Mr.Grayson - I have got to agree with you -It doesn`t help that the length seems a little off to my eye.

Somehow -the penny loafers seem to have taken on the appearance- of slippers in that particular photograph- they just don`t seem to be -I don`t know- chunky or robust enough to be worn with denim- yet I have worn some waxy leather brown Sebagos with levi 505`s and hugo boss orange label HB1`s and been pleased with the effect.

(Fucking hell-steady on cheeky- that was nearly some meaningful discussion -about clothing matters- It must be later than I thought.)

Horace - maybe you have hit the nail on the head-the jeans are either not long enough or not short enough-they are at a height which is a compromise between the 2- and as most peole know- a compromise is neither one thing or the other and the end result is unsatisfactory.

I feel like this about most of my dealings with people you know- I am not good at compromising-I would personally either give in gracefully about something I disagree with and let the other person have their own way-or If it is something I strongly believe in-give no quarter untill I get my own way fully- hell for Mrs. Monkey I know.

Leave it to Brooks Brothers to turn jeans into slacks.

I guess I don't think them that bad.  Though I just realized that I must be getting fat because I went to put on one of my most expensive bespoke suits that I hadn't worn in probably a year, and it didn't fit right.  Back to the ol' gymnasium for me.  Either that or I'll have to invest in the ol' M1 Bills.

those would look charming with a sequined rodeo shirt. Bespoke of course, rawr.
