I really like the look of the barrel laces on these Sperrys.

I want to do that to the laces on my Sperrys. Do you need to buy these laces special, or can you manipulate the standard leather Sperry laces so they will coil on the ends like that? Thanks!

I'll try here before I start a thread. Is there anywhere in Boston to have jeans properly hemmed and chainlink stitched, or should I mail them off to BiG.

Hello,

Sorry to annoy you again with a picture, but I saw this simple jacket very often and I would like to know what the brand is.

I've seen plenty of people on here wearing shoes without socks and like the look, but am wondering how you do this? I've tried it, but find it phenominally uncomfortable after about 10 minutes. Do you do anything in particular to make it tollerable?

Uncomfortable...in what way? I do this with canvas sneakers that are well-ventilated, so my feet actually feel better w/out socks.

Hmm...maybe talcum powder? At least for canvas shoes...I know its kind of a ridiculous suggestion but it worked for me...

GAP xs is going to be like a potato sack on you unless you have near a 40" chest. If you can fit in a youth xl size one, you've got more options. Lots of stores like Walmart sell youth sized oxfords for school uniforms. There's always American Apparel, as well. Poor quality but they fit alright, if you're skinny. They have xxs and xs sizes.

how much would it cost to demagnetize a watch. my father accidentally came into contact with a high powered magnet 10 years ago while running an experiment and never got his watch to run on time again.

Is there any risk of buying fake Dior MIJ or MII jeans, or don't fake ones exist? I just want to be careful if I'm buying a 2nd hand pair.
