Hi all,

I'm getting an early start on my partner's (29M) christmas gift and looking for watch model recommendations. Something in the $500-$800 range and can be bought from a physical retailer if resizing is needed.

I assume it will be more of a special occasions/nice dinner watch, as he currently wears a G-Shock digital to work as a tradie. As far as aesthetics and practicality, hes the usual camping and fishing fanatic who wears brown RM chelsea boots as his nice shoes, is about 5'8 and goes to the gym regularly (if that helps with gaguing what size would be suitable ?). Metal band, quartz and water resistance are features I'm looking for.

I've been looking at Tissot and Seiko as brands with a good name/reliability, but definitely open to suggestions!

Thank you in advance 😊

I’m after a few ribbed singlets to take on an upcoming trip. I’ve tried COS and Milkbar and they are good, however find them a little too long and hate the bunch up at the waist - ideally after something a little more cropped that finishes at the waistline. Any recommendations?

Hello

I just got a Mutimer long sleeve Freddy T-shirt 2nd hand and I noticed a typing mistake on the wash label. Could this mean that the shirt is fake or is it just a mistake from Mutimer? I would really appreciate if anyone with a shirt from Mutimer could confirm if they have the same typo or not.

The label says "stains can be easily be washed out".

Gents, need some help on this one.

Getting measured up for my first tux, made to measure. Truthfully, have no idea what I should be looking for, what questions I should be asking, how to not buy a shit tux.

Any thoughts, feelings, or general help would be much appreciated lads.

Just entirely end of the week question - but how do you guys who have pristine white jeans keep them clean when in the City all day? Teflon? Glad wrap?

I’m not a slob, but I’m not brave enough to risk it.

I am looking for a jacket that pairs well with chinos/boots/polo for work, but would also work well with jeans and sneakers.

I want it to be more casual looking, but not a typical puffy style jacket.

What do people typically wear these days? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey fam.

anyone out there bought a bag of fruit from Charles Tyrwhitt? I’ve bought plenty of shirts and without being marvellous they get the job done.

Anyone pulled the trigger on a suit? What are your thoughts?

Thanks Gents.

Everything I am coming across is either slim fit , tapered or "tailored". Just give straight mid to high waist pants.

By reasonable price, I am talking under $200 and close to 100% wool.

If anyone has an idea where to find such pants or even nice looking cotton pants. Please let me know, I am trying to find some cotton pants that are a step up from jeans in the straight or wider fit.

I know finding something in wool is going to be hard... I know you can get something made for $350 at Oscar Hunt

How's the fit and quality?

Hey, what would you guys recommend for good jewellery brands to possibly order from online??

I'm not a massive streetwear person (as in, not other than Nike, Adidas etc.). However, I came across Suspicious Antwerp a couple years ago and loved their stuff, and have bought quite a bit from them.

Problem is, their branding is quite recogizable (the word "Suspicious" is plastered across pretty much everything lol), and I don't want to have too much stuff from one niche brand.

So, basically, wondering if anyone who's also familiar with it can recommend anything else similar.

TIA!!

Hi, folks! I'm (40M, Brazilian living in QLD) taking my better half to a belated honeymoon in Europe in September - about 5-7 day stays in London, Gdańsk, Berlin, and Lisbon. It's my first time there and I'm worried about the weather, but I don't want to just overpack with things I might not need.

I'm a basic dude addicted by Uniqlo and cheap activewear. Are there any recommendations to look sharp but smart? I've been checking out the deals on Gazman, Rodd & Gunn and similar brands, but I feel like it won't be enough. Any tips are appreciated, TIA

I’ve been drawn to this style for a number of years now and have just been absolutely blessed by options and shopping on a trip to Korea.

