Over the (many) years I’ve been following Unkut.com, I’ve been a sporadic commenter (at best) and since your (whirlwind) return I’ve not posted one single comment. I need to step my game up!

So here goes….

As a man over the age of 25 I must agree with you. There is nothing better than stepping out dressed like a respectable, law abiding citizen in some suede boots, a shirt and sport jacket combo with some really ignorant lyrics going through your head. Always a good feeling!

I’d love to walk around rocking the Timbo/Hoodie combo, but c’mon. There was a time and a place for that and that was a long time ago!!!

It’s always amusing when people find out about my relationship with Hip-Hop, they would never have assumed it based on appearance. Never judge a book by its cover ey…?

Anyways…. big thank you for coming back Robbie. I was worried (as were many) that you’d left us!

Good looking out on the recent interviews also! Straight dope as always!!

Peace God.

Sperry boyz up in here, up in here.

I’m 38 and I still keep it B-boy, appropriately, of course. If I’m out to dinner with the Mrs., I’ll leave the Tims at home but I’m, say at the barber shop or something, I’m not tryin’ to impress, I just want to be comfortable. As you get older you’ll have to tweak your fashion choices a little bit but be who you are…

Is it ok for a 40 year old to still walk around dressed like Extra P on the back cover of Breaking Atoms?

Yeah I dunno this sounds more like a sort of sell out retreating surrender merchant move to me than something in the spirit of CRC. Your gear selection is basically describing Jimmy Iovine.

@Chris Ward: Yes.

@Gx: Going against the grain takes more stones than towing the party line in terms of rejecting fitted hats and Nikes though.

Yes, it’s brave, but that doesn’t necessarily make it a good idea. Ppl in ww1 were brave.
A few tweaks and you could be more masta killa less Jeremy Clarkson though.

Big fan of the boaters, although they must be timberlands. I,m 42 now and baseball caps, baggy jeans, Nike trainers are all banned from my wardrobe. Lacoste and Ralph Lauren polos, that’s the look for ageing b-boys, Westwoods fashion sense is embarrassing he looks like a 90s fubu advert in the source.

what about the la coka nostra guys all guys in their 40s wearing jordans/fitteds and baggys etc they look normal enuff,and they are all real overweight guys,if they can get away with it so can we?westwoods a bad example cuz he is a gimp

@tony: Rapper dudes get a pass, obviously.

I’m on that sophisticated hobo look myself; it takes a bad bitch to know I’m dipped in Polo Lauren (simple chicks not allowed); I bop in a peacoat and an Acrylick camo beanie…right into an office. Cougars know what times it is w/me …..I’m fucking mad dudes aunties! Haha

If you think the Miami Ink reject fat whiggas from La Coka Nostra look “normal enuff” for 42 year old men then you need to re-evaluate your life.

Your gear selection is basically describing Jimmy Iovine.

This is totally wrong; Jimmy Iovine is the archetypal middle aged man in a baseball cap/shitty jeans/sneakers with a smart shirt.

He’s a lifestyle synergy disaster.

Ahh. As a member of the inaugural CRC class, I must disagree. While it’s cool to rock like Crisis said, if been doing something since forever, there’s no need to change it either. Abiding by your principles is CRC credo too. So, most of the week I’m in office business casual, and I look like the schlub but pack the hip hop encyclopedia brain. But, when it’s time to kick it, I’m on my MeyLo shit. I’m not hopping on new trends, but vintage wear still keeps it thorough. Fuck, I even drive a late 90s Lex. I don’t mind telling people that I’m stuck as fuck in the golden age of hip hop.

If your concerned how other men dress…I aint too sure about you.
