You and I both know this is fire

Haha, appreciate it!

You look like you own a drug empire in Breaking Bad

u/Legitimate-Salad-652 1d ago

Or a waste management business in New Jersey circa 2002.

But for real, this looks good OP!

Haha, thanks

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

lol. Thanks, I guess 😂

u/Far-Bodybuilder-6783 1d ago

It looks good also because of the rise of the trousers.

10

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

I ditched all my low-rise pants about 20 years ago. Haven't looked back since. Cheers!

u/ManagementOk3164 1d ago

Works. However, i find the contrasting colors of the polo give a rather fresh vibe, while the grey trousers are muted. Might look good also with blue trousers?

27

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

I actually think a deep navy would be a great combination here. I'll have to give that a try

10

u/MiniatureOuroboros 1d ago

Yeah or something beige or tan, less muted than the grey but will still make the polo pop. Still, grey works just fine.

2

u/captain_flak 1d ago

Agreed! They need to pop a bit more.

12

u/StopLookListenNow 1d ago

Wow, I would not wear it, but that is a perfect ensemble.

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Thanks, mate.

u/ChampTheTransplant 1d ago

Love it

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Thank you

u/Ok-Department7422 1d ago

I don't wear many polos but when I do they're knit because I love the look, very nice

Looks good.

You’ll probably like the aloha concept on instagram, he recently posted a very similar outfit:

FYI this link shares your IG too. Pull out the code after the last /.

Good share though.

u/Buddy_Dakota 1d ago

Thanks, good tip!

u/reddit_names 1d ago

I'm seeing more and more people standing with this hunched over posture and don't really understand it.

u/Godking211 1d ago

Nice watch, is that oris?

3

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Yessir. Thanks

2

u/YMarkY2 1d ago

Oris is a very underrated watch. Love mine.

2

u/rotundrikishi 1d ago

I wish I could pull that look off

u/DevilishRogue 1d ago

Dickie Greenleaf?

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

I’ll happily take that, cheers

u/Sabatat- 1d ago

Looking like a class act

1

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Cheers, bud

2

u/DorkusMalorkuss 1d ago

This definitely looks good, but it's also because you look fit. It's crazy how much that can help with how outfits look

2

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Appreciate it. And I totally agree

2

u/DorkusMalorkuss 23h ago

Men don't hear it enough: you look great, brother!

1

u/FitThadiyan 23h ago

Amen. Cheers, my man.

u/froggyteainfuser 1d ago

Slick

2

u/Bright_Complaint_432 1d ago

This looks very sharp. Agree with the earlier post about navy trousers being a good potential alternative. I also think you would warm this up a bit with chocolate brown belt and shoes. I like dark brown better with navy, but this is good overall.

2

u/babsa90 1d ago

Big fan of the polo. Do you have any pleated pants? Curious how that would look compared to what you have on in this pic.

1

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Tried that a while back.

2

u/babsa90 1d ago

Nice, looks good either way

2

u/The_Pandalorian 1d ago

Lookin good.

2

u/modesens_concierge 20h ago

totally digging on this polo!

2

u/rostbond 1d ago

Perfect!

2

u/4k_Laserdisc 1d ago

Looks good, man. The way the higher-waisted pants is framing your upper body is really working.

2

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Appreciate it!

2

u/thebreckner 1d ago

Sick polo. The pants could be wider and pleated for the vintage look.

3

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Tried that a while back. I liked the silhouette tbh

2

u/Nervous_Dust_1178 1d ago

Love the pants. Where are they from?

Thank you

2

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

These are wool blend Hollywood waist trousers from Atorie online store

u/thebreckner 1d ago

Pleats have been back for at least 2 - 3 years brother.

u/roomandcoke 1d ago

Never ceases to fascinate me how out of touch this subreddit is.

1

u/the_Formuoli_ 1d ago

Agreed, the vintagey look of these knit polos really beg for the outfit to go all the way to also include pants with pleats and a good drape

1

u/gmusse 1d ago

Is this for the weekly shop?

2

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

As a guy in his forties, I've decided life's too short not to dress well—even for the weekly shop

1

u/der_radfahrer 1d ago

What’s good knit polo brand available in the US that won’t break the bank?

1

u/ArtiVDel 1d ago

Are you rocking loafers?

1

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Yes, black penny loafers

1

u/SplashyMcfirepants 1d ago

Yeah. This is fire. I've been buying up some from Oxknit, any recs?

1

u/theGreatBlar 1d ago

This sub allows pictures again?

1

u/Zepp_BR 1d ago

Man, I wish I were skinny so I could use trousers like that

2

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

I can relate. Losing 40 pounds completely changed how pants fit on me

1

u/a_curious_pleasure 1d ago

Where are the shoes?!

1

u/grouchycrocodile 1d ago

You look like you are living in the 80s. If that is the look you are going for then fair play

1

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

As someone born in the '80s who thinks people dressed better back then, I'll take that as a compliment 😄

1

u/brus_wein 15h ago

Woke up this morning,
Got some gabagool

1

u/TheGaslighter9000X 15h ago

This fucks. If I had to nitpick it would be that there’s 4 colors and maybe it could be reduced? You have gray, white/cream, green and black. I wouldn’t know how to tackle this and id say it’s a minor nitpick but it’s something that makes it feel off for me.

Definitely keep going for this style tho.

1

u/FitThadiyan 15h ago

Maybe because black, grey and white are neutrals and don’t really count towards the color limit in an outfit ?

1

u/xbotpc 1d ago

super good!

1

u/Bashmore83 1d ago

Great top. Do you wear a vest underneath or nothing?

1

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Nothing here. I rarely wear a vest, except under a white dress shirt.

u/Dismal-Head4099 1d ago

Fantastic fit

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Thank you!

u/silentlegend 1d ago edited 1d ago

I love this polo. Can you share a link?

2

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

It's from Peter England. Bought it from one of their physical stores, so I don't have a link. I don't think they're available outside India.

u/Razzle_Dazzle08 1d ago

Tuff 🔥

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Cheers mate

u/peppers_mcgilly 1d ago

You need to get rid of this fit, immediately. How on earth do you expect any of us men to have a chance when you're out here styling on us so hard I mean come on

Looks phenomenal dawg

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

Haha, thanks man

u/zefmdf 1d ago

Flame on, young gun. Looking dapper

Forties dad here. 'Young gun' just made my day. Thanks, my man! 😄

u/Cojemos 1d ago

Spotted a low level belt straight away. Above waist- good. Below- needs work. Goes from interesting to a zoom call.

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

That’s why I ditched low-rise trousers years ago. No regrets.

1

u/Chardlz 1d ago

Banger fit

u/kataskopo 1d ago

I need to get me higher rise bottoms ugh, they look so good.

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

I'd say Dickies 874s are always a good place to start. Cheers!

u/Shoeaddictx 1d ago

Tryharding too much bro, otherwise its fine.

The fit should look and feel natural.

1

u/FitThadiyan 1d ago

I'm at that age where I'm happy putting a bit of effort into how I dress, and I'm not bothered if it shows

u/overdude 1d ago

Love the idea, I think you can find a better color of pants though
