>>18095456
yes. slightly more. i would break or lose those ones because i'm a retard & the folders fit my nose better.

>>18095458
okay based can't really argue with this

>>18095456
Yeah, I need higher quality and I don't like that type of acetate.

>>18095968
I'm a big fan of Matsuda. Extremely high quality. I own these M2040s but with black acetate. I'm posting this version to show you can get the brown acetate like the OP. They are just like a better version of Clubmasters.

>>18096038
>clubmasters
The onions choice

>>18096045
Well yeah. They look okay, but they are both generic as fuck and low-quality because they are RayBan. That's why I suggested these instead.

>>18095456
Oliver Peoples is all you need.

>>18096069
>overpriced Luxottica brand
that being said, I really want a pair of their Gregory Peck frames

>>18095456
No that’s exactly what I have. But mine are black.

>>18096078
The blacks ones are just so boring to me
Tortoise looks better

>>18095456
Yeah, I have the meta raybans with built in video camera
Pretty good

>>18095456
the plastic is too thick and makes me sweat by the way it sits on my face

I stole like 25 sunglasses from different stores. My face is really ugly, and I'm too scared to try them on in front of pieces of shit. None of them look good, I kept them though because I finally have something interesting.

>>18095456
wireframe just looks better on my face. a little more comfortable too io

>>18095456
MONEY HOES AND CLOTHES ALL A NIGGA KNOWS

>>18095813
has anyone on here bought persol's folding model? i'm v interested but i keep hearing mixed things on their quality, and quality matters a lot more with folders.

>>18096058
name a better folding sunglass than rayban other than maui jims (they don't work on my face)
i consider all non folding sunglasses pointless now. but there's not many alternatives to ray ban.

>>18096457
I think most brands are better than Ray Ban at this point

>>18096457
I can't, but to be honest I didn't realize folding was so important to you and I'm not aware of other glasses that can do it. If you are willing to compromise on other areas just to have folding glasses, then maybe RayBan is the right choice.

>>18096939
>>18096457
Persol makes folding sunglasses

>>18096074
They are undoubtedly the best Luxottica-owned counterpart and, in terms of quality, are highly comparable to Leight when choosing a Japan-made frame.

>>18097014
What is a non-luxottica equivalent brand?

>>18096260
Imagine being so fat you sweat from the exertion of wearing sunglasses

>>18095456
I wear a pair of port tanger because they were super cheap during the sales season, I prefer their designs in comparison. to brands like jacques marie mage.
I look like shit on a pair of wayfarer, tried once at the mall and never put a pair on my face. But. I get it buying a pair as a one and done

>>18097124
Port Tanger are so ugly to me

>>18097128
I have these, I think that they are discontinued. But mine. also have black lenses.
I cannot complain, bought them for like 80 bucks during the sales, I cannot complain.

>>18095456
they are heavy and leave a mark on the nose when wearing longer than 20 min

I'm thinking of getting those Carrera, I like the styles and color

>>18097108
Do you people only know JMM? They make good shit but I swear I only started hearing about JMM a ton after the whole succession fashion style wave.

>>18098067
Are Carrera any good? Where are they made?

>>18096455
the tolerances on the hinges can vary greatly, from tightly clicking into place to loosely flapping around. Tightening the screws can help, though this problem comes from the factory, not from use. If you want a pair, i would recommend buying a pair in person, so you can check the quality is ok.

t. Persol wearer for 1 year.

The more my wardrobe has expanded, the more I need more pairs to suit different outfits. Desperately trying to justify buying the Walker JMM sunglasses.

I really like sunglasses, I'm not one for jewellery so it's the only accessory I can wear, except for a gold chain in the summer.

>>18095456
for me it's knockoff Clubmasters

>>18098193
Why not just get Clubbie clones from a better brand?

>>18098557
Ray Ban was sold to Luxottica and it's been a race to the bottom ever since. Modern pairs made today are mostly made in China

>>18098067
Most carrera models are fucking based as fuck. 70s retro aesthetic, great lenses, solid build. I own 3 different pairs

>>18098113
What are other options for chunky, high quality, hand made glasses?

With all this talk of folding sunglasses, I'm curious, what is the benefit exactly? Do they come with a case that can fit in your pocket? Because if not, what are you doing with them when you take them off? If they're just going to sit out somewhere, then they don't need the folding capability. Forgive me if I'm missing something, I just genuinely don't understand the hype behind this feature.

>>18095456
*Presses dents onto the top of your nose*
Nothin' personnel

What do you all think of clear frames? Fad or timeless?

>>18095456
Nope. I have a pair of wayfarer sunglasses, and wear Oliver Peoples O’ Malley eyeglasses. Relatively cheap, look great, decently non autistic.

>>18095456
I need something a little more high speed

>>18098816
You can fold them up and put them in your pocket
That's based

>>18099048
Really not more convenient than regular glasses. The space you save in length you lose in thickness. I do not see the point of them.

>>18096045
i would say thats true for the prescription glasses but not for the sunglasses

w2c clones? aooko doesn't make them anymore

>>18098966
Imagine needing silicone earhooks as an adult

>>18099963
pretty much any brand makes a wayfarer clone
what's your budget?

Thinking about making these $660 pair of handmade Deutsche sunglasses my one and done.

>>18100178
under 75. picked some off zeny or something they are fine but not close to wayfayers

>>18100462
Zenni makes complete dogshit. I have no idea why people mention them at all

>>18098677
the classic ray bans are made in italy (clubmaster classic, wayfarer classic, round). people criticize rayban, but no one ever recommends another sunglass with glass lenses and acetate frames, and it's bc luxxotica makes money from volume like every other large business. they even have sales on their own website if you wait and know what you want. but if you think they're overpriced, go ahead and start your own sunglass company and do your own marketing and try to sell what ends up being $800 sunglasses. you can go into any city center and find a store that sells raybans in your size that will last for 10+ years. the only thing I dislike about rb is the logo on the front but it's not worth paying 4x for other brands without the logo

>>18101704
Ray Bans don't have glass frames, and "made in Italy" is not the flex you think it is. Just because some Jeet in Italy made something doesn't mean it quality

>>18097108
I'm not spending $800 for a pair of sunglasses with plastic lenses

>>18095456
For me, it's the American Optical Saratoga
It's better than the Wayfarer

>>18095456
Are polarized lenses even worth it?

>>18102764
Yes, I'll never go back
The ultimate sunglasses redpill is polarized Prizm lenses from Oakley. It's like seeing the world in HD

if you want wayfarers, get the ones made by bausch & lomb, those have the best lenses in sunglasses ever made

>>18103010
>Luxottica is le bad because reddit said so

lol no one tell him
I don't buy rayban bug fag
keep being proud about your empty shitxotica names made in "italy" lmao

lmao

>>18103200
>dude, racism!
you are so MAD! holy shit are you crying?

>>18100206
looks like a pair i got at a dollar store for 1.50

>>18103174
Why do you think that something being made in Italy makes it high quality?

>>18103434
Just admit you're racist and it has nothing to do with quality, price, etc. You just won't buy something a Chinese person touched because you're racist
But I'm sure 80 year old Bianca Mozzarella does just as good a job screwing hinges on with her shaking hands while she works next to Ranjeet Singh punching out acetate, but hey, all made in Italy, right?

