A wide ranging discussion on fashion from two thoughtful people.
I really liked what they had to say about counter-culture dress codes. I remember what that was like in high school and as a young man. It was really hard to break out of that grunge style.
Clark chukkas are one of my go to nice, and casual shoes (boots). The Clark's are great value for the money too. I like their Wallabees too, but those tend to be pricier and are a less universal style.
A clean pair of Adidas Stan Smiths can look good too. Really any of the simple sneakers will look good with most outfits, like these, the Nike Cortez, or whatever. I don't like sneakers that look too technical or chunky, but that's just me.
Johnston and Murphy has a mixed reputation and are expensive, but I've liked the two pairs I've had from them. They've been worth their price too, the last pair I had from them lasted about 8 years.
I'm not much help on the specific question, but I hate to have it die on the vine. So, I'll offer what advice I have.
I know a couple of people who shop at DXL and I've heard them recommend it to others, so I'd check with what they're offering. The guys that I know that shop there dress well.
The other place I'd look is Bonobos. They've got a wider selection of sizes than most retailers and I've been happy with everything I've bought from them.
It's not wrong, but I don't know how helpful it is. I think it could be helpful for identifying complimentary colors, but it's missing some context about which articles of clothing are which colors.
For example, it lists pink as a matching color for light blue. IMO, light blue pants with a pink shirt works fine, but a light blue shirt wouldn't work so well with pink pants. In general you'd want your pants a darker color or cooler tone than your shirt.
Mostly settled. I make the occasional purchase to replace something that's worn out or to fill in a seasonal gap, and when I do I try to be a little experimental.
I wear classic jacket and tie stuff for work and American workwear when I'm home.
I was unaware of this community until this post, I joined shortly after.
I feel like it's always kind of a niche topic. Too many people see one style or another as something to be derided for being exclusive and/or unnecessary. Whether its calling suits classist or streetwear drops wasteful. Not too many people are interested in fashion in general, especially men's fashion.
Significantly more here. I never really liked Reddit, but a couple of my hobbies had communities there so I felt like I had to use it. I stayed away from anything that wasn't a niche personal interest and avoided the bigger subreddits and front page. Here I check out the front page frequently and am pretty generous with upvotes. It feels more like an investment in a community I want to be successful, and not like there's anything intrinsic to Lemmy that encourages it.

Questions is: Are Larry, Daryl, and Daryl palate swaps or unique characters?
That makes sense with what I'm seeing. I don't see any new posts, but yesterday I saw them on the 2nd or 3rd page if I kept scrolling.
Why was Exploding Heads allowed back? Is this related to the hack?
