Let's Talk About... Clothes

[eversio11]

I'm not sure how much into this kind of thing you guys will be, but I enjoy clothes. Nice clothes. Clothes that look good. I don't care, you can make your judgements, but if I'm materialistic about anything, it's clothing.

All my jeans are from either Express or Gap, they just look and fit so nicely.

T-shirts are the one area I really don't care where they're from, most of my shirts are band / concert tees, or some cheap ones from Target or something. I have a few t-shirts from H&M and Urban Outfitters, but they can be pretty expensive there for just a shirt.

I'm not really a fan of button up long sleeze shirts, but any ones I have are from Gap.

As for jackets, I've had one from Urban Outfitters that I'm in love with. I think this year it might not actually fit, but whatever. Other than that, I like to get a nice black, wool jacket from Gap or something.

Sweatshirts and Hoodies are some of my favorite things to wear, I have this really nice, thick one from Urban Outfitters that I wear constantly. It was actually in the new War of the Worlds movie, it's the brown one that Tom Cruise's black friend is wearing while they first see the tripod in that town. Look for it next time.

As for shoes, I'm not really big into having different pairs and matching them with what I wear. I have black dress shoes for dressy ocassions, and a pair of black Asics for everything else.

So, let's hear it.

I really don't care about clothes. I pretty much buy my stuff at value city. I usually wear khakis or jeans and as for shirts i either wear a shirt (like one that has buttons) or collered T-shirt or sweater. This summer I worked for as a consultant and our dress code said that I have to wear either a shirt from that company or from one of our vendors. So I ended up getting like 7 shirts for free.

Not much of a label basher myself. Got some cheap jeans (one pair black, mint condition, one pair faded, torn at the knees with patches due to age), some nice adidas. Don't care about t-shirts really. Got my nice Nismo jacket and 2 more of unknown brand, and planning on getting a nice Huffer (NZ label) hoodie, but they're pretty expensive. Wanna stock up on the NZ labels before I go overseas though.

Nice clothes are different than everyday clothes. As they say dress to impress, this basically applies to girls and job interviews. I've got a couple really nice suits and a bunch of nice shirt/ties/suspendors. But my everyday clothes basically consist of jeans and t-shirts all from marshalls or tj-max. Then got a few long-sleeved shirts and a few hoodies. But clothes are way too fucking expensive to be spending 60-80 on a pair of jeans and 20-40 on a god damned t-shirt. Peace-

These days, I find I am too old and too married to care too much about how I look.
So long as my clothes are comfortable and are appropriate for the situation, I'm good to go.

I like to look good. I like Polo (brand name and style) shirts, sneakers to match or compliment my outfit, nice t-shirts and other stuff. I had fallen into the married-guy bum look but my wife told me I looked awful too many times; I had to step my game up a bit. I'm not a metrosexual but I like to look nice. I don't spend a lot of money on what I wear. I like thrift stores and garage sales in better neighborhoods. Value City, T.J. Maxx, and A.J. Wright are my favorite haunts for cheap yet fashionable (enough for me) clothes. I'm a skinny guy so my clothes help in my appearance Old Navy has the best clearance rack in the world: $3 jeans, you just can't go wrong!!

I generally like to take interest in clothes and what I wear and since I've dropped a clothes size I'm about to buy a whole lot more, but......

For Jeans I like Levis or Diesel (Levis, while I believe is a pretty down to earth working mans brand in the States is generally pretty fashionable in the rest of the world), my favourite jeans at the mo are the 570 cut (The Slouch straight), they fit perfectly no other word for it really, incredibly comfortable.

T Shirts, I just buy these from Barkers or Meccano which are NZ menswear stores about the equivalent of the GAP or Abercrombie. I also have a few Bolle and Calvin Klein T's because they really look damned nice. I go for Surfwear T's like Billabong/Rip Curl/Quicksilver I suppose, but not as much as I used to. I wear polo shirts a bit too, Ralph Lauren pwns at those.

I only have one jacket, which is from Rodd and Gunn (Another NZ Menswear store, this one's more outdoors/casual) it's awesome, it looks good but is also water proof and warm and only cost NZ$300

I don't care much for sweatshirts, I have wool jerseys or Zip up sweatshirts. Only other thing I wear is long sleeve button shirts- all from Barkers or Meccano, might get a really good one from Armani Jeans or something if I find something in the sales.

Shoes? I have one pair for dress, one for casual/every day (Air Force ones, GREAT shoes), one for running, one for long walks and I think that's it.


I hate cheap clothes like Hallensteins etc, all the crap assed polyester makes you feel like shit. If isn't 100% Cotton (Unless it's wool, then a little arcryllic doesn't matter), I won't buy it.

[ToyTundra]

Pants: Shorts: Cargo from Pac Sun or Northface. Long: some semi baggy jeans (dunno brand), preppy Gap jeans, dockers for dressy occasions

Shoes: only nike sneakers all other brands are too wide, and New balance hurts my toes

Shirts: Mostly Bananna Republic T shirts with a mix of target brand for those messy jobs. Somtimes a sweater durring the winter. I stay away from anything with buttons unless it can't be avoided

Jacket: A Mountain hardware fleece/jacket for most of the winter for me. Sometime a hoodie, but i feel too white to wear one.

I like nice clothes too

I'd say about 80% of my cloths are from Khol's. I really don't care about name brands or anything. If it's comfortable and looks okay, I'll wear it.

Speaking of clothing...I went into Abercrombie a while back with a lady friend of mine. I was looking around and I saw some jeans that had paint and dirt and rips all over on them, basically they look like the jeans I wear when I'm working around the house or after paintballing. I checked out the price...$80?!?!?!?!?! WTF is up with that?!?!? So if anyone wants some dirty jeans shoot me a PM I'll give ya a great deal compared to that $80.

I pretty much wear the same as you. Jeans and shirts from Express. I have a pair of jeans and a brown jacket from The Buckle. Probably get some hoodies from there this fall.

Shoes I usually go to Journey's. Steve Madden's, Adidas, etc. I need some new ones. Got my Kenny Coles for my nice dress. Really need a few more. Finding dress shoes that fit nice are hard when you have as narrow of a foot as mine. So in that category the best fitting are only the more expensive, which does suck.

Not to diss anyone if it's your style, but the popped collar looks stupid.

Shirts: All about the T-shirts. Not really a long sleeve guy since I'm 6' 5" and its hard to find ones that fit without being to big around. I like tight fitting shirts that of a decent length. Ecko, Adidas, Timberland to name a few

Jeans/Shorts: Couple of khacki shorts, but quite a few baggy jeans (not huge ass ones though)

Jacket: $75 jacket Quiksilver

Shoes: Same probably finding the ones I really want in a 14 or 15. Red White and BLue adidas's for most of the time. 2 year old blue and white worn converse (ol' buddies) mostly used for driving.

Acc: Silver Necklace

I love my gap worker jeans. Once they break in they are totally awesome. However, I wear them way too much and unforunately they wear out pretty fast Oh well I have gift cards so I can just buy more.
