notwithit, agree a looser fit can look fine and too that it's not necessary to slim this shirt down as it still looks good on you, only thought it to be a good idea because the chest and sleeves both are quit tight and would creat a homogenous look, but this might indeed be a MC approach, which once again you might not be after.

Synthese I am sure you can find a nice red shirt with better detailing/texture than that.

That variation of the flannel in the black/red checkers is what hipsters wore back in 09

Everywhere you turned was a guy with some similar variation probably picked up from Urban

notwithit has like an 11" drop so unless he's wearing spandex he's not gonna find something fitted enough.
I also wonder how many thumbs up he'd get if he posted a pic in his underwear a la eason... there's always been a strange 'no ****' undercurrent to people talking about hist posts. but i digress..
also notwithit: i've never really liked your hair. you always have this pretty boy clark kent type of thing going on, but to me it never really works. you should buzz your hair.


hair is dope as hell. no change is needed

I read the caption then scrolled down slowly, expecting a very different "Prince Albert" in your hand...

FFS, so much backlash, perhaps my comment was too strong, but I feel that the recent abundance of lumberjack shirts and trucker jackets makes this look very middle of the road hipster, even though in much nicer fabrics.


When you say "hipster", I suspect you have a very vague idea of what that actually means. Looking at what he's wearing, there's nothing particularly contrived about what he's wearing that should make you use the word "hipster". This is a fairly basic fit. And if you think this is a hipster look, what do you think he should be wearing?

if you need to be reminded why flannel is cool there's no hope for you

I just think it would look better with a geller U neck tee.
