While I agree this guy looks ridiculous and red pants are a no go, Express is a relatively cheap store for good form fitting clothes. Style.

It's a blue t-shirt and I was wearing one of the pair of pants I bought. (Why else would I show my legs? Think it through!)

And I did vacuum and clean my place later. (Photo is 2-3 days old now) I am not going to clean those shoes though. They're basically considered disposable dance shoes.

The ones that look 'tan'/gray are actually white with black stripes. (Tacky and that's why I got it)

Express sizes their clothing exclusively for manlettes.

I'm convinced that I need to open my own retail clothing/shoe store for tall, thin men. Ordering clothes online at full price is getting a bit old.

I made the mistake of buying a $200 fake-leather jacket at Express once. It was hanging in the window of the "men's" section (which is about 1/10th the size of the women's section, but I digress...) and looked pretty nice. The material was very nice, the fit was great, and overall it was a nice jacket...

...until it ripped along a perforated part of the body. Pretty much just a design flaw. I only wore it about 10 times, never abused it, never washed it, etc. I had only owned it for a few months, and I went back to the store with the jacket and explained what happened. They basically told me that I would have to ship it out to their returns / repair center, pay for the shipping, and wait for them to deem whether it was customer abuse or a freak circumstance. They said the turn-around time is usually 4-6 weeks. If they deemed that it was customer abuse, they would charge me for another one and ship it out to me. I asked to speak to the manager and got the same answer.

I told them to forget it. $200 or not, it's not worth the time and effort. That was the first and last time I ever did business with them. It's still sitting in the trunk of my car. I'm not really sure what I want to do with it.

How can a company that charges so much for "high-end" clothes be so cheap? Sears, JC Penny, Kohls, etc. all have excellent return policies, and they all carry reasonably-priced clothes.

Because there's a noticable difference in quality in the store lines. Sure, your pair of dockers will be a few bucks less at Kohls than Macy's (if they carry the same line) but get a $99 cashmere sweater from Kohl's, and compare it to a cashmere sweater from Express after a few washes of each, and you'll see why there is a price difference.

But then again, Express has these ridiculous clearance sales, so the price difference isn't that big if you're willing to wait for late season clothes.

Funny you say that. I buy button down shirts from there because of the fact they are so thin around the torso. I can actually buy the large from there and have it fit my neck/shoulders but the arms and torso section are not too baggy because they are thing.

Button downs suck for me because my neck/shoulders essentially are a Large while the rest is a medium. Basically everything always looks baggy one me around the arms and waist.
