Is 42 too old for Northface?

[FelixDeCat]

They seem to be the clothing of choice for young hipsters. But am I too old for skinny jeans and Northface this winter? '

hope not because I'm the same age and will probably be picking up a northface jacket soon.

36 and I wear a North Face jacket, drop the skinny jeans

This times a million. Could well be the worst pair of pants I've ever seen.

You think thats bad, just imagine hairy cottage cheese. D:

Those pants look like they'd destroy your balls. I can't imagine those are comfortable on a guy.

Skinny jeans are for women.

Just go with low-rise <any brand> jeans. Unless you're trying to lock away a gut with mom/dad jeans....

North Face outerwear or anything above the belt is acceptable. Just watch the news, and you'll see a bunch of 40-50 year olds wearing the stuff.

What about the purple glasses and flowery beret?

If you're over 40, you should switch to a brand that represents what's going on with your body:

Clothing styles are so important to the young. Once the young age a number (10-20) of years they look back and ask themselves WTF they were thinking!

North Face is pretty good stuff. And if you actually require good gear for hiking, skiing or whatever, buy it. I mostly consider people buying Northface stuff these days as idiots.

I don' buy Northface because I don't want to be seen in it. Mountain hardware, etc is what I buy. None of this poser crap.

My mom had an old sweater jacket that was falling apart. Like 30 years old, which was really 20 too long.

I made her pic something new. Gave her a choice between a North Face zippy or a Columbia Zippy. She liked both but settled on the Columbia.

She's 60.

She does not wear the pants or shirts or anything a hipster would like.

Because a 60 yr old woman's fashion sense totally applies here...

 

[mwtgg]

Nope.

 

[BassBomb]

I never knew the brand was big on posing and that... I have bought some of their stuff just because the quality is good and I liked the designs. That said, they're pretty overpriced in some regard.

I don't think you are too old for the brand, just ditch the hipster look

Whats it like to be horridly stupid and ignorant?

Are you good-looking? Do you get away with stupidity on a daily basis? Blonde perhaps?

 

[AznAnarchy99]

People still wear this? I thought it was a 90s thing unless you live in the frozen tundra.

 

[Buttzilla]

i wear the lighter clothing cause it's comfortable and looks nice. there's an outlet in berkeley, ca, where you buy gear for dirt cheap, especially on clearance days.

FTFY.

 

[tynopik]

macguyver wore northface into his 60s (product placement in episodes of SG1 during discovery of antarctic gate)

if it's good enough for macguyver, it's good enough for you

Or go skiing or boarding? North face is a common brand to see on the slopes, all ages...

It works on the slopes yea but Im thinking of the 90s where everyone was wearing a bubble jacket.
