Great videos man! I discovered the J. Crew fatigue pants through your videos & hunted a pair down since they weren’t available anymore. Recently found a new pair w/ tags on Depop for a steal! Love them

[@JamesHerlihy]

heck yeah! enjoy them dude!

[@sg2664]

Great, enjoyable authentic content. Terrific job!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thank you!

[@adamflores951]

Great video. You've def inspired some of my purchases this last year. (Such as the Kapital Monkey Ciscos) Love the trousers from Stoffa, I'll have to look into getting some. I love my Paraboots, they're great. Very versatile. I wear them to work everyday in the Spring/Summer and they look so nice with jeans as well. Break in period was a little rough for me but they're getting there.

[@JamesHerlihy]

That's great news. Love stoffa, definitely worth checking out.

[@shilahmontiel6248]

Highly agree on Paraboots. Michaels, Reims and Chambords are my weekly rotation. Also received the pair of Arpenteur Paraboots Chukkas for xmas and it's easily one of my favorite boots of all time. Used to be an Alden & Red Wing guy, never going back.

[@JamesHerlihy]

They are so great. I'm about to be like you and get a bunch of

Love the TF flannel. Might be my favorite clothing item I own.

So comfortable!!

Thank you for making great content - you've got great taste james

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thank you!

[@DMorgan77]

Glad you’re feeling better (or at least while filming). I agree with the intention aspect for my purchases this year too. I’m trying to stick to 10 purchases or less.

[@JamesHerlihy]

that's a great goal! im trying to do the same.

[@true2it940]

Love the content every time !!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Appreciate the love!

[@grahamparker5938]

Just got the orslows and man they rule, I’m typically wearing iron heart or samurai and the orslow are just an amazingly comfy and versatile piece.

[@JamesHerlihy]

You're making me conflicted! You like the orslo over the samurai fatigues!

[@dutswnw]

Highly recommend the samurai fatigue/baker pants. Got a pair from Mildblend last year. Fantastic!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Heck yeah!

[@johnschmid1296]

Great videos. We have very similar style and taste. I live in Chicago too! Anyways, look no further than this leather jacket: Self Edge/Iron Heart horse hide black battle edition jacket. I own that one and absolutely love it. The flannel liner and pockets make it a perfect jacket, IMO.

[@JamesHerlihy]

ill take a look! stay warm its terrible outside

[@johnschmid1296]

@@JamesHerlihythanks, you too!

[@poesaste]

Great video. Informale is fantastic, you might want to make sure what thickness you want for a cooler climate.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Good call, thanks for the heads up

[@aldoandre6600]

Great video as always man ! Are you now using the JMMs Zephirin,as in the thumbnail ?

[@JamesHerlihy]

I swap between a few pairs these and the Sheridan are my go toos

[@coupqi6508]

I've got the black Eddy jacket in another tab while watching. Anything that expensive you really need to try it on. I've tried it in a L (I'm 6'3 so not much help with sizing) and the buffalo leather is THICK and feels like it would outlive me.

[@JamesHerlihy]

I love that. I need to figure out the measurements.

[@acorrea023]

orSlow Slim Fit Fatigue Pants are so good! I have the green and looking to buy the black.

[@JamesHerlihy]

They are so perfect!

[@Mohjo99]

I just bought the ecru ones from a vendor in Korea bc I couldn’t find my size. Stunning marerial

[@sergioramirez1693]

Nephens and Paraboots i noticed was a uk thing. I remember tryna grab a pair back in 2016 then noticed they didn’t sell any in the states til i shopped around some stores that carry them.

[@JamesHerlihy]

That's a great boutique and can't wait for my pair of shoes.

[@pvva8911]

i have the eddy jacket from nudie, love it so much definitely recommend

How tall are you? And what size did you get!

Love love love your overshirt, where is it from?

[@JamesHerlihy]

It was a Throwing Fits collab from a few months ago. Googled throwing fits flannel and you could probably find it on Grailed or eBay.

[@freuday]

[@kenwatanabe2864]

Hey James. Have you tried on EG fatigues? Last year, I skipped on orslow fatigue and got EG instead. The quality is amazing. My only gripe with it is that I have to cuff it which is something I don't like to do. EG fatigue is tapered-cut just like orslow's but because the length is long I have to cuff it. Cuffing tapered pant ruins the silhouette IMO.

[@JamesHerlihy]

I have a pair of black one from EG they are ok. A bit more of a drop crotch than I like. I had them hemmed so the length isn't bad for me

[@tkeid01]

Where is the shirt you are wearing from please? I love the pattern!

[@JamesHerlihy]

It was a limited release with a podcast I follow called throwing fits. Super cozy

[@drlessismore]

I haven’t figured out why I enjoy your Chanel yet. We have opposite styles. Still subscribed 👍🏼

[@JamesHerlihy]

Maybe it's my magnetic personality 😂😂😂

[@drlessismore]

Yep. That it 😂

[@moart87]

Arpenteur Paraboots are sooo nice. Tad bit overpriced, but I think you’ll be able to get a lot of wear out of them.

[@JamesHerlihy]

I think they are so beautiful!

[@a.s.2426]

James, You going to go MTO and/or MTM on the Stoffa trousers?

[@JamesHerlihy]

I'll prob do MTM but we will see. I just needed to buy a tux so I'm set back a few months

[@sergiuveredin4729]

You can check some coats from German brand A kind of guise

[@JamesHerlihy]

Love this! thanks for the rec

[@johnschmid1296]

Paraboot Michaels are the best shoes of all time. You could just own that one shoe and be good. I have even hiked in mine.

[@JamesHerlihy]

such a great shoe!

Love this thing!

[@markom6924]

Where's the flannel you're wearing from?

[@matthogan506]

Its from the podcast Throwing Fits. This is the Shadow Plaid flannel. They launch singular items periodically. It's a great (douchey, but funny) podcast that does make awesome products when they do release them!

I really want JMM glasses, but they're a bit too expensive for me... :/

They are great! Heat thing to save for.

You consume too much. You should try to find happiness in the things you own already and consider CO2-emissions of your lifestyle.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thanks for the advice!

[@a.s.2426]

What’s the metric for “too much”?
