Considering two of the mnpr'ers haven't got a hair on their heads, I'd say not!

Although I do quite fancy a nice cardy like the one on the right 🙂

I'm afraid you'll find the check shirt is far more important that the axe and the logpile.

weird advert, they're all no-bodies, and then Mr Posh turns up, are like we supposed to believe they all know him, like he's their friend. And those girls? If I was Mrs Posh I'd be like "hello, who are these girls"

strange...

They look like Fleet Foxes, or The Acorn.

The Acorn, not far off, either...

Surely the beardy****hats all live in Hoxton and work in marketing, they just dress like they're backwoodsmen.

I'm intrigued by the carabiner. Is that belt loop rated? Do people use him as a sport route?

I used to climb with someone who had an accident which resembles that remark.

Look at my red trousers *contains sweary words

Just for full clarity, I do not appear in that blog. However, there's a girl in one of the photos I am sure that I [i]knew[/i] some years ago.

I and six others have been chopping trees down all week, admittedly at the side of the road, not in a forest, and none of us look remotely as cool as those hipsters.

Wow, last time anybody classed me as fashionable was 1993. Now its good to see the world has caught back up with me. Beard, check. Outdoor gear - moon climbing wool jumper, check. Scruffy hair - check, since about 1985. Whiskey drinker, check, prefer a tipple of bourbon to the scotch but still check. I hate being fashionable. Right, going to the barbers, catch ya laters.

Its not just the beard fellas. To be the true fashion cliche, you must have the "undercut" haircut to go with it.

Here ya go

Oh my dress sense has a name now!
Brilliant.

sipping craft beer at an underground bar with his sad eyes and permanently unrealised dream of living in an isolated woodland shack.

😀
I'm not as fussy as those in the Guardian article; I have a crew cut, I trim my beard when I can be bothered. Having said that, I have a penchant for expensive raw selvedge denim, Redwing boots and plaid shirts. I think I need a parka now though.....
