Men's Disco Clothes from the 70's


Whoa, man! Got a disco party to go to and nothing groovy to wear? If you're a lucky man then this suit will fit you like a glove.

Believe it or not, this genuine 1970's is UNWORN and was purchased in California back in 1975 for 75 bucks, which according to the inflation calculator makes this suit worth just under 300 bucks in today's cash. For whatever reason, the man who bought it never wore it - so it's been in storage ever since.

Check out the details on this authentic vintage 1970's polyester leisure suit here. One guy in the world is going to get incredibly lucky in this top stitched suit!

The suit is a 38 jacket with a 36" waist and 29" inseam with an additional 2" you can let out in the inseam.

1970's Vintage Jeans




Looking for 70's flares and bell bottom jeans from the disco era? Check out Dress That Man for some genuine denim fashion that is UNWORN.

1970's denim Levi's have superior fabrics in comparison to what you'll find on the racks in stores today. Those jeans are heavy duty and feel stiff until you break them in by wearing them and washing them several times, and... they wear like iron. Just ask your Dad or your Grandfather. They'll know exactly what we are talking about.

We've also got a limited number of late 60's and early 70's denim jeans. These vintage jeans also have a 14 oz heavy duty denim fabric. Plus, they are SANFORIZED meaning the fabric was specifically treated using a 1930 trademarked process to reduce shrinkage in cotton-blend fabrics to less than 1%. You can read more about the Sanforized process here.

Not all vintage jeans are created equal. One popular (made for the department store masses) from the 1970's was the "Male" brand - the fabric as well as the construction of this particular brand was made of cheaper materials and methods. Yes, there certainly are plenty of others that fall into that category of lesser quality and construction (such as many sailor type patch pocket jeans from the 70's) - but, the "Male" brand is one that stands out, as there seems to be a lot of them still out there in the vintage market.

We get a few Male brand vintage items on occasion, mainly because they were part of a large lot, but we don't actively pursue that brand any longer after receiving complaints on the quality of the construction - which we agree with!

Nothing beats the heavy duty denim in original vintage flares and bells, man!

Site Statistics 2008: DressThatMan.com

Oh, man. Speculation abounds as well as disinformation.

A website was brought to our attention recently where we were being discussed here. Which then led us to this post here - yes, one that we found rather amusing.

PayPal rotates the featured shops, and
has NEVER sent us "millions" of visitors even when we are up there in the featured space! Rest assured.

As we have disclosed on our myspace page - in 2008, we had over 1,200,000 visitors look at over 4 million pages. We should know, having total access to the server stats. Yep. We surely know, baby.

As a Vintage Clothing store for MEN only, with a major emphasis on fashion from the 70's disco era, we are quite clear
ly a specialty enterprise that is focused intensely on a niche market. One which would only be appealing to a segment of Men, women and costumers who are seriously looking specifically for original vintage clothing.

We're doing what we should be doing, man. Concentrating on funking you wild guys up. And, remaining relevant to our cause.

The fact is there are many sites out there offering speculative and erroneous information about us: Alexa, Quantcast and more. Of course, Alexa stats are driven by people who have the "Alexa to
olbar" installed, which doesn't reveal the big picture - and Quantcast... well, they'd like to sell us something and then post all of the statistics. Uh huh.

We've also noticed a recent insurgence of bullshit keyword spamming type websites with our name in them for what reason we aren't sure - other than they are desperate in trying to get hits, so they add as many "keywords"
as possible and we happen to be one of them. Yet, we haven't noticed one person arriving on our site from any of them. Hmmmm.






Having a website is much more than how many "hits" you get.
.

.
.
.
It all comes down to what you've got once they arrive.

HAPPY 2009 from DressThatMan.com!

Thanks for keeping it real and funking it up in 2008, man... it's all about you guys... and you ROCK, baby!

Onward into 2009 and we'll be hunkering down in the DressThatMan bunkers prepping more fabulous vintage clothing for you. After doing our year end inventory, we've discovered a many hidden gems in our warehouse stock. Yes! We've literally got thousands of unlisted items we'll be prepping and listing in the New Year.

Thanks for making 2008 another fantastic year at DressThatMan.com!

Men’s Vintage Clothing from DressThatMan.com


Happy Holidays, man!

