If I want clothes I'll go to eBay. The last thing I want when I'm buying clothes is some annoying hipster dressed in rolled up skinny jeans following me around the store pretending he's interested in how my day's going. General Pants Co in Rundle Mall is the worst for this by far. Even when you tell them you just want to be left alone they still hang around.

So there's a General Pants in Rundle Mall now ?? Far out I knew there was one on Chappel Street in Melbourne.

Went shopping in the city for shoes for the first time in over a year last week. Platypus was alright as the dude working there was under the pump and left me alone.

And I'm fairly stuck in my ways and opinionated, and my opinion is that 99% of male fashion today is for hipsters, queers and wiggers

Same. Clothes suck these days.

Its pretty much David Jones for all my casual clothes.

Youthworks why u close down in Rundle Mall.

I'm a bit of a shoe nazi in places like that. Anyone on here who knows me will back that up. A guy in Platypus tried to give me the lowdown on Vans once and I launched into a bit if a rant - "I've been wearing Vans since the 80's when they were made in America and you could only order them through ads in Thrasher Mag....blah blah blah".

I needed a new pair of Onitsukas. Couldn't make up my mind so will have to buy the other pair I was considering too :(

I've always wanted a pair of those chequered Vans. I fear I may be too old now. Will get a pair for my 2 year old son however.

I'm approaching 45 and I still wear them. Set yourself free.

Vans have continually changed their shoe boxes over the years and this movie was made in 1982. Check out the box Spicoli takes his Vans out of in the clip and check the photo of this pair of Vans of mine. These are my pride and joy. They only come out for weddings :)

I love the pair Eric Stoltz is wearing.

When I'm buying shoes for comfort, I get New Balance. I have wide feet and they have wide shoes.

Otherwise I'm a big fan of Dunlop Volleys (12 pairs, 10 limited edition + green/blue) as well as Doc Martens (5 pairs).

The clothes for 'men' you see on all those ads for that rash of online clothing stores are appalling.

If I wanted to wear three-quarter pants, figure-hugging button-up shirts and nothing but open shoes I'd go back in time and raid the wardrobe of the red-headed monster from Sex And The City.
