Yah hopefully they are still trying to sell them in size 7 when I get some moneies.

I'll never buy american apparel shirts again. Like rye, I was hooked on their cheap v-necks; I have now seen the light and the light's name is alt apparel pima cotton.

Where do you get yours from? It's about time I restock on basics.

$15/shirt from Loehmann's. 99% of that place is an unholy matrimony of Nord Rack and Off 5th but for whatever reason they have an ample selection of AA. Quite a few l/s crews, henleys, etc. in black, grey, white. I stocked up. For the MC crowd, there was an awful lot of deep discount Cucinelli, not that anyone here would be interested in half-zip cashmere sweaters or l/s cashmere polos.

Damn dude, this is the exact sauce I've used in all my thai cooking. Best **** ever, nice and hot.

I think I'm up to 20. Most wear these days is on the 2268s, Gordon Rush boots, and my blue suede Loakes. Once or twice a week I wear one of my dress shoes. I need to sell/trash a bunch of my ****.

hot sauce doesn't exist in japan, they can't handle anything that resembles spicy

sweet+spicy is the best combo ever. Luckily Korean fried chicken is that. Too bad it's pretty unhealthy. Funny **** is that whenever I go to any Korean place with spicy food, I'm eating as much as I can and the old ajumma will always ask if I will be ok and not die because they think white dudes can't eat anything spicy.

Unsurprisingly I like uniqlo's shirts the best. Comfortable and fit well.

I bought a few Uniqlo shirts but have found them to be really boxy and long. They're comfy but I'd have to have them tailored if I was wearing them untucked instead of as undershirts. Alt fits like AA but is far more comfortable.

All this talk of food is making me want some pho for dinner

If Alt Apparel was longer, it'd be great. Unfortunately due to my height, I'm stuck with AA.

Is there really that much of a difference? It feels the same to me.

They're short and slim. Probably something to do with your proportions, are you like a large because of broad shoulders or something?

 

[phoenixrecon]

speaking of t shirts. anyone still make vintage ts that fit like they did in the 50s/ 60s?

Yeah I agree, only boxy if you size up one. Depending on the type of shirt, they can be skin tight on me.

i need to try some alt apparel t's. I have never really found the perfect basic (& inexpensive) t-shirt for me. The aa tri-blend in a size small fits me really well but its only available in crew-neck and the stupid deep-v.
