Slouch boots seem to be a cross between chukka boots and cowboy boots, which is currently a popular classic look. Another great quality of a vintage boot is there's a good chance they're hand made. The reason this Fashionisto's slouch boots have lasted this long is because they were well made.
This Fashionisto’s olive green pants are feature a skinny fit. These pants are skin tight and serve as a great transition garment from the slouch boot. Skinny pants illustrate a slender look that's very visually appealing. His skinny pants allow for a looser shirt to balance out volume proportions. His shirt is wrinkled and rugged meaning it's strategically ripped and disfigured like this one by Diesel Black Gold.
