It's worth mentioning there are a lot of different degrees of "skinny jeans", too.

if a jealous non skinny jeans wearer hasn't accused you of wearing leggings, it's not skinny jeans

but what if i'm already wearing leggings

listen it's not like they're actually leggings they're for running okay get off my back

 

[giga]

speaking of ball huggers, uniqlo heattech tights were some of the most comfortable things my legs and butt have ever felt. can't recommend enough for winter and if you have lady/man friends who want a good view.

 

[jesalr]

I can't wear skinny jeans, my legs are fine, but my torso is thick. It looks like an oddly tapered photograph.

Slim it is.

I've got a pair of new balance running leggings, so comfy and warm

 

[LeroyPantwether]

Good man.

Fucking skinny jeans, such a cheesy fad that people will look back on with embarrassment.

Don't get me started on the fake rips, so lame.

Post a fit pic of your jeans. I would like to see what you prefer as an alternative to skinny jeans .

 

[NinjaBoiX]

And this "fad" has been going on for decades lol

I mean "fad" as in the ubiquitous nature of the trend, just about everyone wears them these days, as if they're standard issue.

Case in point, anything other than the uniform being described as "alternative".

I dunno man, just normal jeans. Not baggy, not skin tight, just jeans.

I'm short and stocky, I couldn't pull skinny jeans off even if I wanted to.

 

[giga]

Not everyone else is short and stocky. If skinny jeans work for other people with different body types, then I see no problem with recommending them. No need to denigrate it as cheesy and embarrassing.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Didn't know where else to ask this. I have a date tonight and I got some cologne. Where do you guys typically apply it?

 

[Oxn]

Short and stocky sucks for wearing a nice slim suit.

Even short is bad.

One spray on your wrists, then dab on the sides of your neck.

I have a pretty strong cologne for the evening, so I only spray on one wrist, dab on the other, then on the sides of my neck.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I bought Cool Water, which a lot of sites seemed to recommend.

I have a sample set of Atelier cologne for day-to-day use (they're all citrus scents), and Yves Saint Laurent for any evening events and for fall/winter.

I'm looking to get another cologne, but I'm really picky. I'm not in any rush though. lol

 

[LyleLanley]

Is cool water still popular? I remember it was the cologne of choice about a decade ago.

 

[freenudemacusers]

D&g light blue brah

 

[giga]

It's in the same category as acqua di gio. Go with something else if you don't want to smell like most other dudes.

 

[FStop7]

Someone told me that Blue Jeans by Versace is pretty good, but I haven't tried it.

 

[freenudemacusers]

prada infusion d'iris is a dope summer scent. might pick up tomorrow. doubt anyone near here sells it tho.

Outlier WTF packs in stock, get 'em while they're hot! They still have bottoms in most sizes left as of right now.

*edit* Tops are gone, that was quick. Bottoms are going fast too.

Got a bottom. That was crazy. Did they not even announce it on social media? WTF

It was impossible to order them through phone.

I couldn't update the amount of TOP packs correctly. Tried to add "3", which made the amount 31. I tried to update it, but I get the error message "maximum 3". I was trying to buy 3 packs. Darn 3D Touch couldn't help put the cursor behind "1".

 

[fep]

It was hidden in their weekly stock report on reddit. You had to click and read it to see.

I recently bought a Merino/Co Pivot off Ebay that was from a WTF pack. Had a barely noticeable fabric run on the back of the right shoulder so I'm hopeful for something decent!

Good looking out. First time trying this so hoping for the best haha.

Can't afford Common Projects, any recommendations on affordable minimal black sneakers?

Chucks are minimal as fuck. Get the black/black one.

Define affordable? Greats, Vince (peep sales), doucals (also peep sales)

 

[0OoO0]

Yeah, actually was thinking of chucks or stan smiths in all black leather

Define affordable? Greats, Vince (peep sales), doucals (also peep sales)

less than $100

 

[0OoO0]

So I just found the all black leather chucks at 50% off. Problem is my size has sold out. But they do have the next size down. Is it still worth getting? There is a small chance they might still fit, or I can use shoe trees to stretch them out. Should I go ahead and purchase them?

