  1. purchased an item online last week, it still has not been shipped, but now the item has gone on sale, ive emailed them asking for a refund of the difference as my order has not been processed yet but the item is now markedly cheaper, my credit card has been billed for the original amount.....

    do i have a leg to stand on?

     

    depends on the shop. I had the same experience with some German shops and they did not refund the difference. They offered me to place a second order for the reduced item and to send back (they paid for the return) the one I bought at regular price....lol

     

    Some other shops do refunds

  2. Found a beige..

    Why not contact Diemme direct as it looks like that's a special sole...

    I asked Viberg for their soles once and they sent them to me,for a small fee.

    Or maybe they know the product code..

     

    thanks. They come in beige, black and tobacco. I've already contacted Diemme IT and the German distributor without any response...

  3. Anyone know online shops with Common Projects WMNS line?

    probably a long shot, I have to resole my Diemme boots with a Vibram Betulla sole in white. Anyone know a product code or where to cop the sole? My cobbler wasn't able to find them in the official Vibram catalogue for 2013....

  4. We are hitting the Netherlands and Belgium in October for one week. We travel by car and we start from Dusseldorf (Germany) which approx. 1 hour away from Maastricht.

    We wanted to drive a round through Belgium and Netherland but we are not sure where to start first, so if it was necessary to skip places at the end of the tour.

     

    Any landscapes / places / villages / places / restaurants to stop by? Night stops will be arranged by airbnb or are there better ways?

     

    Any recommendations for beer and fries?

     

     

    Thank you a lot!

  5. I'm looking for a pair of black riding gloves for when it gets colder during the wintertime.  

    Obviously shit that looks good is a plus but I'm up for wearing strictly functional ones too (would have jumped on the nonnative ones but they were fingerless)

    Not rlly down with leather.

    Just to give an idea of what I'm looking for, this pair's pretty cool.

     

    so are these

     

     

    thanks

     

    what does winter means? Really cold winter or just like 10°C like in Rome? Either way, get something with windstopper/water resistant lining and ones which are called gloves for winter.

     

    Don't mess with Rapha leather town gloves. They look nice, they have a softshell liner and are functionally constructed but totally worthless below 5°C

  6. Hi, looking for the Margiela MoMu book (Maison Martin Margiela: 20: The Exhibition), I pretty much have everything else of note so it will be joining a nice MMM book collection:

    • 2000-1 by Mark Borthwick

    • Encens monographie

    • Street volume 1&2

    • Margiela by Margiela from Rizzoli

    • Cream 09: Maison Martin Margiela

    • A magazine curated by Maison Martin Margiela

    PM me with price and condition.

    Regards

    there is one on abebooks, but the pricing is kind of....well...

    edit: try eurobuch.com - better price but still wack

  7. I'm pretty n00b to anime, I just recently finished Samurai Champloo and loved it, thinking I'll watch Cowboy Bebop next.

    I've also seen Neon Genesis Evangelion, Beck Mongolian Chop Squad (favourite), Akira, and that's honestly about it beside Studio Ghibli movies. 

     

    Any recommendations as to what I should watch next? Still need to watch the Evangelion rebuilds.

     

    Manga wise, Beck is my all time favourite, and I've read so damn many its hard to keep them straight...Currently following Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Fairy Tale, Toriko, Bartender, and Addicted To Curry. Recent reads that I've enjoyed were Homunculus, Air Gear, and Yu Yu Hakusho. 

     

    Tried starting Soul Eater, not really into it, might try out Hunter x Hunter...

     

    some other basics should be Ghost in the Shell or Death Note. Psycho Pass was also really nice

  8.  

    winter is coming, and I have a good price.

    ?

     

    Vampy is right. Go for the Commando sole, preferably the black and heavy one. I got the tibet boots from last season with the light weight Vibram and I had to change the soles after one winter of daily wear, because they were done... (I am only weighing 135lbs)

  9. ^ purchased it but yo, shits are fucked up. bought them off 'poof', a member here, worn twice. In the three times i wore them though, those neon bits are cracking and peeling off / the front half of the right outsole is dangling off and you can see cracks in the outsole from weight-bearing cause the rubbers too brittle.

     

    fashunz ≠ functionality

     

     

    Quality of PE is very solid but in my experience the trousers run pretty slim. I had a w30 pant which doesn't fit around the tighs, while I am US34 in suits and w28 to w29 in denim.

  10. I've been using this wallet for the past 5 years or so and it's been pretty beat up. I'm looking for something similar, though can't find anything. It's basically a weekender/card case, but one side is open so that you can slip cash in and out quickly. (photo below)

     

    Anyone know of anything similar? (minimal, thin, few cards, and some cash)

     

    Cheers.

    Isaac Reina, there should be some left @ ln-cc sale

  11. sweat stains would depend on the used material but as far as my experience reaches there should be nothing to worry about. 

    The one thing I would be more concerned about is reflection or distraction by incident lighting, due to the transparent frame. This is a knock out criteria for me, but I have some poor eyesight.
