Darkness and light: /* Mall Tier / Fast Fashion */

'''Stores are categorized by tiers based on the average cost of clothing sold by the store.
'''

Please keep them alphabetized.
== Mall Tier / Fast Fashion ==
(Good for basics; t-shirts, underwear, socks, etc.)

*[http://www.americanapparel.net/ American Apparel] Has basic t-shirts in a variety of cuts. Tees fit well even for slimmer people.

*[http://www.ae.com/ American Eagle]

*[http://www.aldoshoes.com Aldo Shoes] Shoes will fall apart within a month. Only buy on SALE.

*[http://www.asos.com Asos] For the home brand quality can be variable, although as the price entails it usually isn't the best however some items do look and fit well. They also have a great and easy returns policy making it easy to try out clothes. The site also offers items from higher tier brands. Has sales on quite frequently.

*[http://cottonon.com Cotton On] Dirt cheap basics (<$10); great sales. It can be hard to find good fits here, but the upside is that you won't have wasted a lot of money if you decide you don't like something.

*[http://www.hm.com/ H&M] Recommended for very basic pieces and occasionally more stylish pieces, don't buy shoes from them.

*[http://iheartyours.com/ I Heart Yours] Sells very basic, inexpensive shoes.

*[http://www.express.com/ Express] Good for better fitting dress clothes. Brown people (Indians, Hispanics, Brazilians, etc) love it alot for some reason.

*[http://www.forever21.com/ Forever 21] Has a fuckton of items in many eclectic styles, but quality is sometimes dubious. Best to use for experimenting with styles without shelling out too much money.

*[http://www.gap.com/ Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic]

*[http://www.jcpenney.com/ JCPenney] Good place to nab Levi's jeans if you cannot find an outlet

*[http://www.macys.com/ Macy's]

*[http://www.pullandbear.com/ Pull & Bear] Similar to H&M, but more colourful.

*[http://www.ralphlauren.com/ Ralph Lauren]

*[http://www.riverisland.com River Island] Extremely similar to topman.

*[http://www.target.com Target] The Mossimo athletic fit t-shirts are decent and the Merona line is a good way to fill up a new white collar worker's wardrobe on a budget with some tailoring. If you can find what you need on the clearance racks and do your own alterations, it is very good value.

*[http://www.topman.com Topman] Similar to ASOS it tends to be hit and miss, however they do have a good returns policy and if you avoid the typical 'lad' items (usually t-shirts with pop culture references) and it should be decent. Their Stretch skinny jeans and chinos stretch out quite a bit. Suits and blazers are great looking especially considering the price.

*[http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/ Urban Outfitters]

*[http://www.zara.com/ Zara]

*[http://www.yd.com.au/ YD] Pretty low quality but useful if you are looking for small sizes.

== Low Tier ==

*[http://www.cosstores.com/ Cos]

*[http://www.everlane.com/ Everlane] Their tees are generally well liked and they claim to offer the same quality as more expensive brands but with less markup.

*[http://www.frankandoak.com/ Frank & Oak] Good quality Menswear basics for around the same prices as Uniqlo. I wouldn't recommend them for taller guys, as everything seems to run a bit short. Free shipping.

*[http://www.jcrew.com/index.jsp J. Crew] Good quality clothes with acceptable cuts. High-ish price for the quality they offer {{Citation needed}}

*[http://www.karmaloop.com/ Karmaloop] Has sales literally almost every day. Can sometimes find entry-level designer brands (e.g. Naked and Famous) at deep discount.

*[http://www.Levi.com Levi] Large selection of jeans (among other things) in a variety of colors and cuts. The quality is beginner level in their cheaper jeans not made in the USA. Levi's often has sales, so avoid buying at full retail. Avoid if you live outside NA, ridiculous markups. You may find defected Levi's jeans at Marshalls or TJ Maxx at deep discount (~$30).

*[http://www.Uniqlo.com Uniqlo] Above average quality basics, recommended for entry level.

== Middle Tier ==
*[http://www.allsaints.com/ AllSaints]

*[http://www.april77-shop.com/ April77] April77 is notable for their large selection jeans which come in many different sizes, cuts, and colors. Providing jeans with a waist size as small as 24, April77 caters to even the [http://i.imgur.com/gEObqVB.jpg skinniest of skeletors].

Colour Theory

Darkness and light: /* Starting out - The Colour Wheel */

== Starting out - The Colour Wheel ==

Learn how to use a colour wheel. I always see this thing posted but no one explains how the fuck it works so here's a 5 minute crash course.

[[File:Color_wheel.gif|left]]

This is a colour wheel. It has colours on it. Red, blue, and yellow are the primary colours. Orange, green, and violet are the secondary colours. In between these you have an infinite number of tertiary colours.

