As A Dad I Want to Look My Best @LandsEnd #dadchat

April 4, 2013 by dadofdivas 1 Comment

landsend1.jpgAs a dad and as a man, I want to look good, not only for myself, but for my family and so that my girls can see that I take pride in how I look and so should they. This has been a bit of a reversal over the years as for many years I had the same clothes that I had been wearing for years, and I kept these clothes as long as I could to make sure that I did not have to spend my money unwisely. Now I see the error of my ways and look for clothes that are of high quality construction and that will last for a long time, but also will maintain the look that I want to maintain for a long time.

Some of this has come about because of the work that I do on a daily basis. Working in a university setting where I have to wear a suit and tie everyday, I know that I am in the spotlight and I also see many of the professionals at higher levels than myself dressing like this too, which is always a good incentive for a person as well.

So you can probably guess that I was pretty excited when I was asked my Lands End to try out one of their new shirts. I have been aware of Lands End for some time, and their name to me has always been one that I attributed to high quality. One of the other things though that Lands End means to me personally is customizability. Why do I say this you may ask. Well… as a shorter gentleman, I find it very difficult to find clothes that fit well. I usually cannot go into stores and find a wide array of shorts in my size and don’t get me started on pants. With that being said, Lands End is great because I can custom order specific sized clothes and know that they will come to me with no strings attached. On top of this Lands End has a great return policy so if clothes do not fit right, you can return them easily!

On top of this Lands End always has great sales going on so you can find some great deals. I went on today and found over 40 coupons that could be used online available…talk about great deals.

I mentioned that I had been asked to check out Land End’s new Polo line. Lands End came up with the perfect way to allow a man to pick the right polo for themself and on top of this they have a great line of Polo Shirts to choose from available in short-sleeve for under $50 and long-sleeve for under $75 including:

  • Dressiest – Supima Polo – Upscale style made from America’s finest cotton for smooth, soft results that look great.
  • Coolest – Dri-Release Polo – Made for a day on the golf course or any summer day because the special pique wicks moisture away for hours of comfort.
  • The Classic – Mesh Polo – Textured ringspun combed cotton offers years of wear.
  • Most Casual – Super-T Polo – Just as comfortable in fit and fabric but with a stylish collar.
  • Sportiest – Rugby Polo – With game-inspired details like rubber buttons, twill collar and underarm air vent for cooling.

They also just released an infographic that helps you choose which of the above is right for you!

I decided to try out the Men’s Regular Long Sleeve Stripe Zip Rugby.

What I loved about this shirt was that not only was it of high quality construction, but on top of this it was warm. I also loved the zip up front that provided a different look depending on whether you had it up or down. As I Said before I want to look good, and I have to say that through shirts like this and so much more on the Lands End site, I am continually reminded about this and encouraged to continue coming back for more from this company in the future as I know that I can expect great things from them now and in the future and you will be able to as well.

Time to Suit Up Men – Lands’ End Dress Clothes

February 17, 2010 by dadofdivas 2 Comments

On a daily basis, I work in a profession that requires me to dress up, wearing the proverbial Business Dress Clothes to the office. I do not mind this at all, but being a short man, I have to say that it is not always easy to find dress clothes that fit the right way.

In saying this, think about it, there are Big and Tall stores and sections in stores, but how often do you find a short and small store, that’s right, you don’t.

In a recent “How I met Your Mother” episode, the character of Barney sings about that he would not trade anything for his suits and calls all to suit up. In following his example I contacted Lands’ End about the opportunity to try out their Men’s Dress Line of clothes and I was happy to get interest form their end. So thanks to Lands’ End, I have some new dress clothes that are high quality and fit great. If you never saw the musical interlude, I think you will enjoy it so I included it below:

Lands End sent me the following for my dress ensemble.

  1. Men’s Regular Tailored Fit 2-button Yes ‘Rounder Suitcoat 
  2. Men’s Regular Plain Front Tailored Fit Pattern Wrinkle Resistant Year’rounder Dress Pants 
  3. Men’s Medium Wingtip Shoes 
  4. Men’s Regular Repp Racing Stripe Necktie
  5. Men’s Regular Circle Links Necktie  
  6. Men’s Regular Long Sleeve Tailored Fit Pattern Straight Collar No Iron Pinpoint Dress Shirt

My take on the items was that they fit wonderful and as J-Mom stated, they made me look good as well (but I will leave that up to all of you to see what you think about that). I was impressed by the quality of the items. The coat and pants were 100% wool and were light and comfortable to wear. The Neckties were 100% silk and were great and could be worn with many types of shirts (you might guess that I like good looking ties!).

As I mentioned I am always looking for ways to be able to find clothes that fit and one thing that I did like about the clothes at Lands’ End was that you could get almost any size that you needed. This was especially true with pants where you are asked for not only your waist size but also your inseam so that the pants will fit perfectly. Granted you will need to have these lengths for your order, but it is not too difficult to find.

Lands’ End has a wonderful array of clothing for men, women and children that I would whole heartily recommend. While I hadn’t had a lot of opportunities to have Lands’ End clothes before, I will definitely be looking for other clothes in the future.
