+1, had some nice pickups from ragtag/space/heatwave - Shibuya stores always seem the best, Harajuku ones are good for streetwear too but I never seem to find much at the Shinjuku ones. Most Japanese treat their clothes good so most stock looks new/near new (often even current season!).

Went to a mall Burberry and was actually very impressed by the staff. Homie was decked out in the label (complete with Prorsum glasses) and knew his ****, homess was actually running and sliding in leather soled high heels, probably the only girl around these parts who knows how to properly wear a pair. Too bad they don't stock any Prorsum Also, Apple dude waived the $200 repair fee for my iPhone and I walked out with a brand new iPhone4

Yeah, generally I think there is better stuff to be found in Shibuya, there seem to be more good stores there as well. I've had some luck with one of the Ragtags in Shinjuku though, and the one in Ginza has been particularly good to me. Just too bad that one's sort of out of the way.

1. I am quite unique and sophisticated in my wardrobe. 2. People not only from my own school, but also surrounding schools look to me for fashion advice. 3. I have the physical capabilities to wear anything from "Athletic-Fit Vintage" (particularly Abercrombie & Fitch) to "GQ's latest muscle fit." 4. People consider me the "Abercrombie Guy" of my time. 5. I truly know how to accessorize with anything that I'm wearing. 6. I incorporate what I wear into whatever I'm doing. 7. Besides what I wear, my hairstyles and body tone almost always stand out as well. 8. I work as a model for Hollister in the summer. 9. I attend many formal events. 10.Dressing up every now and again is never something I am afraid to do.

I think this one has to be fake. Dear god i hope so. Sounds way to much like how an MC guy would redo their high school experience

Classicus 1. I haven't worn a t-shirt to school a single day this school year. 2. All I got for Christmas was Brooks Brother's gift cards. 3. At my school we give out senior superlatives such as most artistic, best dressed, etc. I'm a junior and I already have people campaigning for me to get best dressed next year. 4. Look at those pictures!

Has there been a discussion of t-shirt fabrics at some point? I tried searching for it, but the search function doesn't seem to like hyphens. Pretty much all I ended up with was a discussion of the WvG "****** fabric".

Something along the lines of:

- AA viscose tees are 100% viscose (and pile like nobody's business)

- AA tri-blends are 50% poly, 25% cotton, 25% rayon (and you can wash and dry them a bajillion times)

- Man of Moods tees are 70% rayon, 20% cotton, 10% silk (and feel really nice, but I haven't washed mine yet)

- Odyn Vovk Cure tees are 50% micromodal, 50% cotton (I don't have one, but I think APK spoke highly of them)

and so forth.