>>18101715
Why is /fa/ so autistic about glass lenses?

>heavy (especially on JMMs which are already bulky
>crack and shatter upon impact
>limited options for tints and transitions

Just use plastic, for 99% of people there’s no different. I recommend Essilor Eyezen.

>>18103517
It's the classic old > new mentality. Nevermind polycarb lenses are just as good in every way

>>18100110
Lol my head is huge, I doubt you'd fare better with those glasses, especially while dancing in a club. I don't want them to fall off my face when I'm leaning down to do a line

>>18095456
I don't want plastics in my face.

>>18103797

>>18096069
Oliver Peoples is overpriced but I’ve bought 3 pairs of them because they just work so well for me

>>18104086
I really want the Gregory Peck frames for my glasses as the Cary Grant frames for sunglasses but that's like $1k+ for both of those

>18104271
>he keeps going
I can only imagine how red this dude's face is right now

>>18104224
The greg pecks look dumb on me but if they work for you definitely go for it. This pair works so well for my face

>>18104086
I can't really find a pair that suits me like OP so I might go for them. What models do you have? I've heard they vary in quality depending on the country they were manufactured in (Italy, Japan, etc)

>>18105201
There are only three countries in the world that produce acetate, Japan, Italy and China
The ranking for quality of eyewear goes in that order as well. Japanese acetate is considered the highest quality and Japanese craftsmanship is considered the best.
Italian acetate is considered good, with Mazzucchelli 1849 produced acetate to be the best quality Italian acetate out there
Then there's Chinese acetate which is considered the inferior option

Knowing that all brands get their acetate from those countries, it then comes down to the individuals working in the factories in a specific country putting them together. In the USA it's probably Mexicans, in Italy it's Chinese workers, in Japan it's old Japanese people in their 80s

>>18105271
Good to know, thanks. After searching around it looks like Oliver People's still have a lot of individuality outside of Luxottica but the ones made in Japan seem to be vastly higher quality than anything else in their collection in terms of build quality.
Buying online it turns out to be cheaper than a lot of individual brands as well surprisingly. They don't seem to be any more expensive than any other brand from where I am in the UK.

Do they make make me look like a douchebag? Yes
Do I care? No
Are they overpriced? Yes
Do I care? No. The Prizm polarized lenses are worth it to me

Ray Bans brown lenses are whack. I love acetate tortoise shell so I got some brown clubmasters and the color of the lenses makes me sick. My brown Maui Jims are in a completely different league. Even the G13 Ray Ban lenses are way, way better than their brown lens.

Anyone tried Ray Bans Chromance lens? I only like Ray Ban styles, but I actually need good lenses like Maui Jims.

>>18105587
Can't you pretty much take any frames to an optometrist and have them cut lenses for you?
I'm thinking of doing that, especially since optometrists typically have lots of options for their lenses

>>18095458
Best sunglasses I've ever owned

>>18105610
Idk, but that sounds more expensive than would be worth it for Ray Bans, unless you have a prescription.

>>18105610
yes
also pro gamer tip if you (or parents if zoomer) have optical insurance that covers glasses and if you don't need vision glasses you can get free sunglasses once per year on most plans for the cost of your copay as long as you get an eye exam and have puck lenses cut + installed. you get to keep the original lenses too and they'll swap them in usually as long as you go in on a different day. just call your insurance and ask. im a burger might not work elsewhere. they let you out of pocket the difference if you want really expensive shit above your plan's limit too.

>>18105587
i don't like their lenses either. i had puck lenses put into my folding wayfarers. the stuff my optometrist does gives way better visual clarity (i forget to take them off when the sun sets sometimes) but blocks enough light that i can comfortable stare into a rising/setting sun on road trips. they've been reasonable to get done when my insurance hasn't covered it, even if they costed more it'd be a no brainer turns any decent frames into S tier sunglasses.
i won't wear glass lenses because if i did i would have lost my eye a few times already but thats a personal problem.

I remember Gargoyles glasses being the shit back in the 80s, after the U.S. military adopted them (in clear) and especially after Arnold wore them in The Terminator.

>>18105857
$100 for non prescription in most places

>>18104437
those arent even remotely simuliar are you dumb?

>>18106286
no, dumbass he's saying use reverse search

>>18104224
They tend to charge about $200 more for collaboration works like those but you can usually get that knocked off again by going to a place or site that sells under rrp.

>>18106802
>get that knocked off again by going to a place or site that sells under rrp.
Any suggestions?

>>18107017
You can quite literally just type in the model of glasses you want to buy on a search engine and find them cheaper on most sites on the first page alone. Just do a quick review check on the site themselves for reliability and you're good to go. I'm UK based and recently got about £200 off the rrp with no issues.

>>18095456
You guys are the most fashionable autists I know. Can anyone recommend a good pair of transition glasses that look like regular-old glasses? I used to wear glasses but ate a lot of carrots and stopped playing computerspiele. The ones I had were given to me by my ophthalmologist and were relatively thin height-wise, and rectangular-looking; they were pretty sleek. I want a pair of transition glasses that aren't prescription and look like regular old-glasses so I don't have to take them off indoors--too lazy to take them off every time I step indoors or go outside, better to just have them sitting on my face all day. It's very important that they aren't prescription because I don't want to ruin my sharpshooter eyes, and don't want to look like a faggot with shrunken eyes.

I know that I am asking autists for help, so I must point out beforehand that I don't give a fuck about the brand, I'm not a brandfag; I'm not trying to impress anyone with my superior gentlemen-like fashion. I just want some glasses. Hell, I'd settle for some /csg/-tier glasses if it weren't for the fact that I'd be absorbing hazardous material into my skin by having them sit on my face all day.
>>18095458
>accidentally folds them the wrong way

>>18095456

Polarized or mirrored on the outside?

how is cutler and gross anons?<br>i need a new optical soon

>>18108363
>>accidentally folds them the wrong way

How? Have you never owned a single pair of glasses in your life? You'd have to be a complete moron to fuck that up.

>>18108481
I have only ever heard good things but I don't have any experiences personally

>>18108481
>cute glasses anon, what are those?
>gross

>>18095458
Might look into getting a pair of these or folable clubmasters

>>18098203
I get my clubbie rip offs form ebay for £2.50

>>18108475
I like mirrored lava red lenses. But mirrored lenses have a distinct mall glasses look, so I go with brown or grey lenses for good pairs.

my gut says that mirror glasses are tacky and cheap looking and distinctly mall-core like anon said<br>but on the street my $2 gas station mirror glasses seem to get the most "those are cool!" and "where'd you get those?" especially by women so uhhh maybe i'm wrong and autistic.

I bought a pair of Persols and the glass lenses are too heavy to stay on my face. Even had the fit adjusted at Sunglasses Hut and they still won't stay on. Fucking waste of money. They're so cool, too.

>>18095456
My latest cop. Heavy Tropic by crap eyewear

>>18108871
Just like with anything else, it is usually the tacky stuff that normies recognize and compliment. But you are right, while being stuck in the mallcore catagory, mirrored lenses are cool and eye-catching.

