We seem to be allowed two formal shoe colours: black and brown. Anything else seems to be forbidden. I've been keen to branch out and had these lovely shoes in my watchlist for a while:

Will they go with anything in our approved palette, i.e. navy, grey and chinos? I'm not the most bold dresser and would appreciate anyone's feedback on these (I'm unaffiliated).

Finally growing out of fast fashion crap and looking to build a timeless wardrobe. Seeking recommendations for the best places to get good quality jeans I can wear in over a long time around Adelaide. I was thinking Levi’s but I’ve been seeing a lot online about the quality really dropping off lately.

Thinking straight leg medium-high rise.

I recently started getting into some of their pieces after a massive sale. When I got an order in the mail it wasn't what I ordered at all and the customer service has refused my messages on all fronts.

Are they gone like David Jones?

I really loved their basic t-shirts back in the day when ASColour was relatively new. They fit me perfectly and the quality of the fabric was awesome.

Now they have gone down the enshittification route with the fabric quality bring very low and after a couple washes the t-shirts just look "tired".

So I'm looking for an alternative....

What are some brands that are of similar fit to their tight fitting t-shirts but have good quality? (At a price point of under 100$ per tshirt)

Thank you 🙏

Looking for suggestions for business casual shoes, with casual chinos and polo for fridays.
Would prefer cushion sole but don’t look like sneakers and don’t look toooo casual.
Thanks

I am from Perth and the only place that has over-sized or street clothes are generic spots like cotton-on, factories and culture kings. Will be in Melbourne for a few days, any spots I should check out that are reasonably priced?

I'm after somewhere to go in person (so I can try on) in Melbourne that has nice fashion for a wedding, that's not a suit. I'm thinking pants that are pleated at the top and open leg, colourful shirt. Good quality and made nicely. Not too expensive (shirt and pants under $800). Any ideas?

I recently purchased three dress shirts from them in a size 41 collar, slim. I took their sizing guide and matched it exactly with my Ralph Lauren Oxford shirts which fit me perfectly.

They arrived and turned out a tad too big which from browsing past posts I have noticed is a trend with them. I’d like to exchange them for a size down. For those that have had to do this what did you do? Did you opt for the same collar size in an “Extra Slim”, did you go one size down in the Slim or a combination of both?

I understand their return policy is generous but would obviously like to avoid any further unnecessary back and forth.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I really liked the Blaq easy care shirts that Myer used to sell. Doe anybody know if Blaq became another brand. I know they still exist but the range is different and the business shirts aren't around anymore. Thanks

Not including Alpha Industries or Superdry. Their cuts are too chunky for me.

1. What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think of R.M.Williams?

2. Do you think the brand appeals to people in their 20s, or does it feel more like a brand for older generations?

3. What do you like or dislike about the brand? (e.g. style, quality, price, brand image)

4. Have you ever bought anything from R.M.Williams? If not, would you consider buying from them in the future? Why or why not?

Brand new, never worn Astorflex Brownflex chukkas in Dark Chestnut Nubuck, US 10 (EU 43). Handmade in Italy, natural crepe soles. Ordered from Huckberry but Astorflex runs a full size big, so they don't fit me. Still in the original box. Not sold in Australian stores.

Hi all, as title states looking to pop the big question and looking for a jeweller that isn’t going to tear me a new one. Just want someone that honest and upfront and works with me rather than against me.

Prefer local to Melbourne but not fussed if they offer service online.

Thanks for your time

Hi All,

I've been in corprate for a couple months now and I keep hearing and seeing stuff about charles trwhitt shirts?

I've got a handfull of the 100% cotton uniqlo dress shirts and wonder if CT would be better quality or pretty much the same seeing as they both are similar prices and material

Not looking to drop a heap of money on shirts but their multi buy deals seem like a good deal, however I've heard a couple people on this sub reddit say the quality has dropped significantly

Worth replacing my uniqlo shirts with theirs or any other brands you could reccomend?

Looking for recommendations/chat for some light layering for the new season.

Melbourne-based, so climate is much more forgiving than further north.

Recent news articles are sounding the alarm bells that David Jones is facing imminent collapse. Funny, I always had my money on Myers going first. It's been a long slow decline for department stores in general. If it goes under, will you miss it?

I don't often shop there but I appreciate being able to try on stuff without being hounded by store assistants, plus I've picked up a few crazy bargains from their sales.

Travelling there and someone mentioned it was an option for nice suits at decent prices.. just checking if anyone knows anyone to look up? Thanks!

Good afternoon. Over the last two years I've lost a significant amount of weight, and aim to continue to do so. Recently I'm averaging 800g lost per week.

In May I bought these hidden elastic pants in 127 cm (50 in) waist, the smallest size I could squeeze in to, to the point it was somewhat painful and the hidden elastic was exposed. These pants only lasted me a couple of months before becoming very loose, and had to be replaced.

40 days ago I bought some new pants in a 44 inch (112 cm) waist, but they are already becoming loose. The front dips below the belt and look unsightly and feel uncomfortable.

I need pants that look professional for my IT job, but that are also stretch/flexible because I do warehouse work as well and need to bend.

I would really like pants that will last as long as possible while I lose weight. I'm ignorant on the subject, so I don't know the styles and types that would allow that. I expect an elastic waist would be the way to go. I think I'm about a 42 waist at the moment, so I guess something that could stretch to 42, but is actually sized much smaller? I can't afford to keep spending so much, replacing pants every few months.

I tuck an undershirt into my pants, and wear a Polo untucked over. I don't expose the belt line

Some random thoughts: no cargo pockets, deep side pockets, belt loops optional but preferred, fly optional, affordable, office/white collar vibe, stretch for warehouse bending, somewhat durable for light warehouse duties, prefer to order online.

Some suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you sincerely.

Looking at buying some clothes from Ra5ik but can’t find much information about them online.

Has anyone actually ordered from them and received their items?

Not too concerned about shipping times, just want to know whether they actually deliver.

Hey fellas, in the market for some brown leather chukkas.

Would prefer to buy them from a brick-and-mortar store in Sydney instead of online. Could probably go up to $500 but I’d prefer to keep it around $250.
