I mean, I doubt you can chuck dress pants in the washing machine so I'm intrigued.

I think it can look great if it’s a loose pant like the uniqlo loose pleated pants buuuut idt think the silhouette really works with a slimmer pair

At first glance it just looks like oddly shaped sweatpants. So you don't get the contrast. If you look carefully and you realize the contrast you just get formality mismatch. Wool slacks, peeking tshirt, hoodie? Oddball. My 2c

Sweatpants 😭😭😭 I don’t see it but thanks for the feedback. I personally like it but thanks for the feedback Out of curiosity what would be a contrast of smart/casual since you said it’s a formality mismatch I kinda feel like that’s the whole thing of smart/casual mix. Like an overcoat/hoodie, shirt, trousers and bomber jacket and hoodie with a shirt underneath.

Just my take I went into an argument about mixing up like that with another member when the reddit sub was regular a few years back I think it the level of layering Say u wear hoodie then the upper level u have a top coat This is what i think tho With the pic u posted Remove the crease from the trousers Swap with more prominent texture fabric I think it would looks cool then Seh kelly trousers are like that

Wait I’m sorry I don’t follow so to make it better is to wear an overcoat and trousers that haven’t been pressed and to wear a pants wit more visible texture?

So for your example I think in order to make wat u wore mix well Deformalize the trousers Is way to go, eg no crease Morw texturous fabric I think that what informale does Or seh kelly

I find it hard to mix a dress trousers straight up with hoodie But then what i said just equal to get another trousers. Sorry if that not helpful

The colors and the tee underneath aren't really working in your favor here. I think it can be done, but sweats with trousers is a choice and is going to need the right shoes and other layers and such to get it to be cohesive

Would you say grey wool trousers? Or even These brown trousers? If not what colour would you recommend? And for shoes I normally wear black boots or converse

Those are some really nice trousers love the thicker waistband and the cut. But are they not similar to these? https://www.oliveclothing.com/men/legwear/p-oliveunique-20171206-001-hazel-menswear-volk-wool-trousers-hazel Or would you say they have more visual texture? They look the same to me imho and they have a grey pair too

It the no front crease make it casual and can mix better with other casual pieces
