  1. Strut Man is a consignment store focused on fairly sufu approved stuff. Havent checked it out yet though because it's pretty far from where I live/go to school. Their womens store which is a bit more central looks ok. No way in the same league as some of the NY consignment spots though.

     

    sam - Last time I needed a hotel I stayed at the one across from the Hilton near Kings Cross, cant remember the name but it was about £100/night with free wifi. Small but decent room that got the job done. Good tube/bus connections to just about anywhere and its on the 205 night bus path which is great because late night cab prices in london are insane.

     

    Do all the museums on weekdays, many of the best ones are free and won't be crowded then. Go to markets on the weekend. Eat at St John. Breakfast Club is nice, the one by Liverpool St tends to have much shorter lines than the one in Shoreditch. Skip burgers and stuff like that, America is better at that. Dirty Burger is pretty good but it's owned by the Soho House people and fuck giving those guys any money. Get Indian, Bangladeshi and Caribbean food instead. 

  2. Anyone who thinks Undercover is high quality is delusional. I love the UC stuff that I have, but none of it is made from high quality materials or particularly well constructed. For example the two tone mohair sweater that the JohnUNDERCOVER one is based on is both extremely scratchy/uncomfortable and one of the most fragile things I've ever seen. I've also handled a lot of the womens stuff at Dover Street Market and elsewhere, and again I like it, but it's not high quality for something of that price/status.

     

    I agree with Will, this is boring but if it pays the bills for Jun's runway shows then I don't mind it.

  3. Ann Demeulemeester Weekend Bag

     

    Not sure which collection, maybe 2008 or 2009?

    Heavy Cowhide. None of that soft leather, this is tougher than most leather jackets.

    Size is adjustable using the side buckles. Smallest size is similar to a large womens bag, largest size just barely fits carry-on restrictions for flights. This isn't a bag for your MacBook Air, you can easily fit a weekend worth of winter clothes in here including a spare pair of shoes.

     

    Two inner side pockets with leather trim, each about the size of a paperback. One all-leather outer pocket, fits a passport.

    Some wear (but not damage) at the bottom as visible in the last pic, otherwise in great condition.

     

    Buy this for your girlfriend if she's cool enough to wear it, or just for yourself. Take it on flights as a carryon to look like a pimp. If you're a student, use it as a laundry bag to drop panties in the dorm.

     

    Bought for €1500. Had the handles reinforced at Superior Leather (best leather repair/alteration shop in New York) which cost another $150. The handles are now five layers of heavy duty leather.

    asking €600 ($800) shipped in Europe (payment by bank transfer)

    or $900 shipped worldwide (payment by paypal)

    Prices include shipping with tracking.

     

    First picture shows the color accurately, later ones are overexposed to show detail.

  5. if the last week or two are indicative of the direction sufu is going, i'm out, and not just until jmatsu inevitably get unbanned for a while. i had a long post by my standards typed up but the essence of it was that your intrusive moderation is bitchmade.

    i doubt you'll miss me, so feel free to brush it off. but you're not representative at all of the people who post here, which is why this place is still going.

    those who haven't spoken out yet for the most part don't like you either. they just don't want to argue with you because every time people do, it becomes messy and people get banned for hurting your feelings or some shit like that.

    peace out
