Attempting to manifest Summer weather 🌞
My warm weather clothing is begging to see the light of day. While it doesn’t get that hot here in SF, I still look forward go breaking out my linens and seersuckers. Maybe it’ll be a good excuse to book that tropical vacation 😏

$400 off-the-rack suit vs $1200 made-to-measure…how do they compare?
This off-the-rack suit by @acmecultum actually holds its own — high rise trousers, side tabs, clean straight drape, wide peak lapels, half-canvas construction�and 100% high-twist wool that’s lightweight enough to see through.
But is it perfect? not quite - the sleeves + trouser length needed a bit of work. However, the foundation is very solid for the price. Just a quick trip to your local tailor and you could be looking like a million bucks.
So at that point, you really have to ask — are you paying for custom… or just chasing that last 10%?
And for sizing reference: I’m 5’9” / 175cm, 157lbs / 71kg and these days I typically flex between a 36R/38R jacket and 29/30” waist trouser. Using the size guide for this particular suit, I opted for a 52A, which resulted in what you see here.
Still interested? Comment “SUIT” and I’ll send you the details for you to decide for yourself.

Japanese Dictionary of Color Combos - Ep. 2
Back with another outfit using the Japanese Dictionary of Color Combinations for inspiration (nobody asked for it, but I don’t care 😬) Who seriously comes up with these color names? Cosack? Salvia? I kinda want that job, not gonna lie.
How do you guys think I did? Did I cook? Or is this fit cooked? 🤔

MENSWEAR LESSONS: WTF is a 3/2 Roll Jacket? 🤔
A quick history lesson about the origin of a 3/2 Roll Jacket for those of you that are wondering what the purpose of that third button is or why it’s even there. It’s such a practical reason behind its existence and I actually still use this hack today when I come across three button jackets.
Before watching this video, did you know the reason?

If you say “both”… I get it. The @Bulova Super Seville makes it a tough call. Especially when one of them is the @complecto collab 😉
Tiger eye vs black dial
Texture vs minimal
Statement vs restraint
I’d probably pick both too…
but let’s get to the bottom of this.
Which one fits you best?

Why see life through rose-colored glasses when you can tailor the entire perspective? 😉
