Sneakers With Tailoring: Yes, No, Maybe?

so...what's your point ?
my post history is very public, including all the times you've been exposed and then quietly stopped responding.

you don't think people should be allowed to disagree with you ?
you are free to block or ignore anyone, but you don't get to censor anyone.

Did I ever say that people shouldn't disagree with me? In the very beginning, I engaged with you politely and in earnest, and then over time, you got more acrimonious.

I'm saying that, if your entire post history is about me for many months -- for some people, now stretching closer to a year -- maybe break it up. Drop a note somewhere about something else every once in a while so you don't seem insane.

I "quietly stopped responding" because I just moved on, while you kept going on and on and on and on. This is proof that such behavior goes on despite me not responding for months.

Assuming this is an earnest comment, why not then learn to dress beautifully but in a way that accords with your lifestyle and environment? Why insist on oxfords?

What makes you think I need to learn how to dress myself beautifully for my lifestyle? You really do think you've been sent here to be our savior, don't you?

I have oxfords for when the time is right, derbies and loafers and boots for when it's not. And I don't need to read a website to know the difference. I've been doing this a long time.

Is that being held up as a “sense of color“ yadda yadda that surpasses the 99%? That tweedjackit and those pants? Looks tryhard-n-fail.

If you know, you know.

people who don’t share the same aesthetic preference as DWW are new to wearing clothes.

so if you want to look educated, go get yourself a pair of split toe derbies. It’s the only way to look like you are not new to clothes.

Can't tell if some of these guys have a closet full of colorful shoes and socks and are trying to rationalize the amount spent on them or if they legitimate think walking around looking like a sales associate at a department store looks good.

Well, you might get mistaken for someone with a beautiful wife. That's step one, you know, toward your first pair of Cleverley shoes.

The irony of that famous quote is that we are *all* assholes.

Not entirely sure if these are what the thread had in mind, but I think this guy looks cool in his shoes.

But then again, he might look even cooler in loafers or derbs.

Uh huh.

I also know designers get training in color and design but then there’s a big order for purple corduroy and suddenly it looks good with everything.

Oh wow, another DWW troll account?

While this comment really brings back the nostalgia of vBulletin forums in 2010, no, unfortunately, this seems to just be a projection as to how much you care about this whole charade, to think about creating new accounts to "support a side", or something like that.

I’m not only commenting for me.

LOL i hope all those you represent and stand up for appreciate your goodwill

There are a number of us fully enjoying this train wreck in private conversations as well. This is more entertaining than anything on tv this weekend.

Are you throwing me one down the middle here? There's a number of you whispering to each other in the back of the classroom?

But on a serious note, UFC 263 yesterday was a great card. Might not be everyone's cup of tea but I'd also point out that limiting yourself to the TV for entertainment is so last century.

The sarcastic call-backs did make me chuckle the first few times I read it. By the 50th ... Reminds me of my best friend in grade 8 who loved to repeat jokes because there's no reason it wouldn't be funny the nth time if it was funny the first time.

I unironically think this is cool but maybe the B&W does some work here

Same. It's probably also true in general, that the context in the image colors the perception of the attire. For example, I'm sure there are a number of pics here where the guy looks cool (but not sexy, because max 1% of what is posted here appeals to women) in the image but might look unremarkable sitting at a cubicle or something.

#wrong

that outfit would not look as good with split toe derbies or loafers. That is your opinion, but it is wrong.

Now I’m not saying loafers or derbies would be bad, but I don’t think they would be better. Not at all. His shoe choice is better than split toe derbies.

My opinion is the only way that outfit would look good is burning.

Actually the thread is about sneakers..
"SNEAKERS WITH TAILORING: YES, NO, MAYBE?"

Am I blind here? This looks like an open lacing system to me?

 

[acapaca]

Yes, they look to me like a sort of sneaker. But it's not clear. What do you think? Bowling shoes, maybe?
