Do you actually work for Parcel Force? Because I'm not sure I'd accept a parcel from a man that looks homeless. And in reality, achieving a tramp look is less about the clothes you wear and more about how dirty you are.
I mean, the other day I saw a homeless guy wearing an almost identical getup to Marty McFly.

I don't work for postal force and keep myself rather clean. My mate said about it though, I was cotching back and he said I was on my way to a hobo get up, so I donned my hat and completed the look.

Edited:

I just wanted to see what you guys' reaction would be to the idea of wearing heavy boots. They look like these, but black instead of tan



I got them for work because I was bored of buying nice £50 pair of shoes for them to get ruined whilst working. These only cost £15.

All I see is little kids and teenagers wearing Vans. I rarely ever see them wear Converse. Though your experience may vary.

I see people from the age of 6-26 wearing both vans and converses.

[Doozle]

I think when you reach the age of about 20 (like myself) the only people who seem to wear converse are younger kids or girls.

To be honest, I think only girls should wear them.

[ChestyMcGee]

all should wear boots and shoes like real men. not trainers

[Glitch360]

Converse/Vans are pretty ugly shoes. I don't see how anybody can like them, they're butt ugly

My other shoes are trainers. Stan Smiths. I haven't bought trainers other than Adidas in years (not counting plimsolls)

[ChestyMcGee]

sometimes i wear vans but only when i am wearing tan chinos that don't go with boots (but i haven't worn them for a long time now because the whole look is getting way overdone and it makes me feel like a 15 year old)

[MisterSjeiks]

Alright winter, i'm ready!

[Revenge 000]

Yo so I bought some "stretch-slim" maroon jeans at Topman today, I want some white shoes to go with them. What shoes can I get that fill this criteria?

Similar to converse in shape (to accomodate for my clown feet)
Leather, or any warm material
Non-waferthin soles
£60 or under

Anything?

[Retardation]

[Megafan]

I honestly can't remember the last time I've worn jeans or Vans.

[danielplazzy]

I hate chinos

It's like wearing dress pants casually

Then again, I've never actually worn them. This is purely based on what I've read online

[Lord of Ears]

i have two pairs of jeans that i wear all the time because i'm poor and irish

[danielplazzy]

I have like 4 pairs of jeans that all fit like shit, or so I assume

The crotch always sticks up like I have a boner

[Ryz0]

yea or no?

[D3TBS]

Alright, so according to my experience on the shoes, people (our age) wear either converse, vans, skate shoes in general, those timberland tanned boots, some mountain/walking shoes, like this



which is fucking ugly and I dont know why people wear it, maybe it's because they're comfortable who knows.

Anyways, Converse, Vans, Timberland tanned boots, skate shoes. To me there's always a bit of a hate against these brands, because thats all I see and everytime I buy a pair of shoes, it's not one of those (because my parents are asian and they dont want to buy me €60 vans or shit, unless theyre on sale)
But it also has to do with this "trend" and hipster and mainstream thing. Perhaps I'm too much of a hipster to call myself a hipster

Classic, as long as whatever else your wearing goes with it.

Obvious bias but eh. Guy on top far right still looks stupid, second to left also looks ridiculous. Second to right looks cool though, pulling off the vest and blazer with class.

[ChestyMcGee]

i must take a leaf out of second to the right's book

[Lord of Ears]

i like mr. top left's struttin style

center is also pretty well dressed

[Zukriuchen]

the only one who looks completely ridiculous is the second, from right to left

[MakoSkyDub]

If that collage was meant to be a huge zing I really don't think it worked

The examples are mostly really bad, and the bottom row is full of young people while the top row has all older dudes, which just ruins the point you were trying to make. The people on top and bottom should be the same age, well and poorly dressed. You know, to make the quotation incorrect or funny.

[Glitch360]

The guy with the suit and the short slacks looks really stupid

How is that relevent

Those pictures were chosen because they look bad, that is what makes it a strawman
