ISO men's dress shoes that are appropriate with the most conservative business attire but that will stand up to New England winters and walking-intensive public transportation commutes without wrecking my feet. Bonus if there's a retailer out there that has juicy post-Xmas discounts.

I remember that there used to be a website, where a guy asked what he should wear, and the community voted on his outfit - and he actually put it on. Every day. But, dang, I don't remember what the site was called and what URL it used. Can you help out?

I recently moved to St. Louis into a non-ghetto but decidedly urban area. I've noticed that an enormous amount of the teenage/young adult boys in the area wear simple, plain white t-shirts. No logos whatsoever. They're long, down to the knees often, but that's the style for all shirts. Definitely quite larger than what would come in a package of hanes. I'd say something nearing a majority of the boys seen out and about here are dressed this way. I passed by a shop a few blocks from my house that had a large sign in the window which read, "White Tees xx-xxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxx". I'm extremely curious what the deal is! I thought maybe it was some sort of school dress-code, but some of the boys are too old to be in school. Also the girls don't do the white t-shirts at all. So anyways, anybody know if it means something? Or is it some new fashion? A function of poverty? Maybe rebellion against branding? That'd be cool!
