Hey guys I really appreciate all the advice. Like I said I'm not your typical adolescent, I'm a bio-medical major and have learned if someone gives you advice, don't get mad, just try and absorb what their saying. So don't think your advice goes in one ear and out the other....I'm taking it all in.


The last thing I'm worried about though, is like I said I'm verrry athletic...I weigh 185 now...but in another year I will probably be 200...around the same bodyfat due to my bodybuilding hobby. I'm worried about investing in buying nice tops and getting them tailored, just to find them ill fitting next year.

Buy cheap tops and get them tailored if you plan on growing. Good fit pwns all.

I am in a similar situation - I have always been skinny but I am bulking up. Like I said in the other thread, your tailor is your best friend.

Didn't see this answered and just found this in my own search...

Four bones, shipped, is probably the cheapest you'll find ever.

Any idea what the hell is this expensive brand? At first I thought it was some skydiving wear, but now I'm getting the impression it's some clothing where you can put your ipod in and play music through your clothes and then proceed to do windmills? lol.. what the **** Acronym http://www.havenshop.ca/ShowProdByBr...r=1&BrandId=74 http://www.acronym.de/product.php?id=201 I went to their website but everything was explained in esoteric Trademarked terms. Example: "STOTZÂ
00ae.png
Etaproof� High-Density Cotton" "Includes: FORCELOCKæ [ Removable ] JACKETSLINGæ [ Removable ] Systems: ACRONYMÂ
00ae.png
SOUNDæ [ PAT. ]" Oh and read their terminology list, it's even funnier: FORCELOCKæ ACRONYMÂ
00ae.png
SOUND earphone sub-system. Patents pending. GRAVITY POCKETæ ACRONYMÂ
00ae.png
pocket sub-system for quick draw access. Travis Bickle wants to know. ESCAPE ZIPæ ACRONYMÂ
00ae.png
sub-system for high-speed jacket removal (Quick draw for what? High speed removal for what? sex?) seriously, wtf are these guys on.

I find that, dressing left and wearing boxers as I tend to do, I tend to stretch out the inner part of my left pant leg in a rather unsightly manner. This usually happens with flimsier jeans. Is it just me, or has anyone else ever tally-whacked an unsightly bulge into their leg?

I stopped wearing skinny jeans when I wore holes in my left ankles.
