Is "masculine" fashion making a comeback? I keep seeing a lot of the following on the street and in collections and stores

>Short-cut jackets, denim, leather and bomber jackets everywhere
>more earth tones, grey, black, etc
>stronger, more utilitarian fabrics
>looser cuts, higher-waists on pants
>tucked-in shirts
>motorcycle pants, trucker jackets
>everything is either frayed, worn, or has holes
>everything looks generally more "rugged"

it looks like the meme of pastel-colored slim-fit metrosexual stuff has ended. Discuss.

Tense-core.

Every article of clothing is calculated with scientific precision to be "casual." Rather than indicating a desire to actually be casual, the sheer calculation required indicates a terror of even resembling an authority figure, a desire to appease and reassure others that he is indeed one of the "guys," like the ones his helicopter mother didn't let him play with in childhood.

The fit is as tight as possible without being skin-tight, despite the fact that practical outdoor clothing needs a certain amount of give.

The "rugged" clothes are spotlessly clean. Only the jeans are unwashed, and that is not because they are work clothes; they are left unwashed to preserve the dark navy colour.

This is the uniform of a middle class man going to great lengths to appear like an everyman, while still dressing in a way that proves his prissy nature. This is the uniform of self-abasing cuckery.

I think it's more a case of regular guys getting into fashion.

Yesterday they'd wear cargo shorts and a cheap puma/nike t-shirt, now they browse MFA and self-improvement forums and find a style that is basically ripping of "masculine" celebrity icons like Daniel Craig, Ryan Gosling or James Dean.

It's simply a side-effect of the internet allowing people to find information regarding fashion much easier than before, leading to regular people who otherwise have little to no interest in more artsy subjects like design etc to dress well.

So in a sense, people who were into fashion yesterday are going to keep dressing in meme shit such as techwear etc or the next flavour of the month just as much as they did before, and regular guys who previously had no idea what to dress like no dress like your pic related, OP.

>it looks like the meme of pastel-colored slim-fit metrosexual stuff has ended. Discuss.
No, like said, it's only because regular dudes like the people you find on MFA start getting into fashion because it's more readily available to read about guides online which makes it easier. If anything, the metrosexual meme shit is going to continue if not become even more common than before.

How long have you been browsing /fa/, anon? I'm pretty sure it's "making a comeback" because there's an influx of new users browsing /fa/ coming from places like /fit/ who are just here for self-improvement, not because of an interest in fashion.

I don't dress like the "androgynous pencil-dicks" you're referring to btw, I'm just stating those kind of people aren't suddenly changing back towards "masculine" fashion, it's just a bunch of meme self improvement redditors who are shitting this place up with conventional men's fashion.


My personal reason for visiting /fa/ is to get an insight into current trends, not how you should totally buy this masculine bomber that'll make you look like a man with class. That shit is boring as fuck and I might as well visit /r/malefashionadvice for that stuff.

Newsflash, folks, the shit mentioned in the OP is pretty normal stuff that entered the mainstream a long, long time ago (for sensible reasons, it's comfortable and durable and has a nice look). Hasn't been the exclusive province of the working class, bikers, military guys (depending on the garment) since before most of you were born.

>What I don't understand is why this style of dress makes /fa/ sperg out so hard.

Not sure if you're referring to me who was the one who posted above you, but I'm not "sperging out" - there's nothing wrong about this look and frankly I dress more or less like this most of the time.

The thing that triggers me is that it's kinda useless to discuss this type of fashion on a fucking fashion board - these types of clothes are CONVENTIONAL in every sense and there's no need to discuss a look that is already established.

It's sort of like the /prep/ threads, I get that you wanna get into the preppy look, but there's no need to start a thread which is meant for the discussion of fashion when prep is already a fucking established look. Just Google it and look at some pictures of John F Kennedy lmao

I really loathe some of the "cores" /fa/ memes up like /terrorwave/ or sleazecore etc that every LARPing newfag wants to adopt, but hey, at least they're sort of new and innovative.

If I wanted to learn how to dress prep I wouldn't be going to /fa/ anyways, it's not like anybody here actually comes from a preppy background and if you did you wouldn't need to browse the prep threads in order to learn how to dress that way.

>> No.13252441

>>13252419
Not an American, so I can't really tell you what's appropriate (in my opinion) for dressing a certain way.

Look dude, just dress the way you fucking want, but like I said here >>13252421 there's a point where it becomes sort of roleplaying, but most people usually dress the way they feel like they identify with the best.

Maybe I'm just assuming too much but I get the feeling that a lot of people on /fa/ are trying way too hard to find a "look", just buy clothes that you like and make the outfits come together, it's not that hard.

One thing you should take into account though is that different colours look good on different people, generally speaking stronger colours/contrasts work better on darker skin. There's a picture for that floating around somewhere online.

Personally, I dress very conventionally most of the time, a bit like OP's pic but with more layers and perhaps a bit more of an upper class-ish style. I do however wear experimental and trendy stuff as well, but it just doesn't work out wearing trendy and flashy stuff every single day.

A side note, but important to take into account, as cheesy as it may sound, is that fashion is an extension of yourself and serves to identify which social group you belong to. I usually quickly think about what I'll do during a day prior to picking my outfit, just like you dress up for a job interview you should dress the way you want people to perceive you. Clothes are one of the fastest way to identify and stereotype a person based simply on the way they dress. Keep that in mind.

That's also why I dislike stuff like terrorwave because people are essentially roleplaying, but sure, if you want to be perceived at best as a hooligan and as worst as a nazi or something go ahead.

Anyways, to answer your question in simple terms, just remember skin tone is important when buying clothes and that you have an advantage in a sense that you can buy clothes that people with paler skin can't pull off.

Stockholm, Sweden. It's sort of why I can't really give you exact advice on how you should dress because I'm a firm believer in that fashion should allow people to "identify" who you are. Like, if I'm going to a party where I don't know anybody that is in a more liberal/trendier area I'll dress a bit more trendy and relaxed, if I'm visiting a swedish seaside resort of most equivalent to WASP prep people in the US I'll just wear more conventional stuff.

Fashion and identity aside, there's not much you should take into account whilst dressing "rugged and masculine" as a black guy unless you want to be identified with your race. I mean, if you dress rugged and masculine as a black dude but feel limited because some types of clothes don't fit a black dude you'll just end up being stereotyped. Dress like whatever group you feel comfortable with and identify with. There's really nothing else to take into account other than that certain colors look better on darker skin etc.

I definitely wasn't referring to you - more to posters like >>13248976 but not even him specifically, more just /fa/'s general attitude. Because I see posts like that every time this style (if you can even call it that) comes up. There are people who I swear have notifications set up so they can post soy boy memes whenever denim (one of the most unremarkable materials there is) is mentioned.

I completely agree that this is a very normal look and I wouldn't judge you or anyone for finding it a bit uninspiring on a fashion forum (although I think it has a place - e.g. bomber jackets may not be particularly unusual but people who like them can have interesting conversations about brands, quality, etc). It's not the people who find this boring I question, it's the people who come into threads and post about how that stuff is "soy" or "bugman" or whatever tired meme we're using this week. And there's a lot of them.

Yeah, the reason I don't actually browse that many fashion forums is because there's a shit ton of posters stereotyping whatever shit is posted. Like you can't wear X because it's Y, etc. It's fucking fashion for Christ's sake, even if I'll probably never dress in avant garde Rick stuff or those other memecores at least it's interesting to read about and keeping an open mind to new looks/ideas.

It's fine to have opinion about various fashion items, myself I'm not very fond of bomber jackets since I think they're overhyped, it's just these low quality shitposts fucking up the forum and the worst part is that I bet the newfags here actually fall for it and allow themselves to be dressed by /fa/ based on memes and shitposters calling certain looks "soy-boy" or "reddit":

Like said I'm not very fond of "le rugged manly look" which I find is totally uninspiring just like prep threads but at least they're not shitposts.

Look dude, just dress the way you want to portray yourself as. Don't even take into consideration the fact that you're an Arab because then it's like you're shaping your style after your ethnicity. Just wear whatever you feel like portrays you as an individual, if you wanna distance yourself from Arabs specifically, in my experience at least, try to avoid gaudy and show-offy brands and adidas/sportswear.

Most people probably won't think about the fact that you're an arab if you don't talk with an accent and just dress the way other people dress.

That's what I want to do, but I don't know how to portray myself as a respectable member of the community because I don't know what that looks like to other people (besides maybe looking like a nerdy accountant or things like that).
Perhaps if I was rich I'd go full Pitti Uomo, but I'm not, so I'll have to look like a normal person.

>Don't even take into consideration the fact that you're an Arab because then it's like you're shaping your style after your ethnicity.
Is this bad?
A lot of people here in northern Italy don't like immigrants, and most think less of us than the native people at the very least (especially after the migrant crisis).
Looking like I'm not one of those guys that people dislike would result in a tangible improvement in my life.

Are you fucking serious anon? Do you honestly think that people will care if you dress less like an Arab and more like a regular person? Even native Euros look like trash when they dress like Arabs because it's an outfit affiliated with the lower class.

My dude, legit just start wearing more conventional men's fashion without being too gaudy/flashy (it's a sign of the newly rich; typical among arabs) without fading into this territory >>13249967

It's good that you think like this, you can't change what other people think so it's better to work on conforming instead of doing like a lot of second generation immigrants do which is to give the finger to European society and creating their own "style" just so they can tell everyone how much of a gangster minority they are. Sure, it's cool they have their own style but they're only shooting themselves in the leg by doing so.

LIke bruh, just wear a white shirt and some decent chinos with a suede bomber or something, it's not that fucking hard. I mean if you're really 110% trying distance yourself avoid anything street-wear related and ripped jeans etc

They won't consciously think anything, but subconsciously they'll register a bad impression because they'll associate me with the group that they look down on.
That's why I want to specifically make a good impression, to "counterbalance" my ethnicity (and bad facial features) so that the impression will be more like "he's one of the good ones" instead of "he's like every other arab".

Anyway, thanks for the advice. I'll keep it in mind.

Yeah, I'm very focused on integrating and the whole "when in Rome" mindset.
I really dislike that 2nd generation immigrant culture, and can't understand why even the locals are falling into it.
I mean, how can they not see how objectively worse it is?
It's like the American kids of slave owners wanting to leave their good life and upbringing to be like the slaves. Why would you do that?

Sadly this culture seems very common among the youth so I do in fact want to distance myself 110% from it. Both because I hate it myself and because of what people think of me.

>They won't consciously think anything, but subconsciously they'll register a bad impression because they'll associate me with the group that they look down on.

What I was referring to was the fact that you felt like you needed to dress better specifically because of your ethnicity - it's true that when a native Euro dresses "streetwear" he might be trendy, but when an Arab does it it gives people a subconscious impression that you're just one of those pesky minorities. What I meant was that you don't really need a guide specifically tailored for Arabs trying to fit in, legit just head over to Plebbit /r/malefashionadvice and dress in typical menswear. You probably have an idea of what Arabs tend to dress like, avoid that, and dress like the people you want to imitate. It's that simple.

>so that the impression will be more like "he's one of the good ones" instead of "he's like every other arab".

Yes, that's exactly what I mean, just dress like the native Euros do and you'll have no problem. If your goal is to make a good impression just dress well in classical menswear that doesn't look out of place in your area of residence. Like I said, dress like the person you want to be, but also strive to live up to your image.

It's just tribalism. If goobninja or lunarcore or any dominant /fa/ trend came into general fashion it would suffer the same fate. I can say this confidently, primarily because workwear used to be one of the pillars of /fa/'s taste a few years ago. Around that time is was hypebeast workwear gothninja in no particular order iirc, with techwear attempts mostly mocked and ignored. Nowadays it's techwear, 90's/00's revival, lunarcore and palewave. Maybe im wrong about a couple of those specifically, try not to get caught up in the details, because the message is very plain: /fa/ has its own taste made up of multiple fashion countercultures that happen to live on the same board.
