The same goes for Alexander McQueen. I found a beautiful cardigan by him that I loved and it was one thousand dollars. Absurd. I suppose I'll wait until it goes on sale. Even Raf Simons and Cloak are better for my wallet.

I thought about killing myself when Sufu crashed. How many other sufu members contemplated suicide?

I have had the opportunity of seeing/touching the other stuff (basically everything carried at BiG), but not The Flat Head.

Hey westside, I know what you mean, ive contemplated TFH's but everytime a different brand seems more fitting, I liked the slim ones 3001 ....but the zip fly.... i liked the look of the 5100s but if im going all out for snazzy fabric ( first time ive typed that word ) then I have eternal 868 or my satokibis.... TFH fabric does appear to be structure denim, and thats special, vertical lines of fade should be cherished, your pbjs, although slubby and fading irregular wont be the same as TFH jeans, in the evo thread I put my howies ( structure denim ) fades next to my pbj fades, with the howies you can put a ruler and follow the same fade line for 6inches, its like someone put a bleach-tipped needle along a ruler on em a thousand million times; the same cannot be said for the PBJs. But they do fade in an irregular manner and have a unique charm. But all serious collections deserve some structure denim, so many people have eternals solely for there fabric i think.

Also, heavy denim isnt better denim, full count mention how they can produce 13oz denim because they use zimbabwean cotton thats of the highest quality....

Speaking of expensive stuff. Today while browsing grandism I looked at some visvims, what????? £150 for trainers????!??!!? C'mon.

yup, ストラクチャーデニム (sutorakucha- denimu): ムラ糸を使用し、特に縦の紺糸の太さを不揃いに 配列することによって、色落ちした際 際立った縦落ちをするデニム。 by weaving with warp threads of varying widths you can achieve more pronounced vertical fades as you wear them in.

Brian SD or LA GUY - Would it be possible for SF to implement some sort of 'thread preview' feature?

I find that feature to be very helpful because it allows me to sort of gauge whether the thread is actually genuine or simply spam. Perhaps I am asking a bit too much of SF since I am just a newbie here but the absence of that feature is literally my only issue with SF. Oh and thanks for being so hospitable during all of the times that the future has crashed!

ain't much spam round these parts some out and out noobishness, of which i'm occasionally guilty, but usually that's obvious from the title

Yes. Actually, the feature was turned off because the present server couldn't handle the increased load, but it will, if all goes as planned, be turned back on when when switch servers.

i´ve been out of town for 10 hours (listened to some new "classical" music in stockholm) and really thought the future would be online when I came back...

Its the same dissapointment as an empty mail box when you´re waiting for some new ebay buys.