>>18108855
These are sick as hell though

>>18108485
It's called an accident, retard. Have you ever shit your pants? Was it an accident, or did you do it on purpose like a based retard?

i just got a pair from Lacoste that i'm happy with.

Just saw these Salt frames in a movie on Netflix and now I'm obsessed with them

>>18108998
Unfortunately when you wear them there is a horrible gradient that is so distracting. They look cool if you can past the mallcore thing, but to actually look through them is so distracting. It's even worse because the top is cool green, and the bottom is warm brown, and it splits right in the middle, where your eyeline rests, so any movement of your head changes what you are looking at from warm to cool colors and back and forth. It's actually awful.

>>18108475
>>18095456
Is there anything similar to picrel but as sunglasses?
Like a hybrid of the Optic's oversized lenses and the classic Wayfarers frame curvature

rb5387 optics but polarized sunglasses.jpg

I have to buy knock offs, I'm functionally retarded when it comes to sunglasses. Lost a $300 pair off a Kayak. Crushed $150 pair sat on another. Just cant bring myself to spend more than $30.

>>18109744
Kaliyadi. How long they will last will depend how you treat them but they're decent.

>>18109439
a optican can put in whatever lenses you like in most glasses. with or without diopters for like max 50€ per lens.

Polycarbonate, trivex, CR39 or something else? <br>How do I know what is best and what should I go with?

>>18110747
Glass is the best, but it's heaviest. The rest are all varying levels of pretty good. Gotta do your research if you really care which brands proprietary plastic is more clear.

>>18110961
I think the consensus is poly is the "worst" and trivex and CR39 are better but each are good in different ways. One does something better than other but worse in other ways
I have glasses with trivex lenses and they don't have a single scratch after a year of owning them

>>18111000
Nylon lenses are great but not used very often unfortunately

>>18110747
>>18110961
>>18110965
i woud say there is only a difference between glass and plastic materials.
and for the plastics the thing that matters is the coating

poly nylon or cr39 would all scratch to shit if left un coated. but they are never sold without a coating. and i have a feeling that even the cheap coatings have evolved quite a lot in the last 10 years or so.

the key to never having scratches is only cleaning the glasses with soap under the tab or in a ultra sonic cleaner.
T. 2yo poly glasses have no scraches thanks to my 15$ US-cleaner

btw at work i have prescription safety glases cr39 i even use to cutt and grind steel or drill in concrete and they have no scratches. Glass being super scratch resistant would get burn marks from angle grinding ( steel sparks tend fuse with glass or ceramics)

>>18095456
I probably need some underpants too or I'm gonna get arrested

im an incel but aviators make me look like a chad

>>18103437
>You just won't buy something a Chinese person touched because you're racist
Not him but yes, and also because it's almost certainly shit.

>>18100198
I got two pairs of yellow aviators, one with thick black rims and one with thin metal ones, shit's based as fuck

>>18113865
He's right, why would you buy chinaslop

>really nice brands cost 500+ just for frames, lenses are 500 too
>brands like RayBan cost 200
Meanwhile
>Warby Parker, EyeBuyDirect, Zenni, etc cost 20-90
Literally why the FUCK are glasses so expensive when it's obvious they can be made cheap

>>18114405
The price is right for the shitty glasses because you're paying little for a shitty product. On the other hand, you're paying far more than the cost to produce the good glasses because they have demand that warrants them. They may be overpriced for their practical value, but you actually are getting something good. (This is assuming you are actually getting the good ones and not the brand name shit that sells based off of name alone.)

Thoughts on Masunaga and Philippe Starck? I have to buy glasses as an adult for the first time and need something that will last a long time and work well in the office (academia) as well as in my free time. Someone recommended a shop in my city and Masunaga is the only Japanese brand they have. For some reason, that makes me trust the brand more, craftsmanship and all that.

All my raybans feels like trash they just have a trash vibe now I can't shake it they are just trash. My nicest pair I have to keep tightening a hinge scerw. can't believe I bought so much mall trash

I'd only buy those meta wayfarers because they have a camera for creepshotting but theyhave a stupid light on them.

Reddit told me to lookup seregeti, etna barcelona, r-something enginering, american whatever... serengeti are on amazon at up to 1/3 price sounds too good to be true

>>18098067
My carreras have been to hell and back and barely have a scratch.

They are a safe bet on most head shapes, I rarely buy sunnies online but was pleased with the fit and quality

for under $200 USD you'd be crazy not to buy a pair

>>18115398
i dunno man, my original wayfarers are amazing, i've had them for almost a decade
the new wayfarers feel cheap in comparison

How would you know? You've never owned any nice ones before

>>18116508
Mazzucchelli is not making RayBan's acetate

>>18115398
i'm so glad i bought ray bans before the brand degraded.
sounds like there's literally NO OTHER MANUFACTURER ON PLANET EARTH other than maui jim who can make sunglasses with tolerances good enough to do a half decent folding pair.
guess i already have the absolute end game pinaccle of sunglasses based on the degradation in quality over all in the market over the last 2 decades. just regret not buying a second pair in black.

>>18116730
There are still plenty of brands making amazing quality sunglasses with top notch materials. The thing is that with Bidenflation and the current global economy, they cost 500-1000 dollars now instead of 200 like they used to

>>18109646
i used to be that guy
get the folding maui jims and a microfiber bag you'll stop losing/breaking sunglasses

>>18116732
>There are still plenty of brands making amazing quality sunglasses with top notch materials
i don't think that's true
what brands make good folding sunglasses right now?
maui jim and who else?
i can spend up to maybe 3000 dollars.

>>18109646
It looks nerdy as hell but if you're gonna be doing kayaking or something like that with nice sunglasses, wouldn't you wear something like pic?

>>18116738
Do they absolutely have to be folding? Is it a deal breaker if they're not?
Seems like you're several limiting yourself that way

>>18116740
>Do they absolutely have to be folding? Is it a deal breaker if they're not?
yes. i want sunglasses that are comparable in quality and function to my ray bans. not something worse. i can double my budget if need be. who can i buy sunglasses from that are at least as good as my ray bans? money is no object.

>>18116810
No one has ever been able to say why they're bad beyond them hurting their feelings

>>18116811
Poor construction on most, Had the lenses fall out on a fair few, arms get loose quickly.

>>18116745
Get Persols you fucking retard

Yes because I'm a sperg with sunnys, loose them but thats probably because I go outdoors alot.

2 Pairs Italians
1 Pair Ray Bans
1 Pair Oakley (knock off)
2x Generic Australian pairs

At the rate I break them I'll be down to 2 pairs within 2-3 years lol. Probably buy a metal frame hiking or military grade next time.

>>18095456
Too much frame, clunky, cheap, unrefined. A design for poors.

>>18117226
Never understood how people break their nice things

>>18114511
I loved my Masunagas but they eventually broke, the frames were relatively thin and my stuff gets really abused.

Anyone owned Oliver Peoples? <br>I'm pretty much set as far as my sunglasses collection goes but I'd like a pair of Persols and Oliver Peoples, but those would also be the most expensive of collection if I bought them

>>18117057
i've been asking about them on here. everyone who replies saying they own them says the tolerances on the hinges is poor and the quality over all is poor.
>retard
i'm not the one who can't come up with a sunglasses rec on a $6000 budget...
maybe you were
WRONG?

