I'm not arguing against watches, I am just arguing that watches are not for keeping time, and if you can't afford a decent watch, no reason in wearing a crappy one unless it's for a sport.

this is my stance.

nobody will think ur weird for not wearing a watch

This is my view as well. Obv the more expensive the better, but if it still looks decent nothing wrong with rocking one.

diamonds dont hurt either

Men wear watches, but mean wear nice watches. If you can't find a nice watch, you're better of not wearing any.

I think I remember K-Mart filing for bankruptcy and closing lots of stores while I was in high school. I'd like to think everyone knows Wal-mart is still around.

That is correct. K-Mart filed for bankruptcy and at least in Canada what was left of the retailer was bought by HBC and converted to Zellers. Zellers has since been purchased by Target.

I am still surprised walmart is in business, how often do people actually need to buy walls?

Any suggestions for everyday shoes? I'm looking for something a bit nicer to wear, on the same level of dressy-ness (?) as Clark's DB (which I just got and like very much) but doesn't have to be necessarily a boot.

I'd want something black I could alternate with my desert boots..so I don't end up wearing the same shoes everyday.

Edit: And I'm poor so, nothing too expensive

Those look weird. Just get some real boat shoes. I don't know why people like Clarks; they are ugly.

No, I would believe it if vintage wore those. He's from Georgia and from what I can tell from his few posts itt is that he dresses like the typical college student.

Vintage definitely not trolling.

Funniest moment ITT is Vintage arguing with Thremp about the "fake buttons" on the sleeves of blazers/suit jackets etc being useless.

def not trolling, i'm wearing them right now

fwiw the buckle is never visible when i wear them with jeans. I think they look pretty decent for casual/comfortable.

But I also think most of the shoes itt are ugly so maybe my perception is ****ed up but idc they're comfortable as ****.

Those are actually pretty popular around the better dressing crowd at my school surprisingly. They're obviously strictly casual wear though and I'd never buy a pair

Well, they are useless, as in, you don't use them for anything. But by that anything from colour to stitching details to cut is also useless.

There's definitely a spectrum though. I mean of the "useless" things (by your definition), color/cut would probably be the most important to me. After that, 1,000,000,000 other things. And then.... sleeve buttons.

also -- those birkenstock clogs look ****in good. I'm pretty sure the haters think that it's going to look something like this