Complementary colours are the most basic of pairings. Pick any colour on the wheel and look at the colour that is directly opposite it by crossing through the centre of the wheel. Eg. the opposite of orange is blue, that means blue is the compliment to orange and vice versa. These combinations always look good together but some of them are so tired and played out (red and green) that they won't always work.

You can avoid this by doing what's called a split complementary, which is the same as a complementary but also includes the two colours right next to the complement. Eg. the split complementary of yellow is purple, violet, and blue. You can take yellow and match it with any, some, or all 3 of those colours and it will usually work.

Basically, use uncommon tertiary colours and then either complementary or split complementary combinations and you're pretty much set. Like you can actually make red and green work by using a really deep burgundy with a nice shade of olive or one of my favourites is a very burnt orange with a deep shape of navy.

P.S. None of this is set in stone but if you don't have a clue and need somewhere to start this can help a lot. It will also quickly explain to you why things like the orange and blue motif are so omnipresent in advertisements, everyone in marketing has a colour wheel. Black and white are neutral colours and go with pretty much anything but don't over use the two.
 

P.P.S. Be aware that some colors combinations don't work well because there is a contextual stigma with it. Black trousers and long sleeve white dress shirt are associated with waitstaff. Black trousers and short sleeve white dress shirts are associated with Mormans. Bright blue polo shirts and khakis are associated with Best Buy employees. Beyond specific uniforms there are more general associations. Saturated red and green is associated with Christmas so even though they are complementary they should be avoided (It is possible to wear them if you play around with different proportions, hues, shades and saturation levels.)

== Helpful Online Tools ==

http://colorschemedesigner.com/ - When you arrive to this site, direct your attention to the drop-down menu at the top right. Hover your mouse over the Colorblind option, then select "Atypical Monochromatism." Go crazy with the other options.

http://www.colourlovers.com/fashion/palettes - This site is good for inspiration and nothing more. Due to the wide mix of colors, many of these palettes do not apply well to clothing. As such you should not take it too seriously. It's not advised to use more than 2 or 3 different colors in your outfit unless you want to look like you just came from [http://i.imgur.com/HpEjpt3.jpg Tumblr].

Men's Basics

2013-05-30T01:50:05Z

Darkness and light: /* Bottoms */

New to /fa/? Come here from MFA and need to start over? Girlfriend burn your clothes? We understand.

Here's where to find some wardrobe essentials on the cheap.

If you are out of shape, pay a visit to [http://www.4chan.org/fit /fit/] and return when you have your ideal body.

This [[Introduction]] is a '''strongly recommended''' read for ''both'' genders.

== Tops ==

'''T-Shirts'''

You don't want tees that fit too close to the body nor tees that are too baggy. Be prepared to try a bunch of brands before you find a cut that fits you the best. Also try to figure out whether v-necks or crewnecks flatter you better. You still want to have both though.

*Plenty of grey, black, and white tees. These are neutral colors that can almost be worn with anything without spending too much thought and will provide solid base to expand upon. Colours such as navy, burgundy, beige and olive are good if you are confident in being able to work them into your wardrobe.

*Solid color tees in colors that suit you well. Desaturated/muted colors work well here. They generally shouldn't clash or match with your skintone. Newbies: Stick with solid color tees until you acquire a taste for what designs on a graphic shirt work.

'''Shirts (Button-downs/ups)'''

For reference, button-downs and button-ups are simply referred to as "shirt" by the majority of online stores. Other shirts will often be labelled as such, e.g. tees, polos. Fit is everything here, especially in a business environment where it is difficult to stand out.

* Amount varies greatly - if your job requires them, get more. DON'T BUY: black dress shirts, striped dress shirts. Trust us. White, light blue You can opt for solid colors to play it safe, go for a gingham, or another subtle pattern. Buy flannels sparingly.

*There is a difference between a dress shirt and a casual shirt: For a dress shirt you will be looking for something constructed with clear shoulder seams and a stiff collar. With a casual shirt you will look for something with little construction that fits loosely, perhaps a size up. A dress shirt will usually be a little longer in length with curved tails in the front and back. The length and tails help to keep the shirt seated when tucked in. A casual shirt not meant to be tucked in will usually have a straight bottom hem.

A shirt with "puffy" bunches around the waist when tucked in are cut too large around the waistline. This may indicate that shirt is oversized or the pleats at the top are too generous. Start with the proper size then look at shirts with smaller pleats or no pleats and for tapering around the waist. You may also have a tailor put in darts in the back area but this may result in a shirt that appears too well-fitted.

== Bottoms ==
'''Shorts'''

*Color: As a beginner you should avoid patterns and go for a solid colour, common colours are black, navy and khaki.

*Length: Make sure when buying shorts that they are the right length - choose pants that are above your knee but don't show off all of your legs, a good length is 3/4 or 4/5 thigh when standing.

