/fa/ - Fashion

bump

No hoods. If you want a hood layer it over a hoodie, dont cut corners.

If you are gonna wear a leather jacket, be honest with yourself and decide if you are going to look like a colossal fucking autist/poser in it or not. If not, go ahead.

>>7374643
also leather breaks in after a while, so once its well worn it will be very comfortable and if you got it in the right size, will fit your frame great.

perfecto's are the only leather jacket acceptable
but 9 times out of 10 when someone wears a leather jacket it looks pretty autistic

>>7374671
>implying margiela 5 zip isnt fa
>implying hedis 4 pocket leather jacket isnt fa
>implying rick owens leather jackets arent fa

such implications..

>>7374686
i dont know half a shit about leather jackets but yeah sure whatever man
gooberninja leather jackets look a bit dumb to me tho

>>7374686
>Implying any of those is going to look less autistic on most neckbeards/fuccbois
Much implications, many greentext, wow

>>7374692
>gooberninja

the first two are pretty conventional and the third just has an assymetriclal zipper are you this fucking retarded

>you dont know shit about leather jackets
implying i dont own 4 leather jackets 2 of which are listed above but yeah sorry i didnt take the history of leather jackets class at upenn

>>7374697
anything will look retarded on neckbeards whats your point

>>7374705
dude i never called them gooberninja jackets i didnt even google them
i said "I DONT KNOW half a shit about leather jackets
dude what the fuck is wrong with you calm down

>>7374710
shit i read wrong..

idrc you get my point

its just guys like bandit troll people into actually believing leather jackets are autistic just by posting a few fat guys in bad fitting ones..

if i posted fat guys in bad fitting suits would no one on fa wear suits anymore?
>look at that fuccboi 30 year old man coming back from work hes actually wearing a suit
>lol autist

>>7374723
ya k

>>7374708
>And fuccbois
Do you even remember Bandit?

Also, did you get the Margiela new? How is it to wear?

>>7374733
oh god i have like 3 pictures of bandits autism

>>7374751

>>7374742
last time i saw a bandit post was a month ago but then again i dont go on here too often anymore

yeah actually the one that they have at barneys rn and its great i like how the dior fits better its tighter and shorter but the 5 zip gets more wear.

idk if i answered you question or not you should specify, also im at my parents house rn once i get home if i remember i can post fit pics

>>7374733
>>7374751
Bandit made a good point though; that the majority of people/fuccbois who buy leather jackets buy tacky, cheap, ill-fitting ones and almost universally do so - consciously or unconsciously - as a costume piece. Which is autistic, and going to make you look like a fuccboi

>>7374733
Also I feel your suit example is a bad example to use, as it's not the kind of thing people wear around as casually/generally as you would a leather jacket. And if you do, it's almost certain to look autistic.
And suits really need to be well-fitting to look good, otherwise they can look pretty autistic (ref. above)
And workwear is usually exempt from /fa/ critique anyway

You do not ride a motorcycle

You are not Marlon Brando

You are not James Dean

You are a skinny pasty suburban teen trying to look cool and edgy.

Halloween is only one day in the year.

You are wearing a costume piece.

Nobody thinks you look cool.

There are no exceptions.

You will look like a pussy poser bitch.

>>7374770
Bandit's like a less trolltastic version of sieg now, it's a semi-public trip that a couple of people took over, then it evolved into Bandido and I haven't seen anyone post as them for a while either :(

Naw it's cool man, no need for fit pics I have

Haha actually I was just wondering, every now and then I find myself really interested in getting one or a Julius one but then I find myself weirded out by the side zips, reckon it'd be too hard to style for me personally
I'll stick to my Rick :/
>But if you remember when you get home, fit pics would be appreciate dude

>>7374824
this is completely different to a leather jacket

because if you dont ride a motorcycle you wont be able to pull it off

vans can be pulled off by anyone

>>7374824
Vans aren't a costume piece though
I mean, you could easily go the other end of the scale and say
>Stop wearing your drive jacket
>You're not a movie character

Crazy, no?
>demarcation

>>7374532
What kind of style jacket are you looking for?

Racer? Aviator?

Think over the styling, too. You may want it to be very simplistic. I can help you out, OP.

I like to think that I am an expert with leather goods, especially leather jackets. Cheers.

>>7374839
leather jackets arent a costume piece you have no idea how ridiculous that sounds

I'm really a fan of this style, but I'm not sure about the sizing. An EU 50 sounds like it may be too big.

Oh shiiiiit nigga that's nice
3,400 bin though... and it's from Greece :/
Reckon you might get in their with an offer? Seller seems pretty legit

And is that zipper just slightly asymmetrical, or am I hallucinating again?

DUTY CALLS.

LET'S DO THIS.

In reality, leather jackets are shit and they shouldn't be worn by anybody. I will extoll this argument in the following posts.

>>7374878
Oh, right
>S-sorry
It's nice, if you've got the wardrobe for it (and you do)
I like CCP's stuff, reminds me a lot of Julius' rawer leathers

>>7374880
I cant afford that shit, I'm at least not delusional

You see, a leather jacket isn’t a garment, it’s a mistake. It is one goofy looking mistake. Do you see this sack of virginity?

Mistake.

Look at anon wearing a glossy black-cowhide jacket and you can almost hear the dialogue that goes through his head: “I can’t pull off a leather jacket. Wait a minute. You know what? Screw it. I’m going to be the guy who looks good in one. Wait a minute. Does this fit right?”

You can picture him slipping it on, looking in the mirror, and thinking to himself, “Nice”. What he failed to consider is that a leather jacket makes a statement. Despite the jacket’s fit or design, the statement is not a flattering one. Leather jackets are synonymous with the movie icons of the previous century. Images of the bad boys, James Dean and Marlon Brando come to mind. Younger men, trying to sex up their image, try to emulate these movie icons. Leather jackets have, essentially, been relegated to costume wear. No matter what kind of leather jacket you wear, someone will think, “Wow, he’s trying to pull off the Marlon Brando look.” What does this mean? It means that you cannot be taken seriously when wearing a leather jacket.

But you might think, “Leather jackets are timeless! They can be pulled off! Post a fit, fuccboi!”

My answer: No. Leather jackets are costume-ish. Costume-ish is precisely how the cowhide jacket looks on a hapless fool from /fa/. It’s time to get real. Leather jackets don’t exude coolness or sex appeal. They are tacky and are doomed to clichédom. In the collective subconscious of /fa/—despite ample evidence to the contrary—is the idea that leather jackets appeal to girls. On the contrary, walk down the street in a leather jacket and every girl will perceive you as a threat or entirely pathetic. She will avoid you. She will imagine you as a greasy creep that might possibly grope her ass, or even worse, a greasy little nerd that wants to look like a badass. A leather jacket is a mistake in first impressions.

>>7374905
>>7374916
>>7374927
>implying bad fits with leather jackets make them inherently bad

It's all about how you style it, like with any piece.

When a leather jacket is thrown over an outfit, it serves as an event horizon; the point of no return. That leather jacket instantly ruins the outfit, and it testifies the poor fashion sense of the wearer. Leather jackets never look good. Never wear a leather jacket.

>>7374938
>It's all about how you style it, like with any piece.
How about cow shit? What if you wore cow shit all over your body? Would you style it?

Leather jackets are just like cow shit, ugly and gross. If you are telling me that you can style shit then you are deluded.

t shirts are autistic and costumeish

just look at this virgin wigger wearing one

look how bad he looks

him specifically

therefore no one should wear t shirts ever

The biggest creeps seem to be attracted to leather jackets.

>>7374948
This leather jacket would suit him well.

