    If you don't like the clothes - then say so.

    But I suggest keeping the giggly aspersions to thyself.

    What say, people??

    For me those clothes fall into the Jacobite shirt category. Some people can pull them off, but not this unit. I'll stick with kilts and such, thankee.

    I'm certainly ready to criticize the "fashion" industry. While we've focussed here on men's "fashion," it would do us well to remember some of the hideous, atrocious, unfeminine "women's fashion" that's out there. Every so often I'll see a report on the cutting edge of female "fashion" and I recoil in horror. Anorexic boys on the "man's fashion" runways matched with anorexic girls on the "women's fashion" runways. Feh, fah, and fie, says I!

    On the other paw, I think of it this way: doubtless those anorexical outfits displayed in brother Rigged's link EACH COST more than two or three sixteen ounce hand sewn eight yard tanks. I just ask myself, "Which am I more likely to own?"

    I would say Kilt wins over current Men's fashion, hands down. I wouldn't be caught dead in any of the ourfits off that link... Kilt however, I wear them when I'm alive, and wanna be buried in one. A matching tartan coffin wouldn't be bad either...

    None of these styles would be my choice of "fall fashion", either.

    Thanks for the reminder Blu. Sometimes it does seem the "testosterone" level is a bit high and one sided on this forum.

    Agreed, the clothes are not my fashion choice either.

    Possibly not the designers either. They just seem to go for the shock value.

    Of course the Wizard of BC recently gave us a great alternative to the Gucci runway.
