I got a pair of these shoes last year and I am honestly underwhelmed, what do you think gentlemen?

I have lost quit abit of weight and decided to get a professional photo for my social media profile

Anyone else here find it therapeutic to polish their shoes? It’s one of my favorite things to do to unwind.

Ever since dipping my toes into the waters of tweed, I've been looking for a herringbone pattern jacket in either a grey or green, or mixture of both perhaps. I would periodically rummage through eBay, looking for something that fit exactly what I wanted. I had, however, shut off all notifications to the app to avoid the temptation of impulse purchases, and passed on a lot of stuff I'd run across. Finally I found what I was looking for: Herringbone pattern, 100% pure wool, in a grey, with all measurements shown in photos, no holes, damage, or stains. But would my budget allow for it? At $22, Yes. Consider it done. Then the dirty trickster app suggested me an overcoat. Double breasted, peak lapels, 46" length, all the criteria set forth by the Gentlemans Gazette for a classic overcoat. (I fell in love with one very much like this that Sven or Raphael was wearing in one their videos.) Same grey color, correct sizes, excellent condition, 100% pure wool. $175. Hmmm. Returns accepted. I can at least try it. Both arrived today and I'm very satisfied with the quality, condition and fit of these two. I did expect some tailoring would be necessary to perfectly nail the fit, but it will not be major at all. Matter of fact I may just spritz the tweed jacket and throw it in the dryer on low for a few minutes. I can't find any brand tags on either garment, but both have tags ascertaining 100% wool shells, as well as the name Savile Row. The jacket was made in Hungary, and the overcoat in Brazil. They seem to be very high quality. If I average out the total cost between the two, I think I did pretty good. And procured them in time to be worn for the entire cold season. I am considering selling one of my camel colored wool overcoats to keep my wardrobe lean and get a little of that capital back in liquid. Threw a quick winter outfit together to see how everything fit layered up. I think some navy cavalry twill trousers would really level this up, but that's gonna have to wait. I was wearing dark brown wranglers for my day trucking, and just left those on. Hope I didn't get any crusty cow poop on my coat 🙃

I had to do it....I felt like I needed to go a little out of my comfort zone on cost( I really didn't- this was on clearance and 30% off). First time building an outfit around a watch. I have a few outfit combinations in mind... Todd Snyder: Cotton/ Silk Polo
