I am still curious about this idea it's stylish to ditch cotton tshirtd for lyca-like material shirts. What planet does this occur?
OT: Cargo Shorts...
- Thread starter RU_Planning
- Start date
I think we have a different idea of what is high end. I can't think of one place that would allow cargo shorts that I would go to. And you would feel like a mook if you wore them there.
Cotton T-shirts rival "jeans" for being fashionably ageless. Have no idea what that guy was talking about.
A grown ass man should not go out in public in 2016 wearing a cotton tee shirt (regardless of logos or art work).
Also obviously, it is ok to do weekend errands in a crew neck Under Armour shirt (or comparable).
I understand this is not a mainstream view, but I feel like I should "pay it forward" to help others.

This might be the dumbest post I ever read and I spend a ton of time on the Current Events board.
Care to back up this frame of thinking?
It's fine. I was wired to aspire and achieve the American Dream. Part of that was understanding how "the othe half" behaves. Just "paying it forward".
So in other words you can't back it up.
I imagine you walk around in extra medium underarmour shirts and meggings, but that's only when you're not doing photo shoots.
Multiple people have said the same thing I said, that most high end restaurants in this area, even in NYC, don't have dress codes, i.e., cargo shorts would be ok. Unless you're telling me California has now become more conservative/snooty than NYC, I'm not sure what you're talking about. Are you telling me you don't consider classic NYC steakhouses as "high end?" All the ones I've been to allow cargo shorts - I might be a bit underdressed compared to many other patrons, but I don't really give a shit, as I like being comfortable and I don't care that much about the approval of others. You appear to be much more concerned with appearances.
"numbers", I just can't relate to being the guy who is under dressed in any setting. Not judging.
What kind of a microdick thinks rolling around on the weekend wearing a freaking Under Armour GYM shirt to do errands thinks he is better or more well dressed than some dude in a Pima cotton tshirt bro? No one cares chief. And if you are someone who does care, well then you have issues to work out .
No real man would GAF, much less voice that ludicrous opinion on a message board

I am not picking a fight, just calling a spade a spade.
You make a ridiculous statement as a truism and refuse to show any sort of evidence that it's true. Clown behavior.
I play at Maryland Live. 2/5 and 5/T. Used to play higher when I was backed (T/25, 25/50 with a straddle, etc.). It's tough sometimes when you're going through 200+ hour stretches where you just break even and don't make any money. Can drive you insane. Need to have an A+ mental game more than you need superior poker knowledge.
Don't wanna derail thread so if you want more info get at me on twitter @RandalGravesNL
Why do I agree with everything non political you post, but disagree with every single one of your political posts? Weird.
I still don't understand the benefit in removing pockets. I find it infinitely more comfortable to keep my phone, keys, and wallet in the side pockets where they can hang freely instead of being squeezed up against my waist.
Do you drive around in your Under Armour shirt and scoff at the number of people you see in cotton tee shirts? I can't imagine how lowly you must think of people in sports jerseys.
You are right that some things are timeless .... wing tips, a well tailored suit, black tie, white pocket square and white shirt, for instance .... cargo shorts are not on that list.
Being a man does not equal being a slob as some here have insinuated.
Being a man also doesn't equate to being a judgmental prick.
I tell you I can't wait to step out this weekend in my underarmour t-shirt, salmon colored flat front 4-inch about the knee shorts and wing tips. I'll need security to keep the women off of me.
Years ago, we had a guy at work who was a fashionista. He busted the balls of guys that he thought dressed in a slovenly manner. He was widely considered an asshole and needledick, and he creeped out the female employees. He wound up divorced, penalized by the IRS and tossed out of the partnership. A real success story--but a snappy dresser. Moral of the story: guys who judge other guys on their clothing are overcompensating for other deficiencies.

You can go to a decent restaurant in cargo shorts because it is allowed, sit there and feel underdressed... At least you should..... I like cargo shorts for casual dining and going about town.
It doesn't.
I'm all for staying current, and as I said, my cargoes are now strictly lawn-mowing and painting garb. And I also realize that current T-shirt fashion has embraced cotton/polyester blends, which lend themselves to a clingier, slimmer fit. I shun them because I'm not wearing blends in the summer - too damn hot for that - and also because my dedication to physical fitness does not stand up to the demands of body-hugging T-shirts. Also because you can never go wrong with a nice 100 percent cotton T-shirt (generally speaking, of course - I'm not saying you wear it to a restaurant).
But wearing performance-type workout T-shirts (UA, etc.) to do anything else but work out is the same as wearing basketball shorts for anything other than basketball, the gym, or running - it's a free country, but you look like you're 15 years old. And if you actually are 15, that's fine. But if you've graduated high school (either this year or 30 years ago), this is just not something you ought to do.
It's time for you to come clean. Is that you in your avatar? Your avatar cracks me up. Where is that from, and does that contraption work?
That's obviously my twin brother; I would never work out in a one-piece jumpsuit (unless fashion dictated I should).
I don't remember where that came from, actually. But when Rivals took its new format, and I lost my old Ralphie-with-soap-in-his-mouth pic, I stumbled across it (I think; I can't imagine what I would've searched on for that) and knew it was a winner.
And yes, those contraptions totally work. Why, in just eight weeks, I got all the way down from 240 to 255.
Ironically, an Equinox ad came up on the top of the thread when I clicked on it. I guess that is the planet where everyone wears underarmour tshirts all the time.
That's true....he does have some dumb ones on there. ;)
(too easy, you just walked right into that one - lol)
Honestly haven't seen blinged out jeans in years. Where are you hanging out?
Take it back, I have seen those in walmart but that's about it.
Weak, petty arguments. One thing (taking care of yourself) has nothing to do with the other thing (being a prick/bad husband/bad boss). Those are excuse arguments. Plenty of men manage to take care of themselves and are good husbands, bosses, people. It's not a one or the other choice.
Plenty of real men live their lives not worrying or thinking about what other men are wearing or caring what others think, and they are better men for it. Many other examples of men had insecurity and other issues who compensated by trying to be fashion plates, but they were broken men.
Nice to see we have more ladies on this forum now.
The more Scarlet Knight fans the better if you ask me.
