BBS has some hard to handle double zippers as well. When a girl sitting on a couch in a bar wanted to help me with the zipper on my coat all the people behind me were laughing because it looked like a blowjob.
Some random thoughts here:
Silent should be more expensive than the mainline.
Starting to like MA.
And a fast fashion thought: Dont women in cheap high heels ask for the attention of just women in cheap high heels and men who like women in cheap high heels? Sorry, I came too close to a newly opened shopping center in my town...

i think it's kind of funny that the only acceptable level of flexing while wearing SI is without the badge even though it's extremely obvious that you removed the badge

Ever shallower "collaborations" and re-combinations of the same old symbols and signs.
A $500 t-shirt that says "Francis Fukboiyama".
An LV X Supreme boot stamping on a human face - forever.

Normcore, like cyberpunk, is difficult to theorise now that It's suffused reality.

There’s a store in a cellar in Shibuya called “archive store” and it sells old helmut Lang and raf Simons etc.
Did supreme start the recent popularity of jpg or was it those archive Instagram accounts? Did those accounts start posting jpg because it was cheap to buy on eBay?
I think you can see the whole archive situation as an exercise in commodity manipulation.
And ASAP Rocky, he was probably the source of the widespread popularity of “archive” clothing.

Re: Sam’s rep comment, Yes they had some amazing margiela items that I had never seen in person such as the down jacket coat and glove vest. Worth visiting for that alone.
Some things truly are archive worthy. But then other specific items of clothing are just transparently about pushing up the value. I remember some specific undercover jacket (I think the one that says zamizang) suddenly being a very expensive archive piece. Or the junya watanabe poem shirts and jeans.
Honestly anything with text printed on it from the 90s will probably become “archival” seeing a bunch of hysteric glamour pop up recently. Maybe that 2047691042 brand.

It's very amusing/depressing to see items from max 4 years ago pop up on the archive instagrams and to be told they are archival. Total joke.

The year is 2013, You live between sufu and /r/malefashion and it’s December. You wake up every morning to turn on laptop at 7am. The sales have started. You already know what you're looking for on Mr P and that’s snagging your first set of common projects achillies lows. the IRC is already a buzz of latest cops. Life is good.