 

[entremet]

Skinny jeans can look good depending on your body type.

I have squatter's thighs and I would look absolutely ridiculous if I wore them.

I prefer slim fits for jeans. Regular fits remind me of dad jeans these days.

Nah get your normal size. What size are you anyway

 

[overcast]

You guys got some beanie inspo? Trying to grab one or two for the fall/winter. Especially lazy mornings.

apply it where you want to be smelled

 

[SeanR1221]

I joined team skinny jean last year and I'll never look back. I really like the ultra stretch ones from uniqlo. I have a larger butt and thighs from squats but these stretch just fine and it's way better than baggy jeans. Just got a new pair the other day and wore them last night.

 

[Oxn]

^^ looking slick.

See even semi buff guys can rock fitted jeans.

Thanks man. I've really tried to step my style up in the past year and a huge part is lurking this thread.

 

[Oveja Negra]

You look great, Sean, but I'd say those are Slim fit, not Skinny fit.

Skinny are really tight, almost like a second ehh... skin

PS: That shirt kicks ass, I'm loving the color and pattern

Thank you sir.

The tag says skinny, but I'd assume not all skinny jeans are created equally!

And yeah I love that shirt. Only 9.90 on the clearance rack!

 

[freenudemacusers]

skinny is just how they taper around the leg usually, if you go up sizes to fit ur squat booty they're not going to be balls tight no mo.

 

[giga]

w2c skinny jeans but for your balls

Yeah, I wear slim fit jeans, they can look great with the right outfit.

It's skinny fit that I was talking about, the ones that literally look like someone painted your legs.

Hot on a girl, plain ridiculous on a dude.

IMO, obvs.

I've been thinking about buying a coat for formal occasions. My tastes have always been on the conservative and formal side, but was never inclined to spend too much on formal wear.

Currently, I've been looking up resource guides on coats, and I want to focus on either a peacoat, trench coat, or overcoat. It's my understanding that peacoats are suitable for most occasions, trench coats are ideally worn during rainy weather, and and overcoats should only be worn with suits. Clarification would be appreciated.

Aside from budget, my main concern is that I should look well dressed and proper, rather than out of place or "too formal". I'm planning for a trip to Europe soon as well, so I'd prefer to look well.

Go with the overcoat. I wear mine with jeans. Just make sure you don't go with black. I find a little bit of colour always makes it easier to get away with.

Any other sites out there like JackThreads? I'm not as impressed with JT as much as I used to be a few years ago, but still visit there once in a while. Looking for something to browse along side of it, or to replace it.

If you don't want to look too formal, then a peacoat is your safest bet. Personally, I love them.

I need some urgent fashion advice. I'd rather not post a pic of myself, but I'm 6'1, 31y, and am really skinny.

But I've lost a ton of weight from playing Pokemon GO lol. I need some new jeans and a pair or two of comfortable but stylish shoes/boots to match (I'll probably put gel in-soles into them for all the walking). I'm aiming for smart casual style. I wanna be able to walk around the suburbs not looking like a fool, but smart enough for the city and can be dressed up with a nice shirt and jumper or whatever.

(I have lots of white shoes/Dunlops etc and other preppy clothes from my younger days so I want something befitting maturity but I don't know that I can carry off the super sexy muscled Italian looks of shiny tan loafers with crisp folded up jeans.)

I have a terrible habit of hating clothes I buy almost immediately or within a week.

Browsing local stores online, these jumped out at me (all their color variants look good, brown, dark brown or black). What do you think, and what color/style jeans would go well?

So these just came in today.

What a waste for me. Pants are too tight and I have no idea if they are suppose to be some sort of capris but they are stupid short. Gonna thrown them up on ebay.
