What do you think of this sportcoat?

Hey, Kim dresses me and usually does a good job of it.

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

I think I'm seeing a common thread here. The guys I know only look good when they have a woman to dress them.

I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.

So borrow one, it's cheaper in the long run anyway.

I've borrowd sports coats in the past, but the problem is that my tall, skinny frame is hard to match, so I really do end up looking like I'm wearing my big brother's jacket.

What I'm concerned about is the International Council of Shopping Centers national convention in Vegas next week.

I'm not sure which is funnier, if this is a joke or if it's serious.

The International Council of Shopping Centers has regional conventions and a national convention.

Yes, international organizations can hold national conventions. I know it's complicated, but if you think long and hard on it, I'm sure it will make sense.

That's obviously a BASE jumping jacket.

Sorry--I'm going 90 mph trying to get stuff ready for the convention and checking back here periodically to see if anyone has any helpful advice. My comprehension is at about 10% right now.

My problem is that I don't have much time to set aside for shopping, particularly since all of the good stores are in Austin. I'm wondering if I might find something at the outlet malls here in town. They have all the top brands; I just don't know how affordable they are.

I don't have to dress up for work every day, so I only keep a few nice outfits around, and that causes a problem when these conventions come around. I have two sports coats (including the one I posted), one suit, and six pairs of slacks. A suit is a little over-the-top for this convention, so that leaves me with the sports coats and the slacks. That should be enough to get me by, but now that I've lost my confidence in my gray sports coat, I'm one blazer short. I just dropped $300 to replace my black dress shoes last weekend (a dance floor mishap claimed the previous pair), so I'm really not anxious to drop another $500 on a new jacket. I also have no interest in wasting $150 on a cheap jacket. So I've got four days to come up with something passable and affordable. I actually have less time, if you factor in alterations.

The hem should hit the wristbone. Read this.

I looked it up on the GQ website, and it says that most people show too much shirt sleeve and that the hem should fall about 1/2 inch below the wrist bone. Standing at the mirror, that's exactly where this jacket's sleeves reach on me. If it looks different in any of the pictures, that's only because it's really hard to take pictures of your own wrists, with your arms hanging naturally (seriously, try it if you don't believe me). The jacket also fits me perfect in the shoulders. The shoulder pads are flush with the outside edges of my shoulders, without it being too tight in the back. The overall length of the jacket reaches the tips of my thumbs, or the tops of my fingers when they're curled, just like it's supposed to.

So my sense of what fits is not as off as I was starting to believe. With that said, can anyone recommend a style of gray sports coat that they think would look good on me?

I'm just glad you are not actually giving advice on sports coats. And damn right I let Alicia pick out my clothes. I don't want to look like you and Michael.

The term "gear fag" springs to mind.

It depends on if it's a day event or a night event. I find this one to be a good all around choice. If I opt for the dress shirt and tie, rather than the mock turtle neck, I usually switch out the grips with the classier ivory ones. I used to go the nickel plated route, but now it seems like every guy at every party I go to has a nickel plated 1911, so it was starting to feel a little cliché. I noticed at a wedding a few months ago that a lot of guys are going with ankle holsters these days, but I just find that a bit too metro for my tastes. If I'm wearing jeans with the coat, I'll sometimes opt for the more casual revolver, but I think a semiautomatic is always called for in more formal settings.

WTF!!???
Is it really like that? Guns are trendy? wow, to a guy from new zealand it sounds like you are off to mafia parties or something?
Not kidding but to me that is just beyond belief that i find it very funny.

I know you guys are allowed guns but you are allowed to walk the street with concealed semi automatic pistols?
That's some crazy shit right there.

The 80's called, they want their coat back.




Actually, looks pretty good. Its not what I would personally wear, but it still looks good.

All I have to say is that when '80s sheik makes a comeback, you'd all better remember who started the trend.

As for more contemporary styles, what do you think of this suit?

Let me see if I can track down Ralph Lauren's email address so that you can write him and complain.

For wear with jeans, a nice leather duster would be a good choice. As for the side arm. I would say black with chrome accents. After all we don't want over do it.

Over long jeans are good, over long suit pants make you look unprofessional. And for god's sake, stop with the mock turtle neck. It's killin me.

I have a coat that looks identical to that except for the color and I have not worn it in 15 years. I think my wife gave me shit about it one time when she saw it in my closet. Personally, I like it.
