Last one I had bookmarked sold last week :(

For the peeps with the silent beanies from this or past season, did you tuck or take off the long tag? I'm looking at the seams and it looks like f I take out the seams that attach the elongated tag it may damage the integrity of the beanie (double layer cotton one). Hmmm.

Related to this, are there any plebe brands that have long sweaters/shirts/tees? not as long as to the knees maybe, but well past the waist

I have been seriously disappointed in schneider's construction: after probably 10 wears with a belt, the belt hooks on my pants were falling off- and now, after maybe 15 wears, some of the seams are coming apart. It is sad, and I am unsure if this is a common problem, or jus a random occurrence.

a few weeks ago i asked about fingerless knit gloves and i purchased some barbour gloves but I don't like how long the fingers holes are on it. they go too far - i want something shorter. any recommendations for knit fingerless gloves in black or grey that have short finger holes...or, alternatively, an arm warmer? not looking to spend too much but not looking for something super cheap either. looking to spend less than $50, preferably ~$30.

It feels like the new streetwear guy is about to offer me a mint julep.

Where do you NYC/Brooklyn guys get you hair cut?

I havent cut my hair in two years, going in for a snip tomorrow. I always went to this one dude at Astor Hair, but in retrospect he wasn't that great.


Dickson's Hairshop on the LES is cool. But you have to book in advance because it's tiny and they fill up quick. I used to go there regularly. If you're in Williamsburg the Beehive is good. Staff is nice.

Those are on the pricier end. Well, not so pricy for NYC. They're like $40. It's not like going to Bumble&Bumble. Now I go to George's 2 in Park Slope because it's $12 and as long as I tell the guy everything to do it's just as good as any other spot I've been to.

Never liked Astor. Always felt like their top priority was getting you out of there as quickly as possible.

I can't tell if fuuma is being sarcastic but I hope he is. I was really disappointed by the CdG show.
