  1. So I have these Cheap Monday Tight Fashion Dark Grey, but I dont know what to do with them. I have not been wearing these ones frequently so not much happened yet.

    But was thinking about maybe starching them, someone else with any advice?

    I don't think that grey jeans really fade in any sort of interesting way...starching them might make them too brittle - get holes.

  2. oh... i havent' had a pair of dickies in like 5 years since the oi years... didn't realize they quit making them that way.

    It's too bad they stopped because the waists are ridiculously tight on those pants, compared to how big the legs are. I've had better luck with generic brand work pants fit-wise.

    On this topic, does anyone have any suggestions for slimmer work-type pants?

  3. they dont' really stretch out like denim does, but you can let dickies out about 1.5" in the waist. you have to pull the rear seam. do this before you wash it or the outside fabric will fade and you will have a weird ass stripe down the back.

    On all of my older dickies you can do this but on a newer pair I have you can't, I dunno when they changed it though.

  4. Ridding myself of items that don't fit, more later this week if all goes well.

    Eternal 811 size 32 - One wash - $200

    I took the tags off and wore these for about half an hour while deciding whether they fit or not. Still wrinkly and stiff as hell. Unfortunately too big for me, need a 31 or 30. Asking $200 shipped. I'd say these fit someone who usually takes a 31 or 32, or a 30 in APC sizing.

    Sugarcane Red Buffalo Check Workshirt Size Medium - $65

    I wish that this fit me so bad, unfortunately it is just too big. Really nice thick cotton twill fabric, durable seams throughout and sideseam gussets to prevent rippage. Sold out from stores. Very nice shirt, washed once after I wore it around the house for a bit to determine fit. $65 shipped.

    I apologize for the lack of pics, I don't have a digital camera at the moment. I might be able to borrow one later in the week. If anyone wants both items I'll give them a deal; $250 shipped. PM me for any info or measurements.

  5. fucking carrols.............................. damn i want a pair again... had the white in highschool and loved them so much... its really the perfect skate shoe. half cabs cut a bit higher with a padded tongue and you cant bust the laces.

    Yeah but you could bust the lace loops, they were cheaply made. Then you couldn't tie your shoe no more and had to permanently shoe goo the lace in there like I did...ha.

  6. there was this oldschool Real video I watched back in the day, was one of the first videos I saw...

    Tommy Guerero

    Kelly Bird

    Mark Gonz

    Hufnagel

    Quim and Mike Cardona

    some others.. and my favorite part was Drake Jones... would loooove to see that video again

    It's called non-fiction, and it is really funny to me that anyone could refer to a video that came out in 1996 as 'old school'. Good video though.
