Work shirts vs. Westerns
-
So you don't have anything against the yoke/snap aesthetic? It's just a fit thing?
The western aesthetic is the deal killer for me. The slimmer fit is better and I like snaps, but I have never liked western style shirts. Living in Texas has made me more paranoid about looking like a caricature, too.
-
And yet you wear cowboy boots…....yeee haaaa !!
-
Exactly. Boots, jeans and western shirt= constant "Where'd ya park your horse, pardner?" jokes.
I have to endure enough of that shit every time I leave the state as it is.
-
Embrace it hoss
-
Just as soon as you embrace dressing like an Englishman.

That is how I dress all the time when not taking WAYWT pics for the internet…..and (official secret), so does Giles.

Americans and Benny Hill…....weird.

I like westerns a little more. But I like works almost as much, really. Can't have a wardrobe without a few of each.
My IH collection is still in its infancy (and really my entire wardrobe since I started trying to built something nice about a year and half ago), but it's coming along.
I will pick up the 102 Work at some point, but I'm holding out for some other stuff right now.
-
Not to push you towards the 102 now, but I am pretty sure it is on its way to extinction.
-
I am aware of this. Just in the boat of "don't want to part with 102 funds yet until necessary" (since I have the 101, my purple fix is temporarily stifled).

Chris and Seul, working.

In case you couldn't tell, that's me on the left. No western shirts. Ever!
-
Beer o'clock here in Baile Átha Cliath (Dublin) too.
In the interests of not slagging off the Brits or the Yanks I'll add a little civility and state that I love snap westerns and have never owned a work shirt. If I were to own one the IHSH-75 is it. A beautiful shirt.

Harmless banter, I love my American brothers and sisters….they were almost English once
