ITT i post stylish/fashionable stuff [PART 8]

[BishopGaines]

I respect the diverse nature of this thread (anyone who doesn't can let themsevles out), but it would appear that only the "old git" crowd are contributing; hence, the lack of streetstyle. If you're wanting more streetwear, take control of the situation and contribute. Simple.

[JeffyDOS]

Can confirm, don't even come here for fashion etc, just lurk for pics of jeffy's teeth.

Damn, you bros are making me feel like I need to do another whitening routine before I post again, so I can live up to your expectations

Hi guys,

first time posting in this thread, i've always been laid back about fashion and not been bothered about it, thinking i'll wear what i want, when i want and dont care if its in fashion or not, wearing joggers(sweatpants) everywhere and a baggy t shirt. But i am turning my life around, getting in shape and i am wanting to get a new wardrobe full of clothes, i am wanting ideas from the Misc Masters of fashion haha.

I am overweight, got some small moobs, big ass, big legs and calves, i am currently a 42" waist and an XL upper body.

Finding clothes has been HARRRDD! i have 0 pairs of jeans and 2 pairs of chino's, one of which i wear religiously (black chino's that have faded)

the one thing i dont like about todays fashion is the jeans/chinos that show the ankle and shoes with no socks. it does nothing for me.

If this isn't a post for this thread then tell me and i will delete, i just need some help and guidance.

If you're in the process of losing weight, I wouldn't splurge on a lot of anything at all, since you probably won't fit into it at a later point.

For now I would keep it simple.

Get a simple pair of denim that fits well. Doesn't have to be skin tight, but make sure it is indeed fitted to some degree, otherwise a more relaxed fit may accentuate your heaviness. Try the new Levi's 541 Athletic fit. You can always have them tapered at the ankle if they are too big.

Get some Mossimo T-Shirts (Only the ones made in India... the Made in Nicaragua ones fit like chit) from Target, or The Next Level T-Shirts off Amazon. Both are cheap and fit decent enough. Both around $6-$10 depending if they are on sale or not.

Then get whatever pair of shoes you like. A lot of us here like boots, in which case I would recommend some nicer ones since your feet won't shrink. Personally, I have a pair of clark's desert boots in beeswax and wolverine 1000 miles in cordovan. I love my wolverine's, but the clark's are nice and cheap enough to start out.

Pretty much, I would just rock that ^ until you are at a weight you would like to be at, and then come back if you need more advice.

You had me at Wolverine Cardovan.

I'm interested to see this "streetwear" people are complaining about. inb4 its Nike Joggers and air force 1's

You know what's even less obnoxious? A plain black/grey beanie. 350x more aesthetic too IMO.

Brb wearing plain black and grey chit to avoid appearing the slight bit "obnoxious. "

Is that what the Misc fashion crew has come to? Say it ain't so brahs

Not really. It's just that gray/black literally looks better and is far more versatile than that beanie. I can't even imagine it looking good in any fit, simply because the colors/patterns will look strange with any normal fit, unless you're entire outfit is fashion forward and you're playing with colors/patterns/silhouettes etc.




Anyways, here's today's fit. GF surprising me somewhere this evening, but it's still hot here, so wearing my shorts. I have 7" but I usually let them sit lower on my waist. Might just switch to 9" and wear 'em higher. Feel like these are too short from some angles. Looks fine here though.

What is the go to brand for no show socks? I dont want them slipping off my feet in my shoe. I have heard to get some with rubber strips?

Also, to roll, or not to roll shorts? I feel like it can help if your shorts are tapered well, but it may look kinda ****gy...

[gtrce]

My roshe's got torn up, so scoring a new pair of sneakers.

Ordered these, opinions misc?

Looks pretty dope...like a mix between the Air Max Tavas and Roshes. Link/more info on the shoe?

Spoiler!

I wear Falke [invisible socks], but it'll be interesting to see what everyone else suggests.

Always roll my chino shorts. I don't understand your "...[rolled shorts] may look kinda ****gy..." comment. I'd be more concerned with the energy/aura you're projecting (read: how others see you), rather than what you're wearing exactly. Whatever you wear, be bold in your approach. Also, cheers for the pic dump.

[John4789]

I tend to roll my shorts at least once. Except my H&M shorts, which are hella short already!

Gotta show off the beginning of dem quads.

'Mirin those Nike's. My Roshes recently got torn up as well and I've been looking for a replacement. These might be it.

Pairing my CPs with jeans & t today.

thoughts on these black high tops??

[Bingu]

fhucking lol this article made me laugh my ass off

Skinny jeans have been in style for approximately 3,000 years. (Or you know, since like 2007.)

http://www.buzzfeed.com/jessicamisen...pgp#.yevVqBYD6


theyre saying skinny jeans are out of style now.



idiots dont realize that some people have skinny legs, some dont. some are built like twigs(like me) some arent.

i would look fhucking stupid in boot cut jeans and straight fit pants

[Papillo]

thoughts on these black high tops??

i like em. Nice and clean and looks like it would go with most outfits. I suspect they are expensive though..

@bingu, more often than not, more dudes with skinny jeans one would look a lot better with slim's or slim straight jeans. skinny jeans on most men in my experience are mostly "misses" rather than hits.

[Puur]

cp's really started to grow on me, but I can't justify the pricetag.

I have no problem spending 300$ on a shoe, but I don't understand what's special about them.


Any love for huararches?

[CandyMane]

Havent wore bootcut in over a year. Never again

Those black shoe are nice

Dont like those above shoes.

Repped as many people as I could ITT

I have flashbacks of how cringe I looked wearing boot-cut denim. I just can't do it.

[flabs2abs1]

What's up fashion brahs, I just recently got into dressing nice and I have some questions. I have two pairs of H&M chinos that I kind of swim in, how much about would it cost to get both of them tapered all the way down both legs? Also what are some places I can buy shirts that are very slim, I know H&M is good, but that's all i've got for now.

You could probably get them tapered for about $10/pair at a local dry cleaners. Unless I'm getting a pair of selvedged jeans tailored (in which I would need them taken from the inside seam and it'd be a more delicate work), I would't spend any more than that.

H&M is a good start. You could also try Topman, Zara, Uniqlo, etc for some affordable slim-fit shirts.

Wow that's pretty cheap, thanks for the advice, repped.

Edit: What are some other staples I should get next?

gap and banana republic usually have shirts that are solid colors for around 10-12$. Cant go wrong wth h&m though.

Are you talking about t-shirts or button downs? Cause i've never heard of gap or banana republic having button downs for that cheap.

I meant t shirts. If you meant button downs then definitely nvm lol

[WhatUpBrah50]

Wanted a simple pair of black and white high tops that are very casual, saw these and decided to go for them. Was pretty cheap too, thoughts?

[JeffyDOS]

I guess it just depends what 'skinny' is to some people. A lot of people who don't wear anything fitted think that 'slim' is skinny.

I have a pair of UNIQLO stretch jeans that are pretty skinny, but I still love 'em. For the most part though, I like slim better, but still appreciate aggressive tapers to the ankle. No matter what though, I don't think I'll ever wear anything besides slim as far as denim/chinos go. Even straight isn't very flattering for me.

[JeffyDOS]

Anyone know of any nice fitting pairs of olive/forest green denim?

[flabs2abs1]

What's your guys opinions on beanies?
