    Oxford Bags

    I didn't see those pants. Those have a disgustingly low waist. *yucky* I assume all of them are like that. Either that, or the guy needs to pull his pants up.

    Oxford Bags

    While I was browsing Amazon, I found these odd pants. It seems oxford bag type pants are back. Just search wide on Amazon's mens pants section, and you will find many of these.

    Which word for sweater do you prefer?

    I call a sweater a sweater. Because to me, it's called a sweater.

    Where to find high waisted pants for under $75

    I am in need of a suit (the only one I currently have, I am ashamed to say, is a grey polyester sharkskin suit), so I guess if I get one I should check out Joseph A. Bank. There is one in a nearby town, so I don't need to get it online.

    I have had these Bostonian loafers for several months now. I rarely wear them though. Why? They are ridiculously tight on the upper part of the opening, yet they rub on my heel. They are extremely stiff as well. Thus, I only wear them when I need to put shoes on fast, which is pretty much never...

    Where to find high waisted pants for under $75

    I think I found a suit with pants that have a higher than average waist on Amazon. While I am not interested in purchasing this specific suit, I wonder if this is a sign that there is a change in rises. The colors however, are horrible.

    What's something modern you won't miss when it becomes obsolete?

    I might have said this before, but I can't wait for all those abominable slim fit sport coats and pants to disappear.

    Hair cuts

    I tried putting in Vaseline with Brylcreem today, and it came out pretty neat. I will probably keep doing this daily, until I get Royal Crown. Then I would use Royal Crown and Brylcreem, or I would just try Brylcreem alone in completely dry hair. Another thing I could do is just keep using...

    Hair cuts

    I was wondering if there was a best way to put Brylcreem in. Some days, it makes my hair look neat and shiny, while others, it looks like a mess. Are you supposed to put it into wet, damp, or dry hair? I was also wondering if there is a paraben free pomade out there. One major reason I stopped...

    It is an amp. However, I do not play the guitar. I was trying it a few years ago, but I prefer the piano. I put some Vaseline on the Wolverines, as I apparently scuffed them while wearing them. They look as good as new, except for one dark scuff I can't remove on the cream part. I was wondering...

    I got my Wolverines. They are very comfortable, and seem pretty tough. The rubber sole isn't that noticeable in real life. They look a lot like vintage shoes (to me at least). The taupe part seems to be nubuck, or sanded leather. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWsZ5M4Yf8Y&feature=youtu.be

    Where to find high waisted pants for under $75

    I got my pants too. They seem very nice for the price. I can't post pictures yet, as I am unable to wear them (they need to be hemmed and cuffed). Although they are polyester, they don't feel weak, or light. They are actually kind of heavy, and they seem pretty tough. They can be washed in a...

    Let's see your mechanical watches

    I was thinking of doing something like that, but I don't know how much it would cost to implant an expansion band into a watch. How would this U.S. Polo Assn watch look with this watchband?

    Neon neckties. Since when can you wear an acid green tie and have it match with anything?

    Just letting everyone know I bought the Wolverines. I will take a picture of them when they come. I was wondering, were there any Brown and Taupe spectator shoes, like the Wolverines, from the Golden Era?

    Why didn't Holden make this car? Companies need to make their concept cars real more often.
