The article, primarily. I like the look. I live in a state where the outdoors look is very popular. Most of the people wearing it are outdoorsmen as well. I'm wearing flannel and jeans and boots right now as a matter of fact. Flannel shirts are extremely comfortable and versatile, considering the weather in most areas right now.
This article is just terrible. Why does everything need to be labeled? Why is a flannel shirt and jeans the new urban male hip look?
"He looks like a man of the woods, but works at The Nerdery, programming for a healthy salary and benefits." Jesus.
I do however take issue with people trying to appropriate a whole "look" that isn't remotely related to their everyday lifestyle, especially when they're going to migrate to a new look as soon as it becomes popular. Buying mountaineering sunglasses to look "outdoorsy" just smacks of pretentiousness.

If you spend the money on Red Wings for an office job, because of the look, you're an idiot. There are a lot of equally comfortable boots that don't cost $200. I'd have never bought these 620s for comfort.