>>18095456
thoughts on wearing these as prescription glasses?

>>18117896
too chunky and thick for me personally, but loads of people do it. they sell optical versions

>>18117914
almost all of those brands are "designer" trash that anyone that knows better would avoid. pretty much anything on the right of the image is trash anyway
i don't like seeing what they've done to rayban and oakley. persol and oliver peoples being owned by them sucks though
the worst thing about them though is that they control the insurance

Going to Italy in October and need some shades.

Can anyone ID these or know of similar type glasses?

>>18117527
what frame is in the pic? looks good and i need those

>>18095456

Hey does anyone know of a good, fashionable hard case for these? The one that comes with them is soft and I’m paranoid about them being crushed in my pocket.

>>18118472
Not sure, sorry. I got them in 2019 at Lunettes in Berlin and didn't record the model. Couldn't find them on the Masunaga site either.

>>18117914
My Matsudas aren't associated with Luxottica. They are also peak quality. Perhaps there's a correlation? Try looking for better brands, and you'll see it's not actually a monopoly.

>>18119485
Matsuda makes some of the ugliest glasses of all time

>>18102802
Polarised prism lenses in the bright orange is where it's at. Colours are so beautiful and vivid it literally looks like you're tripping. Literally cannot get a better pair of lenses on sunglasses imo

>>18119970
Any models with those lenses?
I have the Holbrooks in blue but I'd get another pair

>>18119970
I tried this specific oakley configuration and damn is this anon correct, colors pop without actually hurting your eyes, there was barely any shadowy tint that it felt like I was wearing glasses again.
Shame the only model available was ugly as fuck, it did sit snugly on my face so that's something to its favor.

the thing with oakley is the lenses are amazing and the technology is really cool. but the frames are just cheap nylon junk
i would gladly pay more for their lense technology, but the frames not matching that quality for the price is disappointing

what do you bros think of the sunglasses charlie hunman wears in sons of anarchy? was thinking of picking up a pair and they're cheap

>>18102802
>>18119970

Since most Oakley sunglasses are ugly as sin, but their lenses are some of the best, which model would be the best to get if I don't want to look like a clown?

>>18109710
Have you tried not being poor?

>>18119959
Well, I can understand why you would be worried about a Luxottica monopoly if you can't see the aesthetic value or quality in other brands. Hopefully you can grow to appreciate them more, and realize that a monopoly on garbage isn't really a monopoly.

>>18120141
Too small. Gives off 2000s vibes

I wore my Wayfarers today after not touching them for a long time because I have other sunglasses and they just feel good. They really are almost the perfect frames

>>18120357
Good thing modern fashion is just 2000s fashion

>>18120233

Prizm lenses enhance color and contrast and make things more vivid and crisp, combined with polarized lenses it's literally like seeing the world in HD. It's something you just gotta try in person to fully understand
Sucks Oakley puts so much research and development into their lenses while their frames are usually pretty cheap

for me its ray bans' elliot. they are comfier than wayfarer's and imo look better

>>18123029
>>18122989

Is there a reason why it wouldn't be? Can't I bring it to an eye doctor/eyeglass store and they'll ship it to their guy who can then cut them to shape?

>>18095456
I love the original ones and they look good on me but the temple is too short so the part that normally goes behind the ear is comically too close.
the "new classic wayfarers" don't have this issue but they look worse

>>18122349
Temu shit glasses that don’t protect your dilated pupils from UV rays are a great way to damage your eyes

>>18123187
The New Wayfarer Classics were RayBan's response to the 2000s trend of narrow wraparound sunglasses that were trendy at the time as Original Wayfarers weren't seen as "cool" and weren't selling. But now they look dated

>>18095458
do they still make these in tortoise shell but with polarized lenses? i can't find them anywhere and even when you try to customize them on the rayban website it doesn't let you add polarized lenses. i used to have a pair but lost them in the ocean

I bought a pair of clubmasters when I was 20 and I haven't needed anything else since.

>>18123043
Does it get compliments though

Does anyone else feel like they’ve outgrown Wayfarers? Growing up in the mid-late 2000s at arguably the peak of Wayfarer style sunglasses has left me with a rally negative perception of them. I can’t help but associate them with tackiness and immaturity whenever I see them even if they’re simple all black wayfarers.

>>18124024
i understand what you mean. didn't help that every school, company, team, etc. had cheap wayfarer knockoffs made of cheap plastic they'd give out as prizes or for free
wayfarers were my entry into nice sunglasses but i think i've moved past them as well. my next pair will be persols

Retard. Holy shit this is genuinely the most retarded thing I've read here in years

>>18124502
How much money would you be willing to bet that you could stare at the sun for an hour while wearing contacts and suffer no damage from UV exposure? I would be willing to test this.

>>18124575
oh we got a brainlet here.
> and suffer no damage from UV exposure?
Its a retarded bet but strictly going by what you wrote i would win, since they indeed block all uv light.
Its not only uv that fucks your eyes and skin. Infrared too is dangerous since it penetrades deeper into tissue and causes burns (real burns, proteins getting cooked).
Going to a stronger emission source. the Dark filter on a welding mask does nothing in protecting you from uv, that shit gets filtered by the translucent polycarbonat window. the dark tint ist strictly for the IR emssion from the glowing metal, hence they stay dark for a second or two longer than the ark

>>18095456
Those aren’t mirrored aviators

buying ever overpriced whitoid made garbage over made in japan lmao

>>18125399
lol, stay retarded i guess
do you know why ant get a sunburn through a window? despite being transparent it absorbs most of the uv and all of the ir radiation

>>18125452
It's all relative
My eyeglasses are from Salt, made in Japan of acetate folded 1000x
Hinges are cheap shit though

>>18125452
>>18125478
Yeah, I exclusively buy made from Japan, but not all Japanese stuff is good. You still have to inspect it and test the quality.

>>18125452
what sunglasses brands are made in Japan? pics of popular models would be nice too

Got a pair of Matsuda round sunglasses. I've always liked round ones and the craftsmanship is definitely incredible, there's so many little fine details in the frame. Expensive but still came out cheaper than the cartiers I wanted to get originally.

>>18126125
Pretty much any high tier brand makes their stuff in Japan
The hierarchy is generally accepted as:
Japan > Italy = USA > China

Oliver Peoples makes their stuff in Japan and Italy but the general consensus is the Japanese stuff is their best. Matsuda Is Japanese, Masanuga, Salt, Jacques Marie Mage, etc. are all either Japanese companies or made in Japan

Italian made has brands like Persol, certain Ray Bans, TBD Eyewear, most Oliver Peoples. Lots to list here

USA made has Maui Jims (I think made in Italy/Japan though), American Optical, Randolph, Roka and many others

Then there are brands made in China but generally considered still good like Moscot

>>18098067
>>18098153
>>18098680

I have a pair of Carreras, and the quality is pretty shit. They definitely feel flimsy and plasticky. They were cheap though so it's whatever... But yeah the quality is definitely noticeably worse.

