Hey all you MFin' FMFers. Thought I'd share some fit pics of an outfit that I almost exclusively purchased via our beloved frugal subreddit and tell you a bit about it.
Shoes: Converse '70s white monochrome, 6pm for $32
Socks: Taft no shows, 10 pack for $20
Pants: Levi's tapered high rise chinos, levis.com for $15
Shirt: Frank & Oak splatter short sleeve button down, $32
Jacket: 3sixteen type 3s double black, grailed.com for $160
Watch: Timex Weekender and Hides & Stitches natural veg tan strap, $20 on amazon and $18 from H&S respectively
Notes: I'm mostly happy with this fit. I think all the pieces work together really well. The only issue I have is the pants look a little large in the crotch and seat for me but feel tight when I'm sitting down so ¯\(ツ)/¯
I splurged on the jacket because I'm 6'3" and I've been looking for a black jean jacket that would be longer than my belly button and also slim fitting and have long enough sleeves. I took a chance on grailed (I live in a city where options for higher end menswear are few and far between) and figured I could sell it for a small loss if it didn't work out. Turns out it fits like a dream so bullet dodged there!
The Frank & Oak shirt was a bit more than I normally spend on SSBDs but it was on sale in my size (medium tall) with free returns so I went for it. The fabric feel is nothing special but I think the pattern is pretty unique and versatile enough to work with a variety of summer fits.
The rest of the pieces are pretty basic and speak for themselves. Thank you for reading and thank you /r/frugalmalefashion for all the great deals over the years! If you guys like this post, reply with an outfit and post of your own, or maybe it could be a recurring thread.
