  1. Funny article. There are/were several designers, who developed good looking but cheap and ingenious modular furniture designs, but who's names never get mentioned.

    The Eames lounge and ottoman is uncomfortable, so is the barcelona and stacks of others; beautiful designs though. It blows my mind that a lot of 20s to 50s architecture and design still looks more modern than anything since.

  2. Do you guys recommend they fit perfect in the waist or slightly loose when raw/pre-soak?

    Can't say how much the 710s stretch but an inch is an inch. Right now, if you sit them how you plan to wear them, can you pull the top button hole an inch past the button? That should tell you if you can size down one more without regretting it.

  3. i am hungry.

    will you make me a sandwich?

    Too late I guess.. but I was going to ask for a beer.

    On a more serious note, why does the following excite me?

    Also, I'd wear those undies if someone bought them for me.

  4. What all suburbs are these stores in, these shops you're all talking about?

    All close to the city centre, up to 5 to 10 mins walk from each other. Look at the superfuture shopping map for Sydney. Don't get your hopes up if you're planning to visit, the selection isn't that great.

  5. not trying to hate but i honestly don't see what's so special with those anyone care to explain?

    ^ we posted at the same time. i agree. i honestly dont see much fading at all

    I don't know how much post processing was done on those pics but if the colour is realistic then to me those jeans are at the perfection stage, like a properly exposed photo. There's just the right ammount of indigo loss to get nice contrast without looking washed out. They still look like they have no colour loss in some parts and completely gone in others.

  6. for hedi slimane suits, don't eat for two weeks prior to wearing it, and drink only minimal amounts of water.

    Don't knock the slimane suits. It's the only thing that fits me off the rack, everything else is way too wide across the chest and shoulders. So I'm SOOL until someone else starts making decent suits for normal size people or I get something made up in Honkers.

    No socks, a sawn off shutgun, or splash of colour are better accessories than a cane or sneakers. And for fuck's sake people, learn to colour coordinate. If you're white get a black man as your partner, and if you're black, you need to find a well dressed white man. It won't work otherwise.

  7. Yes, because every single American soldier is an emotionally unstable sadist, a degenerate armed lunatic with sociopathic tendencies that probably stem from desensitization, a violent upbringing, and a poor temperment. (0)

  8. Would one's 0500 size be the same as their 5000vx size? I'm yearning for a pair of the contest jeans, but I've only tried on the 5000's (unwashed) at (one of the 3) Hinoya. As I recall the 30's fit almost ideally pre-wash, so I figured I'd get 31's, but I wonder if I should get that same size in the 0500's.

    The Zero denim on the S5000VXs stretches a lot, if you tried on a pair and they fit perfectly in the waist raw, buy 'em, soak 'em, wear 'em, and they will stretch a little past raw sizing in the waist after a few days. If you want slight taper, higher rise front and back, and texas cotton, get the 0500s.

  9. the chair is fucking cool, but so underused in my home. it needs to be repaired (leather is cracking, chair is pretty old. ~40-some-odd years)

    My favouritest pieces of furniture of all time. I lusted after the lounge & ottoman for the longest time. Then actually sat in one. :( I still can't get over it.