It’s almost time for us to do our year end inventory, and honestly… we can get tired just thinking about it. But, some things just need to be done and that’s all part of the process as a corporation. Yet, it somehow seems cruel to be doing this between Christmas day and the New Year. This surely sets the stage for another massive blowout on New Years Eve, doesn’t it?

We’ve got thousands of items in the inventory, both on the site and off. And, since we’re talking about inventory… we’ve got NEW items arriving soon!

Yes, Sir. We’re in the process of acquiring and prepping several large lots – yes, HUNDREDS… of Men’s vintage pants (shirts and more) that will put a smile on the face of our retro loving customers. Why? Because they are different from the unworn 1970’s vintage polyester disco pants we’ve got on the site currently – many of which we had/have multiples of, and some of which remain on the site in certain styles and sizes.

Oh, boy. We’ve got major piles of vintage DEADSTOCK men’s pants coming (that’s new old vintage with the tags attached for those who don’t know) chock full of funky 1970’s disco era bell bottoms, flares and even some peg leg men’s pants from the mod 1960’s. Polyester, cotton blends and corduroys. Flare jeans, too. Warehouse items that were unsold back in the 1960’s – 1970’s. Locked away for decades and soon to be released upon the world. Super cool, man!

Most of these new pants we’ll be listing are hemmed, and some of the polyester flares and bells are for the man who needs a shorter inseam – when buying the super long unhemmed vintage polyester pants for the tall guys that we have on the site - that would, unfortunately result in your cutting off the bell/flare when getting a custom inseam. That was something that really bummed some of you guys out - we know because you told us.

So, watch for a flood of new old stock to appear in the PANTS and SHIRTS department at DressThatMan in the upcoming months of 2009. Soon, more of you will be ridin’ groovy!

We get questions... lot of 'em. Some of the questions we've had recently are:
Why don’t you have a mailing list? Yes, we get this question all of the time and well… we don’t have a mailing list because we know how much unsolicited email we each get, and quite honestly – it’s annoying. So, we don’t want to end up being categorized as junk mail or spamming. Plus, we’re always busy behind the scenes here, and if we have something to say – we’ll say it in our blog, or… you’ll see the changes on the DressThatMan.com website.

Hey guys, I ordered from you before I want (insert items list here) just charge it to my card, OK? Sorry, but we don't store customer credit card details anywhere on the website so we can't do it. We never see your credit card details as it is encrypted by the merchant processing end of our shopping cart and is handled on the back end. We believe it's safer that way NOT to have a customer database that may be compromised.

One of my favorite bands/celebrity/actors wears vintage clothing that I think they bought from DressThatMan.com - can you confirm this? We don't tell those kind of secrets! So, we can neither confirm nor deny it's true. What we can say is that we have a growing list of talented and famous people who do buy clothing from us regularly.

Got a FACEBOOK site? Yeah, we do, but… truth is we don’t hang out there at all. We’re strictly old school, man. We’re hanging in retrograde on MYSPACE here: http://www.myspace.com/manecan - yes, our mannequin has complete control of the site. He’s often unruly when he isn’t modeling.

HOT FASHION 2009

Check out these models wearing the newest creations by famed French fashion designer Pierre Cardin during the presentation of his Spring-Summer 2009 and Autumn-Winter 2009 collections. These photos were taken at his villa in Theoule sur Mer, southern France, on Monday, Oct. 6, 2008.

What the hell? Do you know anyone who actually yearns to look like a BUG and flit around town in either of these creations? While the first model appeases the photographer while striking a pose behind dark glasses as a big RED period with a pocket, that second model appears quite unhappy wearing the quilted kite with a shark fin head. Miserable perhaps due to only being able to move her arms at the elbow.

Born on July 7th, 1922... Pierre Cardin is a world famous Italian born French Fashion designer known for his avant-garde design and a love of geometric shapes. But, please Mr. Cardin... is this actually the haute couture of the future? We suspect if it was anyone BUT Pierre Cardin, these pictures would have never made fashion news. Ugh.

The 1970's has taken quite the rap for its eccentric and flashy funky fashion for years, and of course, the crew at DressThatMan.com fully promotes its revival to this day. We dig it.

Compared to this shit... the 1970's were dead ON serious, man.
