    Nothing is sexier than a man NOT trying to be sexy. Plain t-shirt & NORMAL blue jeans or t-shirt & basketball shorts is all you need. Extra sexy points if its a Rockets shirt. ;) Hollister, American Eagle, A&F...all their clothes look the same to me. I think this thread is a little too gay, even for me. :D

    I don't wear anything from Hollister. I only wear clothes from Pinemont and Antoine. Occasionally, I'll wear something from Bingle.

    I have to second what shadypink said. It's extremely unattractive to me when guys wear shirts with huge brand names across the front, like Hollister or A&F. Also annoying: sunglasses with colored lenses, plaid/colorful cargo shorts, muscle shirts, extremely baggy/tight jeans, men wearing shell necklaces...oh man.

    Wal-Mart, Target, concerts, and thrift stores. So goes my wardrobe.

    The reason why I don't wear A&F and Hollister is because they're expensive and those ripped jeans don't last.

    I think the most I've ever spent on jeans and shorts is $20. They either have to be on sale or something. All of these spoiled rich kids who buy those expensive torn, tained, painted clothes are annoying.

    The 3 stores I've gotten clothes are AE, Gap, and Aeropostle (sp?). I can save up all the money from not buying from those expensive "trendy" clothing stores and buy me a Wii or some groceries that'll last me a month.

    I mean seriously, $50 for a shirt? Damn! That can last me for at least 2-3 weeks on food!

    dudes who shop H&M, isnt it unbelievable there is no store in TEXAS. In the whole state, not houston, not even dallas, (San antonio doesnt count, they don't know about good clothing there).

    Theres H&Ms in some random places like Columbus Ohio but not in texas. ridiculous.

    also was that a real prom pic of the ooompa loompa looking dude?

    Yea I'm amazed that there still isn't an H&M here. Hell, Chicago has like 3-4 that I know of within a 20 mile radius. Anyone who's on vacation and wants to shop on the cheap, find an H&M.

    The fabulous Hennes and Mauritz, from the lovely country that gave us Ikea. dope store for guys and gals that seems to dislike the great state of Texas.

    Can you believe theres two f*cking stores in Pittsburgh, one in virginia beach, , one in freaking Delaware, two in the fashionable state that is Indiana, one in New Hampshire and dont let me get started on how many are in New Jersey, Maryland, michigan, virginia and new york. Apparently just one store in Houston or dallas is too difficult.

    There's 3 or 4 in the Philadelphia alone and it's not known to be the mecca of all things fashion.

    For those that don't know what H&M is, their clothes is similar to what you find in Express and maybe a Club Monaco but at Gap prices. Quality is damn good as well.

    When I went to Houston (Jan 2006) I bought clothes in Kohls, they have good things, and reasonable prices.

    I dont mind which brand im using it.

    Well yeah, the rich kids, the juniors and the wannabe persons that want to be cool like buying this brands and want to be estadounidenses (because all mexican people are american, because we live in the AMERICA CONTINENT :D ), but these are small groups, so not all mexico thinks this way.
