Don't let the tailor touch the shoulders, just extend the cuff as much as possible and make sure the tailor has worked with leather before or else you are just asking for it to be butchered.

This.

Tbh though, I don't believe you have enough material to make the sleeves work. Interested to see the attempt though.

I would just pull up the sleeves when you rock it. With that said, the shoulders look a bit too big :nerd:

I may be tempted to turn that leather jacket into a vest. Assuming you got it for cheap and all.

rfx45 · Feb 9, 2015

He got it for free.

pinoy732 · Feb 9, 2015

Don't do the vest.

Please god don't do the vest.

Remove the sleeves

Buy a Levis trucker jean jacket

Remove the jean jacket sleeves

Attach the leather sleeves on the jeans jacket (now jeans vest)

Attach jeans sleeves on leather jacket (now leather vest)

Or just wear the leather jacket under a sleeveless jean jacket if you're a triple h fan.

I have a pair of the 25s also. They are definitely pretty skinny but also are 2% elastane so there's a lot of give. I went tts but would not have had a problem going 1 down.

There was a blueish pair on nordstroms for like 60% off for like $85 a few weeks ago. There might be sizes left. its a good price to cop

Not fashion related per se, but I think art has a connection to it. Just want to share the pictures I took at a local museum: http://www.wisith.com/blog/a-visit-to-lacma

Ordering my first pair of raw denim + good quality jeans this week. Anyone that's 5'6" or in that area have any fit pics? I like looking at a lot of comparisons

is this the U-neck? how would you compare the length to the reg crew?

I just recieved my first pair of Levi's 511 trousers. Fit is excellent. I got the dark gray color. There's one issue, they feel like cheap plastic. I wore them around the house and they wrinkle so bad, especially behind the knee. It's like the marks from wearing raw denim for yrs. I tried ironing them and the wrinkles don't come out all the way. The pants just don't feel like cotton.

Is this just this one color? Do I need to wash a few times? How do I get these things to feel like normal soft cotton?

With wear they should get softer.

Note that it's going to take a lot of wears.

I want a pair of cargos, but can't really find anything that would fit me right. My favorite fit right now is Gap 1969 skinny (frail boy life), any suggestions?

I've mentioned before that I love my Levi's commuter cargos from macy's. They fit slim and have some stretch. Only thing is they have big cuffs and reflective 3m seams when you cuff the leg.

if these are the hybrid trousers you're talking about, all 3 pairs that I've had got messed up after one wash. Streaks and fades all over the place, and I don't mean like the ones you get on raw denim :lol:

had to dump them at the homeless shelter.

LeBron James is Producing the First Ever NBA Fashion Show

If you didn't know from watching television, reading this magazine, or generally opening your eyes, NBA players are really into style. They've got a unique way of dressing and I'm gonna go ahead and say that they put all other sports to shame in the fashion department. So it shouldn't be too surprising to any of us that there will now be an NBA fashion show—the NBA All-Star All-Style show, to be exact. And who better to produce the whole thing than King James?

This isn't going to be like your run-of-the-mill NYFW catwalk, though. This'll be a competition of three rounds—boardroom attire, what to wear on a night out, and what to wear to the game. NBA favorites like James Harden, Chandler Parsons, and Klay Thompson will walk the runway along with a supermodel dream team (think Chanel Iman, Erin Heatherton, etc).

After each round, an esteemed panel of judges including our own style editor Will Welch, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, designer John Elliot, and WNBA star Elena Delle Donne will decide who advances. Oh, and of course, Shaq is the emcee. It all goes down on your TV this Saturday, February 14 at 6:30 P.M. ET.

Question: I like the cut of Docker's Alpha Khaki's but I prefer the feel of Uniqlo slim fit chinos. Anyone know a happy medium?
