Those boots look like they're trying to be 3 diff things at once
the lacing stance is about as wide as the boot itself, looks weird.
I like the belt though.

uncontrol you seem to own a lot clothing that suits your style and don't really need anything else -- why not hold off on cops for a few months, get a wad of cash together, then buy something truly epic? Poell boots come to mind. You can get them off ebay for 1/3 to 1/2 of retail. Or get some next level pimpin' bag.

Just throwing that out there.

I agree much of it seems to be for the sake of being provocative and w/e, but idk, those two seem plausible to me.

edit: your picture of the elliot just showed up for me :p ken sold me that one at a discount.



i've accepted the fishtail on the '10 since the rest of it is awesome

It isn't a bad idea, but to be honest my tastes can change fairly quickly so I'm not comfortable laying out a bunch on one item. I don't particularly want Poell boots, either. I don't mind the idea of laying out for a sick bag or something ...

I should stop kopping soon altogether, though.

Yeah, boots suck, idk why I posted them. Still digging the belt too though.

I like it fine, just warning anyone else who might be interested. But, is this coat really 'twilight style'?
