Good thread, couple personal thoughts
-Boat shoes should not be worn unless your on the taller side. I have a co-worker about 5'6" and probably has a size 8 shoe and boat shoes are a terrible look on him. Talk about a way to make someone small look smaller. If you're 6'1" and have a model build, wear them all day.
-I disagree on sneakers to an extent. They are pretty much a go to with shorts for me and I wear them plenty with jeans as well. It really depends on the circumstance though but girls at least in the U.S. aren't looking down on you if you have good style with sneakers.

On the interweb, there is a shed loads of stuff on mens fashion. But the thing is, most of this stuff seem to be about guys in suits.
Nice post, it was a good read. A quick question though: I am particularly interested in rebel style, where can I find pictures of guys displaying this identity?

Guessing he means "rough around the edges" look, e.g. Russel Brand, Colin Ferrel, etc.
I think Russell Brand, if anything goes around someone into indie, rock music etc.
I came across this article:
http://www.girlschase.com/content/9-male...-you-women
Based on that, 'Rebel' was something I identified with and was trying to find clothing to go with that. Doing a search, everything seem to revolve around James Dean.

^ In the picture above, the dude in the black t-shirt has poor style. The dude next to him (looks like the leader) is bit on the overweight side. The dude next to him with the bandana, you can't see him too well and does look a bit fat.
The dude furthest to the right, looks like he has got it everything right. He is lean and has clothing which fits him perfectly.
I bet very few dudes would be willing to go out dressed like this.because they prefer to be conservative.

Much of what I see in these mens fashion blogs is guys in preppy suits, I haven't seen too many where the emphasis is all on casual wear.

The bottom of your pants should touch the top of your shoes. The length of your pants should have a half-no break at your shoes, i.e there should not be a puddle of material pooling around your shoes. A shorter hem allows your pants to drape cleanly, which creates a more streamlined silhouette, while also giving the appearance of elongated height. As such tailor your pants to hit the top of your shoes rather than tailoring them to the heel.
This is something I was not aware of, I have been going around with a pool of material around shoes for years and years. Something to sort out. Thanks.

Again, thanks for the thread. It's well done.
