i moved from austin years ago, its still my favorite place on earth. not a shopping city by any means, i dont know why youd fool yourself about it, either. best thing to do is make friends and take advantage of the lax drug use policies, and beautiful parks and swim holes, etc. the place to shop now looks like factory people on congress, if you are really dying for some "labels".

i have a pretty insane sweats collection. far and above, uniqlo rocks it best (19 bucks for any color). after that, a 9 dollar joe boxer black crew from k-mart. that's day to day wear though, not sure if you wanted something more unique.

wow on one hand im glad i dont wear animal products, on the other im just so so so sad cuz nobody will ever make a shoe this nice without using leather or something else. just want to end it all.
(i asked about it in the first place just cuz i thought they might be canvas)

just humble opinion but i base a lot of my decision to patronize a place on how much i actually enjoy going there. ^^^

this sale is officially closed. rajiv pointed out that the books are still actually available for sale on the shift site. i honestly thought some were long out of print and rare. but, they are all available. you could land all of them for about 500 bucks. apologies. i guess i will hang on to these and let them gather some dust.

i think from last season or the season before...just want more info on them. esp. materials, or similar shoes, even. i love the super slim sole and general understatedness of the stitching and details.

dunno why people keep pointing to canal street, not an open market anymore for fake shit after the big nypd crackdown last spring. that sweater is fantastic though

Look no further:
Cooperstown ballcap company. Vintage ball caps from all eras and you can get them in any color with or without logs. They are fitted and come with your choice of cotton or soft deerskin leather liner (which I highly recommend). I own several and can vouch for their quality and comfort.
i was looking for no logos and no leather, remember

if anybody is still interested in these, i just found really cheap and perfect ones at H+M for 2.99 on the accessories rack. plain colors: yellow, red, navy blue. adjustable cloth strap, metal buckle. completely solid, no logos or embroidery of any kind.
wish they'd had one in khaki or black though.

How much and how much is shipping to the UK please.
Rajiv has dibs so far, I have to be honest and talk it through with him first. If he bails, you will be next to talk to.

not that its relevant to your question, but i want to come out and say that ive bought a lot of uniqlo lately, and the quality of their other products (wide range from socks to sweatshirts) is excellent. i'd gamble on a suit of theirs. originally, i was going to get an H+M suit to have around, but H+M construction can be really unforgivably sloppy.
id be curious about a uniqlo suit too, i just dont recall seeing any in the flagship store...is it a japan only thing?

before my thread got hijacked....
i am only selling these as a complete set. its unfair really, but i have no car in LA and don't want to keep hauling to the post office for seperate trips.

out of curiosity, what is this exactly?
free bumb
thanks.
shift (shift.jp.org) is a design resource, one of the most old school ones
for design after 1990. they have a wing called Gas shop, which has artist
goods. Gas books, then, are monographs of certain studios, basically
work overviews of lesser known but highly influential design houses.
for instance: tomato, work in progress, blue source all have a gas book
of their own, about 100 pages, hardcover, with full color images of lots
of their work, plus interviews and other material relevant to the firm.
(as im describing it im wondering again why im selling these, but then
i remember i just need money and don't want them around to plagiarize from)
i will bump this thread once more when i take pictures and include
a complete title list of all the books.
background on why i have these: they were given to me by the distributor
of shift's titles in the USA, as payment and research material for a catalog
i was designing for them. i was glad to get the books, but because i am constantly
on the move between the east and west coast, they've sat unread in my closet
forever along with a ton of other design junk that i should sell off here.
nobody seems interested though.
