S#!T your better half says about your wardrobe

[weftyarn]

What a great thread idea - some of those posts are hilarious. Santa Boots…

As for my better half: I mostly manage to sell new acquisitions with the "I can sell it later for much more" argument (which has actually been true in most cases).

The most hated piece in the wardrobe:
She once said I looked like a prisoner in that one shirt....
I wore the Prisoner. With a shaved head (yes, hair loss has struck already).
I guess she's not to be blamed here..

Her favorites are anything 11OZ. And her tonal 33 that I managed to find used in her size

My wife and I both have pieces we really love and aren't afraid of trying new stuff out. We've been together for a couple decades, and we're both stubborn and confident, so we both know neither of us can tell the other that they can't wear something or can't pull something off.

She is cool with all of the stuff I buy, as long as it isn't too much $$$ that I take directly from our account. Luckily, every single piece of clothing or music gear purchase is spent by funds acquired by selling other clothing or music gear.

I really think the only time was when I bought a pair or Yeezy Boost 350's on a whim about 5 years ago. I took them out of the box, tried them on, and immediately thought "wow these are incredibly uncomfortable pieces of trash"

We both shot each other the same look of NOPE and onto Grailed they went.

Bought a HW Dog baseball cap with a letter “D” on the front. Proudly wearing it around, and my daughter cutely asked if the D was for daddy. I said sure, why not! My wife, overhearing, muttered under her breath “more like D for dickhead”.

I always thought ecru/white jeans were a cool look. Got a pair and my partner said I look like a magician.

To which, after your 28 mile run, you should have responded “yes, I’ve got magic legs!”

That one made me snort, LOL!

How about “ so you’re done after this pair, right?”

"how are these different?" 
though as someone who has made shirts herself she appreciates the construction

My girlfriend did insist that my Lofgren combat boots and my Iron Rangers were "exactly" the same, which of course just produced probably the most insufferable "ackshullyyyyy" nerd reaction from me. Tbf I did sort of see her point, which hurt

@popvulture A family member recently said something similar to me regarding my SBG Type III "but you've already got a denim jacket that looks like that?" Safe to say they didn't quite get the difference between SBG and Lefty Overdyed

[popvulture]

"How many black denim jackets do you need?"

"All of them. I need all of them."

I hope you rolled your eyes at them!

And I like how you slyly dropped that you have a SBG type III
