" That Yohji Yamamoto jacket doesn't fit you at all, why did you pay $700 to look like a hobo?! I got a $150 suit made for me by a Vietnamese tailor that fits me like a glove! "

Would be awesome.

Wow, have you seen the price of Levis 501 STFs lately?! Almost 40 bucks now at Sears.

The shirt is doing its "O" face. The shirt has a good sense of humor.

The thing I don't like about this is that my nipples are farther apart than that, so if I want them to be seen through the shirt I'll have to have it tailored, I suspect.

we should probably have a 'cred' check

ask all new members a series of questions, if they pass they're allowed in kind of like a bouncer

questions such as 'you need a pair of sneakers, what sneakers do you buy?'

answers would need to be multiple choice

depending upon your answer you'd be directed to a forum best suited for your tastes,budget,et cetera.

this would keep the Jcrew kids with the jcrew kids
the robbies with the robbies
and the ballas with the ballas

I think this is best, instead of having a nice mix of jellybeans we probably want to have several bowls of different flavors on the table.

Also, you could ask the mods to retake the test if your tastes changed, but you'd have to submit a fit along with re-taking the test to ensure that we all were separate but equal.

The question is, would you rather have this which is easily recognizable as a baller piece, or a Dolce&Gabbana black cashmere vneck that is completely inconspicuous and yet even more baller?

I could afford that balmain tee but not so sure on the maintenance, would probably cost $50 every time I wanted to get it cleaned because my dry cleaner would have to clean each and every hole one by one.

Don't forget off-season storage.
