I worked in men's fashion for almost a decade, and can safely say that sub was hot garbage full of lousy and unhelpful advice from people with such bad taste that I'm not convinced it isn't a troll sub.

At some point in the last few years, it felt like it had become a caricature of itself. Hard to explain, but it felt like every user was the guy that was going to bring back capes.

It's a fashion forum on a site where the stereotypical user is a fedora wearing neckbeard, plus after a point it starts to become self-selecting. Kind of like every EDC post having a knife and flashlight, when the normal person's "every day carry" is just "wallet, keys, phone".
