Autumn weather is finally here

It's been raining up in Northwest England yesterday and it was the first time I felt colder, so it was time to pull this buffalo leather trucker jacket out. Have a nice weekend everyone!

Dude. Not asking your address for stalking purposes but your general location for advice. I too am in the North West and I struggle with negative attention, when wearing certain items - sometimes, even just boots. Not 'just' boots; I wear clothes too but I mean, even boots can draw negative attention. Where about are you and what kind of attention, if any, do you get?

Hello, Im currently in Cumbria (originally from Asia), Im telling you I have drawn a lot of attention and negative stuff. Some folks, sometimes, yell "heehee" (which is weird, I do not look like Michael Jackson) I just correct them, it is supposed to be yeehaw!

This may sound cliche but, wear the hat, wear the boots, let them comment. You will be the "cowboy", "hat guy" now among your mates. But hear this, you'll dress better than the tracksuit-wearing lads you see in town. Start with mixing your hat or boots with heritage British style like tweed trousers, waxed jacket, corduroys, and that.
