What is your error rate? - Page 3

75%. I just started reading SF about a month ago so I still really, really suck at this whole dressing nice thing. However, I bought some 501s the other day and I think they fit right and some chino's today. Along with that some Clarks DBs that I've really, really grown to like. So I think I'm on the right track! If I can get that error rate down to a pedestrian 50% or so, I'll feel pretty good.

probably around 50-60%. Probrably due to the fact that 90% of my clothing is purchaced online.

lol Most bad dressers say the same thing. Like the guy at my office who brags how he pays only $15 for jeans at Costco. He likes them because they are "roomy." To me, "classic" means stuck in 1993. I doubt that is what you meant, but you should know that classic is a loaded term around here.

501s are for old and/or fat people.

You do realize that the 501s have gone through numerous iterations, right?

Yes, I do. There are also countless variations of Kleenex or "tissue."

Probably 5 - 10% as of the past 12 months, there's only a few items I don't wear which I plan on giving away. Most are due to blind impulse purchasing (oh look, they're on sale!) but that's rather rare because I tend to think about each item a good deal before I purchase, I know a good deal about my size, and my taste has never changed enough to make me despise my purchases (except some of those bought age pre-19).
Getting minimalist now, so I hope to regret even less in future.

At the point now of getting rid of the first post-SF generation of stuff. Probably should get organized to sell but mostly just heading for Goodwill.
