Dressing Better Vol 2.0

gq was loved by this thread a few years ago. Seemed like everyone signed up for the free subscriptions. I've always liked Details better for some reason even though it's from the same people.
 
I just received the March issue of GQ and I'm starting to find the magazine unbearable.

Same, I've been finding more inspiration from Tumblr these days. It seems like all the outfits are very similar with subtle variations in accessories. I've been a subscriber since 2010 too. At least I've only paid about $20 total for all these issues.
 
GQ's "Street Style" pictures look like homeless conventions in SF, Skid Row, and NYC

I'm not even trying to hate, but come on man.

If they don't clash/easy to wear with other clothes you have on, then it's versatile.

And yes, they are neutral colors. Not loud, not bold. Earth tones.

Didn't think it needed spelling out. I guess it does. :rolleyes

Less than critical thinking would get you to this conclusion, based on the responses already given.

Not really whining but tired of the same stuff, man. I have issues from 2008 that are nearly identical to the current issue.

I think GQ somehow gave the idea to young lads to rock a tie with everything tho. :lol
 
Sup, Bros . . .long time no post, but I'm always lurkin'! And GQ is becoming a little monotonous, but hey, they made Anthony Davis look decent! LeBron's shirts looked like underarmour though; they need to chill out with the pinning. 

Today:  

Picked up some Clarks I've been wanting forever; they should be cool for spring.
 
im seeing quite some bad reviews on the park avenue AE on their website....

anyone have a pair? thoughts?

This thread is sponsored by AE more or less. I'm sure folks can chime in. AE is great when on sale.
Thrifted mine. They get the job done.

Never pay retail for AE's though. Always at least go second's list. As for the park ave in particular, the 5 last is fairly narrow so if you have a wide foot, go to an E.

what are y'all expecting to see? what is it about menswear that GQ could tell y'all that you don't already know?

i just enjoy flipping through it at work.. seeing some clothes..smelling colognes and looking at beautiful women.. i do enjoy some of the articles as well.usually the ones about dudes smuggling drugs and stuff like that. lol. was worth the $5 i got the year for to me. Ye shrug.. i guess its like me complaining about the nba all star sat night every year but still watching.

on a side note..do y'all iron your outfits the night before? I need to start usually i wake up too close to my shift to get fresh :{

You just stated why the magazine got old to a lot of us, my friend.

It's cool for a lot of starters but that's about it. For a deep discount, nothing is wrong at all, especially if you're reading. I wish the general public would just read more.

Those are nice Clarks. I'm also a fan of the red ones with the crepe sole as well
Thanks, man! I actually wanted the red ones initially, but I heard some bad reviews concerning the bleeding on jeans and onto the soles, so I decided against it.

Good eye, my dude! I consider The Black Frank White one of the greatest story tellers of our time.

Yeah, this month had some pretty good articles about Uber and about Bron Bron . . .The drug trafficking articles are always pretty exciting to read too!
 
Can the crepe soles on my MacAlister boots be redone? If not, what is the best way to maintain them since I read that crepe soles aren't very durable.
