It was an analogy.

That makes no sense. Those are very different activities with different requirements.Ken in Oklahoma wrote: ↑Thu Jun 15, 2017 10:34 amPretending for the moment that traditional western riding gear and mountain biking gear are roughly functionally equivalent, I would choose the traditional riding gear in a sense to acknowledge a bygone place and time.

I did not find your comparison analogous.

LaDonna ought me 3 new western shirts at Atwoods today so I guess I'll be cool now.Ken in Oklahoma wrote: ↑Thu Jun 15, 2017 10:34 amI suggest that all of those 'trying to look cool' aren't necessarily trying to look cool. For example, if I were invited to go horseback riding in the mountains I would likely choose to wear western gear in lieu of, say, modern mountain biking gear. Why? Pretending for the moment that traditional western riding gear and mountain biking gear are roughly functionally equivalent, I would choose the traditional riding gear in a sense to acknowledge a bygone place and time.

Coolness is mystifying. You either have it or you don't. Having it isn't entirely straightforward either. Being cool means breaking the rules, but only so much. so my coolness will be breaking the rules and wear vintage but yet functional clothing on my classic and very cool bike.

I purposely ignore coolness.
Smoking cigarettes is cool.
Smoking Light cigarettes is being cool with the proper protection.
