Jackets
So, an accompaniment to my boots thread. A jackets thread. I need a new jacket to wear with jeans; brown boots, brown belt. Thinking of this one from here: VITO | Vito Blazer at ASOS
Also thinking about these nice silk handkerchiefs, one for each season (spring, summer, autumn, winter), :

I have nothing to say at the moment but wanted to be the first to reply.
after some thought I would go with a brown shade for the jacket to match your belt and shoes.Last edited by 32t; 07-20-2013 at 01:29 AM.

I like the handkerchiefs. For the jacket, keep in mind that the nontraditional single button will stand out - so unless that's part of the sell for you, you may want to find one with two buttons instead.

The army pretty much provides my dress clothes. That said, I have a custom blue, black and gray suit. One from England and 2 from Korea. The gray one is an exact duplicate of 007's from "From Russia With Love". I also have a tuxedo I had made in Bulgaria with both black and white dinner jackets.
As for the black leather outfit, that's pretty cool. If you want to look like a gay Mighty Morphin Power Ranger.MickR and carlmaloschneider like this.

get it tailored for you dont bother with off the rack anything, All my shirts are cuffed . a shirt to me doesnt feel right with out cufflinks . casual of formal. remember warhol he was the first to do the jeans with blazer look. not long ago that was cutting edge.

Carl if you don't want to look gay you could either:
1 wear something completely outlandish that only a confident man could get away with:
2 wear a disguise

Hi Carl,
I have one of these, I'm thinking this would be perfect for you, a known classic smart yet casual all at the same time the colour stone would mix and match with both jeans and trousers, I have the older vintage model in this jacket, really practical and it looks great on, and I'll guarantee this will always be fashionable but never out of fashion. a Barbour International.
