I would never wear.....

MiniW · Nov 18, 2009

by the sounds of some of your lists I'm curious to see what you do wear consistently.

but anyways here are my nevers:
Barker Blacks, Augusta boots, Air Jordans, watches that show the gears on the front, 100% polyester anything (unless it is a pair of adidas/gym track pants).... it's late, can't really think of much else right now... will add to this small list later on I'm sure.

I have worn a lot of the things mentioned in this thread.

I would never wear....
- a luxury watch [unless I receive it as a gift; so almost never]
- a braided belt
- a beaded bracelet/jewelry aside from my wedding ring
- pleated trousers
- common projects/luxury sneakers

i am sure there are others, but really my tastes have changed so dramatically in the past 5 years i hate to put very many limits on my wardrobe. I'd never have thought i'd wear boatshoes, but i saw them done well, same with 100+ dollar denim, and skinny suits, etc etc.

Patagonia-style fleece sweaters
Sunglasses with bright colored lenses
Sheer / see-through clothes
Ring boots
Tassle loafers

I just can't pull it off. 4. Jorts (Full disclosure: I had a pair in grade 7. They seemed stylish and practical at the time.) 5. Teva style sandals - they are useless, ugly, and stink like death. (Full disclosure: I had a pair, and wore them with my Jorts). 6. Vest worn casually - about 1/1000 people can pull it off and look good. It's not me, and chances are, it's not you. 7. Sheer anything - it's a no win situation. If you are not in perfect shape, you just look stupid. If you are, you're just a douche 8. Wifebeaters - see 7. 9. A Patek Phillipe (obviously, I would totally. But I just want someone to take this as a challenge and send me one.) 10. A beard - Again, I've tried. But instead of looking like a cool Chinese warrior, I looked sorta like the rat faced foil in Kung Fu movies who spends the entire time getting his ass kicked. Not a good look. For anyone who put down "bootcuts", I call bullshit unless you are over 40, 35 if you are a young fogey.
Hold on there Cowboy, wife beaters are a staple of my Russian gangster meets hillbilly-rocker steez. On topic, I don't believe I'll ever wear: pastel polos yellow a hoodie under a tee shirt fake diamonds drop crotch pants a straw boater

Waa? I don't think I've seen this done, but I imagine it looking absolutely atrocious.

I never thought I'd wear CP, either, until I realized that it's apparently ******* impossible for a cheap sneaker company to come out with something that isn't overdesigned. CP is so damn simple and clean. I wouldn't mind wearing a diffusion or copycat brand that used cheaper materials; hell, I wouldn't mind creating such a company, I'd probably make millions.

That said, I found my pair on deep discount and have no complaints about taking the plunge. I just wish people didn't have to pay a premium on something that doesn't look like ******* speedcats.

I like my poorman CPs, adidas Rod Lavers Tournament Edition. Still has one small bit of ugly green on the back but otherwise I like them a bunch. Definitely wish that normal, plain sneakers weren't rare though.

I would never wear a shawl neck sweater. Tried one on and it felt like I was being swallowed by a giant ******.

I don't know about night time, I am busy during the evening though. Depends if I'm too drunk to drive there or if my friend plans something that day for his bday.

Yeah, those tend to be considered the closest runners-up around here but still...
