| Senior Member    | professional shopper? (men's clothes) Is there a such thing as a Professional shopper in SL ? Look, I'm a guy. In RL I go to one store, pick up a couple pants and several shirts and I'm back in my car in 30 minutes! I just spent an hour looking for men's clothes in SL and found nothing. Spending hours on the computer to shop in virtual stores for virtual clothes for an Avatar is just not my idea of fun ;-) Is there a single store were I can spend 30 minutes and come away with some decent clothes? If not, I'm seriouis about this pro shopper thing. Are there people I could pay to shop? Let them do the work so I can look good ;-) thanks. |

  | ZOMG, If my experience is any indication every woman you meet will beg to take you shopping. Either this says something about women in SL, or something about the way I dress.  |

| Senior Member | Well, I think I should start with just basic regular stuff. I haven't decided what age I am <g> , let's say between 30 and 40. Basic wardrobe: 1. typical jeans 2 couple of normal T shirts 3 maybe an aging, grown up, semi grunge look 4. maybe a neo hippie thing 5. a nice suit 6 something for visiting the tough inner city areas of SL 7 an academic professor, psychologist type look Also looking for a pony tail, van dyke beard and some northern European pale skin. thanks |

My Mood: SL Join Date: 12/2006 | Actually I am not too fond of Aitui. They put their label on the back of their suit jackets and I'm not buying clothing to advertise for them. Jeans that's acceptable. Small tags on the back of tshirts the same. But it's pretty big on Aitui |

My Mood:  | Damn, I spend so much time in the various clothing stores of SL that *I* should go into business as a professional shopper. Hey, maybe I've finally found my job on SL. But what would I charge for this sort of service? For the professor look, head to Hoorenbeek (sp?) they have everything you need along that line. For the urban look, one place I'd recommend would be Mechanism. Another would be Dutch Touch. Do NOT spend Lindens on Tshirts and jeans. You can find lots of quality stuff in that area for free. Save your Lindens for skin and hair. GO to Maschienenwerk for oodles of free jeans and T-shirts, also male shapes and some skins. For men's hair I would recommend Uncleweb or Bryce; both specialize in men's hair. Last edited by Quiplash; 11-02-2008 at 10:40 PM. |

massimo! has some good blazer sets... the one i've been enjoying lately is from Muisim (sp?). The quirky thing now when shopping is to find designers who provide every possible layer option for the shirt you want >.> | |

Muism is nice for photography clothing. I don't like how their flexi attachments move when you're walking. | |

Heaven, to keep its beauty,
cast them out, but even Hell
itself would not receive them
for fear the wicked there
might glory over them.
| Cubic Effect has awesome jeans and lovely sculplty jackets. I would recommend them very strongly-- every guy-friend I've set up in SL has loved their leather jackets.

I was just wandering around Frozen Turquoise Valentine and their menswear may be worth checking out. I know the women's stuff is nice, and the men's clothing seems to be as well. I haven't actually seen it on an av though. | |

My Mood:  SL Join Date: June 23, 2007 XBOX Leaderboard: 27th | Plunder Airship Outpost has a really cool collection of stores thats worth taking a look at. Dancien mentioned The Block and I would second that. Brogear and Sidewalk are two other stores that are worth looking at as well.
