Imperfects quality

Hi all, I'm new around here and am wondering if anyone has any experience with the quality of the brand Imperfects (I didn't find anything when searching this channel). A friend recommended them, but hasn't worn them long enough to know about durability, I'm looking particularly at their pants https://imperfects.com/

Is this type of material tailor-able?

I saw these pants at COS and I’m interested in maybe purchasing but they’re too long. I’m wondering if these can be tailored at a tailor for the same straight edge they currently have? Also curious how I could style them since they mainly appealed to me for the material and kind of reminded me of the Weekend Ken pants but more sport like...

Anyone know anything about the brand "TABOO NOAH"? Looking to pick up a secondhand item.

These aren't the items, but images of the logo I've seen on this particular brand and its clothing. Can't seem to find anything about it. Is it related to the Noah brand? Seems like it's a Japanese brand inspired by American/Western aesthetics. https://cdn2.2ndstreet.jp/img/sp/goods/234174/26/13669/3_mn.jpg https://media-assets.grailed.com/prd/listing/21836889/4d18a96d3f4d4ff19c0a5c19c4ec1750...

currently experiencing at a styling plateau 🙃

style creativity's at a plateau. 🙃 *hey, y'all! I've got a passion for fashion, and it's been a good 10+ years since I started to focus on the way I dress. I've tried quite a bit of style/clothing from preppy, to emo/grunge to hipster/granola. while I've gotten several wonderful compliments from friends and random people, I feel as if I'm stuck in this styling plateau, and my creativity to build newer outfits or optimize outfits has not improved. I like patterns and boldness and I also love minimalism....

What are good affordable brands for streetwear/sweaters?

Probably should have asked this before but I've been kind of adjusting my wardrobe towards streetwear and just a more mature look. I've been shopping at pull&bear, bershka, pacsun, and zara. Was looking for somewhere that sold sweaters like this maybe? If you have any favorite spots online that have something like this or just affordable streetwear, suggestions would be appreciated!

Can someone tell me what's wrong with these pants?

I'm looking for chinos and found some slim fit ones in my size. However, that there's tension(?) around my crotch and fabric bunching up on my knees. Can someone tell me what causes this/what to look for instead?

Inseam for barrel jeans

Got these barrel jeans and the inseam is a little shorter than I expected. When I see jeans like this with lots of pooling I feel like it sometimes sacrifices the barrel shape, but I also typically prefer some break with baggy jeans. Should I go with a longer inseam or is this length good?

Inspo for long sleeve tees?

Currently the owner of many slim fit henleys. I plan on keeping some around for use as under layers, but I want to see other long sleeve tee fits. I wear sweaters already so I figured if they are not being used as a thermal/underlayer, that they would be a lighter version of a sweater for transitional weather? But kind of want to see what that would look like sizing/fit and outfit-styling wise. Currently the only long sleeve tee that I own that isn’t meant to be an underlayer is this one from Marine Layer (apologies for messy room)...

Bound Jumper

Does anyone have any experience buying jumpers from bound or any other items from them? https://wearebound.co.uk/products/toffee-ombre-knit-sweater I'm tempted to get this but I don't want to spend this type of money if it isn't something that isn't going to last. I'm also just trying to find some type of jumper with a somewhat interesting design but am coming up with nothing....

What are the dos and donts when shopping for a coat?

I recently realized that I paid last year a 100 euros for a polyester coat from HM, it doesn't keep me warm, it doesnt look that good on me to begin with as the fit isn't very good and the material doesnt feel premium. Since im shopping more often on vinted (less fast fashion, less buying new items but also buying more premium clothes) I found a really nice 100% wool coat by Ballantyne thats made in Soctland. But im not sure if there are things to consider more before making a purchase so are there dos and donts you guys would recommend?...

Rick Owens - Finding Used Pieces, Is it worth it?

Hey. So continuing on with the Rick conversations I've been having here as of lately, I wanted to make a Q&A to ask a few questions. 1. Would it be worth trying to get into the Rick style of clothing? It wouldn't replace my dominant style of kinda-ivy, kinda-western. 2. Where could I find used Rick clothing for (relatively) cheap online in the UK? Obviously if I find out the style is not for me than used would help as I wouldn't have spent too much compared to new. Of course I could be mistaken and it's expensive even used :derp:...

Shoe alternatives for a brown linen suit

I got brown linen suit earlier this year, pretty close to the one in the pic. I have a pair of brown suade Alden loafers I've worn with them before, but I was curious what some other options might be. Is it crazy to wear a kind of boot with them?

Are the Levi's 501 selvedge shrink to fit?

Basically title, and i'm referring to this https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/men/jeans/straight/501-original-fit-selvedge-mens-jeans/p/005013516?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&adpos=&camp=PLA*EC*US*EN*17004636363*PMAX*goog*&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC-PMYVmCqVk5G1dWxr6poOJuQ4KW&gclid=CjwKCAiA6aW6BhBqEiwA6KzDcw3D8A1xwOmzBlTjNadyYER26FVcoICX7kZGp19lrgMeRieo2yrkCxoCA84QAvD_BwE Saw the video from youtuber edgyalbert's guide for 501s saying to size up 1 in the waist and 2 lengthwise, but i believe those are specifically for the regular 501 STF, not the premium 501 selvedge. Should I apply the same steps if im trying to get the one in the link above?...
