I still have that grey and black TNF two tone, I love it

as far as winter jackets go there aren't many options as far as body styles go. I'm not really talking about your more generic type, it would have to be defined by its styling, branding, and materials. Anything can be new and different if its given a twist. I'm not the type to rock a poncho just cause no one else did. he snorkle is a classic style for my genre

it would be like me saying "you want a hoodie? hoodies have beem played out for many years, every year every brand makes hoodies." I however know that you want a cashmere polo hoodie which thus seperates it from the 1000s of others

I'd say get that hoodie, and wear it backwards with the hood up. Its the best look for a guy who looks like che guevara and tommy lee's anorexic love child.

I kid I kid

What types of jackets are ya'll looknig to invest in for this upcoming fall/winter?

What types of styles, materials, and styles are interesting to you at the moment?

for me I'm really looking for a snorkle styled jacket in a black or dark charcoal heavy wool/peacoat/goretex cashmere material with a fur hood for the really cold days

I'm also thinking about a varsity cut leather jacket in an old air force style, with maybe a custom paint job on the back like the old school air force bombers

nylon flight jackets in solid colors are always in style for me, but I'd love to see these in more varied materials like wool or prinited nylon blends or anything else interesting. I'm also thinking about makng a little project for myself by sewnig a buch of gothic type rock and roll patches noto a classic black nylon flight jacket as well

as far as for the warmer fall days, I've been a track/ warm-up jacket junky and am extremely interested in Total sports exclusive jacket releases as well as mitchell and ness's track styled jackets and adidas classics who are adding sz'z 3x, 4x,5x, 3xlt, 4xlt , and 5xlt to their szing charts soon

I'm also always a fan of furs for the winter as well

Whats on ya'll guys minds though, I'm interested to hear what other genres are looking for for the upcoming seasons

yeah thanks both of ya'll, you've both been extremely helpful

I'm hoping they do a snorkle styled jacket with a fur collar of some sort for the winter, even though I'm sure its unlikely.

Worse to worse I cold take that style pictured to a furrier and have a fox or Cyote fur attachment made for them

can anyone tell me anything else about that material used on the jacket, or just interesting styles to look fowadr to this year for jackets

appreciated, anyone nkow anything about more varied styles then what grandism has?

also does anyone know any NYC retailers carrying the line?

Whats the company that makes those cashmere/goretex wonter jackets?

I've seen them before, but I can't recall the name of the brand. they come in mostly military type styles

also links to online stores that sell their products would be greatly appreciated

i think the hats have now statred the process, but no, no dunks

people always caer about what supreme is gonna put out, Thats why there are line up around there release time every season

it looks alotta like Nom de guerres islamic writing tee and smoe other brands tee taht has like some dude doing karate on it or something

pretty much any fitted hat interests me, I have about 300 of them

dunks not so much though, I own zero pairs

180-210 basically

yeah thats exactly what I mean

I saw that on ebay, I'm lookin for a 7 5/8s one in that exact color scheme

Quote: a fun game to play at hip-hop shows is 'spot the black guy

haaaaaaaa

does anyone know any places selling the company "famous stars and straps" fitted hat by new era?

thanks

excellent, thank you very much

just for my personal clariication what exactly are the differences as you all see them

I understand fully that straightleg means very simply a straight leg the same width all the way down, but what then is the defining detail of a boot cut?

I clearly understand they are cut for booys, but does that mean they have a small flare, small taper, just what is the defining concept?

thats just the biggest waist they make

I'm asknig for the baggiest cut they make

I'm shocked none of you supposed denim experts here can answer this question

whats the baggiest cut levis makes?

Quote: I saw some kickass jeans a few months ago at stackhouse that were non-selvage but felt amazing. The more people hype selvage jeans, the more companies will exploit this new trend and inflate the market with bullshit "selvage" jeans.

I also agree with the whole "don't give a fuck about the salesperson." I was down in haight st a few days ago trying on some stuff and the staff gave me negative looks after I walked out of the changing room w/ 6 things w/o buying them. Who cares about them.

hahaaahaah

I like this guys mindset

Quote: somebody forgot the rule of buy what you like and not what you can bandwagon on.

this guy too

i had em back when they were fashionable in hip hop

as far as shorts and wallees, well ghost did it before, I remember seeng photos ni the source or in an album cover or something

interesting read

I dno't even see consuming as bad, its more about people who have no understanding of how and why they consume

hahaaahah

I don't know what better terms to use then "urban" and "metro"

I'd love to know some other terms

i think the trend is to try to keep the urban and metro tastes seperate

its showing that quality is becoming more and more important to both sides, hence urban following metro as far as denim has gone. Metro however has a stigma about being associated with anything urban, so by eliminating opcket design they take a big urban desire out of their design, thus keepnig urban at a distance.

It is very true that urban simply has a greater desire for there to be a more standout visual component to their fashions, so wild back pocket designs, ie: evisu, seven, true religion re monkey, have atracted attention

I think this is most apparent on ST where people want to totally rip all the logos off the back pockets so nobody can know what you are wearing. I'm not a huge fan of that,but I feel I understand it, its like saying "don't worry what brand my jeans are, just look how amazing worn ni they are"

It is also because simplicity is becoming more common place in metro

yeah thats a good answer

I don't think we are quite on the same page. I'm basically trying to understand something I read in a blurb about the video chick Buffie the Body. She was talking about her butt, which is quite big, banging more like a mack truck to run with this threads terminology, saying she can't wear any jeans period without first taking them to a tailor to be made more ameanable to her backside. Maybe its stupid to wanna know, but a few girls I know would prolly be interested in knowing as to what they can do to have more "fashionable" jeans be more accessible to their body types.