>>18126171
what about Eyevan, Ayame, Julius Tart Optical, Yellows plus, Rigards, Yuichi Toyama, Nackymade, Kaneko optical,Miga Eyewear, and other boutique artisanal brand i am forgetting right now, Japanese made eyewear brand mogs the shit out of other nation's independent/luxury eyewear brand

>>18127363
I can't remember every brand under the sun
Half that shit you can't get outside of Japan anyway, good luck finding a seller

>>18127705
i don't understand how these would even work

>>18117684
I have two pairs of the 649 model, they are good quality, no issues with the hinges or finish. I tried on a pair of 714s in-store and they also felt solid. However, they are not perfect. It sounds like you want the Rolex of sunglasses, normally I would recommend JMM, but they don't have a folding model. If you can manage to find one, a NOS of pre-Luxottica Persols or B&L Ray Bans would be your next best option.

Anybody know what type of glass frame is this? Panto? Arnel? Wellington?

>>18096069
the son of the Oliver Peoples guy started his own brand which is /tips/-approved and has some locations in LA/NYC.

Retarded and wrong image. Women won't make moves on you sponteneously unless you are 9/10+ or they watch you being socially successful.

>>18109433
The thoughts of rough ogres do not concern me.

This is kinda true but it's also about whether you look friendly and approachable. If you're a good looking guy but look moody and intimidating women won't make the first move.

>>18111900
correct most girls do not approach first. They will want a handsome guy to approach them especially if they are intimidating by the dudes looks

Reminder that you should be gaslighting normies, always pretend like you put very low effort into your looks.

>>18114410
Well, if you think the men hitting on you are hot, I'd have to say you're probably homosexual.

>>18114410

>>you do skincare? Lol that’s kinda gay dude
>How do you respond without sounding mad?

I've had similar comments by a bitch at work.
I say that my dermatologist prescribed me this skincare and that my complexion is related to my mixed background. I tell them that their comments are both medically intrusive and racist and that i will make sure that it will be sanctioned.
That ugly middle age bitch was put in her place quickly.

>>18109437
true, and skincare is an expression of narcissism and inferiority complex

>>18109982
The lighter the complexion of your skin the more important it is for you to wear sunscreen when you are outside. This is definitely not a meme. Using some moisturizer can help too, but I don't think you need to use it everyday. If you use moisturizer too frequently you run the risk that your body adjusts and stops producing it's own natural oils in sufficient quantities similar to what happens to the lips of people who use lip balm too much.

all ive noticed is a typical bar soap will make my skin dry. But not all bar soap? in my totally retarded opinion ive never seen a difference. Heck when i simply wiped my face every day with a cloth and water my skin looked great lol. but supposedly your skin has a "moisture barrier" and you dont want to like scrub it away or something. Seems like the favourite cleaners are like cetaphil or something really clinical and plain

the jews? idk probably some false sense of being above the rest while knowing full well that nobody fucking likes them and that there was a reason or plenty of reasons that one painter wanted them all dead. just like gypsies and any other leech

if you're waiting for women to approach you - you have internalized a female mindset. you will never make it unless you adopt a masculine mindset and express it as a masculine behaviour.

ie. approaching women if you like them and making a move.


>t shirt under polo shirt
do a*******s really?

He's literally the sexiest guy ever, oh the clothes, yes sure whatever

I'm still amazed that a guy like that could exist and did exist and did what he did and looked the way he did. Anyone knows what I mean?

>>18111743
T-shirts are supposed to be undershirts to begin with. Unless you're wearing a cotton polo, most polos will make you stink like a cheap whore if you don't wear an undershirt, because they're made of plastic. And even if he is wearing a cotton polo, wearing an undershirt is always good, because it will not only absorb sweat, but also make your shirt drape nicely on your body and not make let it stick to your skin everywhere.

>>18111791
>doesn't want shit sticking to the skin
>wears cotton which absorbs sweat and sticks to the skin

>>18111791
>Unless you're wearing a cotton polo, most polos will make you stink like a cheap whore
I have literally never owned a non-cotton polo in my life, what planet are you people from

>>18111795
Have you /fa/gs never worn an undershirt? The purpose of an under shirt is precisely that, to stick to your skin, in order to immediately absorb sweat, distribute it across its fabric, and let it evaporate quickly before it even gets wet enough for the sweat seep into your shirt. It increases the surface area of evaporation. Without an undershirt, your sweat will just stay on your skin, pool around in spots and get absorbed by the shirt, giving you disgusting sweat patch and even stinking it up.

>>18111791
that's why v-necks exist fucktard

Thats actually a very pleasing shade for a polo shirt. He pulled it off.

>>18111781
He is super homosexual. So it makes sense.

>>18111735
what was he so handsome for? how did this happen?

>>18111791
>Unless you're wearing a cotton polo
Uh, yeah chances are you are going to be wearing a cotton polo. Even generic store brand Walmart polos retail for $14 Canadian. How badly did you fuck up your life that you have to resort to wearing sub-walmart clothing? Where would you even find such a category of merchandise? Clearance rack at a Chinese convenience store in the worst ghetto in the universe? Just thrift store shop at that point, bro. Or are you talking about those ugly “cooling tech fabric” polos that boomers wear to go golfing? Kind of defeats the purpose if you are wearing TWO FUCKING SHIRTS. There will be far less sweat to absorb if you are not layering up in the hottest summer weather of the year, dumbass.
>also make your shirt drape nicely on your body and not make let it stick to your skin everywhere.
Again, HAHAHA.

>>18111817
About the fabric typical polos are made of:
>The breathability of the pique fabric is one of its key benefits. The unusual weave of the fabric provides for consistent air circulation, keeping you cool throughout the hot summer days. This is especially beneficial for those who tend to sweat a bit more, since the fabric's structure helps dissipate moisture, making perspiration less noticeable on your clothing.

What’s going on with that “ ‘47” yanks cap. He bought an artificially pre-worn hat? He must’ve really been rolling in the dough here if he could pay for pre-weathered garmies instead of taking the long route and wearing them out himself the organic way. What this hat also the same styled hat that the Yankees would’ve worn in 1947? Construction looks a little different than your usual mordern cap.

>>18114441
>Kind of defeats the purpose if you are wearing TWO FUCKING SHIRTS. There will be far less sweat to absorb if you are not layering up in the hottest summer weather of the year
Clearly you faggots have never worn an undershirt. Fucking retard, the entire point of an undershirt is to not let your sweat reach your actual shirt. And a typical undershirt isn't made of a thick fabric like a regular t-shirt. The fabric of an undershirt is almost like a cotton handkerchief's cloth, because it needs to be thin in order for your sweat to evaporate easily. And since it hugs your skin snugly almost everywhere, it absorbs the sweat and distributes it across the entire fabric. So there's no pooling and no chance of the sweat seeping into your actual shirt. It just evaporates or stays in the fabric. Even during the hottest days it never gets wet enough for the sweat to seep into your actual shirt on the outside.

As for the plastic polos, you're retard if you think polyester and polyester blend polos don't exist. Most normalfags don't care about fabirc. They buy based on the design and price. Plenty of polos sold have anywhere from 20-65% polyester in it, which a lot of people wear without realizing it.

