See the HomeGoods sign in the upper left corner. I have this weird thing about scrutinizing pictures... it looks like those Home Goods/Marshals hybrid store.

Rugged colors today. Jacket: Taylor Stitch Shirt: Taylor Stitch Pants: Iron Heart Boots: ePxAlden Look nice but I would prefer a cleaner roll. I'm just breaking these in, then shipping them to get hemmed and tapered. The opening is too big, as big as a Gustin Straight fit opening.

In Bored! Converse 70's Buzz Rickson HBT IH UH flannel Gustin Loomstate Nice pieces all around but I may wear them differently. No matter how hard I try, I think Converse is just not a good match with the more rugged IH gears. I can see why you may think that. But if not Boots (wear those at work and get tired of them) then what else then a pair of Chucks?

So what Shoes? I personally don't like my Alden Indys with jeans (l think they look odd with a cuff), I wear my Black Cherry Beckmans to work and the Iron Rangers so I have Boots but I guess no shoes beside some Long Wings which I'm guessing wouldn't look good with what I've got going here. Maybe some new G boat shoes.?

Maybe some new G boat shoes.? I am unsure it is the Indy/cuff but it is more to do with the straight fit/wider hem. I don't have an answer except work boots since I don't wear straight fit jeans. This is another reason that I am never into IH.

I think I'm in the minority here, but I can never shake the "aww shucks" feeling when I cuff my jeans. It's also remarkably difficult to find images of The Beav's cuffs.

Chucks with Gustin slims I like but not a wider cuff I agree. Alden Indy I do not wear with jeans either. Been wearing cuffs on the 19oz Sammy's with my iron rangers. Love it. Aw shucks! Today we are wearing and Easter outfit. More dapper than selvedge style but I love a good bow tie with and OCBD. Grey chinos and walnut strands.

Bond James Bond. Great Easter bow tie game. Hope you have pants that match the tie and a Pair of white bucks. Gotta replace that no pocket button down though.

I do have seersucker pants but the standard light blue. No bucks would rather wear boat shoes. These Tommy Hilfiger button downs work great for tie duty and they were cheap! My Gustin and a few others just don't fit my neck properly.

DigDug Chucks are damn near made for straight cut blue jeans, they look great. Don't listen to MiddleAge, that guy spends hundreds of dollars on ugly ass trainers To say Chucks don't look good with IH jeans is like saying a T shirt doesn't look good with blue jeans. Craziness. What does look silly is Chucks with skinny jeans or jeans with a real small cuff, clown shoe look for sure. Unless you have real tiny feet then I guess one could pull it off.

I was reading a guide about how to buy denim and stopped when they said a 5-6" cuff is ideal. I'd have to learn to dance pointe to get my feet through.

Proportions is the name of the game. Taller guys pull it off fine. 7.5" cuff with a 30-32" inseam maybe cannot pull it off as well as the guy that is 6'4" with his full 36" inseam

Punk Rock aesthetic pulls this off amazingly. And I don't just mean one has to be a punk rock. I mean like a Punk inspired fit of any kind.

I don't care if it's punk rock or not, it looks silly unless your feet are very small.
