The Clothes Make the Transman?

ProfPacker · 09-25-2014, 01:02 AM

I just went to Macy's because I like the selection of different brands. I just bought a black slim fit blazer. I bought a great navy country like front button sweater at H&M male that I plan to wear with crisp button down shirt. I am only buying men's clothes now and once I find a brand and size that looks good I look on ebay

What is it about those button down collars you chaps like?

I don't see folks wearing that style over here, not in the bft community anyway...or didn't when I was going out often enough to know, doesn't look to have changed according to fb.

I have one black Ben Sherman oxford shirt that looks great with a Death Kitty tie but on the whole I like a cutaway collar w/collar stays.

It's not a challenge or a comment on you lot liking and wearing them, just an enquiry as to why.

It is a regional thing, I think. No one wears them here in the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast where I am. A very old style.

I actually did like the look of them on me, though. For some reason the collar close to the neck looks good.

I've no clue; I have never liked them.

I tend to favor a point or semi-spread, I think of the button down as being oddly more casual looking than something with stays.

Anymore I have rare occasion to wear anything more than sort of 'outdoors' clothing which is a shame, but reality.

I really enjoy a banded shirt or shirts with French I don't wear polo shirt I usually wear long shirts all year around

I don't think the clothes make the man! It is what his heart and personality say! That is just my opinion!

I am Goodwill shopper myself.

If it costs more than $5.00 I will not buy it.

Nothing wrong with being a thrift shopper. I don't spend a ton of money on just one clothing item.

However a special occasion is coming up so I have to spend a bit more for one item.
