  1. Could i get some advice on how i should go about cropping the ankles on my pair of under armour sportswear shell trousers?

    I love the material on them and they have great utility/usability, however they're a little too long and would like to give them a bit more of the carrot look.

    Was thinking about cutting open the cuff and pushing webbing through it, then using a cam buckle or ladderloc to keep it in place, allowing me to have the cropped or open leg depending on weather. First picture is what they are like now, second picture is the ideal look.

    Any help is hugely appreciated! I'm very much a newcomer to modding my own clothing and don't want to just go about ruining trousers I already am a huge fan of.

  2. A heads up for anyone who bought the bucket hat, it looks like it no longer comes with a face mask as shown in previous images.

    Mine has arrived in post today, thought it was a factory defect but Nike have since removed images from their site including the mask so looks like this was just a mistake at launch.

    On the bright side, quality is not bad on the hat itself. Shame about the mask though as that was a major part of why i picked it up, would have otherwise gone with the cap

    I agree, they don't seem to have a really substantive feel. I'm guessing the ripstop material on the tongue/upper is the same as that used in the 3 in 1 cap? Also I'm finding that the ripstop sort of wrinkles up and you can't really easily straighten them out. I think the cord tension only really shapes the shoe anterior-posterior and doesn't do much laterally, and the buckle only does so much. 

    Does anyone have any first-hand experience with the cargo pants or the hoodies?

    Totally agree on the ripstop, i think they just needed to either use a thicker material, or something that just keeps its shape a bit better. That being said, i absolutely adore the chunky buckle on it.

    1/2 size big or full size big? I imagine it would be designed to be a looser fit, right?

    (not like I am going to be able to get a pair anyways at this rate with them selling out in a minutes everywhere)

    I'd say go half a size down, but i like a snug fit. for reference:

    Ultra Boost 2.0: UK 10.5 (fits perfect)

    Air Force 1: UK 10 (fits perfect)

    Yeezy 350 V2: UK 10 (snug)

    Spiridon: UK 9.5 (too snug)

    I went with a UK 10, but could have easily gone down half a size. Going to try my local nikelab, hopefully will have some luck and can return these online

  5. KMTR's just arrived, went with my true size and they're totally too big.

    Is anyone else surprised with how they feel in hand? They just feel a little flimsy imo, granted they were one of the cheaper pieces from the collection, i guess i just raised my hopes a little too high

    Definitely detachable, but I don't think you'll be putting the flaps in the pocket unless you want to look like you've got a brain tumor or something.

     

    I agree tho, the cap is the only thing I'm going to be buying if I get the chance to snag one.

    Do you think stock will be that limited to get? I know the cap is one of the lower priced pieces, but i've been on counting on the clothing to sit at least until sale so i can get for a better price

     

    That or idiotic hypebeast kids buying hoping to make that juicy resell $$$
