    I think he meant it’s boring in the sense that it’s pretty damn unoriginal. This guy basically copied the standard uniform for a fashion-forward man in his 20′s. Redwings, rolex, denim, some rustic leather product…. 
    this man looks like he was dressed by the internet

    Cut the guy some slack!  He’s a 30 year old business owner/entrepreneur not an 18 year old nike/bape dickrider.
