This video really shows what clothes can do for a dude. I’m not talking about the over the top geek to jock transformation either. It’s striking how much better these guys look in the streetwear inspired looks. If you don’t have the arms, or shoulders to show off in a tank top, you have no real reason to be wearing one. The lesson here is really to dress for you body type, and find a style that suits you well. Clothes don’t make the man, but they can certainly make him a man who is better presented to the world. 

Also, I’m not sure anyone has read this...ever, but I’m going to get back to being on it. I enjoy writing about this shit and I’ve realized I should just be doing it for that reason. So, my tone will probably change a bit, and bite a little less on that Four Pins’ voice. Might change the name and try and drop some weekly features too. Hoping to have it all ready when I get back from NY this weekend. 

Finally, I’m definitely surprised this is charting, but at the same time I have to admit it’s infectious. I’m on my way to being washed and I know it.

Beating Summer Clothes

Its (almost technically) officially summertime which means if you don’t already have a pair of light jean, you’d need a pair ASAP. Cop these from Acne and build a couple outfits to wear with them. Simple stuff, tees, minimal sneakers, a sweatshirt here and there, maybe a linen shirt if you’re feeling real good. Spend summer beating all of that stuff to shit, seriously have a good time doing that. The jean will end up looking perfect for the fall and for the next couple springs and summers. Sometimes your clothes just need to get beat to hell like Rocky before they can truly be on that next level, like Rocky.

True Friends Hate on Your Toms.

Yes these Stussy Livin’ x Moonstar shoes look a lot like Toms, but they’re from Stussy and kind of hard to cop. So, they’re like very very rare Toms. Which we know definitely makes them worth purchasing. These are pretty perfect for the beach, you don’t have to find the one pair of sandals that don’t look like shit and when you catch shit for wearing Toms you can drop some serious knowledge. If you don’t catch shit for wearing Toms, it might be time for a new squad.

What Do Loggers Wear?

It almost feels like we’re reaching peak saturation with the coach jacket. I don’t think it’ll ever completely fade, but it definitely comes in waves. Today it seems to be the third piece released by any streetwear start up.

It’s tees, sweatshirts, coach’s jacket and then they usually let it all sit on a web store for 2 years before either calling it quits or starting the process all over. Instead of getting caught in something associated with all that, show you’re better than it all and cop this Needles’ Logger Jacket. It’s essentially a long coach jacket, and as well know elongating thing is fucking ill, plus it’s in a perfect shade of olive. I’m 100% unsure of where the logger name comes from, I’ve always assumed they only wear flannel. This has been backed up by numerous commercials on Discovery and my one visit to Maine, where people really love choppin’ wood. This isn’t a brand brickin’ the name though, fam. Telling people your long coach jacket is actually a logger jacket will make you sound more rugged, and will completely trip them up as they try and figure out what exactly loggers really wear.

Learn Something and Make Others Feel Stupid for Not Knowing It.

This bomber from Our Legacy isn’t what I thought it would be when I clicked through to it, I mean the name says tie dye, yet this shit is obviously not the tie die you normally see.

This is a tie dye that almost certainly wouldn’t describe as tie die to anyone...until now. When you inevitably get asked about this incredible jacket, you will tell them that it’s tie dye, that yes tie dye can look like this, yes they’re foolish for not knowing and yes it cost about half your rent. That’s how you prove your better than other people, make them feel stupid for not knowing something you literally just learned hours before. Oh, and wearing really expensive clothes that they don’t own or understand.
