I’m going to have to disagree with him on wearing distressed jeans

Cali the only exception and even there I bet most women aren't dying to get in a convertible. There is a reason women don't drive them like that. Convertibles = I have a nice car because I want you too look at me ie I want women to look at me. Regardless of the car.

I had a convertible (it was a chrysler), and that's exactly what happens..people stare, if you're the type of person that likes to be seen then go for it...but wasn't my style

I think a MAJOR part of this is how well you take care of your body
Outside of obvious hypebeast shyt like them fake bulletproof vests kid wear now or something
I think an older guy can pull off most outfits if his body right
Extreme case but would the Rock ever look like he “trying too hard” ? And he damn near 50
A lot of olde dudes :flabbynsick: as hell with beer guts and no definition trying wear shyt designed for ppl with sub 30 metabolisms

I agree with most of what you said. However most men know that having a nice car only appeals to other men(base model BMW vs an ///M model most women could give two fukks) in the same sense a woman knows an expensive handbag will only appeal to and be noticed by other women.

Older men drive convertibles because they tend to have more money than young dudes and the verts are always the most expensive variant of a car model.

If men wanted woman to care about their car they'd be better of in an SUV like a G Wagon or Jeep. Women love these things.

This. Be in shape and dress subtle, few if any logos, pants fitted {not tight or baggy). Your build can make damn near anything look good.

I have absolutely ZERO fashion sense :manny:
Typical outfit is some Nautica polo shirt and Levis tapered jeans. Anyone who tells you they ever seen me with Jewelry is a liar. I have owned 3 pieces of jewelry all my life. 2 bracelets and a watch. All were gifts. I haven't seen those things since i was 16.

Real spit. The biggest mistake men make getting older is allowing themselves to get fat. That will make anything you wear look crazy.

Not true. At all. Neither of my cars are convertibles and girls still roll the windows all the way down in my LC or ask if I can take the top off my Jeep. You’re speaking for yourself.

This new wave of black men who dress like this is embarrasing,since when did we start dressing exactly like Europeans?And these dudes really think they doing something too is what makes it so bad. Same dudes will try to shyt on a black woman for wearing weave while dressing like white boys. No I'm not trying to start anything I've already said my piece on this and would prefer not to argue,just had to get that off my chest because I keep seeing black dudes giving the same advice out over and over again. Teaching black men the "Safe Negro,Assimilation starter kit":respect:. I would only be caught dead dressing like this,and thats due to tradition.

I always wanted a corvette convertible,but I wouldn't want people looking at me and all inside my car so a convertible is not for me. I still give people the "What you looking at:henbron:" when they be all in my shyt now.

Exactly.

I'm 37, tall, fit and look young for my age (at least that's what everyone says :jawalrus:). I can pull off most of current fashion style although i don't care much about it :yeshrug:
