I used to wear a dress clothes to work every day.
Now I have one black suit. If you want to see it you need to get married, sue me or die. |
|
I have two suits and a tuxedo.
I don't need suits for my job and events I wear dresswear to are slowly coming to a trickle. |
|
Most people have no need for that stuff.
I'm a man. I'm already married. I'm not trying to impress anyone with my clothes and I wear a uniform to work. I try to keep at least one or two pairs of non grease stained shorts and jeans, otherwise the wife gets on my case when we go out somewhere. The holy and grease stained stuff suffices most days. Rather spend the money in fun stuff. People in my AO don't wear fancy clothes. |

OP at 32 the trendy dress for going out is jeans, button down, no tie, sport coat. Casual classy.
Brown dress shoes are for the birds - Allen Edmonds or black. |

Lol, playing dressup. If khaki work pants and a button up shirt aren’t good enough, I don’t know what to tell ya.

Swear to God I've never heard so many men complain about dressing well. You'd think that it was a punishment. A well fitting suit or for that matter a blazer and slacks are just clothing. Like jeans and a tee shirt. No harder to wear really. And frankly, some of you incels might get laid a little more often if you put ON a suit once in awhile.

If I don’t like looking nice and wearing nice clothes when I go out, neither should you. You’re a pussy if you dress professionally and LIKE to look good. Your wife should also look like a trashy slut. You also get points taken away if your house is clean. And stop noticing other people that look nice, you fucking homo. |

Black, double breasted (meaning two rows of buttons), wool jacket with an extra large collar issued by many navies for generations. They're great in bad weather. Kharn |

Form = function.
I don't see that a suit has any function. Ties signify nothing, whatever meaning they had is gone. I'd guess that some new style will emerge which does have function. Jeans are poor at their function. The material is uncomfortable, it's low-tech cotton usually, often too heavy of a fabric weight, badly designed and insufficient pockets, usually a bad fit especially in the crotch and hips, and various other function faults. They'll have to evolve or also die out. I prefer the Kuhl lineup. They have usable cell phone pockets, many materials and weights, better fitting, not ponderous like most Carrhartts, etc. |

Other than that I'm with you, most of the time clothes need to do their job first before looking good, but lots of stuff does both. |

Part of me growing up was to know how to change a flat. Address people as Sir and Ma'am. Carry a knife. Have a nice wallet with $100 tucked inside. Know how to tie your own lure. Take care of your tools. Have a nice watch. Know which utensil to use. To eat your steak medium-rare at most. How to enjoy bourbon. How to enjoy wine. Know which direction is north. Hold the door open for anyone, especially women. Rotate your ties. Own a sport coat. Own a suit.
I'll be 40 next year and I still think all that matters. GD is such a spaghetti of not knowing what they truly want. Its either a race to be the less caring and cheapest or to be the most opulent. If someone doesn't agree with the way one feels then that makes that person some sorta troglodyte in their narrow world. I like nice clothes. I love well fitted jacket, shirt, jeans, nice shoes, all that stuff. I love the confidence it gives me and how people look at me, especially the women-folk. That's it. That's all there is to it for me. If you think that makes me a Yes Man, Boomer, or whatever stupid fucking term that GD wants to latch onto this quarter then that's on you -- GD loves its wide, broad brushes. |

Beat college professor I had was a dude that wore shorts and sandals to teach. It was statistics and he said don't believe the stats the media and leftists feed you. And don't believe stats if they won't provide a data sheet.

Seersucker and a boater hat, anything else is too hot or formal.

View Quote I'm pushing 40, and it's odd how I've changed over time. I used to try to be a grey man in most events, just hang out and get through it. After being self employed for so long now I always end up moving towards the center for most groups or events I'm in. I enjoy conversation, and attention, and can find something in common with most people I talk to. We went and did a bunch of stuff this weekend a few hours away, I talked to tons of people about all kinds of stuff. |

What are these things - "Suit", "Sport Jacket" ?
Gen-X'er, if I had to go to a funeral I don't know what I'd do. Let my wife dress me or something. Short sleeve button down and levis is the best you get out of me. |

No im a retired boomer.

View Quote Around here the kids wear them to look cool, and the ignorant adults wear them as some sort of badge of honor, like proving that they work hard or something. Half the town works construction and we all know each other, there's no reason to wear your shit covered boots to a calling hours, and on the off chance that you somehow can't afford clean shoes, at least make an effort to clean the boots you are wearing up a little. I did the same thing as a kid, wore my huge work boots everywhere. I learned fast once I actually started working that you buy the comfy ones that don't look badass to get through the day feeling good, and you still toss the fuckers on the porch the first possible second you can and put on some comfy shoes if you don't need them. |
