RAWscore - the hit or miss fit and combo space

[sabergirl]

I personally like my sleeves long, and I don't really notice it on other people, unless the shirt or jacket is obviously too large in other ways. Also, this denim on denim combo works for me, cuz of the different shades.

@Chris:

I'd just roll up the sleeves.

That's what i would do…

That's what I do do, most of the time.

What I always do with denim shirts for some reason. No other way to wear them AFAIK :o

@el:

You're both right, of course, the arms are too long. But I love the colour and the weight and, well, everything else. Don't know any alternative shirts like this one. And I don't like buttoning long arms as I've got a thing about weird arm-stacks. Considered a medieval rack but I have my 86 to think of too.

How much compromising is too much? How do you all decide when, however much you want an item to work, it just doesn't?

I had the same shirt delivered on Tuesday and had the same dilemma for about 5 minutes.  Its an amazing shirt and looks great in your pictures.

Thanks. To be honest, I hadn't thought about the arms until I posted it on here. Kind of shirt doublethink. I simultaneously knew they were a bit long but also knew the shirt was just right.

I was in the same boat with this exact shirt and just sold the damn thing. I hate having to cuff or roll sleeves out of necessity–for pleasure or a different look option, I am fine with it.

Maybe  mrs snowy will surprise u if your a good snowman.

Hahahhahahaha, it's actually too small for me as I'm a fat bastard but the measurements and material stretch where it looks half decent open. If I come across an XL in the 2nd hand market I'm all over it

This is a L by the way

Oh & thanks for the kind word folks. Now put on your critical eye & tell me something bout my shirt being tucked all jacked or my work I'd throwing things off

[Clint_D]

Killing it as usual, monday.  What glasses are those?  Did you ever get the clear Dita's Insiders to work for you?

[Chris]

That shirt tuck is kinda jacked, since you mentioned it.

[spitfiredealer]

Yep shirt looks sloppy tucked like that.

[rocket]

getting the shirt out and not to look like if someone just stole your toy, would help… 

[el padre]

OK, here's a bit of a stripefest for you.  Thoughts?

[spitfiredealer]

would look better with just a plain white tee under it

[pillowPANTS]

I agree. I dont like patterns to be mixed

[Chris]

What are the boots?
