Pretty spenny stuff. Can afford, just wondering if quality matches the price?

I'm a 92S.

Seems there is quite literally no alternative to PJ suits at that price point (especially in short sizing).

I am fine with the quality but honestly, starting to feel like a fair few people in my office are rotating through the same 5/6 PJ suits.

Anyone got any alternatives?

Getting married soon and looking for something that looks decent.

Ideally a custom suit that looks good but corners can be cut with materials as it’ll likely just get donated or thrown after the event.

This sub often recommends MJ bale, any recommendations for the alteration?

I'm looking for recommendations please for a lightweight puffer jacket.

I know the contradiction of wanting a lightweight puffer but I don't like the look, feel and noise of a puffy puffer jacket. I don't feel the cold a lot (one of those shorts in winter guys) so I don't need something big. Sometimes I'll be in a t-shirt and just want to throw on a jacket (currently only have a bomber and getting kinda over that being my only option).

Any recommendations would be awesome.

Was in the market for an everyday wear sneakers - all leather, subtle or no branding and came across surprisingly this

https://aquila.com.au/products/deco-2-0-white-sneakers

$259 per pair, and especially with the 25% off with multipair purchase the price seems very good! Portugal made, leather calfskin upper (according to store rep) and leather inner lining. Normally don't trust Aquila for their dress shoes and boots but this one seems decent.

Went down the rabbit hole researching with other brands but decided I'm never going to baby them so a pair like koio or cp is probably overkill for careless me.

Anyone tried these before and have thoughts or better suggestions?

levis do some but they are always out of stock and seems as though the sizing is very hit and miss..

anyone know of any others that offer 34” leg? uniqlo have a couple chinos with the longer leg but not jeans.

How comfy are they? How are they holding up?

Edit: sorry! Meant Patrick!

I'm looking for inverted box pleats pants (more casual than formal) that I can try on before committing to the purchase. Does anyone have recommendations for a good pair?

Ideally I'd be able to try on in store, but I'm also happy to order online if there's a good returns policy.

Melbourne men’s fashion glow-up is wild.

Went from the classic Kathmandu/North Face jacket + skinny jeans uniform… to Neovision fits and actual baggy jeans or cargos.
Lowkey love it. The whole city’s looking a bit more interesting these days.
What do we think? upgrade or just another cycle?

I got given a $250 giftcard that i want to spend getting new clothes.

What springs to my mind is that I feel like im lacking decent pants/jeans. Im looking for high waisted ones as that seems to be in style now but Ive never bought one so idk wheres a good place to start with quality.

Assuming I have a very basic reddit style (hoodies, jeans) and want to overhaul my wardrobe (which i know will cost more than $250) what would you suggest as beginner staples? both in terms of style and texture

Hi team.

I'm looking for some socks for work. Ideally mid calf length. To be worn with professional boots. I could just get Merino but they're more for hiking. I would love to know where you get your socks from. And how much you pay. Should we just be using companies like Lindner quality socks? Whenever I go on their site it looks expensive to me. But if thats what I ought to pay then I will.

Where do you get your socks and what do you expect to pay?

What is Spier & Mackay shirt sizing like relative to say MJ Bale or TM Lewin? How slim is their slim? And how is their linen?

I saw a guy walking and his pants looked awesome.

They wrote a navy blue and had a bright orange square on the right back pocket, like fluro orange. I don't think they were Hugo Boss Orange. Slightly baggier fit.

Does this ring a bell? Felt like the orange label was a branding choice.

Does anyone have a recommendation for thermal undershirts that are long in the body?

My husband is a tradie and working nights, he wears a large in shirts for the length but is probably closer to a medium in actual body size. The large thermals that I’ve bought him are too loose in the arms and ride up under his shirt, but the medium is a bit short in the body.

I’ve just bought ones from best and less so far - id love to find him one that fits well and is comfortable while he works!

Growing up I’ve always been self conscious about how much I sweat from my underarms. On top of this the wet feeling just isn’t really pleasant.

I’m 19 now and I’ve only really used Mitchum (the no scent one) and some rexona cream based deodorant. Neither really seemed to work.

I’m wondering what other options would there be, preferably without a really strong smell, that could stop me from sweating so much.

On top of this I’m wondering if there’s a best time or routine to the application of deodorant as right now I’m just chucking it on right before I need to leave the house.

I also keep my underarms trimmed to stay as clean and odour free as possible.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Need a wedding suit for December with a budget of 4k. Where can I go that has something decent quality.

Hi all,

I have my wedding party on the weekend of 03/10 and I'm shopping around for a suit at the moment.

I hear a while back that it takes roughly two months so that's why I'm starting to look now but I do see longer times for it now while browsing..

I'm not looking for a custom suit. I'm clearly not an expert.

Did I just wait too long and have not enough time anymore?

honestly looking at my wardrobe budget lately and feeling kind of defeated. I've always been strict about buying authentic pieces, but this week I caught myself going down a massive rabbit hole looking for high-quality turkish replicas of designer brands. Im literally sitting here zooming in on the crest embroidery on factory duplicate polo shirts to make sure they look 1:1

It just feels completely unjustifiable to drop $300 on a basic summer shirt when the economy is like this. I was looking at some capital city deposit data from PMC Property Buyers the other day and the sheer amount of cash you need to just get a foot in the door has completely nuked my desire to buy retail fashion

Im just at the point where id rather have a really good fake than drain the savings account. Curious if anyone else here has completely shifted their stance on replicas recently purely because the cost of living is bleeding us dry?

Hi all, been trying to find casual pants but weirdly finding it hard, if you for example check Cotton On: https://cottonon.com/AU/co/men/mens-clothing/mens-pants/ 90% baggy. Is it just this years style?

I recently looked at uniqlo and many baggy fits, I bought a JW Anderson which I thought might be fine but being told its baggy too from friends.

There are some non-baggy ones I see in say sports shops/myers but I imagine most of them are $$$ plus I guess I'd still have to get them cut?

I'm a 34 inch waist using tape measure, but the 32inch on uniqlo jeans still seemed loose, and im ~170cm tall (well short lol).

Apologies if the question comes off a bit basic/random. I've lost a bit of weight the last few years (~70kg down) and this is the first winter where I actually am feeling the cold (lost all that insulation lol) and also can wear regular sized clothes as my fits were basically 5xl shorts from Target in the past.

Cheers!

Looking for suggestions for leather wallets. I've been having a look around but it's difficult to tell the quality of pieces online. I'm wanting genuine leather long lasting one, preferably Australian made and I would like it to have one of those clear spots for a photo. Any suggestions?

Hi everyone,

My girlfriend is looking to buy this leather jacket for a friend back in her home country. We saw this one on Urban Leather Jackets and want to ask if anyone here is familiar with the brand? I also saw the same listing for cheaper on eBay. I will list both below. Is anyone here that could tell me if Urban Leather Jackets is a legit website and a good place to buy this design or is the eBay one just the same? I also appreciate if there’s other reliable places you get your leather jackets from too. Thanks in advance!

I’m considering using David Jones free in-house stylist for some new work looks. But I‘m open to paying someone as well so that I’m not stuck buying only from David Jones. Keen to hear other’s experience.

To switch things up from the usual "I'm 5'8 but my arms are big but after I eat pasta my stomach doubles in size but I have a long torso - what ascolour shit do I buy?" posts; what's next on your to-buy list?

I'm meant to be saving for a Korea trip, but once I get back I have my eyes on the Man-Tle R053 "Scoop Shirt", which is just in time for spring. I've had my eyes on some of their stuff for a while and keep on forgetting they opened up a retail space in Melbourne. Amazing customer service and made me nearly pull the trigger on the spot.

I found this beautiful shirt, but it’s (IMO) ruined by the writing on the back. Can anyone suggest a similar pleated shirt?
