cps came in. ill put up pics if people want but they're cps lol
- totokaelo is fucking awesome, who writes a personal note on their orders, damn. - cps are very narrow/long. i have wideish feet so 42 width wise is a little bit snug, but 43 would be too long and would have to much heel slip. the leather should stretch though
|
recommendations for chesterfield coats? I know uniqlo has one but it seems a little.. too cheap.
|
snugness fixed by adjusting laces. very comfy after a few hours.

i think my next buys are gonna be:
200 - flight pants (or an alternative cropped, light summer pair of pants) ~200 - a grey pullover knit (I want this but its out of my price range) around $200. shetland or something with a fun texture that i can use in the winter
aside from that, i think the only things I really want at this point are:
200 - diemmes 400 - side zips (leaning heavily toward buttero but if yoox gives me mmm ones ill take em) - outerwear
unfortunately the only outerwear i want is either an isaora shell i should have just kopped over black friday, some kind of leather (leaning toward rick), or something from schneider. all of which are really big buys compared to all the stuff i have and would destroy my budget.
i'm "budgeting" a grand for clothes this year since my income is minimal and im already at 300 because of CPs. so idk.

Can anyone help me locate slim fit black long sleeve t-shirts with 5% elasthane?
|
Have gats (german army trainers) been discussed yet? I'm looking to get a pair from ebay and was wondering if they were worth the price.

sixstrings: rick owens?
almart: not in detail. the authentic ones are apparently just like regular sneakers but with a different aesthetic. MMM ones on the other hand are actually a designer sneaker
so depends what you define as "worth it"

I like them a lot and was mainly wondering about how durable and comfortable they are because I can easily settle for sambas. I don't have the budget currently to get the MMM version so it's either Addidas or the OG version.
|
would probably be pretty similar to sambas in terms of quality. dunno about comfort though. have you read the SF thread?

That one is listed at 243 USD. I'm assuming that is for 24,3 shirts?
|
cant be anyways, ro shirts are either cotton or rayon or silk or viscose or modal haven't seen elastene in them in my experience
also 243 is a pretty good deal as they usually retail for 300+
|
to buy this year (really to buy this spring):
supreme box logo hoodie common projects AE daltons
i want a pair of pbjs, but i just bought some flat heads and imperials a couple months ago, can't rotate that many pairs of jawnz ffffff
|
I was really close to getting daltons, they're pretty dressy for "work" boots but imo they look the best out of all the boots in that price range. I was scared off by reading AE has poor quality control.

Just because they usually go 300, doesn't mean 243 is a good deal.

lol what's so special about rick owens? looks like shit tbh, 243$ for an ill fitting homeless man looking shirt...
to each their own i guess

Its a good deal in the sense that its cheaper than you'd normally get one for. Subjectively its up to you to decide whether its worth that money.
You can make that argument about any garment though. Whats so special about strands they're not worth 300 its just shoes.
Aesthetically its valid to dislike how a garment looks. Though i'd disagree with "ill fitting". Its a very specific fit that's not for everyone, but not ill.

243 compared to 300+ is over 20% off, it's a great deal in that sense. even more so when you consider ro is one of the few designers that commands a price that's immune to holiday sales.
whether you find it worthwhile is a completely different story.

also considering TL's demographic I'd say almost everyone here shares your sentiment. great use of a passive aggressive smiley tho
|
It's weird to first recommend some Rick Owens stuff when he was just asking for a black t-shirt though, "considering TL's demographic" ;D
|
I wasn't the one that recommended it tho gr8 b8 m8
regardless, asking for a black tee is literally akin to asking for recommendations for potatoes. + Show Spoiler +If you're wondering, I am quite partial to Dutch Cream potatoes. highly recommended!
|
I wasnt sure if ro made elastane stuff but i assumed he meant something drapey. If he had said short sleeve, br pima stretch t's are very nice. Be more specific (in the piece and in a price range)
I'll try that out andy.

that feel when you aren't ballsy enough to wear your double layered silent tee in public because the rest of your wardrobe can't support it yet
