This is a topic that has no doubt come up numerous times... tee's.

It's summer time now, and usually I purchase bamboo tee's from MJK; the cut is excellent, the material is great, and the price is right. Now, unfortunately Michael has no more in stock, and I get the impression no more will be coming for a while. I wreck tee's in fairly short order as I work in a warehouse, and also train Parkour frequently -- What other brand/designer produces tee's of similar cut, quality, and price?

I purchased some Bamboo ones from a Canadian company called Jerico, and they are awful. Their "Slim" cut was so large that I could nearly fit a leg through the arm hole.

Have you seen the "Smediums" thread? There's a thread devoted to those who size between S and M in tees, search for "Smediums."

So I ordered a pair of Levi's 501xx's that were made in the USA which I believe are from 1993
here is the link to the ebay auction

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=180362709114

anyone know how these fit compared to today's 501's? I believe they'll be slimmer because of the trend at the time (which is what im looking for, i have a pair that are 33x38 but are too loose)

-Thanks

I hate thongs especially as regular attire but as I have gotten older and lazier, I have conceded to the convenience of the flip flop.

That said, I wear Old Navy because they cost a dollar and they are thongs and if you care what brand your plastic flip flops are, you are a tool.

But for real world wearability testimony, my GF wears thongs constantly on weekends and she swears old navy thongs are just as comfortable as her havianas.

So I'm looking to buy 1-2 pairs of JP's - where's the best place for a Canadian to buy them? The only places here I've seen that has them has them for $90 and doesn't even have a good selection of colour and ordering a pair off Converse.com is $21 for shipping which is still $71 USD for a pair of JP's

Any suggestions? I wish I could get them from Zappos.com, but they only let Canadians order off their canada.zappos.com which has horrible shoes and only laceless JP's

Yeah, haviana's aren't that great anyway.

They are cheap however.

Southwillard's leather one looks decent. Good for summer, especially the beach. They are pretty much needed here in queensland, with the rediculous heat.

Try Get Outside.

Question: Any good quality, cool wallet tether recommendations other than the Tanners and the ones that Self Edge carries? I want to get a workman wallet but the Tanner tethers are only 6" long, and that seems a little short to me.
