Is that why brooks brothers did a kiel james patrick x brook brothers collaboration?

He didn't go to college because he is rich as fuck, and started a business right after PREP SCHOOL. He literally went to PREP school, and that is were he started his fashion line. Just gtfo.

Dude Asians will NEVER be prep. It's only for blacks, and whites.

>>10855282
Most of his clothes don't fit, especially pants
Colors often don't really match and he mixes pieces with very different formality

To me he looks like someone who bought stereotypical prep clothes and just randomly put them together.

>>10855551
He literally said in the nyt that his Dad was a policeman and that they weren't rich at all
And BB isn't an authority on prep

Asians fall into two categories and I don't just mean chinky asians, hypebeasts or prep. They have fuck all else.

>>10855551

Prep is never cheap familia. The colour palette Lacoste tends to have is also bordering fratcore (maybe even is fratcore), which is lighter more playful colours.

>>10862410
I bet

i'll admit i have a few polo ralph lauren items i like, a few flourescent polos and a cardigan. the big issue with their stuff is an obvious one, and it has nothing to do with the quality of their items. its the simple fact that their stuff is literally everywhere. id say its the most common brand in the world. every single store in every mall, macys, etc., and thus their clothing crosses a huge variety of people. their clothes are commonly found in marshalls, tj max, even big lots. therefore, you get a lot of scummy poor people and trailer park trash wearing ralph lauren. nasty looking indian men with flip flops and turbins wearing ralph lauren. 80 yr old grandpas wearing it. I think thats why people hate it, because its so readily available to every element of the population.

That's nice. Quit with the hopeless begging for validation. If the Ivy schools were allowed to discriminate, they would. They are schools that were built by white people, for white people.

Prep = white culture. Anyone else wearing it is trying to emulate white culture.

I'm planning on getting into prep (or menswear as someone in the thread was calling it) and here are some things I currently have in my cart on Amazon

I already have burgundy chinos and white chinos

Am I on the right track? I'm also thinking of white waxed laces for the chukkas

what would you recommend?

For the shoes,I was drawing inspiration from things like pic related

>>10872931
What brand are they?
You should never go cheap on shoes

>>10872935
Top right are Fulinken (Kind of a new brand or something as they don't have many reviews yet)

$99.90 on sale from $110

The chukkas are Aldos
$84.13 from $140

I wouldn't get the sweaters either, they look pretty low quality imo

>>10872975
>clarks

they look so low quality to me, especially the soles.

I've seen guys wear shiny leather brown chukkas and contrast the color with the pants and that was what I'm going for.

Are there any other brands?

>>10872987
Not at a ~100 dollar price point

>>10872987
Although you could try going on ebay and searching "vintage chukkas"
You can find really nice ones sometimes

>>10872956
Help him build his list

>>10872987
I would never go for regular leather chukkas, always go for suede instead. Dark brown.

If you're short on money, check out Meermin/SuitSupply. If you can afford nicer ones: Carmina, Santoni, Enzo Bonafé etc. Then there's even better ones, but I don't think there's any point in mentioning them here...

Is there any way to re-color dark brown suede shoes?

I have a pair from Moreschi that's lost some of its color, but I don't want to replace them if I can fix that.

>>10872987
I'd recommend you start by buying one thing at a time, it's not really a good idea to do the "starter pack" thing, that way you can actually get good quality stuff that will last

Saphir Renovateur, comes in three different colours. It's a pigmented suede spray, or whatever.

It's all in Swedish, but you can check out the picturs for some more details.

Guys should I rush a frat?

I just transferred to my first big university. I've been looking around at frats but none of them are really like the ones seen in the pics. Their main things just involve throwing parties, drinking, doing stupid fundraiser events, and generally living like slobs together.

I just wanna dress preppy and go boating desu

>>10846867
why would you want to dress like a frat boy from the 50s?

>>10873555
Frat isn't the same as prep

Either way I recommend doing none of them, prep is only for the rich old money and frat is for dudebros

so what's so bad about this cardigan though?

It's $56.50 so it's not exactly cheap and has a lot of good reviews.
The main reason I like it is because of the collar reaching up as it does and there's a lot of color options for dark blue

Are you absolutely dead set on a cardigan?

>>10873980
Yes, I like the look of it plus I'm in Texas, so it's not so cold during the winter to warrant a heavy coat or a lot of layers past a cardigan

>>10873976
What are you going to wear this with? In my opinion, it's too bland in color and texture. Please don't wear it like that guy is

>>10873985
Max price range?

>>10873989
Hmm true, was thinking black pants, white shoes over a sweater or cardigan

>>10873992
only a little more than $100 if it's one I really like.

>>10873995
If you're going to treat it like an overcoat which is what I assume you're saying, I'd go for something in a lighter brown color or just a lighter color in general.

A jacket like that covers a large portion of your torso and something so dark and covering so much will just appear as any other jacket by any other brand as it has no real discernible features being so dark.

You should gain a bit weight, at least aim for 29-30.

Incotex and PT01 (or PT05) have a great fit, I love my flannel trousers from PT01 - they're heavenly.

You could also check out Luxire if they have any materials you like, then just send them a pair of your best-fitting pants if you wanna go custom. Probably cheaper then both options I mentioned above.

I think the pants are a pretty ugly color and I don't like the white laces on the boots
Also I don't think a waistcoat and tie is a good idea in a casual outfit either
As long as the clothes are well fitting though your average person probably wouldn't give it a second thought

seems to be leaning a bit far into the hipster/mens fashion arena.

pants-wise I was drawing some inspiration from here.

I think it's a nice contrast of light and dark

>>10878901
Not the guy you were talking to, but generally with bright pants you want to make the rest of the outfit pretty toned down (i.e. white/blue OCBD and neutral colored sweater and brown loafers/derbies) and let the pants do the talking. Your prospective fit looks alright, but there's a little bit too much textural noise with the other items.

No, it's only for WASPs.

Frankly, the only way to pull off the prep aesthetic is to be born into the lifestyle. If you didn't go to prep school (and a proper prep school at that - not just some local parochial bullshit) you will never really look authentically preppy. You'll just be a poseur.

>>10878999
Prep can be pulled off if you have your clothes tailored and you have muscle.

>>10879024
Prep is more than just clothes, it's a subculture in its own right. The clothes themselves carry subtle yet important connotations about the wearer. If you weren't raised in the culture you couldn't possibly understand.

>>10879047
or you can flip through one issue of Free&Easy and understand everything about ivy/prep
