ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

hurting don't let these guys stop you from levelling up

a true gentleman disdains the barbs of manchildren

will be a good ice-breaker if you decide to become a pua

envoy hats are not pua

ok ugh

any winter hat that does not cover your ears is some bullshit imo

yeah that guy came up in my gis, definitely in the "against" column. I think the ones that are not all-fur might look a little less dumb on a young guy though.

"for"

"Hurting, don't buy a karakul"

when the temp drops below 15°F (as it has this week) idgaf what i look like and wear one of these

yea those hats are really really warm, there are fleece ones available that look less ridiculous than fur imo

the inca-style knit hat with the ear flaps are also pretty warm

this year i just have a regular knit hat but it slightly longer than usual so it covers my ears

the little button thing comes off so it is just a simple grey hat. may be a womens hat i think but it doesn't matter

maybe boring af but just a regular super tight-knit acrylic tuque is my go-to these days, maximum warmth and if i lose it they're a dime a dozen. right now i have a "fancy" one that is $20 regular but got half off, if i should lose it i will go to the dollarama to replace

i own so many watch caps / tuques whatever side of the border youre from

love the karzai hat

I buy cheap as hell navy acrylic toques from army and navy and lose 3 or 4 a winter

Yeah I have a cheapo brown faux-fur lined aviator earflap hat that I wear on cold days, p warm just because of the amount of coverage it gives you in spite of the cheapness. It looks just slightly silly, but endearingly so imo.

It doesn't even have a brand, I think it was from a Chinatown table or something.

I never know what to call them! I always use either "beanie" or "toboggan" but neither sounds just right.

from wikipedia:

Other names for a knit cap include: sock hat, knit hat, knit cap, "bonnet", sock cap, stocking cap, tossel cap, ski hat, toboggan (Southern American English), burglar beanie, watch cap (American English), woolly hat, snookie, sugan, or chook.

yea i call them "knit hat", "winter hat", "beanie"

cap i always think is a baseball cap

I have a blaze orange acrylic beanie that I really like until I washed it, now it looks dull and pilly. Fuck washing a hat is real.

hey goon I found the perfect hoodie for you:

thank u this guarantee give me piece of mind

just zip, zip, zip away the years

At least it has a zipper.

the last hoodie most of us will ever need

finally, a hoodie

i would be v surprised if i had ever paid more than like 30 bucks for a hoodie but ihta i kind of want this stupid $89 hoodie. in charcoal.

is it a leap of faith to think that a crowdfunded "hoodie company" will be around in 2040 to happily refund your purchase price?

I have to admit it's a fairly nice looking hoodie.

i want to lol at a 25-year hoodie but the hoodie i am wearing right now is 10 and going strong.

just buy like a carhartt hoodie that will last you as long for half the price

P much. Most stuff designed to be workwear will last. I mean even my shitty-ass offbrand hoodie I bought 12 years ago is still wearable, a little faded and the shape is flabbier but it's not too bad. My champion hoodie IDK how old it even is but it still looks pretty good.

my uniqlo hoodie got holes in the elbows in a few years but tbh i put my elbows on a LOT of stuff

lol

Guys I now have my very own pair of Aldens and a pair of Allen Edmonds! I have a lot to say abt men's v. women's shoes.

nice, what aldens?

I feel like when I next come into substantial disposable funds for Man Stuff I'm going to take a trip to Knot Standard and/or Suit Supply. Did I ever tell you guys I ran into Tim Gunn at suit supply? I was a total fanboy and shook his hand and told him he was an inspiration and shit, it was ridiculous. Pretty sure I was in levi's and a zip mock at the time

Quincie just made partner at Olde, Whyte and Maile LLP

zip mock noooooo!!! I never knew the names for those things but they are one of my biggest fashion pet peeves i think

that and cowl neck and hi-lo hemlines

zip-neck sweaters are the worst

and ribbed sweaters. Often the two concepts are combined.

FWIW just ordered my first Ledbury sweater -- standard navy V-neck. It came down to $70 and I'm low on sweaters I can wear to work.

on the subject of worst-ever menswear, may i contribute "pique-knit polo"

word. Also, long-sleeve polos.