*Fabric: Avoid denim shorts, they will always look bad unless you are named Tobias Fünke. If you are in high school they can be somewhat passable, but you must make sure they are a dark color denim and you roll them so they don't look like cut-offs

'''Pants'''

*Contrary to what your dad told you: you do not want pants that stack up on your shoes nor do you want pants that could fit your leg into each side twice over. Look for pants that are made with a taper that stop at an appropriate length(This would be your ankle). If you aren't able to find well fitting pants or are not able to afford the pair you find then you can take your pants to a tailor and get them altered to a perfect fit.

*An opposing point of view* No break or highwaters is a more modern trend but it's not for everyone. I wouldn't recommend it for taller men because anything cropped makes it appear that you can't find clothes that fit. In a formal setting go with a traditional fitment unless a modern cut is the image you want to project. With a full break, the hem of the trousers should touch the top of the shoe sole at your heel. With a half break, the hem of the trousers should be a half-inch or so above the shoe sole at the heel. With no break, the hem should just touch the shoe on the top by the lacing.

'''Jeans'''

*Jeans are very casual and shouldn't be worn anywhere other than a casual setting.

*Color: Once you have your first pair of jeans you may want to expand your collection, good starter colours are black, khahki and burgundy for the more adventurous.

*Skinny Jeans: If your waist is 28 and your legs are 32 you do not buy a pair of skinny jeans that are 28x32 because they will look too tight. Remember: Just because you can fit into it, doesn't mean it fits. However if tightness is what you're looking for it is advisable to try them on first. Some may be too small to even get on while others may be too loose.

*[[Raw Jeans]]: these cost more, but are typically of higher quality. Pre-washed/aged jeans are usually frowned upon as it tends to look really cheap, unpersonal and fake.

== Shoes ==

/fa/ usually tries to keep their shoes as simple as possible design-wise. Try to avoid irritating colorways and overly confusing lines, but then again it all boils down to taste. Just remember, less is more sometimes.

[[Sneakers]]: Sneakers are extremely versatile, and a great replacement for whatever you are wearing now(probably). They can easily be dressed up or down. A few pairs, in mute colors like white or black, should cover your wardrobe and not break the bank.

[[Boots]]: Boots are often less versatile than sneakers, but are just as vital to a wardrobe. A black and one brown pair are a good start.

For more information on these shoes and their recommended brands, please visit their respective pages.

== Outerwear ==

For the most part, fleece jackets and vests should be avoided as they are overdone, unstylish, and usually just bought because they are a cheaper alternative. Also try to avoid jackets with a lot of 'gearing' such as unnecessary belt straps, an excess of zippers, buttons, or straps, several pockets which would likely go unused, and very flashy designs in bright colors. THe style of jacket/coat which you may find yourself using is usually heavily influenced by the style you are attempting to use (i.e. You would not see a man into menswear wearing an oversized orange parka). Pictured right is an example of an /fa/ user "doing it right". Notice how the jacket drapes yet isn't too large where he looks like a child in it. Also notice how the solid coloring doesn't conflict with the outfit below it, and in fact, compliments the color and silhouette of it. The outerwear should never conflict with the outfit underneath it and should never be the main piece of an outfit, or else when you take it off, you just become basic.

When it comes to brands, don't be shy to only go for what you can afford, as outerwear can easily end up being one of the most expensive pieces in an outfit. Even though you'll find several anons who detest the name, The North Face isn't an entirely bad place to start off with outerwear, so long as you don't mind the obnoxious branding and steer clear of the over designed 20 pocket ones. To find the best, though, you may have to search if you aren't satisfied with the brands in the [[Brand Reviews]] section of the sticky as most people on /fa/ aren't too knowledgeable on the subject of what makes quality outerwear and what an appropriate price is.

Undercover makes good jackets for people with more money.

== Accessories ==

'''Watches'''

Watches should make a welcome addition to any outfit. They will need to be simple to avoid looking tacky. e.g Nato strap watch.

*Cheap: Timex Weekender, Casio F-91W

'''Hats'''
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joke A fedora is always a top priority to be stylish. Don't forget to brush up on your Japanese and wear your trench coat.]

*Is it cold out and you need to cover your ears? Wear a toque.
*Is it extremely bright and sunny and you don't want to burn your neck? Wear a hat with a brim
*Are you a teen streetwear swagfag? Wear a five panel and leave the sticker on.

If none of these apply, then you don't need a goddamn hat. So stop it you gigantic faggot.

'''Necklaces'''
*Necklaces are almost unanimously bad. Bracelets can work if the colours match and they aren't cheap looking (e.g. beads) but it is not advisable for a beginner.

'''Glasses'''
*Ray Ban
*Warby Parker
*Perry Ellis
*Super
*Oliver Peoples
*Tom Ford
*Persol
