In defense of the argument against quarter zips, they're really visually boring (no texture, neutral color) and they tend to pair best with other generally boring pieces of clothing like plain button-downs and khaki chinos. It might not necessarily result in a bad fit, but it kind of points people down a default skin path that I don't think achieves the results that they're looking for. I think most guys would be better served wearing a textured or patterned sweater, which holds a little more visual interest (and, from personal experience, does well with women) while being appropriate for the same contexts as a quarter zip.

Can someone, hopefully a woman, explain to me why henleys are attractive? I'm an extremely mid guy and I own a couple henleys, but in my mind they have always been just, like, shirts. Until now I had never even considered the possibility they might enhance my looks. They are just normal-ass shirts with a couple mostly extraneous buttons! Should I wear one on a first date??
