I'm a lumbersexual and I'm OK!

What does she think a lumberjack is? Or was? 



Oh, I see her "explanation" later. Meh. She writes for the Atlantic, so she gets paid to make things up out of nothing. She sees some guys wearing butch duds, and beards, and realizes she could get a few column-inches out of over-thinking the whole affair.

In reality, guys sometimes like to dress more "manlier" than at other times. They will sometimes wear beards; either because they don't like shaving, or because they like the look. Or because their wife tells them it's handsome. Whatever.

I think you underestimate the depths the hipster can sink too.

I see Duluth as durable working man's clothes.

Unfortunately, they also follow the "pencilneck fit" trend, calling clothes for normal men "trim fit" and then not offering them in the stuff I want.

I don't think you have even looked at their website or flyers. They offer both trim fit and tradesman fit.

I see Duluth as durable working man's clothes. Yes, they are more expensive than the Rustlers at Walmart, but you get what you pay for.

Yep, being pudgy with a longer trunk, one needs those long tailed shirts.

I have the mustache, beard and flannels as well as blue jeans and boots.

The flannels and blue jeans are something I started wearing in the late 70's and have always had in the wardrobe and as soon as I could grow a beard I did. Of course I was in my late forties before I could grow it, lol.

I've always been a boots, jeans and work shirt kind of guy, mostly because that kind of clothes is what you wear when you do work. As to the beard, I'm coming up on 21 years since I've used a razor. So I've had a beard longer than most of these hipster types have had a face.
