Re: Ivy League style for today
Y'all too kind.
I think "Ivy perfection" may be taking it too far, Woof, but I'll gladly take the compliment.
If I were to take inventory, I have more legit 3-button sacks than 3/2. I think... Well, at least in tweeds and cool weather jackets. I've got a slight torso, so I really think slimmer lapels and a 3-button stance help a bit. Again, all depends on the jacket.

Nice outfit WM. I especially like the colour and cut of those moleskins.

Re: Ivy League style for today
Thanks men. I'll say this about the moleskins, they don't hold a crease worth a damn. Nature of the fabric I guess. But these are some of the softest, most comfortable cold weather pants I own. More comfortable than the OC's flannels. A possible point of interest to some is the fact that I did not put these under the knife for any sort of taper. The leg openings measure a full 9" across. Just fine for winter trousers worn with some big fat bastards.

Re: Ivy League style for today
And doing it quite well!
Sid, I don't have large feet. Those shoes are a US 8.5. Had I tapered these down to my usual 7.5 - 7.75" hem, they would look pretty ridiculous with a larger lace up shoe. They are a pretty generous cut from top to bottom. I should get a profile pic to really show the cut a bit better.

Worried Man, fantastic look. This is exactly the kind of jacket that I'm after. What is it if you don't me asking?

Great stuff guys! I need more shetlands in my life.
Jack, are they recent Uniqlo chinos? They look good, not too slim and a decent enough rise for the price.

Re: Ivy League style for today
The sweater is 'salmon' WM..! Uncle Ian it's a size 1, i'm a 37/38 chest and it fits pretty well. Was expecting to be caught out with a bid in the last few seconds like usual but happy to claim that victory! Martyn - pretty sure I bought them in October, they should still be in stock if you fancy a pair
