    The fine line between dressing like an old man and a sharp GQ/Esquire guy.

    Reevolving, don't you ever dare PM me again, unless you want to purchase something from me. Got it grandpa? Get a new wardrobe. You look like your pants are pulled up to your ****. LOL to the miz-ax. This is as good as that "critique my shirt" thread in which the OP almost started a riot...

    Why do my wool pants go shiny on the knees?

    ....Because you spend too much time on them....I won't suggest a reason why *cough, cough* "queer" *cough*

    rtw vs bespoke @ the same price

    The quality and fit would be the deciding factor for me. The labels "RTW" and "bespoke" wouldn't mean a damn thing if the suit was poor quality.

    The fine line between dressing like an old man and a sharp GQ/Esquire guy.

    Firstly, a lot of the ads and suggestions in GQ are only made for GQ photoshoots. The context in which some of the outfits in GQ are appropriate doesn't exist in most of our lives. Aside from that, your outfit does sound rather old. If you posted pictures on this site, you MAY get a "bravo"...

    Is Styleforum turning off old members?

    ...... a ton of crap and circle-jerking... Yes....YES! That's the site description that I've been looking for.

    in general... why do people look better as they grow up?

    i'm talking about high school/ college to after. is it because we're finally earning and can chose to spend more money on haircuts? is it awareness? stopping blindly following fashion trends or what everyone around you is wearing? i don't look much different i believe. Helloooo? Don't you...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    A little boy (probably 11 years old) walks into the store. He has a cardboard box with him Him: (to me) Hello. You wanna buy some candy? Me: No. Thanks though. Him: (walking over to a customer) You wanna buy some candy? Customer: No thank you. Him: (to customer) What would happen if somebody...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    A customer enters the store and goes directly into material: Him: Here's the situation. I just got a promotion at work Me: Congratulations Him: Yeah. Thanks. I just got promoted to regional manager and I need to pass a drug test. I don't usually do that type of s**t, but I went out with some...

    Merino V Neck Sweaters... Suggestions?

    I'm surprised so many people are recommending such low end sweaters that will last only 3-6 months. We don't suggest that route for suits, why suggest it for sweaters? Buying a 20-30 dollar sweater every 3-6 months seems to me a bit less wise than spending $150-200 on something that will last 5+...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    King, I think the man wanted to go to jail because he figured he's old and would die soon enough anyway and he wanted to spend his remaining days (or weeks or months) in a relatively secure place. I doubt they would have put him in a federal penitentiary. That's just my opinion, of course. In...

    Merino V Neck Sweaters... Suggestions?

    I usually just go with the GAP variety. They are cheap, thin (which is great if you decide to wear them under a jacket) and typically last about 2 years at which point, they fall apart. I'll be heading to the GAP soon. My 2 years are up. I second this suggestion. Pick up your sweaters at a...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    You douche, he INSISTED that you call the police, yet you didn't. He might just have wanted a simplier life, liek Bernard Madoff, in a orange jumpsuit, 3x3 cell, and 3 square meals a day and a place to sleep. Yet you kicked him out of hte store (probably with no multivitamins)... back to his...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    The supplement store that I worked in closed at 7pm each night. At the time that this story took place, it was about 6:30pm, and I was preparing the store for closing. An older man (50+) came into the store and walked to the nearest products. Since I was eager to finish paper-work and go home, I...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    A young woman (between 17 and 21) walked into the store. I was training a co-worker at the time and didn't see her walk in. The other employees on duty must have been assisting customers at the time because she approached me and my trainee. I had my back to the door, so I didn't notice her...

    What are your Top 3 Shoes you wear with Jeans & a Button-Up

    In unranked order: Steve Madden sporty-casual shoes- I'm not sure what they're actually called, but they're in between dress and gym shoes. I've got a variety of different colors, from black and grey to brown and tan. Monkstaps- These are nice for going out on dates that don't call for a suit...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    The least you could have done was hooked up the customer knowing the company was trying to screw em, especially if it contributed to you wanting to quit. Believe me, during my last days, I gave out some of the best deals I'd ever seen in the store, even though I technically didn't have the...

    Who were some of your worst, rudest, and/or most ignorant customers?

    The company that I worked for had an interesting way of screwing its customers. The company sold a "discount" card that was only good for a specific portion of the month, and the company ended sales or raised prices a few days before the card went into effect. Most of the time, the customer...

    Are Allen Edmonds Seconds Really Seconds?

    I bought a pair of AE seconds recently that were, in a word, "ugly." They had clearly been used and abused in the store that they were shipped from. I was baffled by the fact that the store manager would even ATTEMPT to ship them to a customer. Needless to say, my demand for a refund was...
