Nick Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 You can spend your money on what you want, I just don't understand why you would want to wear anything from the website. Apart from it being overpriced, those t-shirts look shit. Well, they would look shit on me, and most people I know, the only people that can get away with it are really toned Geordie Shore types. If it wasn't for the fact it had been taken by the gym boys/meat-head demographic, it would be a staple at the gay clubs, and probably was 10 years ago, before it became associated with wannabe fake tanned roid monkeys. Which is all fine if you want to look like them, I am pretty sure they get a lot more women than I do/ever did, just don't be surprised in a few years time when you look back at those photos and think, what the fvck was I wearing.
ScouseFox Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Decent jeans, nice, casual shirt and some shoes. Trainers on a night out in town is a poor, poor effort.
Captain... Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 I agree with that, I adhere to dress codes at racecourses and cricket etc but there is no need in town. I'll often wear a suit out though with no tie and a good belt, it's a really smart look. It can be, but it just looks like people have finished work and taken their tie off, I don't enjoy wearing a suit for work (when I had to) so wearing it for a night out does nothing for me.

If you wear a good shirt and belt and it won't look like that. You can usually tell the ones who have finished work by the unshined shoes and Next shirt hanging off them.
Babylon Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Can I also add people in suits to my list. Mostly the ones in the morning on their way to work at the estate agents, thinking they are Gordon Gecko on the way to Wall Street.... you're an estate agent, you over gelled haired **** in your shit burtons suit.

My list is quite short: Anyone who uses what they wear as an extension of their personality.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 My list is quite short: Anyone who uses what they wear as an extension of their personality. Isn't that everyone, to at least some degree? Or do you only like people in uniforms?
Guest MattP Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 My list is quite short: Anyone who uses what they wear as an extension of their personality. That was pretty much Hitler's policy wasn't it?
Unabomber Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Decent jeans, shirt, desert boots. Might swap the jeans for dockers occasionally.

May I make one exception to that? I do like a woman dressed in a smart suit... Something about authority maybe? Dunno...
Captain... Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Isn't that everyone, to at least some degree? Or do you only like people in uniforms? Not really a uniform man, more of a naturist, let it all hang out. Of course to some extent your personality affects what clothes you buy and wear, but it is people who deliberately wear certain types of clothes so that people will think they are, Kooky, Funny, Cool. You can add Goths and Punks and anyone else who thinks dressing like every other "individual" makes you an "individual". That was pretty much Hitler's policy wasn't it? Have I gone so far to the left I have popped up on the far right again, really must be careful with my extreme ideals. I don't think everyone should look the same, I appreciate truly unique and individual styles, but they are very few and far between, I guess it comes down to the fact that when I meet someone I don't want to have any preconceptions, I want to be surprised when they say I like Heavy Metal, but you look so normal. Clothes for me really are function over form, as long as they cover my bits and keep me warm, I really don't care that much.
purpleronnie Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 What are Daps? Edit: Googled: Welsh for 'plimsoles' - genuinely never heard that before! I really hope fin isnt wearing plimsoles on a night out.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Good pair of jeans Calvin Klein black shirt Smart black shoes Fake tan.... open shirt and gold medallion aswell hey Col . . . . . . . .
Yojoe36 Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Everyone who wears ankle length chinos looks like an utter pr|ck. Either their Mum's bought them a size too small, or they're just clueless twats. What happened to having just a shirt (a real shirt, not a rag), trousers and smart shoes? I guess that became a challenge for some people. Look on a website called eachtotheirown.co.uk I buy most of my t-shirts from there. No offense mate, but I havn't the words to describe... whatever this is:
RonnieTodger Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Shirt, chinos/jeans, canvas shoes (good ones) and a few sprays of aftershave. I also wear black ear studs and thread bracelets . I'm also in need of a new wardrobe though to be honest. Got to go for a big old shop soon.

Finnegan Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 I really hope fin isnt wearing plimsoles on a night out. If I'm bar hopping or hitting clubs with my usual mates I'll go out in daps / plimmies, aye. You'd look a nob wearing a pair of tidy shoes or boots somewhere like Electric Ballroom, Frog or Roxy. Or at least, you'd probably get away with it in Roxy these days as it's a bit indie chic. Obviously if I was off somewhere a bit less alternative I'd slap on my shoes but if they aren't necessary I'll take comfort over looking vaguely smarter any day.
Webbo Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Depends where you're going. If I'm going somewhere posh I'd feel self conscious and scruffy in jeans . Tbf I do get my jeans from ASDA.

Man, no wonder people point at me when I wear my saville row suit to mcdonalds.
Haydos Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 I have one: I'm not sure many gay blokes would be caught dead in that!
Guest Col city fan Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 open shirt and gold medallion aswell hey Col . . . . . . . . I do actually wear a little bling innit... (silver) As you can imagine, mi mates rip the piss for that..
MooseBreath Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Man, no wonder people point at me when I wear my saville row suit to mcdonalds. They're probably staring at your erection.
Guest Col city fan Posted 5 September 2012 Posted 5 September 2012 Anyone old enough to remember burgundy stay press and 'waffles'? Don't laff but I also used to own a pair of Dunlop Green Flash.... And as for 'legwarmers'.... Well
