Wasn't this a sister brand to Evisu at one point?

FSC is truly a strange line and store...

I can't figure it out either. Who shops there?

Huh.

Wait, am I confusing TB with Lanvin? Lanvin stuff is made by Corneliani, right? I could've sworn about the TB jacket, but apparently, memory serves me wrong.

Lanvin is made by MA.CO (aka Raffaele Caruso Sartoria Parma). MA.CO also makes suits for Ralph Lauren Black Label and Brooks Brothers 1918 line. Corneliani makes suits for the Ralph Lauren Polo line. Martin Greenfield also makes suits for Freemans Sporting. Tom Ford uses Zegna for suits.

When people know something is made by hand, they quite often incorrectly assume that it is superior. Sometimes a machine can be used to produce a better result.

I think that you are talking about Martin Greenfield, one of the oldest quality manufacturers in the US. He actually makes the Black Fleece Line, which is not surprising seeing as the Brooks Brothers Golden Fleece MTM program is also through him. I believe that Thom Browne.'s mainline suits and sportsjackets are made by Zegna in Italy, however. The TB stuff that I have seen all indicates Italian origin.

You sure you're not thinking of Tom Ford?

so is all the wingshorns stuff for sale?

Last time I was there (3 weeks ago) they didn't have any Wings+Horns in the store

Did you start this thread just so you could use that joke?

Actually, Bluefly will not guarantee the authenticity of any of their products. I think it's safe to say that most, if not all, of their products are authentic. However, they can't really police people who buy items from bluefly and then return fake versions for a refund.

That's why I like trader. It's load of bullshit and egomaniacs but its good bullshit.

Nalgene bottles seem to be the norm

The Carlyle Group will make sure that America kicks ass for generations to come. Fuck yeah.

i think its just the way the japanese eat. Mostly are high in proten with complex carbs, with a little of everything. unlike the americans, where junk food like mcdonalds, in n out burgers are sadly the national food.

WTF? Have you ever been to Japan? Japanese food has hardly any complex carbs (white rice is not a complex carb) and there is very little protein in the diet when compared to an "American" diet. Also, the "little bit of everything" concept doesn't really enter into most young urban men's lives. In short, you're crazy if you think that there isn't plenty of unhealthy food in a Japanese guy's diet.

The only thing you might be right about is the way Japanese eat but don't confuse it with what they eat. I ate a substantial amount of unhealthy food when I lived in Japan...I just ate far less.

Just get a pair of Italian market dress trousers made by Borrelli, Eredi Pisano, et al. They are all slim, tapered and the rise is high enough. When you're looking at Italian brands, make sure you're buying European market products, not the U.S. version (which is a different cut). What size you looking for? I've got some in size 30 (EUR 46) that I'm looking to unload (legs a little too slim for me).

45rpm Sorahiko

SD-101

Eternal 874 (loose version of 811's)

RRL Straight Fit

Nom De Guerre Loose Fit

Arent the 5000VX's on the slim side? I was looking at these for my next pair but from all the fit pics they looked pretty tight.

That's because everyone on this website buys jeans to be tight. If you buy your regular waist, they are more of a regular fit (wouldn't go so far as to call them loose though).

\(^o^)/ YES!

What about the asian chicks who keep everything asian except their boyfriend? I know several like this....talk amongst yourselves.

What is it that you need to stick around? I know we were tough on you but you gotta get the work done when it's crunch time. Really, we got caught up in the heat of the moment and we really want to fix it. Higher salary? Fewer hours? A bigger cube? I can get you a secretary!

petey, your post made absolutely no sense, but i like that chutzpah!!!!! you're gonna make upper middle-management in no time with that winning attitude!!!!

Yeaaaaaah, I'm gonna have to ask you to watch Office Space this weekend.

doesn't resemble my job one bit, but seriously you should watch it.

I was being some what sarcastic, like "go salarymen, salarymen4life"

fail

Get the fuck outta here...you come in this thread and you're not even finished with high school? Someone take this kid out back and beat him PC Load Letter style. Make sure you turn on ghetto boys while you do it.

i'm a sarariman, but i'm going to take a 2mo. leave of absence next summer/fall for a long-ass motorcycle trip...

can i still play?

No salaryman job would allow you to do this. You either quit or keep working. Pick one.

sleep in denim. problem solved.

Won't happen. We are salarymen. If we do make it out of the office, we go straight to the club. We buy the bottles and bring home the models. Can I get a studdering Booyah?

Maybe the winning salaryman can receive a pair of distressed Warehouse jeans. Forget the natural indigo whatevers that the regular contest winner gets. I've almost forgotten what it's like to wear faded jeans.

seriously, I've got like 3 pairs of jeans that I've owned for over a year and there is hardly any wear. If I took pictures, it would look like I just washed them a few times.

the prize should be a denim tie... 7 fold and all that shit.

im sure someone here could fashion one.

Good call Cheep. Don't forget to let the selvage show on the underside. Gotta be 9 oz. for sure. Sick tie knot fades and shit.

I think we should throw in a tie bar made out of melted rivets too. Or maybe some cuff links made of fly buttons.