Leather jackets are autistic. They just look awful. Leather jackets are pretty much costume wear. You might as well wear a clown outfit, because no one is going to take you seriously when you wear a leather jacket. You probably think you look like Marlon Brando, but the truth is that you don't. You actually look like a nerd that is trying to look badass when wearing a leather jacket.

My advice: Leather jackets. Dont wear 'em. Why shouldn't you wear them? They look like shit. All. The. Time. Get real. Stop trying to look cool, because you are not cool and you are not a badass. Wear something else that looks good and doesn't make you look stupid.

The truth is, leather jackets never look good. You should never wear a leather jacket. They are pretty much the fedora-level jackets. Let me tell you one thing. You will look autistic when you wear a leather jacket. Again, never wear a leather jacket. They look like shit.

are you actually trying to prove bandit right or what

>>7375003
Yes. Leather jackets only look good on people that look good with anything on them

>>7374996
Wow, he looks unkempt and gritty. He basically looks like shit, and then he decides to throw on a shitty jacket to add onto the shit factor. There's a whole lot of shit going on here, it's like he stepped out of a shit factory.

>>7374976
Your wisdom is as important as ever

>>7375009
>Leather jackets only look good on people that look good with anything on them
>only look good

No. You are wrong. Leather jackets look like shit. They will look like shit on beautiful people as well as ugly people. Shit is an inherent property of leather jackets.

stfu bandido

>>7374985
Bandido just give up. your whiny Holden Caufield sounding copypasta lost it's humor long ago, everyone knows you're wrong on this. I'm sorry you can't pull off a leather jacket, but that doesn't mean everyone else can't

>>7375018
Thank you for your support. I dedicate this post to you.

This dog has a bad sense of style, and he needs help. I don't know how he thought that leather jackets look good. He just looks like a clown.

>>7375045
Why do I only see you in these threads?

Are you really that big on public service announcements?

>>7375027
ur full of shit

>Are you really that big on public service announcements?
I'm actually writing a script for an After School Special style drama where a misled adolescent wears leather jackets to the detriment of society. I feel like this production encompasses what I have been saying for years: "Leather jackets look like shit. Never wear a leather jacket."

what happens if you are related to brando?

>>7375084
>what happens if you are related to brando?
That's impossible. That is like dividing by zero.

>>7375088

how do you know that

>>7375080
lmao just drop your trip you piece of shit

keep it up and you'll be more pathetic than sieg

>>7375094
I knew that, but I know you aren't related to Brando.

In any case, relations to Brando or any iconic screen actor doesn't mean you can wear a leather jacket. The ban is still in effect.

>>7375080
Would cop tickets.

Your sense of self-parody is admirable, unlike most faggots in this board.

>>7375107
I read the crystal ball. It tells me all. All and ball rhyme.

Leather jackets look like shit, wear one and get hit. Leather jacket's are not legit. Why not? Because they look like shit.

>>7375088
I guess I'll just ride without any safety gear, I mean if it makes me look autistic, i certainly don't want that.

You fucking moron.

Bandido
>pls stay

>>7375109
>keep it up and you'll be more pathetic than sieg
That is impossible. Sieg does not come from this planar dimension. He comes from a world that I do not wish to know of, and what's worse is that he admits to owning several leather jackets. Between his extraterrestrial status and his ownership of leather jackets, I do not know what disturbs me more.

>>7375120
You can find suitable textile jackets that will provide adequate protection on the road. Stop trying to be a tough guy.

>>7375123

What's the big deal about not using contractions? Shouldn't you be doing something else, like fawning over your leather jacket collection? Can't you see that you are dumbass?

I also want to say that your spelling of "Ghenghis Kahn" is atrocious. It's spelled "Genghis Khan". Read a book, or even a Wikipedia article or something. You are stupid, and you wear leather jackets.

Well, I'm going to skiff if you sniff my drift.

Good night, everybody. I hope that you all stop wearing leather jackets someday.
