LOL. Asian dudes rock that 24/7 in Toronto. I think the hipster/sneakerhead gets me more looks from hipster chicks.
 

Tapout has to be the worst of all of them. That usually goes hand in hand with the rhinestone studded dress shirts. The minute I see that shit I usually think "900 SAT, shitty tribal tattoos, lives with mom."

Cosign. Ed Hardy is crappy in the vein of Tapout.

Completely agree. Hilarious article on Ed Hardy in GQ last month:

On top of all that, I think "fat, out of shape wannabe fighter."
 

Is Polo Ralph Lauren also considered juvenile and in the same vein as A&F by business professionals? I like PRL because it's less showy than even some high-end brands (like D&G, Versace, etc.), but is that a legit brand? Btw, we're talking Polo, not black/purple label.

I'd say RL is more legit because it's established itself overtime. That's not to say that there are d-bags out there who still bastardize the brand by popping collars and such.

Cheer up, Bateman. What's the matter? No shiatsu this morning?

How's that basement office in North Carolina treating Pierce & Pierce these days? Oh, forgot to mention I'm loving the new ATM locations, what did you guys spend your TARP on? And btw, how's all the new retail bankers gelling culture wise?

That PJ chip is throbbing bright red on your shoulder bro.

Today's Food for Thought: Who gives a shit what others think of your shop/group? e.g. PJ is a very solid MM player. The way things are going, having a banking job lined up, and a brand at that, is nothing to sneeze at. Anyone who tries to neg you because its not GS/MS/whatever-else-is-in-vogue is clearly covering up an insecurity.

 

Abercrombie is the high school channel they've developed, and at this point you should hate it. Glad to see you are thinking for yourself. They have RUEHL for a more "GAP" type feel, though I don't know anyone that wears it...
