2. Weekend Sharp
These heavy-shirt/light-jacket mixbreeds are available just about anywhere, at a wide range of price points.
Since you’ll be wearing it with several combinations of pieces, look for something solid and neutral for best versatility – like olive, navy, grey, etc.
A vintage military shirt would work similarly as well - although you may need some tailoring.
Make sure it is fitted through the body and sleeve, with just enough room under for a button-down shirt and a thin layer (like a cardigan, v-neck, crewneck, henley, etc).

I can’t seem to find these boots anywhere.
The black Brooklyn bootworks ones.
Hi Dan , can you discribe how you made your scarf or can you make a photo of it . Thanks
Great Piece. I especially like the first. Those tweed pants are great!

HUGE fan of the first look, head to toe flawless (you look like a lost Polish boy- in a good way though lol)
Last one, not so much. WHY do men associate being in a bar with ,well, that kind of look ??? I’m not saying it’s a bad look, just not – good.

So, what exactly should men be wearing to the bar?
Hockey jerseys, wranglers and new balance? Three piece bespoke? I don’t see how something as mundane as going to a bar could illicit such a need for a specific outfit, and that the one Dan shows above is considered totally off-base or unacceptable?
Please help us mere mortals understand what the ‘not-not-good’ look is for going out to drink beer with our buddies. We would hate to offend all of woman-kind by wearing a shacket, reworked jersey scarf and army boots to our local drinking hole.
Great! I dig this a lot, especially the first look
An outfit like number 1 in the post is a great option to use in autumn here in Brazil. I really need to find a “shacket” right now!
Your Business Casual look is fantastic. Each piece looks great together on you. Very cool pants.

why are you wearing sunglasses when its cloudy?
they come and go, those clouds
Whatever you do button up that shirt!! Huge pet peeve of mine to see a man showing chest hair…otherwise great looks!
What a prude! Men have chest hair deal with it! Having your shirt buttoned down to your navel is one thing, but there’s absolutely nothing wrong with showing a little taco meat. Lighten up dude!
Common AAJR, really?! Of course, it`s just an opinion and I respect that but it doesn`t mean I have to agree..it`s sexi!
Nice shirtscarf bro
Awesome blog Dan! Love the last look and how you improvised by making a scarf out of old t shirts! Looking forward to the next one
Awesome looks! I love the more laid back casual looks versus the business work suit looks in previous posts. Keep up the good work Dan
Do you get shirts you intend to wear as jackets hemmed in any way (they appear to shorter than a typical shirt, and cut straight). Thanks! Great work!
All looks here are pristine… Number one- the color coordination between the tie and socks, shirt and tie under the shacket, desert boots.. that’s a great look man. I’m going to have to dress up my shacket now! Haha
Annnd you`re back! Inspiring post as usual. The shirt from business casual works for womens too. I actually wear it today :). When I have to play business and need some inspiration..here you are.
Best

Great post Dan. Number 3 is by far my favorite look.
The photography seems to have greatly improved in this post. Every picture in this post seems to jump off the page. It’s really a great improvement.
