To answer much of your question, you need the physique to pull it off, but that goes for any type of fashion

Desert boots too. White pants are probably pretty versatile in a summer-workwear arsenal but what do I know

Think about it. Workwear/menswear has a lot to do with evoking masculinity (or so thinks /fa/) so you're gonna want a nice upper body so you can fill out henleys and stuff

Unless you're Asian maybe. Then you can also get away with having less facial hair for these styles. This pic is more menswear though

Honestly? If you plan on staying trap-mode, workwear isn't really for you. The whole idea of "workwear" implies that you have some kind of blue-collar, manual-labor based that would result in a more muscular physique.

HOWEVER! A slight flip-side to that coin is the preppy look, which is very easy to rock if you have a slender physique.

Thanks for the reply.

I eat shit-tons and it just never goes through into my body. I'm Asian too.

Although work-wear looks amazing and I'd like to try it, I should definitely go with a preppy look.

(I'm sorry OP for letting me hijack your thread.)

Bottom right is a god-tier fit.

My body is pretty similar to that, but a lot of people here seem to think you need to be huge or muscular to pull off work wear. I do light lifting and am "big" (broad shoulders, wide chest, average legs, but skinny arms).

Can I pull off workwear? Where I go to school isn't very /fa/, so I feel like I can stand out without having to look like a moon ninja.

When you guys say "work" wear do, you mean clothes to wear while you are working, ergo landscaping, etc. Or is this just a type of fashion. Because i cant imagine working outside in those clothes. I would get heat stroke

It's a style based on what blue collar workers wore back in the day. There's an emphasis on durability, hence all the heavy denim.

I guess this might be the the thread to ask.

What does /fa/ think of pic related? It's what wear for work. I think most similar boots look pretty damn good as long you aren't a retard who tucks his pants into them.
