kid. your encyclopedia of knowledge gleaned from hypebeast.com doesn't impress people here, and it certainly doesn't impress people in the Town.

Bwhahah. I moved past Hypebeast brands (Yes, I know that Supreme can be considered one, but I'm referring to The Hundreds, C&C, basically 80% of the brands sold at GOODs, etc etc.) months ago. Why do you think I'm posting here?

And I didn't gain my knowledge from hypebeast.com. (Have you ever read the HB forums? Kids on there don't even know who futura is or what selvage denim is.) I gained it on my own terms.

Also I still stand by what I said. You can't honestly say that more than 100 high schoolers in Seattle know what selvage denim actually is.

Laugh all you want, but the second quote is the absolute truth.

EDIT: BTW, as for my age, I am a senior in hs.

How much USD for the sammys?

Goddamn the exchange rate blows these days.

Bali's the last place you want to go right now. Unless you want to be killed by a bunch of muslim extremists. Thailand's probably your best bet. Hell if you're nice enough you can bring one of the rub and tug girls back home with you.

Just curious if any of you ever read the artical in Rolling Stone about Pete Doherty. I read it and I thought that it was fantastic. It was certainly one of the better Rolling Stone articles from this year.

i'm so embarassed that this kid is from seattle.

Get off of your fucking high horse.

I'm obviously a sales demographic, but don't act like you're not. Most kids my age wear Abercrombie and Fitch or LRG. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone else my age in the city who knows as much about streetwear and the culture behind it than me.

If you really want to be embarrassed than you should take a walk on down to Capitol 1534 and take a look at any of the kids that walk in their on a daily basis. Hell, go to GOODs and take a look at 80% of the customers that walk into their store on a daily basis. Oh and while you're at it. Go fuck yourself.

I did see some people criticize him, but the fact that many people compliment him is what I'm really getting at.

DUM I'm not so sure about that.

dope fits, LOCh, cweak, x666x and fish!

Fishscale- In my opinion, your best fit ever. Everything fits in very nicely, and that Freshjive hat kills all competition. The best fit of the month hands down.

And there are many more, but I am too lazy to dig them up.

I wish that I could have seen the Libertines live. They are probably the best band of the past 6 years.

So this guy posts on the Hypebeast waywt thread everyday and the guys on there are always all over his nuts.

How do I prevent my denim from dying my shoes?

As Air Macks mentioned, UNDFTD will no longer be getting Japanese release Visvims, but rather the U.S. line when it launches early next year. Union is the only place in L.A. stocking Visvim right now and they will continue to get the Japanese line in the future.

As far as getting older models:

Your best bet would be to check the Chapterworld website and ask user 2000db to check some of the Tokyo Chapter stores and buy them through him...........

Also don't forget http://www.am-firmament.com/

Hmmm. I wonder if LA Avenue's new venture in LA, RIF, will be consigning Visvims...

^^ Anytime this guy posts about opinions on shirts... and see his icon... I find it very funny. VERY FUNNY!

Right. Because I'm the only person on this board who wears Supreme and/or Neighborhood. Get over it.

Don't get it. When I was in Boston last April I saw two different asian hypebeasters wearing it with pairs of Bapestas. Then a few days later I was in New York at NDG and I spoke with Wil from NDG about it. He said that because of kids like that you'll never see NDG make anything all-over print again.

Yes. I love my black MacBook (and The Departed).

Wow. After reading this thread I will never EVER purchase a RS tee. (Thank god I never have.)

Thank you very very much England for turning me on to their backwards (and clearly very poorly researced) political messages.

Just to fuel the EDC hate. He made Futura's photo blog today.

I have a question about HK as well. Is sneaker street legit? Because I was under the impression that everything on that street was fake.

yeah he might be one of the dude from clot, but he leads the way, u think the rest of the cats on the team would even make it to a mag if it wasn't for him? if the the dudes make it to star-dome with out edison, i will give them some recognition, it just seem to be that the rest of the team is just his entourage

Listen man I agree. I don't like Edison as much as the next guy. But to deny that CLOT is a talented and profitable design/lifestyle firm just because the guy that funded it is a "fucktard" (to quote Milspex) is bordering on ignorance. I guarentee with you that Edison has not been behind the creative process of anything that CLOT has designed. He simply backs the company and for that I actually congratuale EDC. I salute him for funding a company that promotes creativity. In my opinion the CLOT design team has made the best looking Lacoste polo ever, the best pair of Air Maxes money can buy, and a great retail space in Hong Kong that, despite what you think about HK culture, has helped to promote a lifestyle that I myself participate in on a daily basis.

Thanks for the help guys. Really appreciate it. I'm going to be in LA for about a week starting the day after Christmas.

The other thing that bothered me about Roppongi is that you come accross a bunch of Japanese people who try to act like Americans. The waitress in the restaurant I went to there (don't ask how I ended up there) kept calling me "dude" and "bro." It was really just embarrasing.

It's kind of like when you go to a Chinese restaurant in the States and a bunch of white people bow to the hostess as they leave the restaurant.

Think about it this way. How many people that wear the selvage they buy from the GAP, Macy's, etc., are actually going to cuff their jeans? Honestly I wouldn't worry about it.

Get a pair of Moires. They're are cheaper and the look better.

fuck edison chen, he is such a fuck face ( everytime he pose for photo, he look like he just got done takig it in in the ass), his dad is so filty rich, how do u think he broke into the entertaining biz? fuck him and his crew! that levi's collabo is horrible.

hey edison, i hope you are fucking reading this, you fucking suck, and your crew swallows. and make sure you fucking tell every single one of them that shit. better yet, if i see you i'll tell you that shit my self

Woah. Hate hate hate. Frankly Edison doesn't care what you think so whine all you want man.

Secondly, yes I agree that he is a fuck face, but don't hate on CLOT. Edison is just one piece to the CLOT puzzle. There are a few other partners. Also there was more than one Levi's collabo and some of them were very cool IMO.
