You guys are lame as hell.
probably
You have to be good looking, young, and have swagger to pull it off, but there's something very charming about this "old man" look you guys are railing against...also, I don't think slim is over at all, most of my **** fits pretty slim but I do like playing with different silhouettes and volume and proportion...SF-approved slim fit every day is boring as **** and is close to being played, to use a term I absolutely loathe. Could never get used to the idea of a uniform like some posters do, I just need more variety, get bored quickly, kinda defeats the purpose of being "fresh" etc.
I like new and fresh as much as anybody. The problem is that 99% of people wear baggy, ill fitting clothes, so baggy will never look fresh to me. A guy at my office was bragging last week that he pays only $15 for jeans at Costco which are "nice and roomy," and that har har I "probably pay five times as much" for my jeans (lol). His jeans look like he took a dump in them. I see a lot of that. I prefer a more tailored look. If you want some diversity, you can try clothes which have some drape, which is not inconsistent with slimmer fits. I posted a cardigan waywt a while back (which Kent ridiculed for 15 pages) that was slim but long in the arms and body, which gave it some drape. Chunky knits work too. But it will be a long time (maybe never) before I wear saggy butt jeans.