>>18111735
A very well put together Old Money fit

>>18114788
I’ve worn undershirts under long sleeved button up shirts of course, but wearing an undershirt under a polo is counterproductive, especially in hot weather. Do you wear long underwear under your pants in the summer too to make sure your pants “drape nicely on your body and not let it stick to your skin” and “absorb sweat, distribute it across its fabric” (sweat caused by wearing long underwear in July lol).

>>18114908

Polos made for golf are usually some artificial moisture wicking material, a lot of the older guys I worked with pretty much exclusively wore these.

>>18111735
He looks like every gay twink at Fire Island in the summer

what kind of cap is suitable for thr classic blue jeans white t shirt? I like moot's cap

>>18118510
any baseball cap that isnt edgy or flat

>>18111791
>because they're made of plastic
I dunno, nigger, whenever I'm out getting sweaty in a cotton tshirt, the fuckloads of absorbed fermented moisture feels and smells absolutely grim. The point of sweat is to cool you down and evaporate, so if it gets absorbed into fabric before it can perform that function, your body will produce even more of it. Like niggers wearing puffer jackets and hats/hoods on public transport in the middle of summer, sweating and stinking like mad - oftentimes they'll have a towel to wipe their sweat, dumb apes. But yeah, the only problem with synthetic fabrics is they're not breathable, unless the fabric is some kind of a mesh. I don't see the point in absorbent clothing and basically don't buy anything containing cotton or viscose anymore, except for towels and bedsheets.

>>18111781

I never started wearing skinny jeans. Straight cut just looks skinny on me because I don't fucking skip leg day.

>>18081716
because it is if you're white and not ugly. Dude probably slays prime pussy

>>18081669
What the hell were Millennials thinking? Skinny jeans were a mistake.

No, but maybe? I wear jeans similar to the N&F Weird Guy cut, its not holding me tight but its fairly form fitting

>>18081771

He looked better with the skinny jeans desu

i like how in the skinny jeans shot he's showing off his 10s era sleeve tattoos, and then in the baggy cargo shots he's showing off his 20s era scribble tattoos. hopefully he's got some space on his legs for whatever fad-tat style comes next.

but for real, how do i escape wearing skinny jeans... do i even have to?<br>i tried wearing a pair of straight cut jeans but i felt so ridiculous in them. i actually like the look of skinny jeans + big jacket, but it's what i've been wearing since a teen. it makes me feel childish as a result. but i dont want to buy into trends either.

>>18086572
literally just wear bigger pants and get used to it. don't go overboard just find something straight with more room. it's always an adjustment at first but once you wrap your head around it you'll never look back. skinny jeans look retarded but also zoomers in huge pants look especially retarded. just try and dress like an adult

I feel ridiculous in anything larger than a tapered fit jean. I feel like it makes you look shorter desu

>>18081669
you have to be a real faggot to the core to wear skinny jean in the first place. Even at 14 when you are ignorant about fashion

Umm no sweetie, fashion doesn’t need to cater TO YOU.
Also the problem you’re talking about is solved by a high waist, which is what most loose pants have.

Baggy clothes were invented by obese dysgenic zoomers so they can even the playing field

If you are actually fit, then skin y jeans + skinny polo shirt will make any girl fal in love with you

>>18089062
Niggers were doing back in the late 80s. Zoomers didn't invent shit.

>>18081701
lmao
>>18081782
only owned one pair of weird guys. liked the fit until i washed them then they because skinny jeans. never wore them again
>>18081798
he looked better with the short hair. afterwards he looked like a wigger

>>18084622
those aren't even straight fit, they're relaxed or giant fit. not a fan

lol
>>18086572
what kind of straight cut were you wearing? sometimes it can take a little getting used to. i hemmed and hawed over a pair of club monaco straight jeans then finally got them. my favorite fitting pair of jeans now. just make sure you're getting the right size and that it's not a real baggy straight. can also look for slim straight or tapered jeans. no need to get skinny

>>18090412
No way. They just look like fat builders now

>>18081669
why did this nigga tuck his shirt into his underwear

>>18081669
yes a long time ago, but these tattoos are wigger shit

>>18081669
From fag to dork, good job zoomie

>>18090412
They look like fat divorced dads
Baggy clothes are fucking lame

You know what actually makes you look short? Being short. And no amount of coping with silly pants can fix that.

>>18087996
Doesn't matter if you're 6' or taller

>>18091136
They look like shit in the first photos.
Tucked in shirt in to what looks like joggers, rips in the knees. The only one who looks okay is on the far right who is wearing a loose shirt to balance things out.

>>18081669
I'm in my late 30s and I never started, tried them on a few times and felt absolutely ridiculous. I've been wearing straights or slim straights for 20 years and I see no reason to change.

>>18081669
Went from attractive man to fashion victim/faggot lol.

>>18081669
These all look… bad
He’s probably more ‘fashionable’ than me, but I look 1000x better
He comes across in every fit as if he’s a complete outsider and saw some ‘cool people’ on TikTok and is doing his best to recreate it. Like he’s not part of the movement he’s just hopelessly trying to latch on. Even without the ‘skinny jean’ intro this is what his vibe conveys— Complete try hard loser. Pathetic.

>>18091125
This was alright. Guy in the right is pretty suave.
>>18090412
Why the fuck do they all look like niggers now?

>>18091369
They went from dressing like cunts to dressing like niggers

>>18092379
The classic nigger outfit of jeans and a t-shirt, right

>>18092381
>baggy, I’ll-fitting clothing
>palm angels
This isn’t white people clothes

>>18088228
Person of Virtue
its a new buzzword bluechecks and other insane people are trying to force into reality just like calling niggers POC

>>18092382
They're not baggy enough to be considered gansta rap clothes, can guarantee the pants fit on the 2024 pic would be considered less out of place over the last 100 years of fashion. And skin-tight jeggings aren't 'well fitting' lmao. No comment on palm angels since they're just deanos who have been told how to dress by Shein or whatever.

>>18086224
That’s not what POV means but kek

>>18090412
men just look like shit, it doesnt matter what they wear, unless you're going full classy gentleman in a suit theres no point, they all look so stupid

>>18086230
Alphas will wear skinny jeans and laugh at zoomers and their trashbag looking baggy pants.
Fashion is cyclical and every generation tries so hard to differentiate themselves from the inmedialely previous.

>>18092607
Fashion do run in trends and cycle.
Some of them are looked back on and laughed at(in this case skinny jeans)

>>18092660
Nah. Slim fitting clothing that show off your build will always be in style. That's why alphas in skinny jeans are fucking all the zoomer bitches.

>>18081669
I'm generally in support of the movement away from skinny fit pants and toward wide leg, but this guy didn't look that bad in skinny jeans. He could continue to pull it off if he wanted to.

>>18081669
Not gonna lie pretty much all of those pants looked bad on him except the jeans with the brown belt and wifebeater on. This man needs to try a new style or is just simply not made to wear pants.
>Did you stop wearing skinny jeans yet /fa/?
Nope I still wear them on occassion cause I don't have that many pairs of pants and they're still good to use. Though I will admit I have one pair thats like a decade old and recently developed a little hole in the gooch area :T

wore skinny jeans in high school
wore skinny jeans in college
wore skinny jeans in my 20s
still wearing skinny jeans at 35

I fucking hate zoomers and their "fashion" so much. fucking heroin addict looking fags

>>18086486
You're actually a shut in incel rightoid LARPing dude. Being feminine as a guy is like the #1 to get attention from zoomie females

>>18081669
never wore them because I'm not a faggot

>>18086529
man i've been doing that for like 10 years sucks zoomers made it gay now

>>18093230
aging millenial upset at experiencing his first culture shift COPE

social atomization and the destruction of the community and nuclear family have made people become tribal over the fit of their pants. i hate you all.

