what do you throw on when the lights go low?

is it fair to say that 2009 was one of the worst years for music in a long, long time?

Holy shit @ Florsheim Imperial Kenmoors. Y'all sleepin way hard with your $500 Alden collaborations. Goodyear welt, beautiful shape and leather, heavy (in a good way), and really solid construction for $180.

Why no love? B/c they're not made in the USA or featured in Inventory magazine?

What a poor excuse you Pinoys have for hamburgers. Cheez Whiz?? Shit, I dont even want to know what that meat topping is. Patty looks thinner than a McD's burger too.

I need a backpack too, altadena looks alright but not the best, any alternatives? there's a lot of these cool north face ones but no leather bottom.

fuck a leather bottom... that one looks dope

im lucky enough to now be able to cop aldens at 20% off COST. soooo

alden long boat wingtips

or

red brick sole blue suede oxfords

or

wait and get both?

a: what is a boat wingtip?

b: where does alden sell blue suede red brick jawns?

c: hook a brotha up

florsheim for sure

just copped off zappos for $180. run quick while they still got 'em.

what the hail, no scotch grain tossups, get the fuck out of here. Get Alden longwing suedes and save us the questions, shit.

shits is both grain. i dont roll with suede in this city, not for $400 shoes at least

that apolis shirt is horrendous. isn't workwear "over" anyway?

florsheim imperial longwings($225 and very solid quality)

or alden longwings at twice the price (and possibly too narrow)

kinda digging these from LL Bean:

Goodyear welt, made in USA, waterproofed. looks pretty good for the price ($180)

red wing round-toes (at around $150)

or some steed out jap vibergs (at around $400)

Not till the end of 2010 when they produce more.

I'm assuming you checked our online stock and SENY.

i checked online and figured the stock there mirrored SENY's. i'll holler at them tomorrow about a 40 or 42. tks.

if a sz 36 regular 501xx is snug on me, will a '67 505 in 38 fit ok?

after 2 years and at least 10 washes, my 0500's are still shrinking. does this make sense?

Hey Kiya - are you getting any more of the BR CPO shirts?

^^ who is that???!

Shit, i know there's a decent thread about oxford shirts somewhere around these parts, but the new search functions are absolute garbage and I couldn't find it.

I figured we could make a new thread to cover the jawn coppers and us peasants that need to debate Uniqlo purchases and such. Pros/Cons, accessibility, wear-ability (long tails, etc), price-quality-fit ratios, and so on.

Brooks Bros Black Fleece is probably the most underrated shirt around these parts. I'm not sure if the stodgy stigma of BB throws off the SuFu contingent, but these can usually be copped at discount, and the quality/fit are both very spot on.

The new Brooks Bros extra-slim fit has gotten some shine here but i haven't had the chance to check them out in person. BB's oxford shirt quality is always top notch and these look very impressive for the price. Based on previous posts, it seems they shrink up nicely after a wash or two but sadly are only fit for the tucked in look due to the shirt tails.

Enough's been said about the Uniqlo oxford. They've really dumped it the past few seasons by trimming productions costs to maintain/lower the price point. Fit and price are great but the fabric is absolute garbage since the first spot-on run a few years back..

I just stumbled upon the Land's End Canvas Collection, which pretty much looks like a half-assed attempt to cash in on the trad/Americana wave of the past 3 years. They have a cheap oxford that looks promising, for the price. Anyone here have experience with it? Based on the model's pics, they might have mucked up the cut, especially in the sleeves. If i can find a free shipping code or something i might order myself one.

Feel free to add your findings/comments.

New grey ones now

shade of grey looks way too light. they need to darken that up, darken up the tan/browns, get a pair of navy's in the mix and then we're talking.

You must understand dressing for the occasion.

You wouldn't wear a jacket like that to a job interview for a bank, would you?

I'm an investor I dress a certain way when I'm doing errands during the day in case I meet up with clients, meet new ones, etc.

There's a time and place to gaudy clothing when you have to dress like a suit by trade. Do you disagree? Do you have a daily dress code yourself for your career?

wait... so that means you must be at least 25... an you wear bape and evisu sneakers?

visvim tradesman jacket is on sale from 898 to 798.

wtaps varsity jacket was paper thin. i expected it to be all brolic like the wool tracker.

anyone here have the post overalls c-post chambray work shirt?
