Turn away and start running as fast as you can. Run hard and long and fast until you feel like your lungs are on fire, and do not look back:

8 threads on the Trad front page are initiated by "Kato" Katon.  None worth reading.  He's been Granstroming for American-made Gingham short sleeved "Popovers" (???), exploring the 5 pocket look, coining the ever popular Trad "Psychodelia" moniker, ruminating on pincord, etc.  And you thought Gil had a lot of time on his hands.


Cigar porn.  (Where on earth are they?)

Marmer is great, I think that guy is great. He just doesn't give a damn. He is a good example of who can wear a beard: older men who are overweight. I think I shall go post that link over on Talk Ivy and piss off the bearded youngsters.

The evening dress gents are odd. They do indeed look like vampires or somehting, as good a case for concealled carry as I've ever seen (don't forget to hand load silver bullets, lead just won't do the trick).

Deckard as always looks like he's sweating like a pig because he's overdressed. His buddy saves himself by looking embarassed at the posing. That chick is actually really hott.

You guys just have no appreciation for decadent Italian luxury. You've probably never even BEEN to TJ Maxx or Homegoods!

Two million words on black suits. Earl of Ormonde again tries to tell Andyland a painful truth (that people wear black suits all the time and often look just fine); again the Andylanders become hysterical and rebuke him. It has kind of a New Testament vibe. Curmudgeons turn out in droves to claim a universal truth for their personal associations ("black suits? That's what the crime gangsters wear!"), as Popeye pointed out re: Cuffers.

My personal opinion on black suits: cheap, ill-fitting black suits look awful (especially if you are fat), nice, well-fitting black suits look fine. No one cares. I wouldn't wear one to a job interview or a garden party. If a black suit presents an insurmountable shirt/shoes/tie matching problem for you, you probably won't be able to handle any other color either.

This guy will last about ten minutes - he bashes Pags in his first post. A helpful imbecile later in the thread claims that this is actionable libel - if only some high-priced streetfighter would weigh in on this issue! Probably a troll, but delightful nonetheless.