>>18081768
Similar. My legs are naturally huge. Slim looks skin tight on me so I always buy relaxed or straight. Loose looks fucking retarded on guys over 32.

POV you wear skinnyish jeans, but then put them inside your cowboy boots so no one can see. I wear my boots like this, so these skinnier jeans feel less weighty in the inside of my boots. I wear these everyday btw, and I live in Arizona and wear a felt hat too.

>>18081669
Every time someone “finally ditches skinny jeans” it turns out to be some dork like this who wore skinny jeans that were too skinny and now he went too far in the other direction instead of just wearing well-fitting pants all along.

>>18081669
He may have stopped wearing skinny jeans, but he could never stop being a faggot.

>>18086230
And it already happened once. It's is a cycle. The 90's and early 2000's were a laughingstock not too long ago before the zoomies picked it up in an effort to be different (without doing anything new).

>>18081669
He made the right decision, but if you're not a 5'2" liftlet then skinny jeans are fine.

>>18086230
people thought that in the 90s-2000s, then they came back into style.
these things are cyclical, use your brainpower.

>>18091187
Almost certainly some worthless Nixon watch in painted-yellow. It also could be a ‘80s Timex or Casio quartz. It doesn’t look like anything worth more than $50, you can tell from the mismatched grandpa stretchy bracelet.

>>18081669
Never wore them to begin with, because I'm a man, not some woman or a trannyfaggot. I need my massive balls and Johnson to have ample room to breathe and move around in. All my life I have always comfymaxxed. A size bigger was always my default fitting for shirts, and straight fit and relaxed fits for pants. So, I don't even need to buy new clothes to fit in with zoomers and their baggy trend (not like I want to).

I get baggy cargo pants like pic rel but >>18092389 is kind of a goal I've had in mind too.

>>18081669
god damn this dude is trying so hard. I bet he fornicates a lot though so good for him.

>>18090249
this are ugly almost like skinny

>>18081669
What’s looser than Carharrt relaxed fit single knee pants? I’ve got a pair that fit in the waist but they’re very tight in the legs

>>18088794
lol, this nigga believes in the rule of thirds, top kek

>>18081669
How is this thread still alive lmao I made this as a joke

>>18081669
Nope, I have not. Zoomers' obsession with baggy strikes me as taste-deficient.

my jeans just shrinked in the wash i didn't make a choice

No because boots only look good with skinny jeans

>>18081669
He looks extremely homosexual like most males in NYC

anyone have some good inspo for buying new jeans?

/fit/ bro

How lean do you need to be for skinny pants to not make you look like a frog?

>>18100589
The fucking LEGS on 4th from the left. In what world does he think that looks good?

4th from right is the only decent fit. Also, lol @ the black sun sperg. What I imagine spergs from /pol/ still look like.

You're a newfag which you can be forgiven for. But how the fuck do you not question any of the things that are happening in that image?

>>18081669
I think I remember hearing somewhere that BMXer Mike Aitken started the whole skinny jeans trend. Pic related.
Anyway I wore the shit out of them in the early to mid-2000s.
Before that it was obviously baggy jeans, and it blows my mind that they came back in such a big way today.

>>18081669
skinny jeans are coming back exactly because of guys like op

>>18109526
I’d have to disagree. Corey Duffel is the pioneer that sparked the skinny jean wave of the 2ks. He was wearing them as early as the year 2000 and he ended becoming one of the most recognizable guys in skateboarding by the mid 2000s. https://youtu.be/_HBuPmZk2HI?si=cmS<wbr>KCon3a2KuQ6zk
Mainstream fashion always copies skateboard culture and BMX is largely irrelevant to be brutally honest

>>18109567
That looks more like a generic 70s punk aesthetic though

>>18109569
And? Go back to that era of skateboarding and you’ll see that he was one of the only guys wearing skinnies while everyone else was still wearing baggy cargos and jeans. Then the Baker guys started wearing skinnies, dropped Baker 3 in 2004, and it blew up everywhere. That’s when boys were going in to girls clothing sections to get the skinniest jeans possible.

>>18109590
>he was one of the only guys wearing skinnies
brother, there were always 70s punk holdouts all over the place at that time.
But that's not really the skinny jeans aesthetic.

>>18109609
We're talking about sparking TRENDS. It doesn't matter if his style was derivative it matters that he was the only one doing it in the space at the time. Do you think the baggy jean TREND among zoomers right now was born from a place of originality? No, it was popularized by skaters then adopted by zoomers the same why skinny jeans were popularized by skaters and adopted by zoomers.

>>18109626
>the same why skinny jeans were popularized by skaters and adopted by zoomers.
*way
*by millennials

>>18109626
>he was the only one
No he wasn't. There were always people doing the heroin chic punk thing; pic is 1996 for instance.

>it in the space
What space?

>>18109629
>What space?
Skateboarding. Skateboarding is youth culture. Youth culture influences fashion. Fashion influences mainstream culture. Mainstream culture influences mainstream fashion.
>There were always people doing the heroin chic punk thing; pic is 1996 for instance
Are you saying that a preexisting style can't become popularized again? Do you understand how popularization works?

>>18109629
i was going to mention Trainspotting then I scrolled down and saw your post
im not sure it's the best example though since Trainspotting was set in the 80s, when skinny jeans were also popular

>>18109629
>reach
thats reaching. those arent skinnies. skinnies are shit like what screamo kids used to wear like skin tight shit

>>18109643
>Skateboarding is youth culture.
I legit laughed out loud

>>18109663
>those arent skinnies.
I agree, that's not the "tight jeans" that the 2000s were known for, that's heroin chic just like this >>18109567

>>18109663
the wardrobe designer for trainspotting said those were womens jeans even when it was filmed in the late 90s skinny jeans for men were very rare

>>18109660
>Trainspotting was set in the 80s
No it wasn't.

>>18109685
>in the late 90s skinny jeans for men were very rare
Trainspotting is mid-90s

>>18109683
>I legit laughed out loud
yea laughing is easier than providing an intelligent rebuttal. by your metric, nothing can ever trend again because some person somewhere still wears out dated clothes? if post malone started wearing ten gallon hats and cowboy boots and then suddenly a generation of zoomers started wearing ten gallon hats and cowboy boots you wouldn't credit him for popularizing that style because other people already dress like cowboys?

>>18109701
"Skateboarding is youth culture" is the dumbest thing I'll read all day.
How's that for an "intelligent rebuttal"?

>>18109686
yes it was you mongoloid
they are literally altered jeans made to look like a skinny tapered 80s pair. your example is dogshit and no amount of desperately clinging onto it will change that

>>18109714
>yes it was
No, it wasn't.
The book was, but the film was specifically built around contemporary pop culture. The soundtrack was extremely modern and influential.
And the skinny fashion was perfectly in line with heroin chic, a 90s fashion trend based partly on punk.

