Awesome boot, I got the 8″ version last week. Love them

Since when are chinos with boat shoes a formal look?? I think you could just swap out the shorts for chinos and be done with it
Andrew
Hi Jimmy, Thanks for letting me know. I’m not seeing that glitch on my end, what device / os / browser are you using? I’d love to dig into it. Thanks!
Eug
Andrew, I really love the idea of the Timex Weekender. I received it a little while ago, and my only complaint was that the face was a little wider (not necessarily thicker). Any recommendations?
Devon Caldwell
Golden Fox has a very similar Moc Toe boot for about half the price and the quality seems pretty good, for anyone looking!
Jean Laplante
Thanks for the optics 🙂

You linked to the wrong Hershel bag and have the wrong price, the picture is of the little america bag, yet the price and link is the retreat
Andrew
Thank you for the heads up, not sure how those got mixed up.
Luke
Those boots are so nice! Great get up Andrew!
Ryan Patrick
thanks again for another great Getup Andrew, always enjoy these and hope I can get this stuff delivered cheaply across the pond

Loving the short sleeve henley. Will be grabbing a couple soon!
Pat
What’s wrong with chinos with a permanent crease? Do they simply dress up the look which doesn’t match this outfit or are you saying they should always be avoided?
Andrew
Yep, dresses this outfit up too much. Nothing wrong with them otherwise, just wasn’t what I was going for.

I sincerely hope the glasses are only mentioned for those who already wear them. Swear every guy I see at the coffee shop is wearing em just to look like a “hipster” which is incredibly over-rated anymore and has lost so much of it’s intended meaning. I do like the boots and the shirt, the entire combo maybe not so much, but it’s certainly time to go through the summer wardrobe and clear it out. Getting cold!
Andrew
Yep, intended either for glasses wearing folks, or for sunglasses.

FYI on these pants. I ordered them online without trying them on. These are VERY slim fit. Also, the crotch of the pants has a weird circular patch stitched into them, and there is an odd extra belt loop piece on the belt. I’m going to exchange them and try to find pants like these in another style. Overall, LOVE these posts and the looks provide some great ideas!
