How fucked must your sense of style be to think this is a cool jacket?
>>18657566Not gonna lie that does look cool
>>18657622Would combine nicely with Cargos and leather black 90s Air Max
>>18657566Isn't that a RO inspired piece? Didn't this board used to have a massive hard on for Rick owens? I never understood it. Too out there for my taste.
>>18657566I dont get why they call it a 'zara' jacket, isn't zara just ripping off other designs? Who made the original? Anyway it's -30 where im at right now so while I think it silly and too cropped that high collar would be real nice to have (I use scarfs as I'm white)
It doesn’t look bad, but it looks like something from the 2010s.>ZaraCould have even told me it was from H&M. It’s the same shit.
Do you think that a person needs to be a fan of the band, or should people be able to wear whatever band tee that they want?
>>18633880What about this one ?
>>18657552I always liked this one. I used to see it in an ad in guitar world magazine in the 2000s and wish I had a credit card. no, mom wouldn't let me use hers
>>18644250spoken like someone who doesn't actually go to galleries and bases their opinion from internet articles. how pedestrian
>>18657729Galleries are for pompous dweebs and Jews.
Convince me not to get it. It's so loud but I'm so close.
>>18657300Kek the style really isn't that great, I think the whole background of the image sells it. Also I don't get the respect Baracuta holds, it's sucking polyester. They're getting away with murder at those prices
>>18657281its based but needs patches get a giant trex
>>18657592you're a fucking retard
>>18657742give me one iconic quote by Steve McQueenYou can't, he just an indefinite blob of a cultural "icon".
>>18657742He’s right. They’re nothing. They’re just admired by old men and awkward classic movie geeks. Same with Led Zepplin.
>pic related >u need more?
>>18657726it's like boomers and velcro. no need to tie laces>t. middle aged millennial that wears chelsea boots
>>18657668I need the fit to be good, at the bare minimum, so this isn't enough.
>>18657675I look like pic related but I'm like 30% body fat. What do?
It looks so 40 year old.
>>18657709This
NO FUN ALLOWED.
>>18657185I have a raging boner, can't wait that my GF give me a BJ
>>18657073>my wife's boyfriend coreThat would be this.
>>18652680It is cringe when people try to look older than they are, or when an older person tries to look younger. Wearing this kind of shit as a 35 year old white guy is no longer LARPing. You're just dressing how you should as an established, mature male. I used to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm when I was 14 and dream about being able to dress like that. It feels amazing now that it's here for me.
>>18657818There’s dressing like your age and then there’s dressing like a “distinguished” square like Mr. Rogers or like a dad who smells like sandalwood. This board is obsessed with dressing like a stereotype. Watches, perfumes, “classy” boots, rolled jeans, and probably thinks a cigar and a whiskey is attractive. No need to dress like a DAD or an MSNBC crime drama cop.
>>18657674What a sad picture. Not only can you tell this woman does not respect him, you can also tell he is not worthy of respect.
Would you consider these people ugly enough that no amount of clothes will truly make you look good? How do you know if you're fucking ugly and you shouldn't wear shit like this?
>>18657603The guy on left is good looking. Stop being so fucking insecure improving yourself is never a bad thing.
>>18657607What's wrong with the guy on the right though?
>>18657603No
>>18657603Guy on the left looks like Mr Bean. I wouldn't call either ugly but the one on the right does kind of unnerve me.
Why is the quality military surplus so fucking bad? Bought an authentic miliatry Parka and it doesn't keep you warm.
>>18657643>>18657689The truth is really somewhere in the middle. Military people like to complain/joke about stuff being built by the lowest bidder, but it's really the lowest bidder that meets or exceeds certain standards and requirements, and sometimes those standards are higher than typical civilian stuff. Sometimes stuff is junk but other times you end up with really nice stuff like Arcteryx backpacks and so on. Also, a lot of people buying their own stuff isn't so much because the issue gear is low quality, it's often just that it's designed around different needs and priorities (durability instead of comfort for example, you see that a lot with boots in particular) or it's just kind of outdated since it takes ages for new stuff to be approved, procured, and issued.
>>18657639I'm not sure exactly what you mean by parka. Whether it keeps you warm or not also depends on it's use. For example, some of the "Cold Weather Gear" tops are primarily outer shells for layering, not supposed to be worn by themselves as what keeps you from being cold by itself. A lot of the stuff is supposed to be worn in a specific way.>>18657643This is somewhat true. Everything I've been issued has been for the most part good enough. The only things I've purchased to replaced what I have been issued was socks, underwear, sleep map, gloves, and hygiene bag. I also purchased boots specifically for rucking, but the issued boots are good enough for day to day stuff. A lot of people have their feet messed up by the issued boots because the people at BCT a lot of the times just look at your feet and guess your boot size. If you try to say they don't fit, they just say "they will fit" and move you along lol>>18657754It really depends on which layer the guy is talking about, but a lot of the time you're first supposed to have silkies or waffles under your OCP top, then a jacket of some kind. I don't know the full cold weather gear layering method since I've never been to JPMRC or any super cold place, so I never take out my cold weather gear.
Why is this board obsessed with military parkas? You fags look like H&M from 2012.
>>18657639Military surplus is a rather general term covering gear from different countries and time periods, which can be of various qualities. Specific gear can also be a hit or miss design when it comes to popularity nf standing the test of time.Usually we think of cold war era gear which was made for much larger armies (soldiers in the hundreds of thousands or millions) and low tech material. Surplus from the 2000s GWOT and onwards are generally of better quality and designed with more consideration for the user, with the trend being smaller, but better trained and equipped armies.
>>18657639If it's relatively modern US gear it's only a single layer of a set. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Cold_Weather_Clothing_SystemYou probably want to use some layers anyways.

