[ARCHIVED THREAD] - can anyone explain these "fashions" to me?

Posted: 3/1/2006 10:36:54 AM EDT

I was at a mall today walking around and went to an "Express Men" store to look around.

They had pink shirts and jeans with holes in them. The jeans with the holes in them were $78.

Why you would pay $78 for torn jeans at a clothes store is beyond me. Why?
(I've seen these at Sears too).
I'm not trying to bash anyone but why would a man wear a pink shirt?

It takes a real man to wear a pink shirt.

we just has a pink shirt thread last week...many were proud of theirs. Had something to do with the 'ladies' liking them in pink.

As for the jeans with holes in them for $78, than can be explained by the fact that most people are just idiots.

I don't like the holes or the prewashed 1000 times jeans...I can do both on my own with a couple hikes and a few washes.

Pink is the new blue.

Think clean_cut.

Its the new IN look. Its that metrosexual look that scott574 craves. You know the messy hair, unbuttoned dress shirt. The look that says I am willing to all cummers fuck me in the ass.

I guess you have more options if you go both ways.

Pink was all the rage in the '80's when I was in high school. Pink and grey in fact.

While we're at it, what brain-addled sadistic limpwristed felching remedial dreamed up the idea that women's Gaucho pants should even be made, let alone sold and worn by unsuspecting customers?

Is there any way that the poor women who've bought these things will NOT look back at them in 5 years and ask themselves what the hell they were thinking?

I saw a young guy wearing what looked like women's jeans and he wore them hung really low and wore a wide white leather belt, a tight fitting polo shirt with the collar turned up and the messy hairstyle, some are even wearing eye make up now

The pants might look stupid, but I'd still hit it.

Who doesn't like being "in the pink"?

The ONLY circumstance for a man to wear a pink shirt are:

(1) ladies like it, and he hopes it will help him get laid.

(2) it is really a white shirt that he washed with something red, and now everything is pink, even his socks. (been there, done that - and was too cheap to throw it away)

I live in the metro NY area which means I can pretty much wear whatever the hell I want. Pink is good to go, and the women love it, but I think it's going out of style... Buddy of mine bought a Jones 3-piece that was black with pink pinstripes. I told him he went too far...

Posted: 3/1/2006 12:51:55 PM EDT

[#18]

pink shirts - who cares it's just a color that I actually like

ripped up sorry worn out pants? Thats idiotic but still to each his own. I usually mind my own businees because it would look really bad to run my mouth and get my ass handed to me by a bad sum bitch who just happened to be wearing ripped pants and a pink shirt.....

My apologises, DK, but after reading your response, I envisioned pink wooden shoes.

That is because they think you're gay and won't be trying to get anything off of them.

There are always contrasting styles.

Mrs Goon would not let me near her in a pink shirt.

I look good in "tactical" colors.....

Kahki...OD...etc

That said, wear pink if you want to!

Damn...brokeback mountain is just to the left.

Here is something you might not know about women deej - women love money.
Know why women like pwoerful men? They have money.
Know why women like men who pay 80 bucks for a pair of ripped up jeans? They have money.]

If you walk around, dressed in clothes that should cost little, but cost a lot, girls will know, and they will like you for it.
Sad, but true.

Not all women, but a lot.

This is your answer: what's old is new again.

Think back to the 1980s ...

Guys wearing pink shirts? Check.

Ripped up jeans (think hair metal bands)? Check.

Popped collars? Check.

It's what you see in Hollywood, only on the big screen. They've run out of ideas so they keep recycling the old ones that have died out. What's old is what's new again.

IMO classic men's clothing will never go out of style -- unlike pink shirts, ripped jeans and popped collars. Spend the jing on the classics and you'll never go wrong.

And if he feels comfortable in a pink shirt and won't give in to the ARFcom "retro"sexual trend?

I"ve got a teenage boy. Do you know that the more holes in the jeans, the more expensive they are?
