Haha, how you figure? I would be really surprised if this were the case... The brands I wear is a good reflection of my disposable income. If I had the means, id buy alot of japanese reproductions instead of 30$ carhartt pants (which are an amazing deal at that prize imo).

You spend the money well though, and always look good and comfy.

Only when there's a Han Solo vest/shirt combo.

Not to drag this out but I don't think Bobo looks sloppy and he's anything but disheveled. Grunge is disheleved, which is really, IMO, far from what he's going for. I think its more of a workwear aesthetic. They're loose, comfortable ensembles but always well put together. Its all about an interest in authenticity, I think.

FTB- Real strong look
GS- I really like the D2s. I saw some up close shots on sufu of them and really liked the look of the denim. I wish the cut was a bit slimmer but they're definitely nice jeans.

The denim is great, really stiff. The cut is an odd in-between of the California (skinny) and the Detroit (loose). The waist is exactly as tagged and knees down it's slim like the Cali, but the top block (hip - thigh) is roomy, which I'm not used to so it's making me feel like I'm swimming in them in the thigh area. This would actually be a great cut for a thicker guy who has a butt and meaty thighs that wants a slim fitting jean. As it is, I have no ass (unless you count my bud Whodini) and skinny thighs so it's a bit roomier than I normally wear

I'm a fan of fadetoblack's fits- its a refreshing change from all the slim fits we see here on SF and on most fashion forums in general. With regards, to superbobo's fits, somehow I think he's taking the workwear aesthetic a little too far. Clearly, as shown by my fondness for FTB's outfits, I enjoy loose-fitting clothing. However, I somehow feel like Superbobo is taking the authenticity of workwear a little too far.

Another question I wanted to throw out: what elevates a jeans/tee fit to become comment worthy? Reason being I noticed that many commented on sidneylo's recent fit. While it is a great fit, it seems like good jeans / tee fits are a dime a dozen. Is it because jeans & tees naturally look great on his slender frame or perhaps its because it was a well-taken photo??

gs: regardless I think they look great on you. they remind me a bit of my black wings + horns except for the silver hardware and a more prominent taper under the knee.


fade: one of your best. ******* great.

my guess is because it's the first look at the SEXFH05 and that new line of indigo shirts.

Im really curious of why you feel this way, since I really dont go for total authenticity in any way (but ofcourse wouldnt buy, say, Diesel work wear influenced pieces), and am no stranger to throwing in a fleece vest or a pair of sneakers. Im more into a sort of relaxed "street" mix of work wear/outdoors/preppy/whatever influences... Im wearing Timberland boat shoes

Im more influenced by the japanese take on "work" or "outdoors" as seen in for instance mens non-no, than actual old workwear.... Also a big fan of old man wear in general, just so relaxed and weird.

see Bill on sufu for someone who goes for total work wear authenticity.

FTB: Whether it's true or not, I sorta get the "idle rich" impression from your fits as well. Would I think the same if I saw you on the street and didn't know what the labels were? I couldn't say. However, I do really like all the stuff you post, and you do it all without even a whiff of arrogance or pretense.

Yeah yeah yeah, I just didn't expect to make multi comments "smart-ass". I'll learn, I'll learn. At least I didn't repost the pic's!.

I'm sure I'm not helping the discussion here, but SuperBobo was all I could think about while watching the evil djinn Demerest in "Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies".
