Otter Weight Loss Plan Details.
Step 1. Buy lots of authentic fake leather jackets as small as possible
Step 2. Stop wearing ugly ****** fit polo shirts
Step 3. Throw around some weights
Step 4. Instead of eating pizza/burgers/cake do lots of blow
Step 5 Post highly saturated fit pics
Step 6. Profit?


I don't just wear polos. Today I wore a John Smedley Sea island cotton "Marshall" pullover, Jockey white t-shirt, Levis 501s, Church's "Pembury" loafers in brown, argyle socks by Pantherella...

I don't get (4) means...or what "saturated" means in (5)...

I drank a glass of milk for breakfast....swept the house and mopped it to get some exercise....walked 15 minutes from the parking lot to the building....ate Fried fillet of mutton snapper with a huge side of Nasi Goreng for lunch....1 cup espresso....1 cup Nescafé....1 stein of Tropicana after lunch...another stein of Tropicana now....

For Step 6., I made 6.1% profit today when the market moved up by 2.1%....so definitely good overall....yesterday was good also...Monday was a disaster.


It's like my homie Derrida said, Every discourse, even a poetic or oracular sentence, carries with it a system of rules for producing analogous things and thus an outline of methodology.


This is imbecile...what the **** does that even mean??!?!

it's "blowing away" people because it's supposed to be an "awesome fit" based solely on brands and hype factor of the peices. But any half-intelligent person knows that that it's not labels or trendy items that make a fit look good, but people on SF like to forget that.


no offense, but you're marsupialed

But any half-intelligent person knows that that it's not labels or trendy items that make a fit look good, but people on SF like to forget that. Proper fit and a sense of personal style is what makes a fit good.
TOJ, hyped up
Prada creepers, hyped up
+J, hyped up
I agree with you bubba, I also don't think he is wearing it tremendously well either. for whatever reason, despite the cool pieces, it doesn't have me going "cool fit man". I sense too much 'forced' swagger.
dont get me wrong, I think the fit looks OK, but it's not "mind blowing" by any means


You're being too narrow-minded here. The fit is great because he's taken some interesting pieces and combined them in a cohesive manner. I don't like Creepers at all. This is the first time I've seen them incorporated into an outfit that didn't just not look silly, but also complimented the rest of the ensemble. The blue in the Creepers is a bold, yet not gaudy accent in an otherwise black and white outfit.

ToJ is hyped around here, but from an objective viewpoint, why shouldn't it be? Drew makes great wares with exceptional details and materials at a fraction of what you would pay elsewhere. Yet, there are a lot of examples here of ToJ jackets looking off, be it for fit reasons or an incongruity with the person wearing it. Bacon's varsity both fits well and adds to the clean look of the outfit as a whole.

I also don't agree with the "forced swagger" assessment. Second to poor fits, the main reason you see quite a few iffy user-submitted ToJ offerings is because the jacket in question clashes with other details of the person's appearance (i.e. IT guy haircut). That's not the case here. Bacon is using a few pieces that are currently "in" but one of the reasons it works is because those pieces compliment his appearance, namely the haircut.

that reminds me, i really can't get down with his topknot either. looks off for some reason.


and like I said, I have no problem with the hype around TOJ. I think it's deserved. Furthermore, I wouldn't mind owning a pair of those Prada creepers either. My beef is that a fit isn't "mind-*******-blowing" just because it has these hyped pieces. I feel that the fit as a whole was eh. The pants look sorta sloppy and I feel that the shoes are too clunky for that hem size.

bubba is like a noob that walks into a store that sells diamonds and asks "why are all these shiny rocks so expensive? they look like the rocks in my yard."

he didn't agree with you. your similar viewpoints stem from two different forms of idiocy.

How can aether be jelly if hes human?

Btw thanks for the support guys. I knew the hype issue would be raised but I believe hype can only be a negative thing if followed thoughtlessly. If you can use it well then why not? I've got a lot more fits planned for the varsity. Atleast it wasnt another denim fit rite?
