this thread is full of people who only post in the CM forum apart from this thread. guys who have big alden collections are referred as "uncle" and guys who have only few pairs are referred to as "nephew".
**** is really ****ing weird.
There's nothing inherently wrong with it, but as someone who tries to improve his own style I'm going to be critical of other people's style. It's the same as if someone is trying to become a better poker player they're going to critique other players. Nothing wrong with it.
Maybe I should have put a
after my original "SW&D is a level" comment--of course it's a legit style of fashion, as is pretty much anything. There is plenty of terrible stuff posted in CM as well, I just think there's a higher portion of it in SW&D (some of the stuff is seriously so over-the-top). People can dress however the **** they want though which is the beauty of it.
However, I do think there are things that are pretty much universally terrible and most of those sandals fall in that range (same as if someone posted a $75 dollar pair of square toe Dockers dress shoes which happens fairly often ITT, every single poster tells them no and they learn).
A few months ago I actually called a couple people out for the uncle/nephew thing. Seriously ****ing weird.
