Sometimes this thread turns very bad very fast. Shoes not pictured but black slip-ons. I'm trying to post a fit to get it closer to normal. Left is how I feel when I read the thread like it is currently.

Is that a snakeskin belt? Totally awesome

Unless it's a forum owner, moderator or the like telling me how this thread 'works', i'll be participating in the most logical manner possible. That is, read, partake in discussion, post your fits, try to learn something from those you admire. 

I didn't realise that picture was from your first post here KOY - and honestly, personally attacking you is not my intention. I apologise. However how long have I been in this thread? A month? Should I have learned to be a good, obedient WAYWT thread participant by now?

The fact that you claim there has been no journey is wrong IMO. I've asked a whole series of questions and am actively trying to implement some of the things I agree with. I'm not going to be told what to do, nor should you.

Nothing as interesting as that tworksheets, just a braided and marled belt.

What? Those people pretty much represent what SWD is all about.

Barims is swaggy as ****, breaks all the rules and looks like a boss - individual panache, not even slightly #menswear
GDL is basically at the forefront of being "SF-approved" (in a good way) - junya, schneider, TOJ, high tops, boots, the whole shebang
MOK is our friendly heritage icon
NYR doesn't really get much love, he just wears jeans
Shore is what SWD was 5 years ago, and he's still going strong. He keeps the dream alive.


I don't know what to make of this

could be
fosters is Australian for beer , who knows what other kinds of messed up translations they have going on


Look out, bad 90s comedians are stealing your jokes

I think you missed the point of his analogy, as it would still fit in well with your expansion of it

style can have it's own Etudes and WTC, just as it can have it's own Gymnopédie as it can have it's own [ ]

but no matter how you look at it, starting with the basic scales is not a bad place to start, even if the direction you pick is more elaborate and beautiful scales

Scales can be beautiful. Beautiful enough to be concert-worthy (Etudes, WTC). ElisiX fits are practising his scales. Hence EliseX fits can be beautiful. Beautiful enough to be concert-worthy. If he is not ready for a concert with his scales, that's between him and posters who reply to him.
Playing scales is repetititive. If ElisiX is playing scales, he will be repetitive. You can't indulge him playing scales and complain he is posting the same thing over and over again.
That's all I was trying to say. Not trying to join the jerk-circle.

ElisiX seems to be having difficulty finding a shirt that fits him and looks good. I really don't get why this is worthy of a public and long-winded dressing down. Tirailleur suggest MTM, which I think is the best and only good suggestion, so far.
