Is that a popover? Fits well. Not a bad collar roll either.

You are supposed to say "but that roll!"

It is a pop over, its beefy too...

 

[Pauly Chase]

What's a pop over?

Got more fun socks on the way. This time in skull and camo mottifs

Why not pullover?

 

[Darkside]

That's a popover. I like how they look. Just not sure if I like them on me yet.

 

[Grand Potentate]

Popovers suck

 

[Pauly Chase]

Oh me no like. Popover = polo dress shirt.

 

[Arnathor]

Pauly Chase , you swoll?

Why you hating on me lately?

 

[Russell Street]

GTFO. The thing I noticed with my Lean Garments one was that you didn't have the placket bowing out between buttons down around the belly. It's really a more secure feel.

Hitting the gym today. Need to squat less. Busted a pocket seam yesterday on one of my Zanella pants at work.

Why you hating on me lately?

Not hating. Generally don't like fusion items. If I wear polos, I prefer short sleeve versions.

Kamakura!

Get the historians in here. My understanding is that olde-tyme shirts were basically night shirts and (seeing all the extra work a poor hand-stitcher would need to do for a full-length placket) most everything was popover style. So it's like ancient retro.

Is that Kamakura New York slim fit? Are there rear darts?

 

[Arnathor]

Sheeeeet Russell Street dropping knowledge on you dandies.

 

[Leitmotif]

Russell Street should have a different title. DW's clothing historian or something similar.

 

[Russell Street]

I may be wrong. I'm asking for validation.
See the dang photo right at the top of the wikipedia entry for "shirt."

[Pauly Chase]

Kamakura I like.

So Leitmotif vintage thirst? Gianni is that you?

I need to buy some ties, but I don't know where to start.

No dandy here. I am ninja. Don't get it twisted.

 

[Arnathor]

YOU JAPANESE RIGHT!?

 

[Pauly Chase]

Shame on you! That's external enemy.

 

[Journeyman]

You are supposed to say "but that roll!"

Dat roll, tho.

 

[Darkside]

=(

 

[Leitmotif]

You asked for it. I guess two weeks ago it was me, now its your turn.

 

[Journeyman]

Darkside - Did you buy it?

I'm afraid that I've got to agree with Rambo - that colour and pattern just don't suit the A-1 style jacket, to my mind.

Impulse buy. Why do I ever trust my own judgment?

Don't be afraid. Let the hatred flow through you.

What's the return policy?

60 lin 40 cot garb waistcoat with subtle stripes on light beige back:

The hem sits a full inch above my waist, GQ garbage.

 

[Darkside]

What's the return policy?

I'll be out about $15 total if (when) I return it. It was a low risk/ low reward venture.

Here is a consolation prize for wasting your guys' time. Part of my revamped tie collection. The brown pindot just came in yesterday.

Just because we all hated your idea doesn't mean you shouldn't ask. If you don't ask then you end up wearing things like that abomination outside the house. And then where would you be? Fucked, that's where.

 

[fxh]

Russell Street is right.
All shirts were originally pop overs. And they were considered underwear until relatively recently.

 

[Pauly Chase]

Dropping that knowledge
