At what age does youthful fashion end

When do you give up on following trends & memes

After a certain age are you relegated to dadcore? Is dadcore always dadcore or does it follow trends?

Is dadcore actually anything that isn't contemporary streetwear like /fa/ seems to think

Depends on income and other expendures.
I had severe money problems between 20ish and 25ish, so buying new clothing wasn't really something I did. Hence my late start at dressing like a non teenager.
But kids drain your money faster than you wish. Especially on clothing they grow out of each season.

That's pretty much the absolute bottom line when it comes to 'quality' shoes. You'll be hard pressed to find any < 300 euro.

meme fashion will never end, as long as you're confident enough to wear it anywhere.

everyone at my work (software testing) wears illfitting suits and shit because we have a semi formal dress code. i wear sweaters and cardigans all day erryday

Show me some good quality dadcore shoes for less. You have Church's and Loake that sell for slightly less than 300 euro, but there are far better options for slightly higher prices.

Just because you're a cheap piece of shit who can't afford any good shoes doesn't mean you have to fool yourself into thinking your $5 shoes from McDonalds are high quality.

Those are bretty gud
It depends on what you define as quality and what style and all that jazz.
I also got some AE McAllisters on ebay for like $45 so it isn't impossible.
If you take good care of your shoes, they will last a while.


By the way, how close does belt and shoe color have to be? I just got an orion belt which I thought would be the same color (walnut I believe) but it is kinda red compared to the shoes.
Just a general question.

But quality is more than just durability. Hell, durability isn't always even a criteria for quality, as in the case of cashmere vs regular wool. It's also about things like how the leather will age, and you won't find brands that offer shoes that use material from good tanneries for a low price.

If people could buy shoes that were of the same quality as brand like Carmina, Enzo Bonafé, Gaziano&Girling etc. for half the price, they'd be world-known by now.

>>8773434
>By the way, how close does belt and shoe color have to be?

They don't necessarily have to match in shades, just make sure the colour is the same.

It's definitely harder to drop $$$ on clothes when you have a family. It's just harder to justify to your spouse. Fortunately I managed to cop Qasa triple blacks anyway.

Yes, you will. I know plenty of fathers (and mothers, too) we spend enormous amounts of money on clothes each year. Think bespoke suits for a minimum of 3500 euro/piece and MTO shoes for 1000 euro/pair. It just depends on how much money you make and how much you're able to save up and spend on your family too, because family should always come first.
