Seriously, I don't believe they are going for a 'heavy metal' look....I do agree the blazers are stupid though.
And just what is wrong with my name? I have been on here since 03, original name was The Agency, until the site went down a while back. Not that your Aussie ass would have any military experience to know what the hell it means anyway...

It's not a matter of the price. It's a matter of paying that much for something that looks that bad and most likely isn't made from quality materials. I've paid well over $200 for a pair of jeans that are made from raw, first cut denim and fit like I grew up in them. Some people may scoff at this but it's like anything; if it's what you want then you will pay and I have no qualms paying for clothing that I want, just like some people have no problem paying outrageous amounts for a vehicle that they want or a new television or some sporting gear or a fucking guitar.

Don't get me wrong, I buy over half of my clothes from thrift shops. However this is mixed with certain, usually high-priced pieces, that I find around the place.

I suppose my point is; I would never pay money for that brand of clothing. To the OP: Buy what you like dude, just don't claim something is awesome when it sucks. Go check out a 'cool' (used loosely and pretentiously I know but fuck the haters, it's true...) club in your area and see what people are wearing. You'll look like a idiot wearing that shit while guys in ripped singlets, captains hats, $400 jeans and battered boat shoes take home the hot broads. Fuck you probably don't go out anyway. Fuck you probably don't give a shit.

Fashion is the most subjective thing in the whole world

Wear what gets your motor going.

Well $200 for a pair of jeans isn't totally ridiculous, I'd spend that much on some real nice raw selvage denim. But that shit, jeez. That looks like not even half the quality of what I'd get.

Affliction was pretty damn hot, but I'm not into this new fighter's name on all their shit. The other problem is it's starting to attract the 14 year old crowd (whether on purpose or not, I have no idea). It used to be the shit to wear around here if you wanted a nice looking t-shirt. Now Ed Hardy is starting to pick up, but I'm way too cheap for that. I'll pay over $200 for jeans, but I'm not paying $100 for this piece of shit shirt (http://content.nordstrom.com/ImageGallery/store/product/MediumLarge/7/_5607427.jpg)

While I agree that most Affliction designs are retarded, I got a free t shirt from them while shopping at The Buckle. I spent a certain amount at the store and they gave me a free Affliction shirt. It's just a shirt advertising some UFC fight. I only wear it around the house but it fits very nicely and feels great. I just wish they'd use their material for better designs...

Take the same money you would have wasted on hollister, get some tailored jeans/pants and a tailored pink shirt if you really want.

It doesn't really matter what brand your clothes are as long as they go together well and the end result looks good. If you want a clean cut look, stay away from ripped jeans. Get a pair of straight-cut jeans with a darker denim, preferably not prefaded.

If your going for clean cut then wear some fucking slacks or khakis. Not only are they comfortable as hell, I think they last a little longer then jeans. Also, if you want unique things either learn to screen print your own stuff or http://www.etsy.com/category_sub.php?tags=clothing.men

I buy clothes exclusively from WalMart and similar superstores and thrift stores.

It's cheap, practical, and is easily worn in.

I laugh at people who spend $200 for one pair of jeans at those "upscale" stores, when I can buy 20 pairs of jeans that look exactly the same minus the (stupid) logos, and are more comfortable.

http://www.cloggs.co.uk/content/ebiz/cloggs/invt/298/wrangler_110088lowtech_7465_m_01.jpg

In terms of shirts, I wear:
http://di1.shopping.com/images/di/38/4d/4e/4f5f79364d3756596f6543526143466f305f41-150x150-0-0.jpg
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Ashirt.jpg/413px-Ashirt.jpg

A-shirts are easily obtainable at WalMart at $10 for a 3-pack. The button-up shirts are purchasable at thrift stores for $2-6 each.

The only really expensive thing I wear are my Vans shoes, but only because they're so comfortable and I got them on sale.

Yeah.

Parents can be stingy when it comes to clothes.

Nonetheless, when I move out on my own this is still the way I'd shop for clothes. Spending less on clothes lets you get other more expensive things.
