    Oiling down suede (is it possible? how?benefits?)

    I did this to a pair of suede Clarks DBs and I wouldn't recommend it. Instead of coming out "rugged" they came out...ugly. That is really the best way to describe it. I Like to think of myself as pretty okay with DIY projects but this one was a failure on my part. I used a whole tin of the...

    RRL or Self Edge Denim?

    They are all great jeans, go try em all on and choose the one you like best. All of those are made of Japanese denim. The RRL's can advertise they were made in the USA, but that doesn't mean their construction is "superior" just made somewhere else. This question is too broad.

    Random fashion thoughts

    I found Style Forum after I wandered over from /fa/ on 4chan. Of course I found /fa/ from /fit/ and I found /fit/ from /b/. In short I'm here because of 4Chan.

    Too Old for Hoodie?

    Well the overly graphic hoodies with dragons and **** or logos probably arent the best bet. But anything that fits well like a Wing&Horns hoodie at the top end or an AA at the low end will look fine.

    Random fashion thoughts

     All but three presidents since 1825 have been in fraternities. More than half of the house of representatives were in fraternities or sororities. Your gf watches too much TV. Party school frats don't count, those things are a disgrace.

    LL Bean + Rogues Gallery = LL Bean Signature

    There is no doubting the quality of LLBS is much higher than LEC. I recently bought their lambswool shawl neck and really the quality exellent, but the fit was a touch boxy. Ive also bought numerous pants as well as the field jacket. Another thing to be said is that I dont think it would be...

    Random fashion thoughts

     The example merely has it written out, but in the flavor text it explains that it is a variety and should you order one of their "actually vintage" sweatshirts you will receive a random sweatshirt. Which then reminded me of my own example. I was merely posting on the propensity for people...

    Random fashion thoughts

    Haters gonna hate :cool: This was more of a commentary on seeing somebody on the street representing something they are not a part of. Of course military medals hold more weight than fraternity letters. And who cares if my "slampiece" puts em on in the "fratcastle". I think your all confusing...

    Random fashion thoughts

    incoming rant: I recently saw that Blackbird is selling vintage sweatshirts. I noticed the example sweatshirt displays a prominent and still very active fraternity's letters. Being in a fraternity myself I would go out of my way to introduce myself to anybody else wearing my letters. This...

    Your Best & Worst Purchases of 2011

    Best: -Any RRL denim, I think I bought 3-4 pairs this year and honestly I love each one -I got some Frye boots as a present and they are the most comfortable boots I have, and they looks tough as nails compared to the W+H service boots -LEC slim fit chinos, somehow these fit me great and they...

    Leather boots for harsh winters?

    I survive the Rochester winters just A-Ok with bean boots and thick wool socks...sometimes i double up on the socks though =P Rubber is a necessity, simply because not even sno-seal will protect you from just getting completely soaked through and having your toes freeze off.

    Why do people hate on the preppy look?

    I dress like a douchebag prep when i sail my ************* splintering 10ft bluejay around the long island sound. Captains hat, nantucket red pants, sebago's, usually no shirt. you know what? its awesome. haters gonna hate.

    Do I look dumb?

     You made me go back and visit /x/ for old times sake. Thanks

    Why do people hate on the preppy look?

    its not that people dont like it, its just that the average person does preppy in such a garish way that its impossible to even classify it as "real prep" Prep fashion started out as a way to say "**** you" through conservative clothing at preparatory schools. Go see the book "Take Ivy" to see...

    Bandana tied around the neck. Thoughts?

    you could totally dress like freddy from scooby doo. but in all honesty, unless your in a Ralph Lauren Add, any neckwear like a bandana or cravat will look silly. Not even real cowboys wear bandanas like that anymore.
