I copped. UE bomber was in consignment store right next to supreme but it was bnwt and 13440 yen (like $128 USD), so I pretty much had to.

I regret buying the bape tee on the basis that their retail experience/store policies are so backwards that they don't deserve my money, but since part of those policies include no returns/exchanges of any kind I'm stuck with it. Which is fine really, I do like how it looks.

From a practical standpoint, these kind of pictures allow you to see the whole item in its entirety with room for details. Has to be a shot you took though and not just a stock photo.

'Should I buy'' questions should (hopefully) have a stock photo.

My cheap-ass black dress belt finally snapped in two much to my annoyance. Was hoping to indefinitely put off replacing it. Every time I look at decent belts apathy washes over me and I simply can't muster up the enthusiasm for paying ~€100 for something as dull as a belt. Also it seems like so much hassle to do online. Maybe I should just go to C&J and buy one and get it over with.

Anyone got any thoughts? I don't care greatly about baller leather but I want something that will last the course.

Not buying from north america so get out of here with your usual suspects innit.

Would you consider making your own belt? You can get a quality belt this way for a fraction of the retail cost. The process is pretty straightforward even if you know little to nothing about leather crafting (like me), and is a fun project to undertake. There were a couple guides on MFA about this, but if I were you I would probably just in Brussels to get started.

If this doesn't interest you, then I'm afraid you may have to end up paying retail. Baller leathers aside, some form of full grain leather is really the only thing that lasts. Still, there is nothing wrong with getting cheaper polyurethane blended belts (think patent or genuine leather) as long as you're willing to replace them every couple years.

66% Polyester, 22% cotton, 12% rayon

This might be a little bit off-topic here. Really didnt know where to put it.
But I can proxy a Visvim Artifact jacket ( green ) in size 3, if it is still avilable, for 30% off. Originally costs 950USD and is now avilable for 660-670ish.
If anyone is interested contact me. I live in Sweden, so of course the shipping is a little bit higher, suppose it will cost 150SEK ( 23USD ) within Europe and 180SEK ( 28USD ) to get it shipped worldwide, outside of Europe that is.
I dont have the money for the jacket right now, but it is the first time I think I have seen Vis on sale, so send me a message if you want it!

Image
Not my picture, just to give you a picture of how it looks!

Thanks

negging bc this isn't a recent purchases thread & stock pics are lame. post in waywt (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8) or shoewaywt (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=154) or in the nanamica ss14 thread (viewtopic.php?f=6&t=344) or in the windows 95 school of design thread (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=269) when you receive them, maybe

e: or the hat thread (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=242) or the trainers thread (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=128)

sorry to talk meta but it wouldn't fit in a rep comment.

prompting people to post in relevant threads creates varied content, rather than having the traditional thread set of "waywt, recent cop, find me, gd" the trap that every other forum falls into, encouraging people to actively participate in all areas of the forum as a whole and in turn broadening the horizons/ knowledge in ways you would otherwise overlook. the thread was also started as a place to discuss the possibility of buying something, rather than showing what you bought. that said i have no issues with people posting product links and discussing about them as product shots achieve very little, but at that point you might as well post in a relevant thread.

Been wanting this all season, told myself I'd wait until end of season like I did with my olive balmacaan from them and get it on the cheap, and now its here and still in my size (50) I'm not copping. I don't really know why.

Grats on the jacket, looks great. Opt for a "extremely" sweatshirt instead as it's more appropriate for your roots.

souped up jogging pants are definitely trendy but I can't help but want a pair. i'll have to try some on and see how it looks.

these look nice. also would try something from a to see if it could get the job done, though the leg openings seem to be more athletic on those and they have those awful gussets that so many of the cheap urban outfitters/karmaloop/etc brands have. (why???)

Are you talking about the crotch gusset? I love crotch gussets.

Publish is an underrated brand, quality is nothing out of this world but they make some cool stuff.
