  1. I went to college in the Burgh (U Pitt).

     

    It's a fun city but it's America's Beirut, at least where the campus is, in Oakland.  Lots of crime, really skeezy.  Fun place to slum it up for 4 years and smoke a lot of weed though.

     

    I need to go back, apparently the city has changed a lot and it's like mini-Williamsburg now, like what herpsky is saying.  Probably some cool shit there now.

     

    Wouldn't want to live there though.  If I'm going to a small city then it's going to be somewhere warm.  If I'm going to get snowed on, I may as well be in Boston, NYC, or DC.

  2. I noticed that too. Ridiculous that the demand is driven by what hats he has and has not worn in public.

    I might order the black one, just because. I don't even wear hats though, I just like it for some reason.

  3. Store is still super slow.

    Didn't realize it wouldn't let me order 2 different colors of biggie tee, I wanted to fold@frame one and then wear one. Oh well.

    Velvet camps are still in stock, all other camps gone.

    Worker's parka must be a subsequent drop. I am disappoint.

  4. anyone even able to get in anymore?

    Not anywhere on the shop, and definitely not to checkout. I'm sure everything I put in my cart is gone by now.

    Which is fine, because honestly after 1-2 hours, the biggie tees and camp caps will all be gone but most of the rest of the collection will still be there.

    I *did* sort of want a biggie tee though, 90's teenager here.

  5. quality is better supposedly on the non-sale fabrics.

    fit is good if you measure your best fitting shirts correctly and make proper adjustments where needed.

    there has been stories of holes forming at the elbow (for the fabrics on sale).

    overall, a lot of people are satisfied and i am personally in the process of ordering.

    This is partially true. It doesn't matter whether or not the fabric is on sale, as plenty go on sale because the pattern is unpopular.

    The trick is to specify "2-ply", and you will get a much more durable product. The blue oxford for the demo shirt is a 2-ply fabric and is excellent, although I wish it was a coarser/heavier oxford.

    I like all of mine, and even my very first shirt was perfectly wearable and is still in my rotation. If you measure a shirt rather than your own body, there isn't much trial and error.

    Their biggest problem is fabrics only being available for a short period. Buying swatches is useless, because most fabrics disappear forever after a few weeks. You can only ever be guaranteed to get what is on the site at any given time, not what you may have seen weeks/months ago.

  6. Mkay, so I'm confused.

    Wasn't Kreayshawn supposed to be a black-carpet host at the VMA's? I admittedly only watched from like 8:20-9, but I sure as hell didn't see her.

  7. You can get MTM oxfords from ModernTaillor.com for like $60 shipped.

    I have several. Spread collars, club collars, BD's, etc. They're great.

    Don't try to measure yourself, get a shirt that already fits and send the garment measurements instead. Much easier to measure a shirt than your own body.
