Re: GQing yourself

www.astorandblack.com
Is anyone familiar w/ astor and black custom clothiers?
I just came across an advertisement and the prices seem right if quality is there.
I'm going to test the waters with a few shirts and ties and will give a update.
 
Re: GQing yourself

im trying to G.Q. myself by starting off by straying away from chopper suit like suits, so im kinda getting into wing-tip shoes and ascot's instead of reg old tie's, and working with diff color scheme's like browns and grey's. I will get pics of the shoes up lata but if any body know a good place for some wing-tips help they hard to find and expensive. thanks GQ brothas:cool:

Re: GQing yourself

Just wanna say/co-sign

Don't buy cheap ass shoes it is a waste of money, unless you are out of town and forgot your shoes or something special case...

For example you buy Stacy Adams or whatever for $30-40 after you wear them 5 times they look like you had them a year...trust me get a nice pair of Kenneth Cole or Cole Hahn moderate priced stuff or on sale if you got a couple hundo

Re: GQing yourself

I hear that ascots have an "old man" (50+) stigma. I don't have any, but I would like to include some in my wardrobe.

Re: GQing yourself

On Dhani Jones tackles the Globe (England), he made a visit to a tailor who fitted him with a black sport jacket, a white or light lavendar shirt and slacks or jeans (can't remember). The look was very stylish and not over done :yes: I think it is shown during the opening credits. Can someone post of picture of it?

No its not top notch and i hate their shirts...Most black brothers (Esp them Nigerians) love TM LEWIN shirts...I hate their fabrics...yes they might look good on picture but I really dont feel their cotton

But if you are on budget then its cool to buy some....
If I'm on budget then this is always my rescue:

Otherwise MARK MARENGO is the way to go even though they've become slightly expensive last couple of months

Ya it's a lotta hipster doofus shit niggas just posted. You can go GQ w/o wearing them tight ass jeans. But it's a lot of A to Z niggas out there that figure it has to be sagging or extremely tight. A lot of these outfits would look a whole lot more decent in regular fitted shit. And these paperbag shoes are fucking ugly.

This woulda been a good look w/ some NORMAL jeans and a sports jacket w/ the same color instead of the coat imo.

brooklyn circus is that shit. definitely go and support. black owned and all that. the nigga who owns it is a lil dude with a beard - cool as fuck.

support black business.

as far as branding goes - a lot of the pics on here are coming from the bkcircus blog and their press pics. they stay on that gentleman/prep with an ever so slight hint of urban. it's a good classic look. i fux with it.

I'll go get a t shirt from Brooklyn circus. I'll also hit the Bbraxton Men's grooming shop in Harlem. I can't buy preppy clothes from an urban store. I keep Ralph Lauren and Brooks Brothers in business.
