w2c good basic bitch t-shirts for the tall/skinny?

Most shirts fit horribly because they're either too short, not broad enough in the shoulders, or baggy.

It really depends where you go at the moment. By the time some cities are just catching on to a trend it'll be played out somewhere else.

As far as England goes, I think they're going to filter down to smaller towns over the next year the way Roshes did. When they were first getting attention here I would never see another pair offline, even had strangers stop me in the street to compliment them, but now they seem pretty standard for River Island bois in provincial Essex towns.

I thought niggers were into Stan Smiths though.

>What makes the Stan Smith such a stylish sneaker to you?
>It just looks classic. It’s the finishing touch, especially if you compare it to the shell-toe. When it comes to the Stan Smith, it’s way more smooth and way more classic to me.

Here is what I have learned browsing here about shoes/sneakers over the past while:

All shoes are memes around here, name any shoe and I can tell you why it's meme-y.

Unless you're in a high fashion area, it most likely won't matter wearing Stans around.
