Dude both sides are like that and are always quick to criticize the other for anything even if it isn't valid (taken out of context, etc.). American politics is a total cesspool. The sad fact is that a 3rd party will never win, that would be the only thing that would ever bring change.

Anyone who truly deeply believes in either of the 2 main parties is a fucking moron.

Oh I understand the frustration with both sides which is why my last two sentences were what they were.

The funny thing is in the world of politics both American parties are actually right of center. Just one side is a much further to the right.
There will likely never be a successful third party front runner even if people want it. The two main parties will shut it down.
I didn’t even like all of Bernie or Yang’s policies but I liked the idea of someone who essentially wasn’t really part of either party but the dnc squashed both of those hopes.

Should we expect to see flash sales like previous years? @MIKE_JE

I'd like to know this as well. I hope we can find out.

Trump 2020?

Lol we don’t want to go down this road!

Tbh when I made my comments about the western world I was more thinking about a cat like David Goggins.

C’mon you know this. Nepats been like this since day one on here.
I’m pretty independent but it amazes me how incredibly group think that ilk is.
It’s like they go right down the checklist of what they are told to believe.
There’s no sense of independent or individual thought and the great irony is they believe the side they oppose is the epitome of it.
Both sides annoy the f*ck out of me but damn that one side is so unbelievably predictably stubborn with their views even when presented with a valid argument of progressive change (or any thought of change).
Too many people would rather be right than correct. Can’t have progress that way.

Bro you’re projecting. “I’m pretty independent and both sides annoy me but let me just repeat CNN talking points”. LOL

What valid argument was presented to my statement of Beijing Lebron? You should seriously examine your life if criticizing a basketball player gets you this upset.

I’m all for the constructive criticism in this thread but the venom is unnecessary and kind of invalidates an otherwise valid commentary on the products quality and brand direction when some of y’all voice it that way. Jussayin

This is what I was exactly what I was getting at. Most of us spend some decent cash with JE and should feel heard / respected as customers...however it's pretty transparent when people start getting a little more rowdy around BF.

Thanks for the hemi link @MIKE_JE, very cool. From the photos it looks like it isn't washed - should it be expected to fit the same as the Nova? Also, does anyone have experience with how the Nova holds up over time...wondering if it ends up with a more washed look after wash cycles.

edit: to be clear, I'm referring to the Kingston; the Butte looks to be washed

I've put my Nova through a few times (and once through the dryer on low heat.. I know, I know) and I haven't noticed the color change at all. It just gets a bit more of a fuzzy texture so far. But I'm still under 5 cycles total.

I don't know if I would say that both sides are right of center, but agree to disagree. I completely lost faith in politics when Bernie was screwed over in 2016 and then endorsed Hillary. How can you endorse someone you were screwed over for? He must have been paid off.

But yea both Bernie and Yang were better than the other candidates. It is what it is though, nothing will change. There's a reason why politicians who have served for decades are multi-millionaires on a $150k salary and it isn't because of living frugally/saving, investing well, etc.

Please god can we stop discussing political theology in the middle of me trying to find sales on leopard shorts in the middle of fall. Seriously take that shit elsewhere so I don’t have to scroll so much.

G’damn man
I don’t even have cable so I don’t know what you’re talking about when it comes to cnn.
And wtf does a guy throwing a sphere into a circle have to do with clothes?
I don’t even like basketball which is why I never got into the lebron collabs aside from the black hoodie because I just wanted a black hoodie that wasn’t cropped.
You’re like that one guy growing up where you’re in the friends group just because we grew up in the same neighborhood. We just tolerated you.

 

[Deceive]

Sooo back to the question: will will be getting flash sales?! @MIKE_JE

Also, I speak on behalf of the SF community: 26oz OS Cropped Hoodies & Crews pleaseeeeee

much truth to what you're saying.

TLDR
-> what does basketball have to do with clothes?
-> I don't like basketball.
-> I purchased a Lebron/JE collab.
-> you have no friends.

Your lack of self awareness is mind-blowing.
