ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

no you should tailor jeans

also iron a centre crease down the middle of each leg

tbc I'm asking about shrinking to fit not tailoring, tailoring would just be shortening the legs a bit

i should correct that - you can certainly hem the legs but taking in the waist is a bad idea.

if you want to try to shrink them in hot water keep in mind they're not going to shrink much more than 1" in the waist and length, and that while some APC jeans will shrink, some APC jeans are sanforized and won't shrink. so make sure they're actually unsnaforized before you try to shrink them.

also if you try to shrink them aggressively with hot water, the color is going to change

sell them on ebay

how about a big ole belt

drink beer until they fit

best part, this watch is $44(!!) and gets rave reviews. Casio mdv106

i have only ever owned one watch my grandparents gave me a black swatch with aqua details and i wore it for my 7th grade year

yea i think this is the last time i wore a watch too. it was a timex expedition, clunky green plastic watch w/ a leather and nylon strap.

inherited a 40 year old speedmaster from my pops :DD

siiiick

I occasionally ebay a cheap manual watch or two. They're fun to wind!
I have one kinda like this that I got for about $30:

I can't stand it if I forget to wear a watch. Throws off my whole day.

where do u keep ur phone

I mean just cuz of muscle memory, dramatically looking at my wrist all the time

lifehack: get a tattoo on yr wrist that says "you are special"

find it mega unsettling forgetting my watch also, it's the absence of it on my arm, like the small weight on your wrist. also taking phone out of pocket is not as easy as checking a watch, and watches are cool.

ultimate low is an apple watch imo.

my watch

i only see apple watches on a couple of notable types and they're the types you want to run away screaming from

I am special yeah, did you see that special watch I posted?

i only see apple watches on a couple of notable types and they're the types you want to run away screaming from

in my last job a lot of people were big apple fanatics and i could kind of forgive them i guess, but i still found the watches not partic pretty and seemingly useless. watching someone tap shit into a watch is like i dunno - watches are mostly jewellery.

I am the ultimate low.

sorry jeff

lol educate me please, what the hell do you do with that thing?

does it do more than "stops me having to take my phone out my pocket to check the time or a text message"?

I am also Jeff

guys anyone who wears a watch at all is actually bad

my dad walks around and says things to his wrist like this, "see you soon ... question mark ... smiley face"

I agree with the above analysis

I'm bad

never expected watches to divide us so bitterly

u guys need to learn to live for the moment

To tell time!

dudes be hella judgy yo

Activity tracker, quick way to log water intake, check bus arrival times, shopping list, find my wife, notifications, etc. mostly things that would be slightly more cumbersome to take my phone out to do. Bus times is especially useful because I can check arrival times on my watch while also carrying a toddler.

I have no delusions that it is stylish though.

find my wife

it has yet to find me a wife, but I hold out hope

Keep trying!

have u asked it

is tinder not optimized for the apple watch?

apple devices have never been able to get that function right.

brb installing tinder on watch

vigorously shaking your hand is a lot easier than swiping

my watch

people always make the "oh if you have a phone why do you need a watch" argument - i think it's stupid, checking yr watch is way faster/more convenient than pulling yr phone out yr pocket

google glass, otoh

lmao Google Glass
