Yeh, all my Uniqlo purchases go unworn. I don't learn.

I bought a perfect fitting/cut +J black overcoat but the material feels so crappy I never want to wear it

A lot of people give **** to Skulls for using 100% cotton, but for some reason I love it regardless of how it breaks so easily all over.

Im fairly sure my edwin bucklebacks were 100% cotton as they essentially exploded

The +J chinos are pretty damn nice

I put up an intro to Capsule Vegas. Once we figure out how we're going to sort out content (ie, post threads and pics now and Q&As later), I'll add more threads.

Brands we're looking at: Norse Projects, Mr. Olive (Eagle of Independence), Left Field, Fjallraven outerwear, Highland, Unis, Spurr, Wrath Arcane, Wings + Horns outerwear, and Krane.

mother fuckin lowballers. It pains me to see them ******** up people's threads with offers that are half the asking price... including shipping to Hong Kong.

This pant looks sweet. Any idea how one would wear this?

It couldn't fit worse than the jeans you already have, go for it. (hate)

No really, just totally change your style and wear sweatpants with tanktops or sweatshirts/hoodies.

LOL eason

That Y3 fit is hoodrat status, would go great with a pair of dada supremes

 

[LabelKing]

Y-3 is horrible stuff.

I saw their runway show in NYC--a rather grand affair in the old Armory building--and the designs were what you would expect. Overdesigned athletic wear.

The highlight of the show though, was Yohji himself coming out in the end to do a little kung-fu fighting.

Can anyone tell me the stockists (preferably online) that carry Thorocraft shoes?
