Yeah, the older I get (and I’m still young) the now I see “modern” as a detriment. Take modern design. Buildings/furniture/etc that looked modern in the 60s/70s/80s now look dated because they look like they’re from the 60s/70s/80s.
If you just focus on classic designs that are proven to be timeless, your things will look timeless. If a company advertises they aren’t going with what’s always worked, that means what they’re doing isn’t going to be as good as what’s always worked.
They should probably call it “old-timey fit” for the days when people did a lot more manual labor & a lot less eating of junk/fast food.
Are you sure it just doesn’t fit because you are not modern?

@Weboh When was the last time you saw a soapbox (that was suitable to stand on)?![:thinking:](https://dj5zo597wtsux.cloudfront.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f914.png)
@macromeh @Weboh recently at an antique auction
@Weboh I mean anything “social” needs lit on fire and kicked down a hill. But other than that…
