Is there honestly anything more undignified than being a yacht fag? You're physiologically weak and a psychological bitch, so any strenuous labour is given out to the Hispanic handyman to accomplish. You're a conformist to bourgeois values and mentally confined by them, but not for any intellectual or spiritual reason - you couldn't exist outside of the safe space of the golf club or harbor. You're so mentally leashed and dispassionate that your wife is most likely fucking the caddy on the side and buying him nice clothes to fit her roleplay, which further stresses your credit (which is about to explode because your lesser executive or management position isn't as valuable as you think it is).

If you're lucky, you might have a son that got through business school and doesn't manage to burn the money you give him. Your daughter has a 50/50 chance of either becoming a professional, or going for a useless degree and burning all of your money while she tries to keep her exponentially increasing expectations fulfilled as her chance of success exponentially decays. You'll probably spend hundreds of thousands on therapy and items for her, and her mother will follow down the same hole. You'll come home from the office to find the wife exploring the newest pop spirituality exercises to ward off boredom, while your daughter's discontented whining filters in from her room. Your son might be suiting up for a night out, having replaced you as the man of the family. If you weren't born into this lifestyle, you'll probably be wishing for a time machine back to your middle class days.

You'll buy a $3000 revolver (no, you aren't one of those lowbred gun nuts) and spin the cylinder subconsciously thinking of suicide. You'll hear the lawnmower motor puttering and start to envy your gardening team - Jose and his sons put in a hard days work and head home exhausted, but their place in society is only rising. Yours is only downhill.

Boat Shoes should be more like slippers, while you should lace the bluchers.

J. Crew is pretty solid, and affordable compared to some other "preppy" brands. They should usually fall at or above the knee for the best look (and pretty comfy in my opinion). This means that the inseam should usually be anywhere from 9 to 5 inches

[Anonymous No.12511677]

J. Crew is okay. Have some of their stretch chino shorts. Pretty thin. Got a hole my second time wearing them somehow. Sent them an e-mail and they are sending me a replacement for free.

Bonobos, Chubbies, Vineyard Vines, and Brooks Brothers are all good options.

I'm 6' and wear 9 inchers. Might get some 7's in the future. If you are a manlet, 7 inch is the absolute longest you could wear.

I'm attending an event that will be full of people who should naturally be used to dressing in a swish prep style, unfortunately from previous events I can see that they tend to go for a 'dress up for the day' prep look. with little deviation from; Salmon chinos, boat shoes, blazer.

Try the Tretorn Nylites. They were my go-to Summer shoe last year. I beat them to hell and they still clean up great.
If you're not into those, then maybe try the Adidas Gazelles. I have them in an off-white colorway and they are one of the most versatile shoes I own.
