charles spiegel/the garage in pittsburgh, pa carries them if you are looking for more...

the dry , not dry selvage nudies are in the 150 range I believe

wow, those look real nice, i wonder what comparison i'd have with apc vs nudie dry selvage in 5 months

for denim, denim bar in arlington, va

there are many stores in tysons 1 and 2

many stores in georgetown (on m street)

dupont has a couple of stores, but mostly fairly small.

pentagon city mall has some good stores.

the selection isn't all that great in VA/DC area, in other cities there are many more boutiques that carry a wide selection of clothing lines.

but cost of living is cheaper, what do you expect.

what kind of shops?

those japanese toilets are interesting where they spray water....they have other functionality like butt warmer too

the cut doesn't seem all that great, and the ad w/ the guy on the lawn chair sporting the turned up cuffs to show selvage , his clothes does not match at all....

yup, same w/ my nudie dry selvage RR

that happens with some of my other jeans that aren't dual ringspun, but they are vintage

red monkey is cool, really like the pockets, but, i think overall, evisu has shown with more styles compared to red monkey as of now.

possible for RMC to get more styles, but time will tell

yup, feel the pain I have every time i go to asia, i can find clothes but not the shoes...

some clothes are odd too, not made for taller ppl...

just think of this, why do photographers use SLR cameras and not some pocket size camera.

for something smaller you are sacrificing something...and that something is quality. and with a film SLR there is no such thing as megapixel, it is a technology that is used in digital cameras to interpret the shot taken and put it into a resolution size, bigger is usually better, unless the picture is grainy.

just think sacrifices...from big -> small, not saying smaller is bad, just what are you willing to sacrifice for something pocket sized... I'd personally go for something pocket sized, but not as small as the t7 or t1, quality matters to me, but if it was a gift, I can't exactly sell it and get what I want...sort of have to use it to show my appreciation...

another note,

sony memory sticks are not on the top of the market, other types, SD, XD, compact flash, smart media are much cheaper than memory stick, and certain brands do sell ones with better performance, and have a far bigger memory capactity compared to memory sticks.

AND a LOT cheaper.

you should consider this when getting a digital camera, the one that comes with the camera is far from being enough if you plan to take at the max quality, no point to get a high megapixel camera if you dont' max the resolution (# of megapixels)

just think, a lot of digital SLR cameras don't take memory stick, mainly because other media types are faster, cheaper, and bigger capactiy.

however if you have a big wallet, go for sony, they are great design, but I don't think they are as reliable and good build.

if I had the deep wallet, I'd get the T7, because it'd be go hand and hand with my RAZR, but I'm sure to expect bad quality on the T7 like on my T1

I own the sony DSC-T1

at the time the camera was $500 plus a 512 mb memory stick (smaller one) new at the time was $299, luckily I got a deal for $130 with a 512 mb from sandisk

anyhow, my overall feeling was the camera was a great size, I use to have a canon s110, but wouldn't have gotten this unless it was FREE, which it was, a gift.

I do like the size, but it is far from quality.

similarly with the T7, I would expect similar quality traits, yes it is a great design, but think about the quality of pictures you are going to get....

you can say it has a carl zeiss lens, but altho however famous he is for lens, these lens on the T1 aren't that great, similarly on the T7. The bigger lens and if quality lens you will get more light and focus, this is sorta the basis of cameras.

since the lens are so small, the end result is bad quality shots especially at night, and a lot of grains in the night shots. In addition, for day shots, they are bad if not enough of sun is out, and with the small sized camera, some times during daytime the shots are blurry.

overall, if I didn't get this as a gift, I would have gotten the canon s series, or SD series cameras.

the size and quality of lens on canon's are superb.

also, don't be misconceived about megapixel, megapixel doesn't mean anything if your lens are small ...t1, t7. If I was to compare, my 2 megapixel canon s110 takes better pictures than the T1, although 2 megapixel, the quality is so great you can zoom in and etc without bad pictures. often times, my T1 is too grainy, and I tell my gf to bring her camera (much bigger) but better night time pictures. and if you want good pics at night with the T1, they better be close up.

another big issue is that the T1 flash similarly with T7 doesn't project enough distance. There are often too many times that I have to edit my T1 pictures because of lack of brightness. with my old canon, far from none...

just to clear up some issues about digi cams, next time when someone says 5 megapixel camera, you shouldn't say WOW, you should ask, which one, then say WOW if it's decent.

my 2 cents

there's this one bar in hk, that sport evisu clothing...

i think it would be interesting how nice / affordable the design is...

check out dailycandy.com

usually there are sample sale postings there.

there are sample sales in nyc also that you would only know by ear...

bws=barney warehouse sale

yea, it's hectic at sample sales. and there usually are no dressing rooms so the

scene may be pleasant or unpleasant.

you could get a paypal credit card, the money gets deducted from your paypal account

haha, fun stuff.

i think you should work in your jeans at an oil change place, you will definitely get some

natural stains...

2nd pair looks real, not so sure about the first

I pimp it with my remote control pocket racer

red monkey jeans, or RMC.

they have great back pocket stiching, however somewhat following evisu type designs that may affect the brand image.

anyhow, for the ones that aren't as flashy, the back pockets are very cool.

these are much more popular in asia, but I believe fred segal in LA carries them.

yea, i agree.

it's very hard to have a pair of broken in dry jeans to really fit well on you, since they stretch and what not (prior to wash).

however, they are still great if you want a relaxed fit to go out in.

personally, I wear my dry jeans during the day and what not, and at night for clubbing I wear my pre-washed pre distressed jeans.

I just got the nike team edition sb, they are great cool shoes, but I don't plan to skate in them.

denim bar is a store in arlington, VA (USA)
