Men dressing too young for their age. (legs, shave, fashion)

[dizzybint]

Now by this I dont mean a man keeping himself nice and fashionable, I mean the ones who want to be Peter Pan's forever... theres one down our pub , he s overweight but around fifty, and he cant wait for the sun to shine to get out his three quarter length gonky looking wide shorts.. his white socks with a bright brand sticker and matching white trainers.. that look as if their just out the box for the occassion.. he prances up and down the pub going to the loo about five time to make sure the females in the joint get a full view of his creation... Not to mention his cutaway t shirt. emblazzoned with some daft slogan about being IT or SEXY.... then as someone wafts in the door he feels a draught even in high temperatures... but just enough so that he can swirl his imitation cashmere gold jumper round his back tying it in a slack knot at the front..... my drink now goes everywhere and I have to leave Oh near forgot, his bright yellow baseball cap is lying on the bar.... pray someone drops a drink on it before he leaves..

I guess I'm guilty of this.
I'm 21, but I dress like a teen from the mid-90s, with stuff like ripped, baggy jeans, graphic tees, flannel jackets, baseball caps (preferably backwards), trainers like Nike or Converse. It doesn't help that I have a baby face either, without my facial hair I'd probably get mistaken for 15-16.
Not as bad as when I was in High School, and looked like I walked out of a bad 80s film with my fluorescent coloured jeans and chequered arm warmers.

I think wearing weird dress should be avoided else than this anyone can wear anything, you can bound them for wearing as per your fashion sense.

I still don't get the wearing a baseball cap backwards look.

[dizzybint]

Same here. In New England that is standard attire in any sports bar or tavern.

I've seen my share of 40+ year old men sporting the too tight Abercrombie/Hollister t-shirts and the faux-hawks. It would be nice if they could find a way to split the diffference between dad-jeans with tucked in polos and Affliction tees and backwards ball caps. Somewhere there is a middle ground.

I guess if they shave their chest and lift a few weights they are entitled to dress like a kid.

That look is good on no one, young or old.

Flip flops and surfer shorts on flabby 50+ year old men who haven't been to the beach in ten years. Gross. Pasty white legs, long disgusting toenails, and edema lines on their legs from where their socks had been a few hours earlier.
