  1. you can't even compare Rogan's philosphy with many of the japanese brands...it's completely different...apples and oranges...

    in my opinion, Rogan is on point...espec the Original Fit....if you want "staple" denim...nothing too flashy or trendy...it'll last and wear well...the fits are good, not too baggy, not too tight...straight leg...etc, etc, etc..

  2. if i were you, i'd just order off the site...

    go one size down if you plan on washing and shrinking...go two sizes down if you don't plan on washing or plan on dry cleaning...inseam length is the same for all sizes....

  3. what up minya...

    according to apc's website, they have Original Standard, Standard and New Standard...the only diff i can see is that the New Standards offer the overdye black...but as to fit, i can't tell what the difference is...is one slimmer than the other??

    thanks.

  4. alright...someone please set the record straight once and for all....are the New Standards slimmer than the Standards? my understanding is that they're essentially the same.

    if someone could please confirm, it would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks in advance...

  5. i must say, when visiting japan in 2004, i was pleasantly surprized to see Wings&Horns being stocked there...just goes to show that as long as you're doing something with quality, people will feel it...

    on a side note, i think Spruce/Wings&Horns are the only brands i anxiously wait for now each season, just to see what they put out....

  6. recently ordered a Supreme sweatshirt online from a reputable site...received it and noticed that the material is a bit thinner than most other sweats Supreme makes (as far as I know)...not the usual super heavy cotton...checked out the other details of the sweat and seems legit...it's the rottwieler joint from last year....can anyone shed some light or confirm that the joint is the real deal?

    thanks.

  7. TNT...Delphic...Nomad/GDFT/Ransom...plus all the usual suspects WILL be having sales...expect TNT to blow things out...the Nomad fam will also have good deals...delphic always does big things...in my opinion, it's the one day worth doing "destination shopping"...just don't complain about your size and colour being gone...should have copped when you first saw it...

  8. better prices?...no...

    i'm also pretty sure that capsule's stock is strictly on a reseller tip...there have been rumblings that they'll get the Serras...that would be good, cause those boots are ill...but again, on a reseller tip...

  9. i hear ya 100%...good points...

    however, firstly...Nomad's accounts with Supreme and NDG are 100% legit...

    let's face it...as great as Supreme is - and i know many would argue this point alone - the quality doesn't touch NDG's. for those that have personally seen NDG's collection, i'm sure you'll agree...Each item is well cut and made in Japan...CYC is great and all, but doesn't come close to the overall quality of NDG's pieces...

    in the end, what i'm trying to say is that i strongly believe Nomad is doing right with the NDG clothing and price points...you're right, there's nothing wrong with pricing to demand, but are we to truly believe that NDG is as great a hypebeast as Supreme?...

    i believe that the prices reflect the quality of NDG's line...and those that "get it", will get it...those that don't won't...and that's fine...Ransom opened up for a reason...

    if any of this come off as disrespectful Trini, i apologize...it's not my intent...these are just my thoughts...mainly directed to the kids that whine and complain all the time about Nomad's prices...

  10. it's a rough estimate...whichever way you slice it, it's still a reasonable price when compared to what Nom De Guerre prices it at...

    everybody has to make money...Nom De Guerre isn't pushing it's products out there to other stores for free...Nomad is Nom De Guerre's customer, just like you and i...one thing pushes the other...

    however, don't get it twisted, i'm not defending the price of the hoody, i'm just saying that overall, Nomad's price points are fairly reasonable...aside from the visvims...

    damn 500 cad for a sweatshirt? isn't nom de guerre selling them for $275 usd?

    hmm...let's see...$275 x approx 1.3 = $358 cad...add shipping costs, add custom charges...add a profit for nomad...yes people, nomad is actually a legitiment business that has their own expenses to cover and where profit is to be made...and you come to what i think is a reasonable price for the hoody...

    that being said...would i spend $500 for a hoody?...prob not...

    would i complain how the city never gets quality clothing, beg that stores go out and bring in quality lines (knowing that it'll cost a pretty dime) and then complain about the prices once they're there?...nope, i wouldn't do that either...

  12. you kids have been sleeping...

    studio deluxe is one of toronto's finest...

    one of the FIRST to stock levi's red and Nudies in toronto...Nudies were there years ago, before the whole denim craze...

    Loid (Ivan's line) has been crazy for a minute now...excellent cut & sew pieces...

    it's a shame that this place has been slept on, because they've always been on point...

    but hey, its taken the delphic fam like 10 years to get the respect they deserve in this city...so no real surprize i guess...
