Two strong fits back to back love to see it.

@Saaaantoooos what are the sneakers?

They’re nike x Union Mocs 3.0 with some house paint on it

very comfy and surprisingly snug

Anyone handled this season's heavyweight ripstop fabric as used on the FA Pants, Bedford, Fatigues etc? Thoughts?

@hoodog I have the heavyweight olive fatigues (as does @Phullyman) - they're definitely much heavier and more rigid than the standard olive ripstop from the SS20 season, but I probably like it a bit more. Just feel more substantial and is wearing in nicely. Should "fade" nicely, similarly to denim due to the weight, IMO

Would they be impossible to wear during spring/summer?

@spalwart agreed! @hoodog personally, the fatigue is much more wearable without being as much "fashion", but the FA pants are cool too. I'd go fatigues since there are already so much fabric on the FA. Not sure how I'd feel about the fabric in tops, tbh. I think this works best as bottoms, but could see a jacket with some wear being nice. Just think it'd be a bit stiff as a top.
