Pink Polos have been out of style for at least a year and a half now.

Actually, 18-20 years ago. We just keep forgetting to remind the people going on the Journey Through Decades of Bad Fashion.

There was a time when I really wanted fedoras to come back.

And they did....but in the smaller brim sissy pop-looking fashion.

Now I wish they just went away.

Wait! Pink polos were in style at some point since John Hughes had a career?

When I see a guy wearing a pink polo or shirt of any kind I automatically know he is gullible and can be easily manipulated since he was easiliy convinced into wearing such an unbelievably gay item of clothing.

It's ok for you to wear pink polos if your cellmate demands it, Miyagi. Don't feel bad about it.

Sandals are unacceptable male footwear. Flip-flops can only be worn at the beach or in a communal shower. Period.

Pink shirts are great and they're only made better by the attitudes expressed in this thread. I'm willing to bet very few of you know how to dress well (especially miyagi).

You can't talk about what does and does not belong in acceptable male behavior and then be afraid of showers. Why don't you start using anti-bacterial lotion while you're at it?

There's a thread that will prove or disprove your assertion fairly easily, but really, hasnt there been enough nerd-on-nerd hatred on the boards today? Look in your heart, Guttenberg Fan Club...

By you, I don't mean the whole community. I just mean anyone who would say a man can't wear a pink shirt. A statement like that hints to a lack of fashion sense (not as in keeping up with the latest fashions, but just knowing what looks good).

I live in a very hot desert climate. The highs here are over 100 degrees just about every day from late May and through mid September. And I have to wear suits six days a week. I'll be damned if anyone is going to shame me into giving up my sandals with shorts on my one day per week I get to dress casually. But shoot me in the head if I ever throw on a pair of socks first. Not only does it look stupid, it completely defeats the point.

I only said that's where they're acceptable not that I wear them there. I'm not afraid of public showers. I actually piss on my own feet when I'm done to kill fungus causing bacteria.

Some boys/men look uber-cute in flip-flops and jeans. I'm sorry, Devin, but it's science. Also, some of you look quite nice in pink. Stop being such pansies and embrace your lovely pastel-appropriate coloring.

I'll quasi-ditto this. Basically, I don't want to see your feet unless you're capable of getting them into a condition that makes them acceptable for public display. Tragically, hippies often lack this particular skill.

Sometimes, when I'm walking, I actually look down at the ground to gauge things like steps, uneven sidewalks... scarily enough, others' feet sometimes come into view!

...or...

Devin has a foot fetish.

...or...

You don't judge people exclusively on their shoes? What kind of person are you??!?

Seriously, is this more of a climate thing? It seems like the people chiming in from New York, Washington, the Great White North, and other more temperate climes are saying no sandals. The people from warmer climates seem to disagree.

1. You can tell a lot about a person by the shoes that they wear.

2. See these two front teeth? They're fake. Tripped on an uneven sidewalk when I was 19. So, like Belethedheliel said, sometimes one has to watch the ground, esp. if one is something of a klutz. I see some feet.

3. Sometimes, people's feet are just so gross that one can't help but notice them.

Not unless they're armenians who are either Hip Hoppers or hipsters. BTW that hoodie you wore back a couple of weeks. It looked nice. Kind of reminded me of a wizard's hat what with the basic shapes on it.

I hate them too, I must admit. I'd actually widen this out and say they look terrible on men and women. Kids can get away with wearing them, I guess. Since it's been horrifically hot down here, dudes have been pounding pavement in these things like crazy. And people will slip them off in restaurants, I've noticed.

Also, for some reason, people have been wearing store-bought jean shorts a lot more. My fashion sense could use some work, but fuck - jean shorts?

When I was in 4th or 5th grade, some kid who was a year older than me walked up to me and looked at me feet for a second. Then he looked up at me and said, "I judge people by their shoes." I got a passing grade because I was wearing the new Shawn Kemp Reeboks.

Of course you judge people by their shoes. What a stupid thing to say - you judge people by what they wear, their hair, their grooming, etc.

I wear sandals when it's the summer, and I'm not at work. I don't give a shit how they look, it's a comfort thing. I don't do the cell phone clip thing though, for a few reasons. I do think it looks dumb, but it's also inconvenient for me, as I'm fat, and sit down a lot at work. So, if I had a holster, it would be constantly digging into the side of my gut, which is not a good look, or comfortable.

I've never EVER understood sandals and socks though. That seems like covering your convertible with a tarp.

Sandals and thongs are considered formal wear in Australia. It's horrible. I mentioned this in the Crocs hating thread a while back: You either have dignity and care somewhat about your appearance, or you willingly wear mandals.
I'm not buying the "I wear them because of the heat" argument either. The summers we get make yours look like a brisk and pleasant spring and you dont find me walking around in footwear made OF STRAPS!
Wearing them on the beach is obviously acceptable but keep them on the beach.
And yes, stop wearing sandals and flip flops/thongs with pants.
For the love of all that is decent.

When I was in elementary school, my parents refused to spend more than 25 bucks on a pair of shoes, as I would either grow out of them or destroy them within 3 months. Unfortunately, this meant payless shoes. I would pick out the least "I'm poor" looking pair. Once, at the beginning of the day, a little twat pointed at my feet and started shouting "You're wearing FAKE JORDANS!!!". I think I was known as "Fake Jordan Kid" for a couple of weeks. It wasn't until junior high that I thankfully discovered Chucks.

I think once you start wearing them, they are probably pretty comfortable. And you probably look forward to slipping your feet in them when you are going to non-work parts of your life. And you justify it. And your mirror only shows like thighs to head.

So, it's important to just never get to that point where you slip a pair on.

At this exact moment, I'm wearing black flip flops with pleated Dickies.

Rage on all you want, I'm still wearing my sandals without an ounce of regret and without a shred of concern over what any of you think about it. I don't have people turning away from me in fear and revulsion, well, at least not over my footwear anyway.

The hooded sweat shirt is perfect for days where it is too warm for a heavy coat and too cool for no coat or jacket at all. I don't know about climate, here in Seattle you'd think our cold and wet winters would deter sandal wearers, but alas no. Though Seattle has more than its fair share of dirty hippie douchbags.

ETA: How hot can it possibly get that you have to have your filthy feet exposed. I've traveled a lot and been to several places that were brutally hot and was always fine with Chucks or the classic old school Vans hi-top.
