Icarus

Shark is dressed by his mother.

Shark's diet consists of 87% mayonnaise and 13% Skoal.

Shark once sat on the stick-shift of his father's 1973 Buick Century Regal.

Shark does not regret this incident.

Shark is notoriously bad at keeping his pet goldfish from dying, despite his best efforts and can-do attitude.

Shark has such a high level of testosterone that he has has to shave his forehead twice a day.

Shark has never been in a duel.

Speaking of Smedley: is this a black or a charcoal? I can't figure it out for the life of me.

oOmegaOo those are gorgeous, nuts to everyone else.

I hate everyone here for seeing Do Make Say Think, they cancelled their Boston show a while back.

I would suggest getting a pair of the costellos then, its a 100% cotton slack. The colordrives are meant to be hyper-tight.

I realize that, hence the sizing up. I'm trying to avoid the trousers look, and the grey is the vital necessity.

I wasn't looking TOO closely, but the difference didn't seem to be worth mentioning. It's hard to tell when you're sizing down and the jeans sit up higher on your hips because they haven't stretched out yet, so I could be wrong, but there was nothing drastically different.

How far out of whack is the waist going to be? An inch, two?

Yeah, I'm really trying to avoid the leggings look, these would be used in a dressier role.

19".

Uh oh, I think we may have a problem; I'm 6'3" so that inseam ain't gonna' cut it. Are all the inseams standard?

On the colordrives:

I'm a size 30 waist, 28 in New Standards, and I have very skinny legs. Should I size up to a 31 for a more relaxed fit in the legs or should I keep at 30? Go to 32?

I assume the inseam is 34", is this correct?

I sized down three and the waist stretched back to comfort (I wear a thirty, generally).

There wasn't as much stretching in calves, so I wouldn't reccomend sizing down too much if you don't have chicken legs.

The theme at school is super heroes. I'll be going as "Generic Thug"

Black Pants

Black Shirt

Black Leather Jaket

Panty-hose pulled over head

Lead pipe.

Either aged-red combat boots or black chucks. Should I go for all black or should I go in big boots?

Hel Looks is incredible, thanks for the link.

One of the great photographs in American culture, for sure. I think Carl fucked around and came out with a classic without knowing it. Mark my words: Your (everybody) grandkids will be lookin at this in their journalism classes 80 years from now.

All for a WAYWT shot!

I wear AKGs because I like looking like a spaceman. "Here comes that goddamn spaceman," everyone says.

The Ms should travel down the legs. That'd even up the PS job.

England, those aren't them. The shoes in the video have a different lacing set up, look at the sides where the laces end.

It's not that they're baggy that Sam, DD, and Rirawin were on about, it's that they balloon as soon as they get to your thighs which looks terrible with a high-waisted pair of pants. The fit in the seat is good, but the legs look very off. They might look better when they fall to fit, who knows.

And yes, by all means get them hemmed, there is far too much stacking going on which just accentuates the balloon effect.

Gotta' give some love to Teen Idles.

I think they look best rolled to the elbows with tighter black pants, like Aprill 77 Dischords, but that's just my personal aesthete, I lean slightly towards scene.

Holy cow. If only I needed another pair of jeans...

Simply gorgeous, maybe the model pictures will sway me (want to see how tight those Rakers are). I absolutely adore the customizable pocket lining.

Borat? That would be FAR cooler.

Very few things are cooler than Boris, Borat is not one of those things.

Hahaha- great call on the index finger.

Find a thrift store, not a retail jobbie.