>your example is dogshit
It's a perfect example of the 70s punk aesthetic persisting between the 70s and the early 2000s. Corey Duffel was in no way "the only one".

And that aesthetic is not the same as the skinny jeans aesthetic.

>>18109738
>scene kids
>skater bois
Please pick one.
Pic is what skaters looked like in the mid-2000s.

If you rocked up at the skatepark in skintights and scene hair in the mid-2000s I can guarantee you'd get laughed right back out again.

>>18109738
you wanna see mid 2000 skate look go look at baker 3. nothing like the image.

unless we're deliberately talking a niche group of emo kids who wanted to pose as skaters which is what your image looks like. even on the avril lavigne video no one looks like that.

>>18109738
you're wrong. everyone dressed like a skater boi when i was in high school. scene's earliest days were when i was in college. baker 3 was insanely influential. i don't even skate i was a goth/metalhead and i know exactly what he's talking about.

>>18109705
brother you know the only reason nikes are hyped and resell for thousands of dollars right now is because paul rodriguez wore them in a skate video yah?
that's why hypebeast culture ignored normal jordans and hyper focused on sb's in the early days.
i don't skate or wear nike and i know this... cmon zoomers...

>>18109909
Brother, Jordans were a massive hype around the time Paul Rodriguez was born.
Nobody in mainstream culture knows who the fuck that guy even is.

Did you have a stroke?

>>18109738
>pretending that emos were "skaters"
they were "rockers" if anything. they certainly didn't belong to the "don't brush your teeth huh huh" retard skater culture.
skater culture was associated with pop-punk, never emo or scene style.

>live in major city
>you can wear anything

 if you have a cool outfit together. no one is going to fucking say shit. it looks good.

 recently saw some kids dressed like 80s hair metal band. adidas high tops + skinny. they looked amazing

>>18110586
>>18110588
nobody lined up for sneakers back then especially not jordans and nothing resold over retail hahaha mazda zoom zoom!!
lol he doesn't even know what stores got the hyped releases.

>>18110731
this guy has got to be a troll. you're like 20 years old why even post lol.
why even bring up emo and scene that shit is like 10 years off from what we're talking about???

>>18110728
you're posting with authority about the origins of hypebeast shit but you don't even know what stores we got sneakers from........ hint all the releases went to local skate shops and non sb j's got you clowned back then.

do you even live in a major city? lol how would you even know? idgi how people post about things they have no clue about?

>>18110757
>superskinnies

lmao zoomie. I can speak with authority because I lived it.

>>18110754
>you're like 20 years old why even post lol.
dangerously obvious projection

>>18110810
name your city and the store you copped at back then
kek no you didnt

>>18110823
>believes that superskinnies came from "street wear"
lmao@u fool

>>18110838
i was talking about sneakers.
anyone who posts on here and thinks skinny jeans started in their lifetime is retarded that trend first took place right after ww2. and if you go outside the realm of jeans to before they existed skinny pants, much skinnier than even the girl jeans emos wore, have been a trend cycling on and off going back centuries.

>>18081669
if you can fit into modern skinny jeans as a male, you have the body of a female
zoomers are smaller across the board

>>18105353
>4th from right is the only decent fit
I love how the only "decent fit" is the guy who's attractive. It would look like the ugly, nerdshit that it is on any of the other guys.

>>18100589
I'm still waiting for the official pussy nigga 69 merch drop

>>18092607
No "alpha" ever wore skinny jeans, they were always for faggots

>>18110867
from experience skinnys came back with the Indie movement and 80's nostalgia in the late half of the 00s, flamboyancy wasn't taboo anymore and people were over ill-fitting baggy crap

>>18114350
You clearly never went to really expensive places and vip parties, it was full of roided up, tatted up, earring wearing, perfectled tanned bros wearing sexcore meme clothes, never seen without a hot girl. And yes that included skinny jeans that almost ripped on their legs. It is not as common as ten years ago, mostly because the current generation are ugly dysgenic freaks, even the rich ones, but you can still catch the old sexcore style from time time

>Nu-uh REAL men wear red wing moc toe ls to their web dev job and wear baggy cargo pants, and go home to their fat wife that doesnt fuck them

>>18114350
in the 2000's and 2010s you probably got zero bitches whatsoever if you wore straight cut or baggy pants. strictly associated with niggers (who weren't considered cool yet) cholos and poverty.
skinny jeans were a infinite pussy glitch for millenials.
you never heard of ian watkins?
warped tour?
really?
yeah there was also this culture of performative masculinity. if you wore skinny jeans other guys would call you a fag and girls would get dripping wet. just look at maddox and dick mastersen today in 2024 for examples of the kind of losers these guys were who didn't get the memo. maddox was like THE voice for your genre of male back then.

>>18081669
Yeah I still wear them, but they fit my body type well and I know how to use the rest of the outfit to balance the silhouette. They've been in and out of trend twice in my life and I'm not that old. Not really something I worry about

>>18115806
Even in the black world they were ascendant in those times. Kanye made it possible for black people to wear them in the late 2000s. If you ever look at a random group of chicago drill rappers in the late 2010s skinny cut was by far most common at that point.

I'm a millennial and I think zoomers fashion is based. Better than our swag era bullshit Chicago bulls jersey, supreme box logos, obey & diamond supply t shirts

Is "relaxed fit" considered baggy? It's the best of both worlds imo

Zoomers dressing like how I dressed in elementary school is crazy.

>>18109626
Skinny jeans came into popular culture during that "jerking" era
Forgot the song but it exploded overnight and suddenly every kid wanted to wear colored skinny jeans and vans.
Emo / skater kids were wearing skinny jeans before this but it was still niche at that time.

If you're 25-30 and had friends in school you should remember this
https://youtu.be/qv9VKKXwVxU

>>18118101
I'm the oldest a Zoomer can be and now fashion is what I wore in middle school

Is it regression to comply with modern fashion or acceptable nostalgia?

>>18118157
I like it, it gives me nostalgia. I'm glad that zoomers are into thrifting and vintage. Better than overpriced brand names and Chinese fast fashion garbage.
I kinda sell clothes and I'm glad they are happy to take the thrashed distressed stuff, sometimes they'll even pay a premium for the "sick fade".

Contrived gay ass. Funny the tattoos change style? Constantly flipping your hair and moving like youre in nsync is also absurd. I hope he gets killed by a pack of niggers

>>18100589
Did anyone ever save the original picture?

there's nothing wrong with skinny jeans. theres nothing wrong with baggy jeans. that guy has just dressed with what's in fashion at a time when you can tiktok yourself into acting like you're doing something of value

I started wearing a relax fit pair of jeans. I saw a photo of myself in them recently and they make me look straight up retarded. Can’t believe I fell for the bait. Straight fit for life.

Yes i stopped to wear skinny jeans.just because it isn’t fit for the current trend.and it’s not friendly for muscle guy.because it can shows your leg shape

>>18118090
>diamond supply
holy shit I completely forgot this brand existed

anonymous

>>18089062
Zoomers didn't invent anything, they just took 80s/90s styles and somehow made it even gayer.