Going to buy knock-off Clinch hi-liners if this chink company can modify their last for an EE width. Will let you guys how they turn out in a couple months.
Be honest. How many of you still wear skinny jeans just to cuff them and show your mature and classy boots?

It's the infamous "performative male".Add a book and a latte and people will literally shit on you IRL.
Performative male. It’s just the evolution of the millenial hipster with a bit of sleeaze and scum thrown in. If you look like this you are an NPC hylic for sure.

How would you style a shirt like this for a casual setting?I'm thinking chinos or jeans for the pants, but I'm not sure what kind of footwear would go best with this.This is the link to the shirt if anyone is interested: https://www.fredperry.com/us/men/polo-shirts/m3-m3-100.html
>>18656701>>18657042>>18657119I've been wearing these and chinos, but I feel like its not the best fit. What do you guys think? Would something like Adidas Stan Smiths fit better?
>>18656301I'm going for a more casual look though.
>>18657341Frankly I'd go more with a dress shoe than an athletic shoe. With that particular polo I'd wear black chinos or trousers and black monkey boots to go with it. Monkey boots are so under appreciated. Another possibility are black leather high top chucks.
>>18657341I don’t even like regular polo shirts. I only wear knit polo sweaters and technical golf shirts so I only wear loafers or golf shoes with them. If you are going to wear regular polos I would say classic NBs like this are ok, but loafers, boat shoes, camp mocs, or maaaaybe some white classic tennis trainers would be better. I wouldn’t wear anything dressy like the other guy said. Polo shirts are a casual item so they should be worn with casual footwear imo.
>>18657343To me a polo isn't really casual, it's more a replacement for a long sleeve shirt when it would be too warm for one since I live in Florida.
>somewhat bulky not quite jacked>compact midface >button nose>stachehave some gen x/millennial phenotypes just disappeared and have been replaced by new ones without explanation?
>>18657587>prime is when ur a Chad football quarterback and high sperm count
>>18656842he brutally mogs that repulsive pig. why are men lowering their standards so dramatically?
>>18657610Yes
>>18657587It substantially predates Hollywood though, you see the same thing in literature and other stuff at least as far back as the 18th century. Most of the leading men in Jane Austen's novels are in their late 20s to late 30s for example, while the women are significantly younger.
>>18656954>She has a 10/10 bodyShe's clearly fat
I'm already thinking of a new spring-summer scent. I sampled Montblanc's "Explorer". Tell me what I thought of it.
>>18649821i don't like it, just get starwalker and thank me later
where do you guys go to test frags? is it not niche enough if you can get it off the wall at sephora?
>>18649821 It does have that manly fresh profile we see on most fresh/aquatic frags, but with a bit of spice to make it not so boring and distinct from others. It is very much like Sauvage and Acqua di Gio Profondo but this has more of a personality and doesn't feel as fresh as AdG.>>18650610It would be reduntant if you already have Sauvage, it's like a tamer and more well-rounded Sauvage Elixir>>18650355Montblanc is very fancy, Legend Spirit smells like a million dollars after the initial blast. I've tried both at a Montblanc store at the mall so there you go >>18655998 but they also had this at Sephora, where I test frags the most. The Montblanc store made me feel poor because I asked if they had discounts and the lady went serious and said "of course not, we don't do sales"
