The internet is not always right.

******* data science!

The internet is not always right.

But on an aggregate level it often is!

Every time I wash an overdyed item for the first time and see the water go down the drain, I feel like I just lost half the garment.

Grail? Or, have GATs officially jumped the shark? (Pun intended)

Stingray is pretty cool, although I've only ever seen it on small leather goods (sheaths, holsters, belts, mag holders).

 

[Bam!ChairDance]

I actually quite like those, and it's nice to see Epaulet do something eccentric

So Burberry has added Navy to the regular color runs of the Heritage Trench. Red too (for women). I really think Navy is the most versatile color a trench could be, so that's pretty cool.

Haven't they had that for a couple of years.


Also lol at Eplauet.

 

[BostonHedonist]

Not with any regularity. Not the Heritage. I had to get my navy gabardine from the Prorsum line.

 

[cyc wid it]

Prorsum is more interesting anyway.

Tommy Ton's new website is pretty cool

there's an awesome vintage store on la brea in la called what goes around comes around that stocks cool shop coats, souvenir jackets, and for some reason, cdg and junya. they had that junya x porter jacket that folds into a bag, and this other thin jacket which for some stupid reason was a size too small for me. i havent felt overpowering clothing lust in a while, and even though the jacket i wanted was obviously too tight in the shoulders at xs, my mind raced to rationalize a purchase. im still thinking about it. i feel like my heart is being torn open.. the pull is too strong, and i am so weak...

but anyway, i know that porter collab is a grail for some people, so its there in a size small for $1000.

What goes around comes around is so damned overpriced it's scary. You can go to the Rose bowl every month and find a lot of the same stuff for a fraction, all you need is the time. I'll give it to them though, they know how to curate their stores.

i agree, but there are some things that you will never find in a lifetime of scavenging thrift stores and swap meets. they had this beautiful heavy black linen shop coat that must have been fourty years old, almost new condition. priced at seven hundred. something similar from needles would cost more.

i need to check out that swap meet though. maybe it could be an la guyz meetup.

Union LA also sells some stuff for them.
