this is awesome. I want to post OC but i'm worried my photography won't do it justice

[Syeknom]

Please try! OC is the best C.

Will try to take some photos myself too though. Wish I had a macro lens.

my r by 45rpm belt is constructed like this to create a dynamic / sliding belt loop

[Syeknom]

That's really nice, I like how beat up the leather is and the little 4 marked in it

[Syeknom]

No OC yet sorry

cuffs in that first pic remind me of margiela blazers with mirror cuffs

what is that army knit in pic 3?

[Syeknom]

I like this exercise for removing brands (more-or-less) from the equation

[can-]

i was almost sure it was mmm. it's so clever how they repro the military sweater fabric and details but w that classic cardi shape. thanks for this thread monkeys really good stuff

[Syeknom]

Yeah it's a nice piece. I can't stand elbow patches 95% of the time (although the ss margiela jumpers had some really beautifully feeling patches even if they looked dorky) but these are great.

MMM stuff looks pretty lame in online stores a lot of the time.

ben, what do you make of this season's reflective theme? I think it's really hard for it to come across well on the internet. Can see that facet appealing to you though

[can-]

you mean this stuff?


it looks even worse in person if you can believe it. but for the 40 year old Margiela Man its cool and fits in with the brand's edgier stuff

[Syeknom]

Agreed, I think a lot of it looks tacky as shit, yeah. I like that some pieces fit in with Margiela sleaze though. Sleaze is a highly underrated commodity online.

Would like to meet the 40 year old Margiela Man.

That DebisDb9 SF Margiela man wears some stuff I like sometimes but sometimes find super boringdull.

[Syeknom]

Regis? I love his fits, really appropriate for his physique and location (west indies) and pretty consistent.

Erotically folding back the button placket to reveal the wire hoop behind, allowing the button to be popped off and replaced with another in a different colour.

[Syeknom]

Those poppers are sweet ben.

Sad bit and bob today:



Lame.

[bels]

what took the hit?

Are you gonna get it fixed?

[Syeknom]

My flannel suit just as it started to get worn again with the plummeting temperatures.

It's not fixable sadly, best anyone can do is put elbow patches on but god I hate elbow patches. Will do it to at least give me the option of wearing it again.

[odradek]

go with junya style patches: completely the wrong material with big ol' frankenstein 'X' stitching all around it, don't even bother finishing the edges of the patch

[Syeknom]

If it wasn't for work and didn't have such rigid, structured shoulders and jacket shape that would be good for sure

Slub silk tie my ex bought me from epaulet

Tatami mat insoles in the Adidas that I wore today. So comfy no lie.

[schiaparelli]
