I used to be clean shaven, looks more upstanding and respectable for someone my age. Now I'm into this wonderful lady who's into beards. I'm actually making an adaptation to my aesthetic! Truly remarkable. But now in my hats, conservative wool, and unkempt beard I look like a seriously...
Here's me at Halloween in Brooklyn. Note, this was not intended to be a costume, I would have worn this on any cold day in the city. When people asked me what I was, I referenced this from SimCity 2000:
"Occasionally I idle time away by wondering what cities would be like, were they people...
While most of these aren't proper suits, I don't know if it's worth a whole new thread for these. I don't have a camera myself, so I have to rely on action shots from me on Facebook. Not exactly the best format for looking at details, but it does give some context.

Hi all, it's been forever since I posted here; I used to post as Briscoeteque but since I don't watch Law & Order anymore, and Yevgeny Zamyatin was one smartly dressed Bolshevik, I figured it was time for a name change. He also invented the dystopian novel, and I don't think it's been topped...
I am ALL about double-breasted. I like details and complexity, and there is simply more going on with double-breasted. You get twice the buttons and more striking asymmetry. Not to mention lapels! My favorite item is the double-breasted peak lapel vest. I wish I had more than one. There is...
I have a 6x3 1940's suit that is a personal favorite of mine. Black, the heaviest fabric I've ever seen in a suit. Heavier than my old modern overcoats. It's like wearing armor, it's heavy, but it makes you feel strong! Someone on these forums suggested it was a naval uniform before any...
