I am 26 and I still shop at fucking hot topic because they are the only store that sells metal band shirts.

I feel like a angsty teenager. I feel like I am so limited in what I can wear. Like for the last 10 years, my entire wardrobe consists of metal band shirts, jeans and hoodies with black sneakers or boots.

What the fuck are my other options? My friend said that I dress like some angsty teenage faggot stuck in metal phase. Which is ironic because he wears skinny jeans, checkered shirts and man buns all the time.

FUCK THIS!!! How is it that I feel so limited? I hate flashy stuff. I like... tactical and effective clothing. Don't like being vulnerable.

I am also a black male which kinda sorta limits me in what I can wear as well. That's probably just in my mind though.

I also had your problem, always wore black clothing and band shirts. I work a job where you can dress very casual but still have to look presentable. So I decided to buy some green and other earthy colored shirts and cardigans just to mix it up.

I think grey tones look great with black skin, so try to blend some of that into your wardrobe.

At the office I wear chinos (navy, khaki, cream usually) with a tucked in dress shirt, a nice leather belt and matching leather dress shoes, open types. In the colder months, I swap the chinos for corduroy sometimes, but not very often.
If there's an occasion where I need to wear a suit, I wear closed oxford leather shoes.
I generally avoid suede leather shoes because it stains and it's a pain in the ass to maintain.

When I'm not in the office I wear slim jeans (e.g. Levi's 511) with sweaters, hoodies or casual shirts untucked (which are different from my dress shirts). I sometimes swap the jeans for one of my chinos, but not very often.
Simple white sneakers go well with everything here, and if you're black that look even better because of the contrast. Avoid big bulky shoes, go simple and white.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for the tips.

This may sound strange but how do you go about making your own style I guess?

I have ideas in my head what I want to wear but I often worry about it being goofy.

I really like trapper hats and those Russian hats(forget what they are called). I like medium sized leather coats too and jeans. And maybe some kind of boot.

Could that work and not look goofy? I honestly just don't want to look stupid which is my biggest fear. This is why I don't really experiment.

experience mostly. choose some simple smart casual / casual basics, see which ones you like, which ones look good on you, what sort of colors fit you etc.

Oh no I don't want to go there, I'm too autistic to try and make my own unique thing.
I just want to blend in and to never allow anyone to say I'm poorly dressed, I don't want any drama.

Nice brown shoes, brown belt, collared shirt. Khaki's or blue jeans. schlick that hair back. Done.
(one of us, one of us...)

Not sure about how much money you have, but I can assume if you are shopping at Hot Topic, you probably aren't well off. Take a look at the styles All Saints offers, although they are pricy and try to mimic that through cheaper brands like H&M.

Good color slim fit button up shirts. Bolo ties. Jeans. Boots.

It's really just a straight step-up from what you currently wear, without selling out.

Just try to think of things you like, and obtain those things.

About being a black male: never be pressured into your entire identity about being a black male. Never do that thing where you become super proud to be black and resent all of your friends because you just suddenly realized you were black and that it should absorb every part of your being.

Don't fall for Jewish tricks.

wear black, but the difference is in the shape of your clothing.

Sounds like you should look into milsurp. Go visit varusteleka, you can wear black merino t-shirts, used army cargo pants and combat boots.
This seems like the logical next step in advancing your style. The metal shirts should go well with that.

Honestly watch some movies ffs

Might want to check out the techwear threads on this board. You don't have to go full autismo, but it seems like a natural progression from what you like to wear now.

Start with basic shit like in the sticky or that infographic that keeps getting posted. Plain tshirts instead of logos, sweaters instead of hoodies, etc. Build a foundation you can experiment from one piece at a time, like bundeshwer parkas maybe
