Too bad that instead of a pot leaf on their pea coats, they’d put an ounce of pot in the pea coat’s pocket.

That’s actually a good idea, JP, although I don’t care enough about my shoes to go through the hassle. The same hassle that people go through to wear douchetastic hipster sunglasses :)

Bill-

Some folks (not me) actually line the inside of the leg opening with plain ol’ masking tape to prevent color transfer to their footwear.

Just make sure it’s out of sight– don’t want to look like a tool and someone takes your picture.

You could end up flogged on a very cool blog.

Re the turn-ups, I assume those are to prevent indigo-transfer to the Aldens. If you wear rigid denim turned down, over a pair of leather shoes that shade, they very quickly acquire blue shadowy highlights. That unfortunately are utterly indelible. He can’t afford to get the jeans on the Aldens, and to my mind this says they are the wrong shoes for the outfit. Dark sneakers and turn down the cuffs, much better. The matte-finish ArmorAll cloths nicely remove blue transfer from white vulcanization.

JP,

I’m not making a point about this guy so much as the issue that people are talking about.

But, about this guy–yeah he looks like a tool.

I respectfully disagree.

The guy is wearing a jacket, jeans, and boots- all everyday garb. It’s completely appropriate. Lots of people wear Barbour as their staple outerwear because it’s quality stuff.

Let’s all get off this already. By your own words- your condemnation seems to be more about the wearer, than the clothes.
