I don't know what to wear

LegacyUser

I'm hopeless on fashion so could anyone tell me,
are striped rugby shirts ok, for a male aged 21
or are they dated?

what should I be wearing, I don't know?

Dude, wear whatever the hell you want, and don't worry about it.

If you think it looks good on you, wear it.

Cool clothes don't attract women.

Confidence with a hefty side of money and power is all you need

Wear what ever you want (although you wouldn't catch me in one of em).

That Beruthiel could be right.
Ignore me (...and don't watch Formula 1 )

I dunno. I tend to think sports clothes are for sports. Wear whatever. Personally I like to wear some nice designer jeans with a funky tee and some nice boots... I'm comfortable in it and it's grand for going out in.

uberwolf

yeah what Kold said. TBH. Personally I'm not a fan of the striped rugby jersey thing. You wouldn't wear a generic football shirt striped so why rugby. All my jerseys demonstrate some affinity with a team.

What everyone else said, wear what you want but when I see a group of lads dressed in those shirts I automatically think 'w*nkers'....but that's just me

Have to say I agree with this. Wearing a rugby shirt is like advertsing the fact that you simply can't be bothered to make an effort...what's wrong with a nice casual shirt or t-shirt? Rugby shirts only say one thing and that is that the person wearing it is a complete w*anker!

SheroN

what about if someone actually played rugby and they were wearing a rugby shirt would that make them a wanker?.

I have to agree aswell. If you wanna wear a rugby shirt, wear a official one like a New Zealand one.

Yes, but generally very big **** who would break you for such statements...

Wear any rugby jersey you like - the better quality ones are more expensive but nicer than the <20E tops. Guinness rugby jerseys are very cool too (they're about the only reason I can think of to go into the tacky tourist shop on the corner of Westmoreland St).

The exception is the new style Nike tops as worn by England, France, SA etc.

Kold

Yeah.. It's like when England won the wc i was like... I should get a commemorative jersey... But they look really gay..

Nonsense I tell my friends that all the time but yeah the new official french and italian tops are very nice... and finally break from that god awful school rugby look.

On the inside of his pants? So size does matter?

were you ever in any doubt? :dunno:

Stripes than run horizontally like the ones from the link tend to exagerate weight so if you are in any way chunky around your midriff/belly, then I would stay well clear of them. Only my opinion, but those shirts seem well out of fashion, I remember my mother buying stuff like that for me was I was 13, and that was more than a decade ago.

Emboss

a nice mini skirt....

if you're planning on wearing a rugby shirt ye may aswell go the whole hog

Doodee

pfft.

was a point where rugby shirts were all the rage.

Best bet is to just shop around, if you dont know what looks good on you and you dont trust your own taste then just get a mate (pref Female) to go shopping with you, but then again, ya may aswell have her hold your hand crossing the road you big child.

Tbh, great bargains can be found in Oxfam/other charity shops or a lost and found box.

*Me sniffs jumper*

AHHHH! the smell of free clothes.

Delusional

NO! I don't like those shirts in that link!!

Sangre

Pffft, dont really liked long-sleeved rugby shirts, or striped ones, stripes look better on a football jersey, if even.

simu

For many people, rugby shirts are a sign of w@nkerdom.

I'd say you should just stick to clothes in classic styles (basic trousers, shirts, t-shirts etc) and dark colours - they don't go out of date and you don't have to wash them very often.

Dunnes and Penny's are good and cheap as long as you sstay away from the stuff with logos like "Anarchy" and "l33t surfer" - type slogans on them.

i usually wear a black t shirt with some band i like on it and a pair of black jeans and boots
nothin fancy , its comfertable and it says who i am

azezil

I was going to say 'wear whatever you're comfortable in, if you're happy and confident it doesn't matter what you're wearing' ... however then i clicked the link, for the love of god don't wear that shite!

Get your ass down to a clothes store and ask for assistance, you need it!

c0rk3r

Turner

Jeans and fleece tops/t shirts are the way forward...

Just what ever you do dont wear tracksuit and runners!!!!!!

Woden

nothing wrong with tracksuit bottoms and runners i wear em all the time with fleece tops usually as well

tinkerbell

Noooo, don't wear that shirt in the link!!! Those sorta clothes ain't the clothes to wear if you wanna pull a ladyyy.

StephenInsane

Why not get a cool All Blacks or Munster one instead. Altough I know they're not cheap.

catspring

who cares if the bloody shirts are dated?? (not saying that they are, i wouldn't have a clue...)
if you like them, wear them!!!! it doesn't matter what other people think.

there's no rules as to what you "should" and "shouldn't" be wearing (though keep in mind that it's best not be done for indecent exposure!!). just wear clothes that you like the look of and that you feel comfortable in.

and as c0rk3r said look at what other people are wearing for ideas.

You do realise with that last sentence you completly contradicted the previous two paragraphs?

catspring

how does it? if it seems so it's coz i phrased it wrong
i meant that he may need to experiment with a few different styles before he finds one that suits him, and it may be helpful to get some ideas off other people whos clothes he likes.
sorry, if that's not any clearer but am just too tired for this atm

MF2HD

why not take a stroll around m&S or Dunnes even if youre too intimidated to go into the cool stores...you'll get an idea ish of whats to be worn!
