@simon626:

okay i just pulled my camera out and i realized why i don't use it. I don't have a memory card to put in there….i will try to get one sooooon!

I can send you one if you would like. I would rather see quality flicks from you that badly. Also, a little critique on this fit:

1. That jacket is way too big for you and looks bizarre with such tight jeans.
2. The shirt is too big with the tight jeans.
3. Tight jeans and chunky sneakers like the Gibson Dunk you are wearing do not got together well.
4. The fit just looks sloppy overall.

Resolutions
1. Get a pair of bootcut jeans or straight leg.
2. Get some boots.
3. Ditch the jacket/ shirt and switch the shoes with some vans.

I am no expert at all and have fallen victim to similar things as well. I just figured you were looking for some advice so here it is. Hope you don't take it personally.  :-\

You left out one option: have the shirt tailored. I occassionally have my work shirts tailored because of my odd proportions (42inch chest, 31 inch waist). Regular sized shirts are bunchy when I tuck them into my waistband, and slim fit shirts make me look like a busty floozy.

@simon626:

wait so i can bring in old shirts to a tailor and ask them to redo it to fit?

Yes, they'll open up the sides and take it in. If it's not too big on you, it should work just fine. If the shirts are WAY too big, then it's going to look even weirder

Here's me today. Black Cyclist Jeans [SEXIH03BK - Self Edge, San Francisco] , W28, about 45 days of wear. One hot wash/tumble dry inside out. PS. "The Grand Lake Theater" is an Oakland institution !

I'm all about TMI myself.  It's cool with me, Simon !

@simon626:

how much does something such as taking a shirt in usually cost?

Depends, the Korean store by my house usually charges me 12-15 a shirt.

@DougNg:

I dunno, the more Simon posts on the topic the more I think "denim leggings"

I believe the term you are looking for is "Jeggings"…

The more we talk about this, the more the barrel of my shotgun looks tasty…

Hello fellow Iron Hearters. Here's Shubha – pics taken around Lake Merritt, the crown jewel of Oakland. Lake Merritt is Oakland's Central Park (or Golden Gate Park, if you're partial to San Francisco instead of NYC). You know me -- I'm committed to these damn SEXIH03BK (Black Cyclists), W28.

PS. In these pics, I"m standing in front of the "Oaklandish" truck. It sells t-shirts and hoodies bursting with Oakland pride. Here's the website : http://www.oaklandish.com/shop/

Looking good Turtabloid.

Yeah, and one of the reasons we are doing XX and XXXL is because I thought you were going up and not down
