Men of substance, men of style

Hey there, Philosophy Man. Tired of plain, classic shirts? According to this article

Plain, classic shirts just wouldn’t do for the adventurous Philosophy male.

Never fear, Philosophy Men to the rescue.

Now I'll never have to wonder what to wear to the conference again!

I wore my liar paradoxical sweatshirt ('The sentence on the back is true'/'The sentence on the front is false' - you get the idea) to a party last saturday. Some random girl decided to give me a character assasination merely based on this (and it wasn't for being too 'adventurous' either).

So while I'm all for philosophy clothing in principle, in practice it'll probably make you look like a philosopher. Hmm, I sound like Sir Humphrey.

Kenny, Australian philosophers are known for their informal approach to dressing, but I don't know how the Melbourne crowd will handle the kind of style modelled in the picture here. Possibly you should save that for UQ?

What do you think the guy in that photo is holding? Could it be the wireless remote for his Beamer presentation? It is! He's mid-talk!

It's also pretty intriguing to see that the article attributes to the designers the controversial view that 'sales' is a 'dirty four-letter word'...............

Right, that is a little surprising - they must be counting letter-types.

I don't like these fake Japanese clothes. I would say this is the proper Japanese style.
