So what are some of the styles you've seen on SF, but not in the "wild" (real life)?

Me, I have never seen the 2 inch pant cuff on high-water pants in person.

I agree. Haven't seen so many high water pants since we were calling the wearers nerds and then teasing them until they cried.

I haven't seen a fedora on a person in probably 30 years. Even then, the wearer was my uncle and he was in his 60's.

Knit ties are very rare in the wild, as are grey flannel suits. Patch pockets are relatively uncommon. Three-roll-two jackets are as infrequent as they are frequent on the forum. Unbuttoned button-down dollars never appear in Manhattan.

But according to FNB, I am not actually aware of any of that because I don't understand class in America and what sailboat cufflinks signify about it.
