ChiefsPlanet - Misc Free fashion advice for the style-challenged male.

Have you donated to goodwill recently? I'm sure you have an assload of clothing you never wear.

I just donated about 50 pieces two days ago. Good tax write off and giving back to your fellow man. Not like I was going to wear my 38x30 levis ever again. They'll go to some nice fatboy.

Yeah from time to time, more when I was married - I also buy from thrift stores - I'm not too proud for retro. I like some retro things - I may go to one Friday.

If you spend more than $30 for a pair of sunglasses you are a fool.

The cheapass ones have shitty lenses. The more expensive ones may as well but if you want decent sunglasses that are actually good for being outside they cost more.

Homework for Clay or SR. I know I've mentioned this a bit but I'd like some casual button-down shirts, mostly short sleeve but ok with long, that can be worn un-tucked and gives my options other than t-shirts. I suppose I could always go long sleeve and roll them up or is that douchey?

Can't be slim fit as those don't fit my shoulders well.

Check out Bugatchi. Great patterns and materials, and the bottom is cut for wearing untucked.

Hi Lew,

I like Polo Denim & Supply - Although some of that label is bad right now on ebay - but this one is nice, I think.

I see Bugatchi is found at Nordstroms? I can't order online, I have to try on. Prices range from high $20 to over $150! Looks a bit expensive for my taste but good looking stuff.

My other problem is I used to live where I wore jeans for 9 months of the year, so wearing different types of shirts wasn't an issue. Now I live where I wear shorts 9 months out of the year. It's hard to find shirts that are more casual but not a t-shirt, that don't look like you are trying to hard, because well, you are wearing shorts!

The word of the day is "Tropical Weave."

For that perfect balance between cotton and 100% linen.

And no, I didn't order those ****ing pleated shits, just wanted to show the material.

Negative, I'm not a fan of plaid patterns.

Good I am currently looking for a good pair of boots - not too heavy - just something I can wear on my winter walks when the ground is gross. Like some of the stuff from Wolverine.

I'm leaning towards picking up some Wolverines as well. Maybe Red Wings.

If you are looking for a quality boot with a slightly lower price tag, check out Chippewa.

Spend the money and buy Wolverine.

I've had a pair now for over 14 years and I'm about to have the soles replaced...

...because.

The Wolverine 1000 mile boots are a really great boot and great looking. In the American-made boot fan community, the Red Wing Heritage series have a better reputation, though.

Both of those boots (the 1000 mile and Red Wing heritage) are more expensive than the regular offerings from the companies. They're both American made and of better quality as well, though.

Careful not to over load on clothes that are geared for occasions Clay.

They're nice - you're coordinating a little better - you've improved - but don't pump too much jack into items you can't wear often. JMO
