i was at one point seduced by noah's (2017?) look book because the stuff they were peddling gave me a way to "dress like an adult" while still engaging in current trends (wide fit, ankle length chinos being the big one) which at that point had already hit critical mass for certain audience...

how come wearing a bb ocdb with jpress/babenzien-jcrew chinos and weejuns loafers in 2022 is 'neo-prep' but wearing an ocdb with crusty 511s in 2008 was not/is not 'neo-prep'

isn't wearing an ocdb with twill chinos and loafers, all made by heritage brands, just regular prep

how does everyone feel about the ubiquity of babenzien prep looks in menswear in the year 2022 (post-skate in the parlance of care-tags 1.0)

i think we should remove posting entirely. the forum should just be a list of usernames with upvote and downvote buttons next to them. people browsing the forum are allowed to upvote or downvote each user one time every 24 hrs

i throw tons of money at different types of pants only to always rediscover that im not better than a pair of darkrinse levi's 501s. sure 501s look like ass at first but once you break them in theyre essentially perfect and you can completely stop thinking about pants, which for me is the end goal i...

i feel like slim fit denim technology has regressed rapidly since the Golden Age of Slim Fit (the early 10s). The golden ratio used to be 99% cotton 1% elastane because the denim still looked and felt like denim at that ratio but now everything seems to be some weird "flex" blend with larg...

everyone in my city is excited for next week when it will "warm up" to a balmy -11C also im pretty sure its impossible to dress cool in these temps. you basically need to be wearing every warm article of clothing you own under a ski parka and you need to wear either snowpants or long johns...

lord of the flies
