Giorgio Armani Black Label sneakers $465>$161
Things are solid, hard as a rock. This is classic GABL item that is constantly used every spring/summer with the GA collections.

lol, I've seen fake Chinese CPs that looked better than these.

Opening Ceremony sale is awesome.

Only it's all light green instead of patchwork like this. I would have gotten the patchwork, but I didn't see any smalls

And, of course the Soe Shirt 015

Totally badass. The last size 0, too.

I might go back to take a gander at some John Lawrence Sullivan stuff.

Why the **** am I looking at gigantic pictures of boxes and packaging?

**** yeah dude. Did they have Haversack stuff out there? Really liked some of that funkier printed stuff they have on the website. Is Acne stuff on sale? That oversized safety pin shawl knit has been calling my name for months...

Haversack, yes, although I can't recall if it's on sale or not. I think it is.

Acne is on sale at the actual Acne store (which is apparently affiliated with OC). Plus, you get 10% off regular priced Acne stuff if you have an OC receipt.

the pictures are pretty excessive but those GA sneakers are pretty nice IMO. They look way similar to CP's though, like they were made in the same factory.

 

[cjl2g]

is OC still at 50 percent off, or has it increased?

Actually, those are the same soles that common projects, lanvin, barrett, and a ton of other designers use from what i can see.




Also, how much were the OC patchwork shirts? I think the medium might fit me if it runs super slim like i'm guessing it does.

Yeah, they're the same soles, but even the fakes use those soles, so it's not saying much. The uppers on those GAs are obviously inferior to CPs, though, even from those bad pics... the leather is really thin and has that cheap-looking sheen, and the construction looks like crap.

Plus the fat round laces don't look too good.

So... they're exactly like common projects then?

 

[Caveat]

Got this in a medium. Not sure about the color b/c it says dark green...cool pockets though. http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/Y%27S+...sr_clearance80
