OK...I say the competition should include:

1) Interview outfit. Who is doing the interviewing?
2) Power/ Show-off Business outfit Spoo
3) Double Breasted (Business) Matt
4) Double Breasted (Evening/ Freestyle) what's Evening Freestyle?
5) Three-piece (Business) Spoo. Matt doesn't own 3-piece
6) Three-piece (Evening/ Freestyle) what's this again?
7) Formalwear Matt
8) Sportcoat (Freestyle) Freestyle? Is this like a Fila tracksuit?
9) Golf Outfit Tie

OK everyone, let's keep the language clean and the attitudes light.


An iBattle could be very educational if done in a friendly spirit. People get upset about perceived cliques on SF. And there are cliques in a way. But cliques are fluid. The respected old 2" cuff-wearer of today was the baggy office pants wearer of yesterday. If you guys only witnessed the old arguments between guys who now seem united...

Matt and Spoo are both good-natured guys who dress well, if in different spirits. If they agreed to highlight the contrasting approaches of their styles, perhaps along the lines McDaniels suggested, I think we'd all benefit. I know I would.


i want to be awesome like you one day mtm

 When I say "evening/ freestyle" I am saying you can dress without worry about whether it is office/ business appropriate...like what one would wear to suit up for an evening out. As applied to the sport coat, also saying dress it/ accessorize it without fear of business rules applying. I left out the swimsuit portion of the evening because I figured any competitors would probably be over 35....and I do not wish to be cruel...

Spoo it's really going to rub salt into the wound if you're close to my age. As if this site didn't make me feel behind already...

Not bad at all, but could be improved easily so worth making a couple of superficial no-cost suggestions:

1) Different tie. The green is too acidic for the rest of the look. If you wanted a statement tie, a darker green would paradoxically actually have stood out more, while not overwhelming the look.
2) Top button could stand to be unbuttoned. This is purely personal preference admittedly, but I think for a fun evening out sort of look, as you're going for, you could stand to unbutton it, especially as it buttons a little high anyway.
3) Again a bit of personal preference, but next time you need to buy new shirts, try looking for ones with a higher collar, and possibly a fractionally narrower spread.
Thanks for the feedback.
okay gyasih my monitor is !! but those carmina rock - i love their new site - best shoe site on the net, cheers
I wasn't being snarky, I just am not good a describing color.

What the **** is going on here lately???

Thanks for the comments today guys. This SC does not translate well in pictures, it looks much better in person.

I am thankful I have other hobbies. :facepalm:

Melaine Klein, in her breast-obssessed world (a state not entirely dissimilar to SF, although we focus on breast wallets too) would suggest that following the loss of the old SF, we're now experiencing transference rage, which we're directing towards each other.

The breast is gone, the milk has stopped flowing, the anger pours forth instead...

Until the teat returns in the form of the new SF working well, we will need a substitute breast, like a child's pacifier. Feel free to nominate posters to fill this role. The first person to suggest mktitsworth gets a clip round the ear for being too obvious.
