/fa/ was my first fashion board. i only visit cause i still go on other 4chan boards.

moved to styleforum a few years ago during the #menswear heyday, but i only rarely stop by now.

i'm on sufu mostly nowadays cause they're nerdy ass kids that i enjoy lurking on.

/r/malefashion i peruse occasionally, they're good, but i hate the reddit community in general.

i have learned over the years that

they didn't used to be so bad, but they have far, far too many subscribers to be any good these days
i think reddit works like that: once a sub reaches a critical mass it turns completely to shit no matter what it was like before

>>/fa/ is the least knowledgeable but also the most arrogant forum/board
does that surprise you considering the demographic?
this place has changed a lot but still manages to stay the same in this regard

>sufu
>styleforum

one thing that bothers me about their street wear sections is pages and pages of fit pics with the most abhorrent cuffing of jeans out there
it's laughable.

expensive jeans
expensive footwear

for a look that's ruined because the owner tries to be trendy and ends up looking like a retard you just got his big boy pants

i guess it shouldn't, but the other 4chan boards i visit aren't as arrogant and immature. i guess it's all the 16 year olds who love fashun.

>for a look that's ruined because the owner tries to be trendy and ends up looking like a retard
oh, no, i agree with you there. definitely a lot of messed up fits that are repped, but you don't know if they're serious reps or reps for brands or reps because they look like a joke.

i would like to see a new wave of good trips come to /fa/ though and see where this board goes. looks like a dismal future though.

been going here since 2 years ago this fall

its had its ups and downs and i havent been here for all of them, but this is where i took my first babby steps in learning about how not to look awful and for that this will always be my main board

started going on mfa a lot about a year ago. a lot of nerds on here give it shit but its a pretty decent place if you know where to look.

they have a few people with good fits, everyone else is pretty unexceptional. their sidebar probably has one of the best collections of info in one place out of any of the websites listed above.

Mfa is probably best for beginners because it's so structured. I hate their WAYWT though, top 10 is almost always boring basicbitch shit "upboated because everything fits well xD". Usually some good ones further down though. There's some good posters though.

There was an interesting little resurgence here when more heritage Japanism got popular and people were talking about new stuff and sharing new inspo ( Around with the trips Coldoy, Askone, Scapade, etc ) but they all ran dry pretty quick

Other than that, /fa/ hasn't been very entertaining in over a year or so. I want a knowledgeable place with no identity circlejerking.

you should try not being a racist fuck on liberal forums tho.

That derailment was hilarious though, and I had quite a bit of fun in PM with the black dude who took such offense to your comment. Told him I was black and that he was being racist against white people, I really got him good I think because he keeps PMing me every day even though I don't respond anymore.

I can't believe you post on SF though, SF has the best waywt hands down, but it is also is the least informative forum (though it does have one of the best user-bases in terms of not being fucking immature 12 year old faggots like at SZ). It also has the shittiest search function and loads of useless threads/post that offer very little in terms of information.

co-sign this. i really wanted to like care-tags because i think there's not enough fashion forums as is but it has a really annoying vibe. way too overly positive and sentimental, feels like a giant hugbox. places like sufu could deff turn down the heat a bit but care-tags is almost the complete opposite. if anyone remembers lookbook.nu they had a no negativity policy, you legit were not allowed to say anything even neutral, only positive comments, care-tags makes me think of what lookbook.nu would have been if it was a forum.

its like a cross between that weird cult like no negativity ever vibe + tumblr / reddit hivemind hugbox type deal. it's a shame because their designer threads are super well researched and i think they have some pretty knowledgeable members (although i watched one of their podcasts and it was legit horrible, the topic was tacticool, and they got the definition wrong and spent 45 minutes basically discussing it totally incorrectly, was mad embarrassing).

anywho, yeah it seems like every site is defined more by what about it sucks than what about it is good.
