disclaimer: i am in no way making advances
do you wear an undershirt with these?? are you a particularly hairy-chested guy? i've steered away from this variety mostly owing to the fact that i have near Thomas Magnum levels of chest hair.
No undershirt. I am no magnum PI... plus I tend to keep chest somewhat groomed (ie not shaven... not au natural... just take a 2 guard to it on occasion.)I definitely think this look works better when there aren't squirrels climbing your neck.disclaimer: i am in no way making advancesdo you wear an undershirt with these?? are you a particularly hairy-chested guy? i've steered away from this variety mostly owing to the fact that i have near Thomas Magnum levels of chest hair.
Completely agree.Unfortunately I don't have great advice on this one....hopefully others can chime in.I have a relatively cheap sport coat that I like from H&M ($70) that has a nice slim cut and skinny lapels, but it's more appropriate for nights on the town and not really days in the office.Got some good advice last time, so I am back for more.
Went out over the weekend and purchased shirts/ties/dress pants for the new job. Now I am looking to add some versitle sport coats. The majority of pants I got were black/dark grey. What should I be looking for?
I'm personally a believer of, if you're going to wear a sport coat than pair it with nice jeans when out on the town. I think sport coats paired with dress slacks in a business setting comes off as "old guy". If you need to wear a jacket than just step it up a notch and go with the full matching suit.
I'd say without exaggeration that I wear a white, black or grey V Neck short sleeve shirt with dark jeans about 70% of the time. Very simple / classic. I've found that the Banana Republic Vnecks have a great cut to them, hold up well to washing (don't fade, shrink, etc), and can be had on sale for a great price regularly. Footwear-wise i've found a pair of New Balance that I have fallen in love with. Black cloth, low slung, very clean simple lines. Very similar in cut to a puma racing style shoe but very simple/classic. Works great for going out in even moderately upscale environments with the right jeans/shirt. Big fan. Will post the exact model after lunch. Ordered two pairs. Will probably order another one or two while they're available.Solid look, but best to always avoid light jeans. Dark jeans are better. If want to go lighter, get a solid pair of grey jeans.With summer approaching, I think that I'd like to go with a simple understated look.
gray v-neck tshirt to go with some light jeans. :flex:
Ladies like this look, right?
I got a heather gray and a black Alfani v-neck shirt on sale for last week ($17 for the pair), and wore the black one with dark low-rise jeans and chucks on Sunday. Felt good.
Good look overall. Fan of those plain BR t-shirts. Great quality and fit. The shirt is soft and feels good on your skin....They do have different styles of their shirts though and some fit/feel much different then others. Make sure you try them on before buying. As for the New Balance kicks, I wouldn't wear them out w/ jeans unless youre doing something really casual or running errands.

yep.

I don't think I could ever be the "jeans and sport coat" guy.If it's cold, I go with a slimming sweater. But in formal situations where a sport coat/blazer is required, I'd match it with slacks and go without a tie.yep.

The v-neck sweater with a tie look is in lately whichi is another solid option.

I normally am VERY against tennis/running shoes with jeans but these look great. Probably the most bare-bones looking NB shoes I've ever seen.
Just because something has been worn for 70 years doesn't mean it's always in :style:
NOpe. the 2nd pair looks a little closer but are still WAY more brightly styled. Mine have a black N with a light white outline... and the sole is Black with a thin white stripe (vs the full white sides like those). Otherwise I guess that's somewhat close. I don't think mine have as much white on the back either. Normally I don't like all black Tennis shoes either as they tend to look like you just got off work at Perkins Restaurant... but again.. these don't look that way. I've gotten tons of compliments on them.
Agreed, with the all black shoes....tend to look like big bricks sometimes.My gf got the hookup with these as a recent b-day present which I also think are an exception...
Not sure if I'm a fan. 2nd ones are definitely better than the 1st ones. 1st ones look like golf shoes to me.

Like the look but unless you are slim a guy should never wear a sweater. That said living in Texas this isn't a comfortable look for most of the year.
Disagree on both parts...- Many of the low profile Puma shoes can look like skis. Very narrow. I'm not a big fan of Pumas- I agree that you shouldn't wear crew-neck undershirts, but many dress shirts are so thin that they more or less require an undershirt of some sort. The v-neck undershirt is the way to go, but unfortunately many guys don't manscape enough in the upper chest area to make it appealing...I'd rather see a crew neck undershirt than a Lionel Richie wig peeking out of your collar.Walton Goggins said:
No undershirts are needed nor do they look good. I think it's a USA thing since I've never seen anyone wear them outside the US. Just learn to shave or trim chest, skip the undershirt and even with a nice high quality thin dress shirt there is no reason ever you should wear an undershirt unless you like the puffy less clean and sleek look.ETA: Of course not every Puma looks good but there's many that do and much better than New Balance with jeans look. New Balance = I'm going running in jeans look.
V-neck undershirt you never see is the ticket. Unless you live / work in a climate where you never sweat a drop.J
IMO you're wrong here on several fronts.
Tend to agree here. Pumas have sorta gone by the wayside from what i've seen. I personally can't wear them as I wear a size 13 and have a wider foot than they can accommodate comfortably. IF you're a little fella they can look okay but IMO they're too small for most average to larger guys.
Got a great looking pair for Christmas a few years back and as much as I liked the look (I think they were the white Romas with bronw trim), I have to agree they were way to narrow for my feet.
Sweat still will soak through the undershirt through your dress shirt. You aren't fooling anyone with a v neck undershirt and there's no reason to wear them.
Lots of wide foot Puma's out there but if you live in a small town may be tough to get them.
man you're bringing your same debating style in here that you get knocked around for in other threads eh? I have a question... if you've sweat enough to soak THROUGH a decent tee shirt and then through a dress shirt. WHAT do you think that dress shirt would look like if you weren't wearing a Tee under it? Come on now...
Sure if you sweat a ton, it'll soak through. For most that's not a problem. What they want is protection from a little sweat. V-neck undershirt is perfect for that. But whatever works for you is cool.J
Can order here http://www.zappos.com/new-balance-classics-m373-black-whiteIcon's not steered me wrong yet. May have to add to the collection.
I'm pretty sure most of us have an internet connection
I REALLY don't like the look of the wider Pumas. Just personal taste though.
If you are sweating "just a little bit" it's because you're wearing an undershirt / dress shirt that doesn't allow your body to breathe.

Found a pair of Puma's at Marshall's of all places on sale for $20. Leather / brown with white puma on the side. I think it's a hybrid soccer shoe since there are cleats but are very short. A lot of crummy looking Puma's but you can find some really nice ones out there but to each of their own. I will say that NM link is a nice pair but in generally most the NB worn out there with jeans look pretty bad.I'm pretty sure most of us have an internet connectionI REALLY don't like the look of the wider Pumas.

What's wrong with this?
Did anyone else envision him standing with his chest puffed out and one thumb looped in each overall strap while he said this?
How many pair of jorts do you own?
If you must wear an undershirt under a white dress shirt do NOT wear a white undershirt unless you don't mind people seeing it.I can get away with not wearing an undershirt in the summer if I'm wearing a dark/opaque shirt. But if it's warm and for some reason I have no other option that to wear a white dress shirt, I'm biting the bullet and putting on a white undershirt. I don't want my nips to show through my shirt.
Nothing wrong with baggy jean shorts at or just above the knee. But, I do agree with you on the undershirt thing.