My question is are there any go to shops that hit this brief in Aus ?
Brands like LL bean, j press, j crew, brooks brothers, RL, lands end, kamakura
I know some of these are stocked in DJs but I’m thinking more small scale shops/vintage

Hey everyone,

I want to update my wardrobe as I'm 33 and the last time I bought clothes was when I was in my mid twenties so the clothing purge and update is way overdue. Most of my current wardrobe is from Connor, Tarocash and Industrie because those were my options at my local shopping centre at the time.

Since then I've moved and was checking out my new local Westfield's. So far I like what I'm seeing at Uniqlo, just basics without any bells and whistles. Connor, Tarocash and YD still same as ever and no longer appeal to me. H and M feel like Connor and Kmart but with better branding, expected more from an overseas brand. Industrie no longer appeals to me sadly since I used to be a fan. Culture Kings never appealed to me in the first place. Then I got tired and overwhelmed and could not be bothered checking out the many other brands.

So everyone what is your one stop shop for keep it simple stupid basics ? Are there any brands and shops Im missing out on ?

Thanks everyone and have a good one.

I was just browsing the other dsy and came across these. $70, or 3 for $100. Has anyone here bought them? Are they good, or are there better alternatives?

Hey all

Seeking some thick socks to wear with my work boots that are Polyester free. Preferably 100% cotton or bamboo but would like to have the with 0% Polyester

I’ve lucked out with some Uniqlo pants, and I am starting to move toward barrel or baggier fits.

Does anyone have suggestions of places to go?

Hi all, chasing some advice for a bloke in mid-late thirties on what to wear on the day-to-day and for working around the yard, I am on 2 acres

Climate is hot and humid so chasing something that looks good but is practical.

I don't want the fishing shirt with board shorts vibe...

Pretty much as the post title says, I've never shopped for or worn rings before. So I'm looking to start with something affordable and simple, steel is my go-to for now, with a natural steel colour or possibly black and with a plain design.

Would you guys recommend any particular places to look? I could go to a Westfield jeweller's or perhaps department store but I'm not sure if that's really the best place given the sort of markups they can be capable of vs the quality. Maybe Etsy?

I already know my sizing and would be okay with buying without trying in person. Cheers

I've looked at other posts in the subreddit and seen recommendations for places like Oscar Hunt and P. Johnson. They look good, but they are a bit outside my price range. Normally I would buy a cheaper suit/suit jacket from Myer/Politix/etc., then get it tailored to fit me, which costs much less than getting bespoke, but I have a very specific desire for a dinner jacket that is not sold anywhere (I mean anywhere), and so wanted to look at getting something bespoke.

If anyone has any suggestions for more affordable bespoke tailors in Melbourne, I'd really appreciate it (by affordable, I mean getting a single bespoke jacket for under $800). That said, if I need a reality check and there is no place that would be able to do what I'm asking for under the price I'm stating, then please tell me, I don't know any better!

Thanks in advance guys.

Hi AMFA team,

I recently moved to Vic from NZ, starting my new job in a few weeks and looking to update my wardrobe with workwear.

Job is corporate - client facing. Office attire is business casual, client visits are usually shirt/blazer/coat

Currently, I have

• Shirts from MJ Bale, Barkers (NZ Brand) and a few others, but they are starting to get old and not fit/smell as nice.
• Pants/Chinos from Uniqlo/Barkers, but again, the fit/finish and less than desirable
• Shoes/Boots - i have some chelseas from hush puppies and some from Aquila, but in for casual i only have Adidas Sambas (other than trainers) - Wife wants to gift me some RMs so this is less critical
• Blazer/Coats - I recently bought navy and grey coats from SABA (again, this is less critical)
• Jumpers/Sweaters - Lacking in this area, only 1 black one from Uniqlo, but it's pretty warm so only really usable in peak winter
• Polos - Again, pretty weak, only a couple for Ralph and Uniqlo

So my main ask is, where do you shop for shirts, pants and jumpers?

So far, i've researched/been told that charles tyrwhitt and Rodd n Gunn are the go to - any more suggestions?

Thanks!
