Best comment ever!

A few weeks ago I wrote a  post about the fit of a trim fit OCBD from L.L.Bean.

This comment I've received a couple of minutes ago:

German trim fit is what we call male prostitute/gigolo fit in the U.S.

Offensive, but still funny. And it reminds me, that I have twice as many readers from the US, than from Germany. Thank you for dropping by, US readers!
 
And it reminds me of a post from our blogging fellow oxfordclothbuttondown.com (for me one of the best preppy blogs) and his post about "The Myth of The Slim Fit Shirt".

Tucked in like this, his traditional fit BB's shirt looks really great from the front. And it's true, it's all about feeling comfy in your clothes.

I own a few trim fit shirts and they are kind of tight around my biceps (not that I am as fit as the guy from the mentioned blog). And every time I wear them I think about dumping them.

But this sentence in his post says it all: "I know that I am fit and I do not think that my colleagues and clients need to be made aware of this."

Well spoken. Lesson learned.

Clarks Wallabees - Only for Walter White?

No picture of me today as I am ill at home.  Haven't eaten a thing since 4 o'clock in the morning. Gosh!

I hope I'll feel better tomorrow...

And we've learned today, that you little daughter (she turned 1 year last month) needs a surgical operation. There's some kind of bulge right over her shinbone which needs to be removed next month. 
Man, I don't like to think about it...

But here's another topic.

Being a fan of Breaking Bad I thought about Walter's Clarks Wallabees quite often.

The shape is kind of unusual and the shoes are far from being elegant, but I like the suede leather. But something in the whole appearance of the shoes keeps me from buying a pair.

It's not that I think it's a loser's shoe, like Walter son says on his donation website. But I think you'll run the risk that no one will understand the reason you wear these shoes.

I like the Desert Boot, that's for sure. But what about the Wallabee?

What do you think?

This one doesn't come in dark brown.

I like the colour but it's too low.
