I'm wearing one right now xD

But then again I'm not a scrawny skater punk with an attitude, and I'm wearing my boxing shorts (not underwear but shiny blue REAL shorts ;) )

But as for wearing them with denim or a loose jacket as a fashion statement... http://i27.tinypic.com/15gypet.jpg

Wearing them in public is definatly redneck, i lioke them but a white t-shirt i think is better

i only wear them when i go to the gym
i only wear it there and back because its so conmfortable and gives you a little bit of motivation

This, and i hope somebody cuts off your fucking head you waste of fucking life.

If you're a chick, they're supposed to be called boy beaters, lol. I will never, ever wear a tshirt with sleeves again. I just take a pair of scissors to the sleeves and sometimes the neck too, and taa daa!

They don't ride up when you raise your arms, they don't choke you like normal tshirts, they don't get dirty as fast, and forget about sweat stains. Plus they look great on me with my swimmer's shoulders:D

girls wearing wife beaters = :)

Dude, that was one delicious pun. Your posts live up to your name.

You should probably learn what a pun is.

I'd wear em if I didn't have a beer gut. :(

Indeed.

I'm sorry sir, but you seem to be confused.

How the fuck do you mix those up?

i personally find them revolting

As a girl, I enjoy wearing white wife beaters.

You're a faggot.

You're a faggot.

You're a dimwit, if you can't tell that it's impossible for me to be a faggot.

Hahahahaah, I do this too. Almost all my shirts are mutilated wife-beater style tank tops that were once t-shirts.

that's hot

I can't agree more with anyone in this thread.

As a child I was forced to always wear wifebeaters or the breeze (in mid July) would give me pneumonia and ghonnorea and whatever else my mother could think of.

Now they are great when working out, either alone or under a shirt. They suck up sweat and don't look gross the way a sweaty t-shirt does. I like they in an assortment of colours, especially for wearing under button-up shirts.

They ARE acceptable outdoors as long as you are going for a beach/muscle look, you have the body for it, and if need be, you have a short or long sleeve button up of sorts to cover your arms.

That said, aside from making you look like K-Fed, jeans and a wifebeater sometimes go together even better than jeans and a white T.

I love the black ones. You can get a pack of 3 for like 10 bucks at Old Navy. Good quality and they look really good (I'm not a big fan of white ones; they just look rather trashy/thuggish).

I prefer them to T-shirts mainly because they are more comfortable and don't stick out past the collar of your shirt. Plus, I can take off my shirt and show off muscles without being really exposed.

I believe that's a waistcoat, not a vest.

I wear them around the house, when I run and under button ups, but almost never out in public with it on.

I hate the look of wife beaters or as my friends call them, muscle shirts.. I think they are ok to wear at the gym when your workin out and shit. But there is just something so.. White trash. About them.

God, that guy looks like a fucken tryhard pussy. He could never look tough, and him dressing like that..?
..laughable, not only because it's a cliche that only 'tryhard pussies' pursue.

I like a good blue wife beater with wide shoulder bits, BONDS is the only way to go. Our culture is different here though, it's not the mark of a cholo or a 'nigger' but a working class man.

I don't have a problem with wife beaters; as they are comfortable and good for working out in, keeping cool, and are even a decent undershirt, BUT they really shouldnt be worn as any other shirt would be in a social place...

and!!!
I never understood why they were called that, lmfao is that like the real trade name for them?

I know i've seen them called A-Shirts in some stores.

They're some kind of ridiculously popular fashion statement in the UK at the minute... You go through my town and you'll see tons of scrawny boys wearing them trying to look tough or some shit... They just make you look faggoted.

wearing them alone in public makes you look like a douche

This.

Protip: Black people look better in black than white, in my experience.

you will look hickish in one if you are out of shape and have a beer belly / outa shape un-tanned arms.

however, if you are in shape and look good, go for it bud.

Agreed.

I tried on one of these the other day, in the smallest size available. Much hilarity ensued, I actually looked seriously homosexual in a way I previously thought impossible.

I am off to the gay bars.
