Brooks Bros on one of the rare occasions I dress up

My usual attire. '78 308 and keeping it and others like it running is why I'm able to visit this forum!

Here is what it looked like on me. I had to snap screenshots from the video on my cellphone to grab them (I always check out anything this expensive in video before buying, since that is the only way I can tell how it really looks from all angles...).












The 52 fit, but was too tight, but this one (the 54 pictured above, albeit blurry due to screencapture from video) fit comfortably all around.

That's a good thing as you wouldn't want to grow out of a piece like that. Bet It was hellish expensive at full price !

I hear ya. I'm in shape and have shaped muscles, but I'm fairly proportionate to my frame and I plan on keeping it that way. I guess it would be considered an athletic build versus a bodybuilder build?

True. Yeah, at 40% off I was only considering it, but then last night I saw it drop to 60% off and I got up super early to hit the store right at opening!

Not true! Certain looks are always good. Biker jackets are a classic...

Some looks do fade quick though...

60% is a seriously good saving. Most items are snapped up before you get to those kind of savings. Congrats once again on this piece, it's awesome. I even had a google when I got home to have a closer look

I couldn't believe that Belstaff panther increases the prices a lot after the new owner took over. I think he is trying to put it up to the luxury brands now. And of course, I guess they have to make it with the better quality (not cheap like in the past). And I think they should stay with their original vintage styles, not copying Rick Owens's styles and Neil Barrett's

@QC: from your excellent watches collection. So I think you should go check out the very high end and true art pieces of clothes as carol christian poell, maurizio amadei, label under construction, boris bidjan saberi, rick owens, carpe diem, guidi, incarnation, Julius, etc.... should check them out. Im pretty sure that they're much much better than the regular high-end brands that you can see and buy everywhere. Not many stores carry them unless you find the true art clothes places as atelier new your, archivesf, darklands, or a few stores around.

Carry the sofa outside so as to not disturb the slumbering ball of cuteness, and get some sun for that base tan.

I struggle to find a comfortable fit even when I try them on in the shops and the sizes seem to vary so much from brand to brand, even same brands with different styles...... so I would never risk buying on sight only..........but clearly am missing out on some fabulous shoes and boots if your collection is anything to go by.....

Crazy cool QC..... Looks absolutely fantastic but I imagine even with 60% off it would make most people's eyes wince.......
Hey Steve! Thanks for the kind words, I'm living these two pieces at the mo, but the Daytona is definitely getting the most wrist time

Loving your blue angel, looking so sweet!

The python jacket was around $10, 000 before the 60% price cut.

Then there is the only one best store in the world that you should visit, and you will meet the great owner/customers/people there for the true fashionista.
