    Definitely like it with the reddish pop of the Red Wings, probably with the navy jacket (really, no jacket for me because it will still be too hot here for months!).

    Andrew,
    Great job on the getups all week but I have to give you extra praise for this one! The simplicity and versatility of the grey denim with the chambray shirt allows for many combinations, which as you and Ashley Weston are always teaching us, are the base of a good wardrobe! Thinking I need to add some grey denim now…

      So glad you like it! Gray denim has been my fav go to for a couple of months I 100% reccommend getting a pair!

      • Ryan Kropp

        I am having the absolute hardest time finding gray denim that looks like the pair pictured. The ones I’m finding are all too dark to have that nice contrast.

          Did you check out the Dockers pair I linked to in the post? They’re darker on Kohl’s site than they are in real life, I own the Burma Gray and they’re a nice light gray color.

    Andrew, I’m torn between the second outfit and the final outfit in the lineup. I really like the contrast of the Thorogood boots (I have a coulpe of pairs of Danners but really want these) but the classic gray sports jacket is a nice touch as well. I just added Anson belts to my Christmas list as my top want a couple of days ago and I can’t wait to see if they end up under the tree. What a fantastic idea! Innovation in menswear is something that I am always fascinated by.

    Also, your blurb under the cologne has me howling…

    “she was actually moved…”

  • Rudy Ortiz

    Love the grey with the suede boots

  • Vincent Adultman

    I love the denim jacket look and the leather jacket look from earlier in the week. Is there a name for that kind of look? I would love to see more it.

  • Adam

    lol why is there no picture of the j crew quilted jacket?

  • Zac Silk

    Do you guys use pocket squares in your casual blazers? And if so what type of pocket square?

      • Zac Silk

        Are there any hard and fast rules to wearing pocket squares with casual blazers? I’ve got a patch pocket blazer made out of cotton. But I think a silk pocket square would look out of place.

        • http://www.primermagazine.com/ Andrew

          Yeah, I would go with something that’s not as fine / shiny as silk. Cotton, linen, etc. But I don’t think there are any hard rules on this.

    Just picked up a pair of these Chukkas..and wow.. I was expecting a good pair of boots but these are just fantastic.

      So glad they worked out!
