Loafer socks, b.
Low top Chucks will work and so will other low profile joints like GATs and Sambas.

They are, it makes dropping $2K a little easier to swallow lol. But as Adrian has mentioned the amount of detail and work that goes into even getting measured for a bespoke suit, not to mention the making of it, helps justify the price. It's not something that I can go get done whenever I want as I'm an educator but have been able to afford a few pieces from them thankfully.
If you're by a Uniqlo checkout their loafer socks, 3 for $9.

I'm not I wish I was though. I will be stuck buying online and returnign stuff with them. I was actually on the site last night and saw some things I liked.
Are drinks complementary? Looks like they got a full bar up in there from looking at their website.

I don't drink *kanye shrug* but that is the intention of the bar if you think about it.

Im in need of some help. One of my boy's is getting married June 30th and his evening wedding is a black tie affair. I don't own a tux so I was planning on using this opportunity on buying a nice tux. My dilimia is that the wedding date is only 18 days away.
So I was considering going to the Bonobos fit shop here in DC to get fitted for a tux as they have free 2 day shipping after they take mymeasurements. Any suggestion on Bonobos or tuxedos in general? Or having any suggestion on better places to go to purchase a tux?

THANKS!!! Great price and there is one in D.C. as well.
Have you had any experience with Suit Supply? I'm TOTALLY ignorant when it comes to tuxedos so with that said is the one in that picture pretty stylish in regards to tuxedo styles?

DC suit supply is very good. staff was knowledgable and management was on point.
however, i ultimately returned the suit ($700 Sienna) because the tailoring costs were going to be $100+ (shoulder alterations) and i figured it'd easier to check out one of the MTM options around the area.

I don't think there's a DC store but they do free shipping. Takes about a day or two and arrives in the box freaking hanging. Expect tombstone shaped box at your front door.
I personally have one suit from them (copped from when they had an outlet open for a short period of time). I thoroughly enjoy them. For the price point, you won't find an OTR suit that will be better.
As for styling, peak lapel, one button, with jetted (no flaps) pockets is quite classic. A notch lapel or two button tuxedo would be tacky. Basically, if I were in your situation, I would definitely cop this exact one.
EDIT:
Yep, you money famb

Steez would rather see you spend more money on this. But steez don't know ish about suits

Back on track: SS's in house tailoring is pretty cheap (at least in comparison to spots I've been to). Definitely take advantage of that.

I have the same suit as Adrian and have had stuff altered at SS. Only suggestion would be since it could very well require more than just a simple hem or taper, that you should go with at least one week of time to do it. I had my jacket which had to be let out and the turn around (SoHo) was 1 week.

I used to love it for some reason. I even messed with the brand when it was Structure. I remember going there when the chick I was seeing liked that whole white tee and stonewashed jeans look they were rocking in I Need a Girl video.
I think I owned every single color of the 1MX shirt.
In da red, b.

I found some old pics of me over the weekend. 4X white tees were in abundance. It was hilarious to look at. Had the braids and everything

it looks like some instagram model's failed attempt at photoshopping her waist.

This whole IG thing is funny to me. I just follow interesting folks and keep it positive. I cringe at all the childish stuff going on there.
