I agree with her too- but as a clothier a couple of thoughts….
Monochrome with gray hair should be black or navy (for some blondes too), Grey can be tricky as the only shade.
Imagine this outfit with a black shawl sweater- it would make the gray mane and the gray pants pop with the contrast! I like the shawl- he’s in shape and has broad shoulders so he can carry off the more youthful look.
The pants are great but I can tell you what the problem is- the break is too pronounced. They are British dress pants and so typically worn( and no doubt tailored ) with dress shoes which have a much lower profile than topsiders. If you want to wear dress pants with deck shoes, hike up the waist or shorten your length because your break is going to look sloppy.

This is a silver fox hottie…he’s got attitude, independence ,definitely not your father’s Oldsmobile
Look around at the guys his age..You know?
He has his own style and he looks like he just knows
Forget about pants length- he leaves an impression. A cool older guy with “go to hell” flair.
Prep to me isn’t Talbots or B B, V V , or picking the outfit exactly out of a J Crew catalogue. It’s expression AND attitude.
I’ll bet he just knows…Love the sweater and the tops.

Leave that man alone. He has good taste and prefers to be different. Much respect to him.

This guy has that “I’m a f#*$in millionaire and I don’t give a $h*t what anyone thinks about me”. Great sweater, great shoes, and a great attitude. Thanks FEC.

I agree with L.A.S and Jim Jones, this guy looks out of place and uncomfortable. Each piece seperately isnt bad, I love my sperry’s and the shawl sweater isnt bad. The combination just doesnt work.

Is is just me or have the latest entries been sub-par?

That sweater is not for him and I personally don’t like pleated pants. I only aprove his top-siders.

Sorry, it was a two martini lunch.
“He has that relaxed…”

He is has that relaxed-silver-fox-thing going for him but the same outfit would have looked better in dark gray or navy. IMHO.

Jim—I ran into this gentleman on Greenwich Ave as is. I don’t dress people, just photograph them. What initially drew me to him was just his overall relaxed manner. There are several things I don’t specifically care for (the monochromatic earth tones, the length of his trousers) yet I was still drawn to photograph him.

did you guys just throw a rugby sweater on this guy? It looks so forced, out of place and childish on what could have been a refined, well-dressed older gentleman.

One can never go wrong with Sperrys. Love the sweater too!

His geriatric trousers need a hem in the worst way possible.
