bears repeating, cause Costa Rica is way nicer to look at than the inside of an apartment regardless of how baller the fit.

This would look better if you gave me the chore jacket.

jokes aside, this is good... but the shape your aldens in makes me a little sad.

As good as this, and all the fits from MC refugees can be... I miss the days when PG was the only MC poster with any real frequency.

eason gotta agree with other people, that suit sorta sucks (at least on you)

listi, I'll just say you need something that isn't skin tight on your legs, like some trousers... and a different pose

I agree, but why do you think this is? Since the average MC age is older, perhaps they are less fearful of the possible ridicule associated with sporting the "wrong" look? I found it interesting how some of the MC guys said they thought SW&D was hyper critical. I have to admit, sometimes this forum feels like being back in high school again. Kop the wrong brands, wear jeans with the wrong wash, wrong cut, etc and you will be made fun of (sometimes mercilessly). Often this forum creates it's own reality that has little barring to the opinions of the outside world. There is a huge desire for many members to seek approval of the group since they spend such a large amount of their lives here. Yes, I feel somewhat contaminated by even visiting here and attempting to fit in. That's what's refreshing about the MC guys posting here-- a group of outsiders to shake things up.

here, but I think they're great, from jeans to suit. (Forgive me for not using
the right clothing terms; I don't know how to do SW&D language (if there is
such a thing) and I'm not a native speaker.)

Oh, and I read some of you don't like detail pictures"”I do.

Okay, here goes:

Be gentle.


Fit is good, there's no ideal SW&D to emulate so everyone's take on the same outfit can come out differently but successfully.

In short, MC focuses more on what's "wrong with an outfit" while SW&D focuses more on what's "right with an outfit".

+1, MC invasion works because they're outsiders but not like "what the **** do you all know."

I thought NOBD's fit was really good. It's not fashion-forward but it's not trying to be, and everything fits well.

As long as everything else is fine. Right now the only real problem is the wash on those jeans, though.

his jeans started as raw that's just how they've faded (it's what happens if you wash regularly, no high-contrast fading)

Agreed, although I refuse to buy unless the stuff is on sale.
