    is wearing a shirt without an undershirt improper for the golden era?

    I wear A-shirts (tank style) undershirts and must agree that an undershirt does help to protect your dress shirt. During the golden era, this was the preferred style of undershirt. Fortunately, I do not sweat profusely so the lack of underarm coverage is not a problem. Too, as long as the...

    do you ever go to restaurants by yourself?

    I used to do it occasionally but find that I rarely do now that I am no longer a youngster. If I am out of town, I feel much more comfortable doing so because it is highly unlikely that I will see someone that I know.

    Wifebeaters?

    I just watched this movie again and completely agree. Newman is middle-aged but pulls off the look without a hitch. Whether he is wearing one as an undershirt or sitting in bed just wearing the athletic undershirt and a fedora, he wears it well and makes it look great.

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    No matter how hard I try, and I have been trying for over 30 years, I just cannot watch [I]Gone With the Wind[I] all the way through. It just bores me to death. It is even harder to admit this since I live in Atlanta.

    Wifebeaters?

    This statement made me realize that I had been going against what the "mainstream" thinks for over 30 years. So far, I have been able to survive and have been very comfortable doing so. I guess it goes to show that the "mainstream" is not always correct.

    Why Do You "Dress Up"?

    When I first started in banking over 20 years ago it was required that you were a suit and tie. That has changed significantly over the years and our dresscode is now business casual. However, I still wear a suit everyday. It does affect my attitude and make me feel more professional. On the...

    Wifebeaters?

    Quite surprised by the number of wearers in the UK. I thought it that in the UK it was generally frowned upon to wear them.

    Where Do You Think Men Should Shave?

    Cleanshaven here, too. Since I only have about ten chest hairs, no need to shave there. LOL

    Which decade is the worst in terms of style?

    I would have to say beginning in the 1980's and then going downhill since that time. Can't quite remember when people thought it was okay to wear a sweat suit anywhere in public, but that was atrocious. Our dress code at work is business casual, although I still wear a suit and tie everyday...

    Where did your user name come from??

    It is a combination of part of the name of the street that I live and part of the name of the city that I live in. My creative juices were not flowing at the time.

    Wifebeaters?

    Give the ribbed cotton ones a try, I believe that you will like them. I can tell I noticeable difference between them and the regular, smooth cotton ones. I also wear them under a t-shirt. My A-shirts are all size small since I am not a very big guy and I wear a large size t-shirt, so it is...

    Help with easily see through white button down shirts...what to wear under?

    I never would have guessed that garbo's referred to trashmen. They seem to be called all sorts of names but I have always referred to them as athletic undershirts or A-shirts. Some people call them sleeveless T's but I never got that since there is no T shape.

    Wallets

    When wearing a suit (everyday for work), I carry my wallet in my suit jacket pocket. Have always found Bosca to be very nice. They are a bit pricey but tend to last.

    Wifebeaters?

    I am very similar to this. The only time that I am not wearing a collared shirt when I am outside the house is while I am working in the yard. Then, I will have on a t-shirt with an A-shirt underneath. Never have felt comfortable going shirtless (even inside the house), so at the least I always...
