or maybe I’m overthinking it.Layers and studs.
Similar look: Ash Studded Trainers.
How to improve this look in three steps:
- Unbutton the bottom button of the jacket so it doesn’t ruin the flow of the jacket’s quarters.
- Wear a shirt with a longer collar point so it can roll under the jacket’s collar properly rather than let the shirt collar flop on top of the jacket collar.
- Either unbutton the top button (or two) of the shirt or wear a necktie.
(Bonus: Don’t wear sneakers with tailored clothing. It’s incoherent.)
Agree with everything, except the tailored clothing/sneaker comment. GW does it well all the time.
WIWT:
Modern Tailor linen shirt, Lands’ End Oxford cloth pants, PRL (made in Italy) loafers.
I love the idea of Oxford as a summer-weight pants fabric. These are cooler than any cotton-linen pants I own, and on par with seersucker and 100% linen for breathability. If you’re reading this, Land’s End (and you’re not), please bring these back next year with more color options.
Shoulda bought these on that last sale.
