I usually get Faded Glory Stuff.

This.

Not by choice or anything, but it's just ended up this way for a lot of my clothes, because of Walmart.

Oh boy do I have suggestions for you!

As far as style/design is concerned, these are a pretty safe bet:




You want to go for subtle, simple models. Especially the first ones are prime examples of what I would consider stylish boots. Don't get anything suede, that won't last at all in the snow/rain.

I have some like the top ones just darker but they are not very supportive , and as i walk like 20 mins to and back from UNI with a ridiculously heavy guitar on my back i need some support. How about Doc Martens?

Or else you could always get the converse boots lol

I have never tried converse but they look flimsy as hell haha

Personally I'm not a huge fan of Doc Martens as I think they tend to look a bit clownish, but they're definitely great quality and will last.

Will you order them online or buy them at the shop?

Don't be silly.

I love the Converse Hi Top shoes. Would never get the boot sthough

yeh i am probably going to go to the shop , i get what you mean about Doc Martens they can look a bit BIG.

Converse high tops are glorious.

Exactly.

Well if you're going to a store that also has an online store, feel free to link it and I'll give you some hints! I'm not trying to tell you what to wear but I just love helping people out with this kinda stuff.

Chuck Taylors and Short sleve button down shirts look great.

Thats cool , i will let you know if i get stuck trying to decide

I don't know, man. Short sleeve button down shirts look tacky on a lot of people. Long sleeves, with the sleeves rolled up a bit looks much better, in my opinion.

Cool beans Holland!

Short sleeve button downs look good in 1/1000000000000000 cases.

Then I guess I am one of the few who can pull it off.

I am loving this extreme makeover vibe.

Indeed.

Exhibit A:




In the first one I look like an idiot. Really. An idiot. Button ups aren't meant to be short sleeved, ever. It's perfectly okay and encouraged to get a long sleeve button up (Also known as a REAL button up) and roll up the sleeves, it makes you look like a man ready to get his hands dirty.

As a person who follows fashion forums daily and constantly thinks in terms of clothes and style, sorry, no you do not. Nobody does.

hahhahha! That was just...I, I don't even have words.

Beautiful? Awe-inspiring? Eye opening? Informational?

I am dedicated to The Cause.

God you're like the guy in project runway

And you get what you pay for. That's what she said.

Shirts in that price range tend to have a pretty sloppy fit and quality.

Harbortown's right. Ben Sherman's polos and shirts are worth it. I've got a couple of Ben's shirts as well as Fred Perry's and they will look good for a long time. And the fit is just perfect.

There's 3 brands i don't mind paying full price: Ben Sherman, Fred Perry and Pendleton wool shirts.

Btw, here's a variant of the same shirt. Just like records.

It sounded like a negative comment, but thank you!
