Bowling shirts?
So long story short, when I was a wee Lyon, I latched onto Guy Fieri as one of the pinnacles of masculinity. Well, it's also occurred to me that aside from wearing more button-up BBQ shirts than I can count, he also wears a lot of vintage-style bowling shirts. Any favorites?
I have no serious budget limitations other than the fact that I'd like to try not to spend more than $100 on a single shirt unless it's just that nice.

LF PNW Native Peoples (Traditional) Jewelry
I’ve been incredibly infuriated lately by the fact that every store within an hour of me that does in fact ensure the people who made the pieces they’re selling get an appropriate cut of the profit is bringing in pieces from the Southwestern or Central US tribes. If I wanted that, I would’ve gotten some when I lived in Texas.
Anyone in the PNW know where I can find local native artisans selling their works? I’m in the Spokane Valley vicinity (considering the fact that I’m across state lines).

Why would I wear a polo?
More specifically, why would I wear a polo when I could just wear a buttoned shirt? I could wear a BBQ/Aloha shirt if I needed to dress down or a nicer buttoned shirt if I needed to dress up. So why polos? Is it literally just a golfing thing?

T-boy brand recs?
I don’t like the idea of just perusing Instagram and then buying shorts or jeans and hoping they’re nice, so I come bearing the age-old question:
Brand recommendations for someone who still very much has a “womanly” figure but wants those masc cuts? This is geared more towards clothing, I have other spaces to go for binding related questions.
I’ve been interested lately in Dapper Boi, Kirrin Finch, Wildfang, and Both&, but since I haven’t actually bought from any of them I can’t be 100% sure on quality. Are those good? Are there other brands I’ve been sleeping on?

LF Mid-wash Denim Trucker Jacket
I was considering a Levi's Premium standard-cut trucker jacket but I wasn't sure if anyone had any better recommendations in the sub-$350 USD price range. Only prerequisite is that it has a back panel large enough for an appr. 8" x 10.5" patch and that I don't have to worry about doing reinforcement stitches through a layer of sherpa.
No particular rush or time frame; willing to look in-person if necessary (Spokane Valley area).

Packable Rain Ponchos?
Is it worth trying to find something nice as far as packable ponchos go? If so, any particular recommendations?
If nothing else, it’d be nice to have something tucked away in my bag for rainy days, but if I can squeeze any sort of style out of it, I’d argue it’s worth trying.

Looking for a leather rucksack
Quick ‘n dirty criteria:
- If from a brick and mortar store, must be available in the Pacific Northwest (US).
- Budget is $500 or less.
- Natural leather tones only.
I am desperately on the hunt for a solid leather rucksack, because I love the shape and style of it…but looking for them online isn’t reliable and points me to brands I’ve never heard of before with no on-site reviews to speak of, and I don’t like gambling with Etsy shops with things like this. That said, if you know one’s reliable, I’d appreciate knowing about it; it’s not like I don’t shop there ever.
