Go to Supreme's webstore right now and show me 1 piece that remotely comes close to resembling something from SLP.

This?



Or this?



Or maybe this?



Don't kid yourself. The only reason SLP is popular with that crowd is because it's "internet approved".

Good job picking 3 of the least popular Supreme items. If we're playing that game I can also post SLP items that don't necessarily fit Hedi's aesthetic. I'm thinking more items like these -





I also never said Supreme and APC Resemble SLP, Simply that they fit right in together. SLP is basically Sneakers, boots, Jeans Leather and shirts.. It would fit with anything really.

I also never once said Hedi has overseen anything from the mass manufacturing plants overseas, I only said there are items he oversees vs items that the manufacturing plants produce to fill the line. I've actually been to the SLP design studio in Weho and have seen members of his team meticulously dissect denim and collaborate with local ateliers and vintage clothing restoration people in l.a. to produce a lot of the stuff that hits the lines.

^also the funny thing about the baby cat shirt is that it's much more expensive than what it costs in boutiques. Even some of the sneakers on far fetch are more than they retail in shops, so sometimes you aren't even getting a better deal. Not saying the items on far fetch etc are not legit, but they are definitely not items Hedi has overseen, simply mass produced factory run's. 


The shirts just come in different collar styles (the one you have is called Dylan I believe). I don't think there's two means of production at play (one "with Hedi" and one without).

What was that denim place called again?

Best denim store in LA for most of your needs. Easiest repairs and Robert stands by his products.

Yep, I only heard about them from my SLP visit and will now be doing most of my shopping through them. All the guys there are legit and super nice. They've got great skills in restoring awesome vintage pieces that look like future classics. Love their black denim and the black/blue denim is beautiful. Walking into their shop feels like you're about to get fitted right before a Black Keys show.

It was bound to happen, but whatever. It's not something important to me to get fixed so I might just remove it completely. Those Margiela jeans from the Recent Purchases thread though...

Uh! That chain though, it's annoying on the jackets, I always have to tell people not to hang my jacket in that little chain as it's not durable...

Can someone provide detailed fit pics of those boots: http://www.mrporter.com/product/374389

The heel looks so massive on the pics, I would really like to see how it looks worn with jeans/trousers. There is also a chelsea boot with a low heel I think, but it seems like no one is stocking it?

It is quite massive irl. Didn't buy them, so can't provide a fit pic.
However I have the low chelsea boot, and it's classic. Still to be found at:
