Bash looks absolutely authentic, impressed with the zoot suit and the zoot brim - that must be over 3 inches! classy-

Its not a zoot suit just a DB suit. The hat is 2 3/4 inches wide.

I'm kidding... enjoy it. You have an unending supply of vintage suits at that size. We of a certain age and unavoidable spread are just envious. I'm also envious of your photographer. Those looks really amazing.

Do not complain! I remember being 180 when I went into the army and wanting to hit 200. Well I hit and never looked backed:eusa_doh: .

The hat and the suit look awesome! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap That is my favorite style pinstripe although I can't find it anywhere. I also like the pinch and crease in the hat! I like the setting too!

OK, OK just a great pic and outfit!:eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Yeah, that was me until I turned 28 or so, and got married . . . [huh]

That look couldn't suit you more if your last name was Cagney. :eusa_clap

metropd, Great outfit! Everything about it is superb. I have just one request. Please post a new pic of you in that same outfit, once every ten years!

You really are sharp brother. I agree with Bob, time will put the weight on for you. I wish I could still fit in the first vintage suits I bought.

I've found that putting on the weight has a lot more to do with women than time. When I was single I was thin, not because I was working out but I just didn't eat as much. Sometime I would just forget too. My wife never lets me skip a meal, when it's time to eat it's time to eat dag nabbit! ;)

Well, I definitely haven't lost much since I tied the knot! If our friend keeps going out dressed like that, he might not be able to fit into his suits anymore either. :eek:
