Check out page 2 of their look book. Hypocrite much? Dude should just be happy people buy **** like Mister Freedom. For every guy who pulls it off like zissou, a few dozen look like denim clad super nerds.

I'm a big advocate of the insult-my-customers marketing approach

Shots fired via Tumblr...

Should someone accuse anyone of "bad looks" when they wore a denim tuxedo to your their own wedding?

*sigh* probably won't be ordering from oki-ni anymore if they stick with DHL.

edit: this fabric detail sheet is even worse. "3. Total number of single ends per square centimeter: __________________
a. # of single ends in warp ____________
b. # of single ends in filling ____________

4. Weight of fabric in grams per square meter: ________________________"

and that's just the tip of the ice berg. what. the. ****.


FedEx cocksuckers called me the other day about the same thing.
i ordered a pair of junya pants and the MMM untitled cologne.
The package was listed as "wool pants" and "candle." DHL calls me to ask me what ingredients are in the candle to which i answered "it's not a candle its perfume." The drone responded with "oh that changes everything. I have to send this to Border Control & Protection because they handle perfumes." So then BCP sends me a form to fill out which requires my SSN. Illogically, the cocksuckers were complaining about the wool pants. They said any textile garment requires that the recipient fill out that special form. Its ridiculous. After arguing with them for two days telling them I wouldn't send my SSN unencrypted I finally gave up and just sent it. FedEx officially sucks. Mindless drones can all go eat a dick up.

I never have used fed ex ever again ever since I sent three posters I sold for a ton of money, and they somehow arrived at the guys door looking like a lion tried to devour them.

Happens to me all the time. When it is clothes, they often ask where the clothes were manufactured, not where or who sold it but who literally made it and which factory. I always give them the "how the hell am I suppose to know" answer. And yah, they require your SSN for some reason. That's why I always ask which carrier the stores outside of US uses because I always try to avoid UPS, FedEx and DHL when it comes to international shipping.

yeah, such stupid questions. the drones cant seem to differentiate between commercial and personal purchases.

one of the drones was trying to tell me it was classified "commercial" because I bought it from a store. lol. i had to copy and paste snippets from the BCP website to prove to her how dumb she was. commercial = business use/resale.

i used to think DHL was ok. who else is left besides those three?
