too many words bruh. tumblr’s about pictures of bros in ralphy-low
I have nothing to add to this. EDIT: except editing the punctuation of “tumblr’s”
Shout out!
To the 3 people who unfollowed me after that last post!
You’re the real heroes.
Anonymous asked: Authentically Inauthentic. One of my favorite posts in a long time. I totally agree, and have this narrowed down to two rules. 1. Wear what makes you comfortable. 2. As long as you don't look like a slob. For me, dressing well is a matter of respect. Respect yourself enough to dress properly, and thus respect the occasion for which you're dressing. When you do this, those two...

First off. Nobody’s getting shot here (except in soft focus amirite #rimshot).
Thirdly. Who’s beefing? I feel like I should be most likely to have a nemesis here! Am I in a bunch of beef’s and just don’t know it? If we are currently fighting let me know and we can arrange some sort of public blowout.
And to conclude, #menswear does take itself too seriously, but we...
eclecticstyles asked: What bag is it that you are always carrying? I've been looking for a bag lately and I like the style and construction of that one and was looking to see what the company had to offer. Thanks!

metcarfre replied to your photoset: That’s Why They Call Them Business Socks ooo! …
Is that jacket pressed from a 3-button to a two button? How’d you do that? And also, where did you get that knot you have in your in your lapel buttonhole? It’s a nice detail.
If you want to do it yourself check out An Affordable Wardrobe’s Guide. Mine just came that way (the 3 roll 2 is a fairly...

But I’ll get over it.

interweavesolutions-deactivated asked: Sorry, but your post today about wear chucks made me choke on my Diet Dr. Pepper. I couldn't resist whipping this up for you. imgur code# 9UDT7 suffix jpg
satchelless-boy asked: that punk interview just made you even cooler if that is possible
acuteobtuse asked: Why didn't I know you were into punk? Crass and the Misfits are probably my two favorite punk bands of all time. I don't listen to it nearly as much as I use to though.
howtotalktogirlsdialectically asked: I'm always curious about this part of your thrifted list: "Penguin Japanese Selvage Denim". Are you talking about selvage denim from Original Penguin/Munsingwear? This was a real thing?

thisfits asked: Confession: I've been kind of a casual follower. Until now. You've been killing it lately. Making sure I don't miss a single post from now on.
Portraits of Punk — Alex: Menswear blogger,... →
Mario Moretto, a friend of mine, is starting an interview series about punks and former punks. I’m the first interview, and I think it’s a great concept. I definitely talk about #menswear and style, so its relevant here.
I think it’s actually an interesting read. I can be articulate if I have a focus.

girouxmcisaak asked: Now all I can think about is Tumblr splitting apart into Menswear kingdoms ala Game of Thrones. House Dubmonk, House Wooster, House Ivy, and us over in House Thrift. They may have Pitti, but Tax Season is Coming.
deathofastylist asked: You are Tumblr's thrift king and I am her queen. fresh to death with money left over.

Hey Hey New Followers
I have to assume you came courtesy of The Silentist’s Ramen Noodle Budget series at Put This On.
Hello! Thanks for following!
I guess this is as good a time as any (and perhaps better than most) to tell everyone I’m about 1000 words into a (potentially very long) piece on thrifting a full wardrobe. This is largely inspired by the Ramen Noodle budget series and I hope it ends up...

bbgahman asked: I seriously hate you dude. As soon as I saw the most recent post I sad aloud "I bet you his Norwegian sweater is vintage L.L Bean he probably thrifted for like $10." Nope, it was $5. I've been to Boothbay and the L.L Bean in Portland, but I'm seriously moving there purely for sartorial reasons. I dub thee the King of Thrift brother.

Anonymous asked: First of all, love that sweater in your latest post. I was wondering: exactly what Sorels are you wearing there? I'm looking to buy a pair and have no experience with the brand. Thanks!!
