Can someone help me find more hats like these?

I have been having a hard time finding hats and was wondering if anyone could help me find more hats like these from stores that ship to Canada. (More emphasis on the Imperial Motion hat.)

What are some Canadian leather jacket shops?

I have been looking for a new leather jacket but don't know many non-American brands to buy from. In addition, most are also motorcycle brands. So I was wondering what some quality jacket shops are. I don't quite care if it's a store specifically in Canada or just sells to Canada (I more just don't want American products).

LF solid black dad cap

Prefer cotton fabric or something more breathable that can provide face/head cover from the sun. Price range is around $30-$70, but would consider other prices depending on the quality. Not too interested in secondhand, image/designs, trucker caps, mesh caps, or snap backs for the purpose of this request specifically. Requires shipping to the US, no rush necessary....

Tips for styling this suit in interesting ways?

I quite like the silhouette and shade of this new Uniqlo suit. I think it might fit my desire for an autumn/ winter suit I can wear casually in the way I wear my linen or linen/cotton suits in the spring/summer. But I'm not sure what I can wear to make it more visually interesting that just a plain white t-shirt or basic collared shirt (like the chambray here). It's actually dark brown with a greyish hue, although it just looks grey in these pics due to lighting. ...

LC Lemaire Twisted Denim jeans

These are incredible but because I am a yokel who hasn't tried on Lemaire before I've got no clue if they're legit. :cryingsunglasses:

Hakama Pants and Culottes

I really like the way hakama pants and (pleated) culottes look but don't know where to buy them. Muji has hakama pants but the largest size is a women's medium which I think might be too small. Would be looking for a budget around $100, I know that's probably a little too tight so I'm open to other options of short wide high rise heavily pleated trousers in NYC exclusively.

Streak on shirt

Received a button-up shirt, realized it had this sort of magneta streak that may or may not be from a pencil or something. Wondering if anyone has advice on how to remove it? I believe this shirt is rayon.

Alternative to Scott Fraser Chet Knit

Looking for a textured off white / tan / beige T shirt that’s tight fitting in the sleeves, ideally with an high neck. The Scott Fraser collection Chet knit t shirt looks awesome, but I can’t quite stomach the price for a t-shirt. 250CAD is my budget. Any suggestions?

Suit fit check and suggestions for shoes and accessories/flourishes

I’m looking for thoughts of how this suit fits. Some feedback is that this jacket seems boxy. This is the JCrew Ludlow and I’m wondering if I should go for a non slim cut? Also, any suggestions on shoes? I’d like to go for something perhaps a tad more adventurous than derbies. Maybe loafers? Also, should I consider a pocket square? Thx....

Casual officewear struggles

So back when I was in academia I could wear literally anything and nobody cared at all, but now I work in a big boy office and I'm finding myself in a creative rut with what I'm wearing day to day. I love my job but it's in a casual office/lab environment which means tailored jackets are out of place and long pants are non negotiable. Also I'm on my feet a lot some days, which means I'm wearing comfy sneakers every weekday now. Graphic tees are fine but I'd be a lot more comfortable wearing chiller ones than unhinged ones. I'm attaching two photos which are kinda what I'm defaulting to (some sort of shirt over a tee + pants + sneakers) but the formula gets old and I feel like I'm cycling through variations on the same few outfits day in and day out. A lot of the outfits that I've really enjoyed on myself in the past involved leaning hard into soft flowy clothing, sometimes pairing/contrasting it with tailored jackets / Ivyish pieces and I feel like I can't do much in that area....

t-shirt sleeves protruding under short sleeve shirt?

I've posted about this before and the consensus was to forgo the tee entirely (which I often do especially when it's hotter) or to switch to tanks (still not a fan but I tried several and haven't yet found one that is substantial without being uncomfortable and isn't halfway to my knees if worn untucked). Realistically, I still want to wear tees pretty often underneath camp collar shirts like this one, either buttoned or unbuttoned, and with boxier fits like this field spec tee, the sleeves are often longer than those of the shirt. Can I get away with it so long as they are close together in terms of value or does it always look bad?...

Should I keep this suit/in what context would you wear it

I thrifted this nice Canali suit a while back but as I clean out my wardrobe I'm not sure if I should keep it. The only event I have coming up is a wedding and in my mind a black pinstripe suit isn't really right for that. Any thoughts?

What would the overshirt in this photo would be called

Saw this photo from an interview with Hiroki Nakamura from 2009 and I've been trying to figure out what the overshirt thing he's wearing is. Because of the angle I feel like I'm not seeing enough detail, and I can't find any other picture with the same outfit. Doesn't have to be the exact product, just like, what it would be called. Looks vaguely like either a utility jacket or a chore coat but people with more knowledge might have a better description (Bonus if you can tell if those pants are corduroy or not bc it almost looks like it but idk if its the photo quality)...

Looking for sweatpants without an elastic waist/hem.

Looking for 100% cotton sweatpants without elastic waist or hem but with drawstrings to tie in these places. Colour does not matter as these are supposed to function as warm pyjama pants while hiking. Only looking for secondhand stuff in Europe (so mainly vinted). Budget is "as low as possible".

Big chunky knits with no ribbing at hem and cuffs

I recently got this Isabel Benenato one that for a couple of reasons I'm most likely returning, so I'm looking for similar stuff. Mostly looking for lighter colors, beiges, lighter shades of brown or grey, etc. Ideally 100% wool, but up to 20% synthetics is acceptable. Rollneck is fine, but not a necessity. Ideally would pay no more than $200 second hand.
