This way the context will be there and people won't be like "wtf , why is that dude wearing a suit".

There are some days where I tell my girl that I want to rock a suit today, she dresses accordingly and we go out for some food or whatever.

To some extent. Context is highly important. I'm 18, in high school, and live in suburbia; wearing a suit will always trigger "wtf" reactions in any casual environment. I've had people ask me if I have a job interview (or some ****) just because I wore a white ocbd.

Someone in their mid-20s (particularly in a metropolitan area) can very easily wear a suit casually. I probably can't.

Wasn't that noticable, so he must've dressed appropriately i guess. or was I the only one who didn't really notice? On a good day he looked better than a majority of SW&D posters (yeah, i know some of you think that this doesn't mean much).


I know a lot of people had a lot of issues with him for some reason. I guess because of the things he said? I didn't pay any attention to that. He did, however, have a lot of cool pieces.

I'm not so sure about "very easily"... I live in a major metro area and am in my mid-20s and I'd still get wtf looks when wearing a suit casually, unless like kelvin said, I was with a girl that was dressed up or maybe with friends that were dressed up similarly.

I don't think I was involved in SF enough at the time to know much about him, but I do remember that he'd always look awkward in his fits. Something about that big noggin' and neck of his didn't sit right with me.

You basically got it. You need to wait till you're in a big city.

Same. I lurked mostly back during his heyday and only caught whiffs of what went on with him. Though I was browsing SZ the other day and I saw an incredibly poor recent fit of his consisting of faded jeans and an unbuttoned shirt over a loose white T. Oddly enough, he received praise from one or two members there despite being unlike that forum's collective style.

It would be sick if you commissioned a teal/purple suede one from ToJ. Or you could get one from unlucky but it'd be stiff
