    Polo shirts are decent sometimes, if they fit properly. Polo brand shirts are stupid. They are social class aspirational. Proles want to be a part of the social class that plays polo. But they have never played or even seen a polo match. It's the middle and working class equivalent of the ghetto kid wearing fake diamonds.

    Nah I've seen that old flick on apple TV, Dalton was a little cheezy with the 80's rock band hair and greasy sweatpants......actually the old guy Wade Garret was much cooler, love me some old badasses......It takes a lot of Man to pull this look off, it for sure isn't for everyone, in fact it backfires on most.......except this sexy gunslinger....

    I am not trying to set trends. Elegant understatement is the goal. Our grandfathers wore nice shoes and repaired them and were not part of the trendy throwaway culture. I fully expect to be wearing my new cordovan Allen Edmonds 20 years from now.

    So glad I don't have to get dressed up for work, I basically go to work in PJ's and running shoes.....no guesswork and deciding for hours what to wear, which is what I normally do.

    Yes I have noticed that women buy throwaway clothes.

    Here are like a thousand example of how women should look
