I hear you on gilt sales though. I'm down to $50 gilt dollars (bought the same thing in 2sizes for gf and will return the ill-fitting one so will have $50 more soon) and haven't bought much in awhile. Will probably have to sell the rick tanks as i the bronze small definitely doesn't fit me. The bleach large one kinda does. i only tried on once and i worry it'll stretch out too much and that a medium would be best. Might sell both unfortunately which is too bad because i want 1-2 dickflap tanks (have wanted for awhile) but might just get a nicholas and marc one off dressspace. Though i realized i might want to work out the chest/arms a bit if i were to wear it straight to the gym or something. Would look good under stuff though. If you or anyone wants those tanks lemme know

New Balance MT100 is all the running shoe anyone could ever need. Minimalism FTW. Also, there are threads on this in the fitness section.

Tempted by some of the S2A stuff on Gilt, namely the weekend bag.

Nike had a new Nike Free out on 4/1/10 I think which I got. I haven't actually been able to spend much time running in them, nor do I know a lot about shoes, but they are pleasant, feel good, and feel different.

I caught like 6 racks of the stuff at C21 and I have to say even at those prices it was kind of disappointing. I'd say steer clear of Coming Soon unless you've played with it in person.

(And I'm an apologist for all things Yohji...)

ahaha while researching for my beatwear review i found this about giorgio brutini


It is a good looking boot. I am a Beatles fan so I have always wanted leather cuban heeled boots. I received them on time. They looked great. I then scuffed them and noticed they were not a real leather. They are like a composite of leather. I only wear them for small amounts of time, the heel cause my feet to cramp. Then one of the heels came off. It is not nailed. It was glued. I re-glued it and then decided to take it to a shoe repair man. He was going to Reheel the pair and Resole. I bought these in February! I have only worn these probably for 15 hours. THen my shoe guy told me that the sole is not leather as it says but cardboard! Unbelievable! I paid over eighty dollars for shoes that are a composite leather and cardboard soles! Ridiculous!!!

having handled them in person, i'm not surprised
