Burberry outlet FTW. You can get em for half price, just not getting them when they drop. My first wallet I got from them was $250 retail, only paid $160.

As mentioned, i bought two of them and will be buying more to top up some christmas gifts for family. Very solid deal and cheap enough to be a little experimental with colour or pattern.

Don’t get burberry patterns though… that’s wack

Lol, anywho… any suggestions for a somewhat casual summer shoe? Gotta look good with like a khaki short and must be comfortable. I was thinking something along the lines of a dock shoe or w/e they’re called but figured it’d be pretty douchey seeing as though I dislike boats.

boat shoes aren’t TOO douchey…it’s hard to find anything nice to match shorts though (other than sneakers).

Sorry but, I all i can think of whenever I see the posts in this thread is…

Nouveau riche (French for “new rich”), or new money, refers to a person who has acquired considerable wealth within his or her generation.[1] This term is generally to emphasize that the individual was previously part of a lower socioeconomic rank, and that such wealth has provided the means for the acquisition of goods or luxuries that were previously unobtainable. The term can also be used in a derogatory fashion, for the purposes of social class distinction, to describe persons with newfound wealth as vulgar—lacking the experience or finesse to use wealth in the same manner as old money—persons from families who have been wealthy for multiple generations.

Nah, just rarely carry money on me and its more comfortable and convenient for me to just stick all my cards in my front pocket as opposed to to have a wallet just for cards.

first off i would like to say, i dont wear shit to impress a girl, a guy, a boss, etc… i wear what makes me happy. Somedays that means a suit to work even though i dont have to (business casual). on my weekends id rather just throw on my nikes,a fitted (i wear them straight and properly sized) a throwback and some cargo shorts. i grew up a sports fan, i love wearing sports jerseys of players i watched when i was little, i didnt grow up rooting for queer clothes designers and i’m not gonna pretend now like i’m from somewhere i’m not or be someone i’m not.

my sister is about as country club(literally) high class as they come when it comes to taste…90% of the stuff listed in this thread is fake stuff for trend seekers. She wouldn;t even bat her eye at this crap. buying the products in this thread is about the equivalent to jumping on a sports bandwagon. I think this thread is about being trendy and being TRENDY is a fancy word for DOUCHE. If you want to impress a REAL person…not a FAKE person…you want to be CLASSY not TRENDY. old money vs new money! the football equvalent is Deion Sanders that does a dance when he scores a touchdown and jerry rice who give the ball to the ref when he scores a touchdown. while both are the best at what they did people will recall deion as a huge douchbag for his antics but jerry rice will be a legend some day as the quintessential professional. class is JR Ewing, trend is Sonny crockett. class is big money, trend is n\*\*\*\*r rich

the best way i can put it in car terms for car guys is a scene from the movie gone in 60 seconds

Roger the Car Salesman: My name’s Roger, Sir. May I be of some help?  
Memphis: That’s funny, my name’s Roger… Two Rogers don’t make a right.  
[laughs]  
Memphis: Roger, I have a problem…  
Roger the Car Salesman: Yes?  
Memphis: I’ve been in L.A. for three months now. I have money, I have taste. But I’m not on anybody’s “A” list, and Saturday night is the loneliest night for the week for me.  
Roger the Car Salesman: Well, a Ferrari would certainly change that.  
Memphis: Perhaps, Mmmm. But, you know, this is the one. Yes, yes yes… I saw three of these parked outside the local Starbucks this morning, which tells me only one thing. There’s too many self-Indulgent wieners in this city with too much bloody money! Now, if I was driving a 1967 275 GTB four-cam…  
Roger the Car Salesman: You would not be a self-indulgent wiener, sir… You’d be a connoisseur.  
Memphis: Precisely. Champagne would fall from the heavens. Doors would open. Velvet ropes would part.

If I take a job where I know I was hired because I had a nice watch or shoes that cost a first born child, I would kindly decline that position.

who wants to work for a fake? i agree! i also would want to work for a company that promotes “YES” men. Yes men are happy with status quo and that is terrible for progress
