Mandals aren't that hip - IMO - well they aren't for me, let's say.

Hugo Boss made some cool sandals, but they were 75$ and I know you'd never bite that bullet, so...

I'm glasd the topic is shoes. What's a great all-around summer shoe? I fuggin hate sandals/flip-flops, but want something I can wear with shorts.

When I'm not at work, I typically wear old school adidas.

are you talking about that shoe I posted? It's really a cool lookin shoe - I hope you get some, the brown though, look much better than the black.. Be sure you get that brand, worse case - contact the manufacturer. Let me know if you need me to help you find some, they're about perfect looking. I'm not going to lie - I go full homo on flipflops or nada, I can't deal w/ the big strappy shit. I like the thinner ones - I admit they're pretty baring, but i have dope feet, so it just works, brah.

I shopped there when I was a little younger. Now, it seems like everything has a huge emblem on it. I've moved to Banana Republic. The only thing I buy from Express is the 1MX shirts on occasion or possibly some pants (rarely). I've probably got 30-40 of the 1MX shirts, though.

Pushead2 05-23-2011 09:09 PM

Jeans wise, I'm hooked on the GAP 1969 Authentic cut....they are, for me, the perfect fit. Not too tight and not baggy and sloppy. I'm 27, so skinny jeans are a waste of time and unprofessional and baggy looks like shit quite frankly.

Simply Red 05-23-2011 09:12 PM

i've never really digested this skinny jean - they're a hit w/ the younger men.

I can't stop liking boot-cut, with that being said, if you don't like a skinnier cut pant, and if you're pant-shopping at banana rep. - be certain to try EVERY pair on prior to purchasing, thanks to still slightly flairing out the base of the pant; often skinny jeans don't look skinny 'hanging on the rack'

Simply Red 05-23-2011 09:14 PM

also, stop ignoring the pores around your nose. They make these blackhead removal tools that work wonders.

The skinny jean is just a fad, it will be gone soon enough. The boot cut is classic. Also remember most Jeans will shrink so dont buy ones that fit just "right", they wont after the first wash.

I bought the ones in post#278, unfortunately they APPEAR very narrow to the eyes, when I look over them, So I generally losely lace these, I'm not wild about them, they're hot and a little narrow, these are lined in virtual fur, the nike air feature is so so, but nothing to write mom back home, about.

They're still Cole Haan's so they will last and the Vale model IS waterproof. (nike only was responsible for the sole technology/materials)

...At the end of the day these just are not that practical and I somewhat regret forking out that 154$:shake:

Clay just ask her to 'shape it up' - that's the best lingo to use. Otherwise you'll go out of there looking like a baby chicken, try to tell her to ONLY tip the top of the hair and blend to the shorter sides and back of head.

I'm having trouble justifying spending over $100 on shoes right now.

I think I want to put myself at a $60 limit and hope that I find something cool on clearance.

I get random compliments all the time when wearing these, especially the first two. It's funny because I've been complemented by men, women, older people and younger people. It seemed really strange the first few times a random person told me they really liked my shoes.

Can't find a better picture of these online, but they kick ass.

Polo seems to have started making shirts only for black dudes. They make these giant logo shirts, price them at $200, and then sell them at discount stores for $30. Not my thing.

Eddie Bauer sucks. Cutter and Buck sucks.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the logos either. I'm wearing an express sweater right now that doesn't have even the tiny little lion anywhere. :D

I first fell in love with their military stuff and never looked back. Seems like a bunch of brands copied them and everyone is doing it now, though. [I could be wrong on Express being the first ones to do it]

It's clean, classy, simple and versatile, and that's why it's so popular.
