I don't know what I want (Buyer's guide)

[bels]

If you know your trickers size now (they are a bit tricky), you could camp the retricker store on ebay:

Or you know, northampt factory store road trip:

I don't want to be the annoying "I know what you want better than you." guy though. In the end the CPs are probably perfectly fine and might well be less of a hassle to get hold of, just posting for other people who might be more time rich aka teenagers..

so, i got my glasses recently stepped on; and they're being held together with tape right in the middle.
planning on replacing them, but most likely not in the same "buff/clear" colour. (my size is nowhere to be found for less than retail)

3 options i'm thinking of, all of them are oliver peoples gregory peck's but in different colours.
for what it's worth i'm light tan in skin-tone; but here are my options i'm thinking of:



i can't honestly decide which of these i like more than the other.

[nevergreen]

i'm going to be buying the gregory pecks relatively soon as a birthday present to myself and i'm going with the "moss tortoise"



e; i guess this isn't very helpful as i'm sure you've seen this colorway haha eh i like the top two

What do you guys think? I like them, and the price is great. I prob wouldn't pay retail for them, but I wanna make sure I'm not just buying it cause its on sale.

I really like this CDG jacket, but I don't know how well it would work with more casual clothing.

[klonopin]

relaxed/straight leg black chinos for <$100? high street shops aren't making anything wide enough for my taste/ is ll bean my best option???

[wax]

need a substitute for thongs because I hate wearing thongs.

I think this is the nicest teva variant I've found but I can't find an Australian stockist and for some reason teva thinks it's cool to charge $50 to ship sandals to Australia.

[harmsalmon]

Zurich (cool-weird or just weird-weird? something different at least)



or Boston (cool I think but pretty predictable/typical)?

[alby]

zurichs are cool. whenever I see zurichs anywhere I immediately think of the wm x tatami "zurichs"

[RycePooding]

fuck heading up north soon with no real warm jacket. need a down sweater (to layer with rain shell + wool sweater).

any recs? I like patagonia, but dont really want one

New snow peak shit is pretty great

I fell in love with these boots from Yuketen, I feel like I already have enough boots but not in the aesthetic that I'm looking for:


I'm also considering a pair of wallabees. What to do? Here's what I currently have:

[pirxthepilot]

latest derby kop attempt, for those who care about that kinda ting. great toe shape, but minor fit issues and perhaps a little dressier than i wanted (idk what i want)

[bels]

Pirx is just using this all as an excuse to create the greatest blackderb collection of all time.

[pirxthepilot]

haha, nah i'm just working out what i need/like. never wore black shoes casually before, was always in raw denim/EG type stuff so side zips, brogues etc but always in earthy colours.

[Syeknom]

So jealous of those.

[harmsalmon]

mighty tempted by that linked in the jumpsuits thread a while back. really love the actual separateness of the pieces, the band collar jacket (I've been wanting one), the variety of fabrics to choose from, and that low low price. up until now I have been pretty anti-jumpsuit-bandwagon, but I really love this and the idea of occasionally being able to just throw it on when I don't feel like coordinating an outfit is pretty tantalizing.

is this stupid? help me c-t

[Blastoise]

I wear my black/white sk8 hi's around twice a month when I'm having a lazy day. Not feeling them anymore. Should I drop them and go for white AF1 mids instead? I've been thinking about them for quite a while. Or looking for any other higher profile sneakers in that price range.

[trichomatic]

I haven't ordered anything online for about 8 months and managed to accrue about 800 in paypal funds.

Looking at boots since boot season came early this year.

Thinking of proxying a pair of these



These also caught my eye

Or I could just settle for classic timbs.

[ramseames]

roccia vet silhouette is >>>>>

timbs are easy if you dunno what you want though

[pirxthepilot]

thoughts on dm 'steed' model as a beater derby for trips etc? I think the standard MIE model looks good on skinnier ppl, as a fairly well-built, shaven-headed black guy i feel like a slightly sleeker shape might work better for me

[bhajz]

highly rec those boots, I just got my pair a week ago and they're really comfortable and aren't too chunky or anything. Suede feels really nice too

[Vaeltaja]

These pants in black:





Zips are sorta cool, can make the pants looser or tighter in the waist and ankles (two way).

Would probably wear mostly with combats... seems too industrial(?) for zip boots, maybe.

They're Guidi sidezips

[Morlin]

Does there exist a white button down with tiny, embroidered music notes?

[ambyance]

[ramseames]

Any jpy stockist

That colour is last year's though

Fwiw end isn't overpriced, everyone marks up soph outside Japan

[starfox64]

i remember the sale price on end being about what i paid for a pair at the soph store in osaka last year. something to keep in mind w/r/t customs and fees and stuff (both in regards to proxying and end).

[pirxthepilot]

very tempted by this

[DeafIdiotGod]

Recent purchases I'm mulling over:

Our Legacy Raw Silk Shirt

Probably keeping this one, it's the most comfy thing I have ever worn, like comfier than any of my tees or sweats, like I do not think I can adequately convey how comfy this is through words alone. It drapes in a lovely slouchy way, the hem is nice and long at the back and I love the deep red colour, I've been needing something to break up my blue, black and dark greens.



Fabric close up, one of my housemates said it somehow felt like suede



Our Legacy Paisley Scarf

Already posted in the moody neckwear thread. Unsure about this one though, it's nice but I don't know how much wear I'd get out of it since I'd mostly just wear it with a fairly limited set of outfits (that said those fits are the only ones which I normally put a scarf in anyways). As well as that I really wanted the deep orange/red coloured one but that's out of stock everywhere I look. It smelled really strongly of something after I took it out of the packaging and I don't know what, someone said it was like penicillin or something which just raises further questions. Seems nice and warm and not too scratchy, it is also massive which is pretty cool.

[station]

Pretty close to copping these tech runners in the sales, but wondering if there were any other stealthy cyberpunk trainers that had flown below my radar. Also anyone know sizing for this season? I was planning .5 down from my regular adidas size.
