currently?

45rpm Sorahiko slims - I too lust over most 45rpm jeans, but prefer slimmer-fitting cuts than most of the ones that are offered.

Iron Hearts 21oz - Heavy denim. "mmmmmm"

Finally, the Japanese 19cm dior glitter-lurex that I purchased from Hugtherapist. - Exclusivity, cut, wash, and the fact that the glitter is really subtle; hardly visible in the daytime, but at night under a streetlight ... wow.

Slowdive - When the Sun Hits

good one.

swervedriver - duress

^^haha nice one bringing it back up red.

ozawa who?!?

dizon is furthest from distinctly filipino. so the attraction to dizon is that she looks japanese. like maria. done and done.

Maria looks japanese? Now I know you're trippin. She looks closer to filipino than Dizon does.

I wouldnt say Dizon looks japanese either, shes something else... Ethereal I think is fitting. Hot damn.

As far as putting Campo into the mix...

Dizon> Campo >>>>>> Ozawa

I'm sorry, some of you guys are nuts. Dizon all the way, and this coming from someone who generally prefers any other asian girl over Filipino ones. And this is coming from a purely aesthetic standpoint. Yes, all asian ethnic groups have a certain distinguishing "look" to them, and I tend not to be attracted to girls who look distinctly Filipino.

UW!!! thats the chemestry building in the back ground... bagley? fuck organic chem.

Chill out. I've got just the prescription:

I happen to like chem/ o-chem.

I really hate it when seller's arent on the ball when it comes to shipping shit out, especially when something this pricey is at stake.. Im always very prompt with payment using CC with paypal, so I expect reciprocity and the same degree of expeditiousness from the other end.

BTW I doubt a PS3 would be a reliable Blue-ray player

I would hope that they are considering that they are co-pioneering the technology.

that makes no sense.

- when I bought mine, I needed help buttoning them up

- after 1 day they had already loosened up and were ok to wear

Entirely agree. I just recently picked up the japanese raw black 19's and took me 1 day (roughly about 8hrs worth of wearing) and they dont feel nearly as tight as they did when I put them on the next day. The thighs may be the exception, but that's because I've got some large thighs, but they dont even hug in the knee and calf region anymore. So much so that it doesnt "stack" in those aforementioned areas anymore, but rather have fallen to the ankles now. Makes me wonder if I should have tried to go down another inch.

what kind of jacket is that, wPeace?

would like to know as well. wow thats really nice.

In the end it's fat, middle-aged, 5'5 barrel chested guys who look like Microsoft engineers getting fitted for Dior Homme suits by their chickenhead wives... I saw some old slob following his (milf) wife around a supermarket once, wearing some McQueen'ish shirt with skulls all over it, with golf shorts and plastic shower slippers... I dunno what it is about this country but the fat motherfucking head syndrome/microsoft engineer look is rampant....

^^^ Hahaha my boss from my previous job was exactly like that with her husband, who was, also about 5'5 and barrel chested. One husband to make the money, and one wife to know how to spend it (well?). Koreans, gotta love 'em.

Thats a really hard shoe to not like. I think its awesome he wears them so often.

Yeah, alot of people think I'm crazy when I comment on them. With sneakers, I generally prefer them more narrow and streamlined, probably because I'm a bit flat-footed . In most cases, I think bigger, clunkier basketball shoes feel out of place (when worn with jeans) for streetwear and should be reserved for the courts, which is why I was taken aback when I saw chard's waywt post today. A true exception in my book -- maybe it was the color coordination or the fit of the jeans, or a combination of the two that managed to smoothen out the clunky-ness and made it look superdope.

On a sidenote, rocking paratroopers pegged mid-calf a-la-milspex also helps to accomplish this feat.

Edit- oops shoulda just posted in the post above sorry

she's so hot, haha

Sweet.

wow nice! i might have to pick up some for myself.

Thought they might be interesting to share for everyone who might be interested in alternatively styled Vans slip-on and Chuck styled shoes. Anyone know where I can pick these up around the LA area? Ive already checked about half of the stockists listed on the site (American Rag, Redshoes, Fred Segal, Coolestshop) but to no avail.

I think that approach only works if you really are a rock star...

^^

nice shoes, especially the grams. airjamie, where'd you find those?

I saw both versions of those grams in American Rag in LA. Im more curious about those jeans...

see i love the droopy crotch... its a nice change from the super slim

Would you be able to move around properly with such a crotch? Im thinking it would mess up peoples' walking/running strides or something. :confused:

^^ Hahahaha. My neuroanatomy Lab TA needs to get that memo. For a moment there I thought I time-warped back to HS sex ed.

I dig the fit, esp with the wrist tapers. The only thing that bugs me are the button-clasps, despite it being a zip-up. Would have been alot nicer if they used the same buttons used on the wrists/epaulettes but I guess you cant argue for $75 .

Is there a dior homme store in LA?

Here you go:

309 N Rodeo Dr

Beverly Hills, CA 90210

(310) 859-4700

Just stopped by there yesterday to pick up the Japanese 19cm raw blacks. Met Sean and Cort there, really nice people. If you wind up going, tell them youre from superfuture as well, heh.

I'm liking the Archive jacket myself. Cant wait for the lifts to open.

Beautiful and functional, schweeeet.

the leg holster a lot, leg holster is something that I could use ..

sorry I couldnt resist...

Is that you?
