And if it's not about style' date=' why have you developed your own style??? [/quote'] Sticks and stones dude Substitute the word "style" with "comfort zone" then. Popped collars is a peer pressure thing. I'm sure most of the guys that do it know they look like absolute ass tw@ts, but have to do it to look cool. Me, on the other hand, do not suffer from peer pressure or the need to look cool or be accepted (by a bunch of halfwits). I do and wear what I want because its functional. I kid you not... it won't be long before Shimano released M231's - Grandpa slippers with cleats.

I know that the kid who wanted to visit my daughter wearing granpa slippers tried it, but he still ended up outside on the pavement until he learned to dress properly.

Minion Posted February 11, 2008 Share I used to wear my lambswool slippers and socks to rowing in winter - until one of them disappeared .I still wear socks and sandals on occasion, but I draw the line at Crocs - those things look ridiculous. Popped collars are only OK when you've forgotten the sunscreen. Napalm: if you're stuck on Everest with only a golf shirt, you're getting no sympathy from me . Finally, from another forum I frequent, the correct way to wear a golf shirt:Step 1) Pop that collar. You won't get anywhere in life if your collar looks like it suffers from impotence. What you need to do is flip it upright...that's right, like Elvis. It does cause a bit of wind resistance when running, but aerodynamicsare not your major concern right now, channeling the spirit of "TheKing" however, is. Step 2)Find yourself a snazzy belt buckle, but not just any belt buckle...abig ass Walker Texas Ranger sized belt buckle...one you can use todecapitate a small animal with. I've noticed Diesel buckles tend to be quite a popular choice amongst these fashionistas. Step 3) Step 3 is the cherry on the cake, the final piece of the puzzle that will complete your masterpiece of oozing sex appeal. What you need to do is take the front part of said golfshirt and carefully tuck it in behind your Chuck Norris belt buckle,which should then accentuate the awesomeness that is the metal platethat locks down your belt and holds up your pants.

Willehond Posted February 11, 2008 Share ...ai maar julle oumense kan kla! Thanks Edman for the enlightening post. ...as for Crocs. Where are those Worcester Wheeler peeps with the orange ones?

boeing Posted February 11, 2008 Share My 16 year old brother, one of the biggest anti-jocks around (he makes me so proud) goes around school fixing all the popped collars saying "There you go, now you don't look like a " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyOwl Posted February 11, 2008 Share boeing...your brother is an anarchist in the purist form!! I salute him!! Ok...the leather sandal/Moccasin debate...it looks fag. I'm sorry, its terribly gay!! I know a few gay men (I cringe at typing that!) and they ALWAYS wear the fancy leather things without socks!!! And you cannot deny it! But those collars are terrible...proof that nobody has their own identity anymore. And as for wearing cycling apparell to race registration...I've never understood it myself!! Crocs are proof that with the right marketing, anybody can sell anything, to anyone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What really struck me was when you said that nobody has their own identity. You hit the nail on the head. Even rock has become popular and fashionable. It drives me insane! Whatever happened to being yourself? Incubus have a song called "make yourself". It really strikes true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
