    okay y'all, this isn't that good of a thread. @dieworkwear is relentlessly destroying @chronfucker, which is, admittedly, amazing, but even that's about all that's going on, and even that gets old. this chron dude is just a run of the mill troll, giving him too much space to enjoy this. this is...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Thanks @Timbaland and @Benesyed !! So, just out of curiosity, what separates a mid from upper tier knit in your opinion (besides price obviously)? I've read a fair bit of the Epicurean knits forum which was really interesting, but I failed to grasp what separated the good from the great. My idea...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Anyone have any experience with the brand Nuur for knits? Seems like its a farfetch specific brand? They seem to have some reasonably priced stuff but would love to know if anyone else has had experience. Thinking of pieces like this...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Totally, I think this is a great piece. Again, this is not to defend the margiela piece, because in the end I don't even know if I'm gonna keep it due to scratch factor, but on principle it does feel unique from other aspects. Also, I feel like mentioning this since it seems like you're using...

    In this thread we ***** about customer service

    @IChen your comments are problematic. First off, you're engaging in whataboutism where you're trying to deflect one thing problematic that you're doing with something potentially problematic that others are doing. That doesn't change the underlying thing you're doing. Secondly, while it's not...

    Dude, pro-tip, anytime you're about to say something that follows "I'm not a racist but", just don't say it. First of all, your information is anecdotal and it's not necessarily true about Indian Americans (full disclosure, I am Indian American). Second, even if it were true that certain groups...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Yeah, we'll see if I keep. Still mulling. I'm curious, what're some high end cardigan knits in this style - slouchy and chunky - that you would turn to?

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Sorry for the crummy picture! Yeah, in real life, it does feel fairly unique, at least compared to the other cardigans I own, mainly because the chunkiness and oversizedness is very substantial, in a way that I haven't gotten from a lot of other cardigans outside of of my jan jan one (which is...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Appreciate the responses! Yeah, I think I'll keep it, in the end I'm just growing attached to it lol. And yes @bry2000 I took your advice and went with my normal medium size, definitely the right choice!

    Random Fashion Thoughts (Part 3: Style farmer strikes back) - our general discussion thread

    Okay, so I don't know where this fits so please let me know if I should move this comment/question. Essentially, I'm curious about people's thoughts about high fashion vs fast fashion differences in quality vs cost. This all started from a comment from @Purplelabel and @yunBW. In the whether I...

    Barbour Bedale waxed jacket w/lining & hood c38

    Thanks for the thoughts y'all! I'm only in the states temporarily visiting home for the holidays, then go back to my overseas in India where I won't have any options even to check out thrift stores and was really looking for a nice chunky cardigan like this MM one, so I think I'm gonna keep it!

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    @bry2000 @dieworkwear ended up biting the bullet and buying the margiela cardi. I think it's got the drape/slouchiness and color I was looking for, but it's itchier than I was expecting :/ What do y'all think, worth keeping at $500?
  13. yoshimagikmagik

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Yeah, thanks so much for the rec!!! Do you have this piece? Can this be worn as inner layer indoors or is too warm and/or scratchy itchy? I love the chunkiness, but that and the fact that its all wool may make it difficult except in cold offices perhaps?

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Damn, I didn't know there was such a war on buttons. So, I get it, for the most part, the drape is better open than buttoned up for most people, especially if you've got any ponch at all. But I don't know, I just like havinnnng the buttons, as an aesthetic piece. I like the idea that maybeee I...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Yes, that has the added value of constricting my mobility for maximum vanity affect. I could do the same thing with my pants so as to ensure no button fly opening and start exclusively wearing diapers.

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Thanks for the suggestion, I like this one too! I'm looking at more Margiela ones now too.

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Thanks for the recommendation! Yeah, I've thought about that TS(S) cardigan, but I've never been able to get quite get around the fact that it's shorter in length than ideally I'd like it to be and it doesn't have buttons. Why no buttons man? At 4 bills, we should buttons no? I assume it's a...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    https://www.ssense.com/en-us/men/product/stella-mccartney/brown-large-v-neck-cardigan/2215517 Worth it? I want a long slouchy somewhat chunky cardigan that's not so unwieldy I can still wear to work. This seems like it's a good option. Thoughts? Perhaps other recommendations if not this?
