I was in high school 12 years ago. The shirts dont have buttons lol.

Also, a large back then is as big or bigger then many XL today even with the same brand.

I could rock that look. Though I gotta lose the belly from all the beer I've been chugging lately.

I still have a ton of clothes from high school that I'm slowly getting rid of (graduated 10 years ago).

I've got a few bags of clothes I need to donate...

As far as the jeans, just get them a couple sizes larger around the waist and wear suspenders.....they will be more comfortable and you can change the pant length by loosening or tightening the suspenders.

Like the dude said "I wear size 34 jeans, but size 38s are more comfortable" .....


humfrz

my waist is a 34 but I need 36 to get them past my ass. so far the best fitting jeans I've found are from barbellapparel. they're 1% spandex so they stretch and after a few weeks break in very well.

My gf just discovered this store called Ross down at the Bay Area and can't believe how they can price all these cool stuff like Value Village here. Canada is so expensive it's sad.

If you want no break-in period with jeans you gotta go Armani. They are super comfy with so much stretch they feel like suit trousers.

I wish Levis would bring back the Wide Leg from the 90's. This metro sizing since Y2K is pissing me off.

We make more (on average) though so technically this are the same price. It just seems like we pay more if you take the prices out of context.

GS is the most adjustable and why I chose mine. Though I got it in the GB so wasnt as expensive. Still better then a ticket esepecially since non-correctable front plate tickets are happening lately.

I know since it's not permanently affixed. Though I'm glad to see the Grimm speed is more adjustable. I can get kind of picky about right angles. I had a co-worker at a previous job with a Camaro tell me he had his plate on the dash for the last few years in Eureka. Even my grandmother was telling me don't bother. I think the only reason her Mustang has them on at all is because my grandfather.

The CHP and DMV clerk were both telling me very politely to use both plates. All I could say was "yes sir/yes ma'am." But then I drove home without front plates... Oh well. :Bonk: Grimm speed is ordered.

Finally somebody also noticed the same thing. I still have some pieces from the 90's in large and they fit like XL or XXL from recent times.

The only clothes that I've seen lately that have old skool sizing is probably retro Starter Jackets from Carl Banks.

Skyrim blows my mind sometimes.

"I still don't know why Skjor let you join the Companions!"

Bitch, are you kidding me? I kill dragons in my spare time (and killed Alduin), saved Skyrim from a civil war, I'm a thane in every hold and I killed Miraak. What more do I need to do to prove my worth.

I donated a bunch a few years ago. Need to make another run. The faded/peeling stuff needs to finally go.

The requirement is "securely fastened" and that meets the standard. Be a great practical demonstration in court when you asked the cop too show their alternate restraints.
