Was thinking how he'd fit perfectly into a Ghost In The Shell scenario.

 

Now I want Production I.G. to collaborate with William Gibson and have an anime based on Zero History. 

[WillKhitie]

Yes, even this.

 

[WillKhitie]

Back to topic though–found a Vimeo account with a lot of the CCP stuff in it.

Also holy fuck those pumas ^ are so awesome.  What are they called?

[Brainboy]

I'm all into techwear, Gibson, Metal Gear, etc. but I just don't get it.

[MoreToasties]

I'm not sure if I'd wear it out but this would be fantastic for cycling:

I dont think I'd wear it around town, but that looks just incredibly badass for day hikes / climbs where you really don't wanna carry anything at all except bare essentials and still be mobile and not off balanced.

 

EDIT: Fuck! You guys are enablers... and yea maybe I would wear it around town .

 

Yeah I'm struggling with that too. Worth a shot at the very least, it's not too pricey.

 

 

Looks like CCP is doing some interesting things with Tyvek. I might pick up a thing or two and report back.

What's there to "get"?

x-post from Nike thread:

 

 

Restock on the black/white flyknit trainer+. They may be past their prime but for those still looking to get a pair this is a much better deal than eBay.

What're people's takes on the new Veilance cargos? 

[Igneousity]

You mean the cuts or how they display them on models? Because if the latter I'd be inclined to agree.

 

I wish the Acronym P-10-S pants were available anywhere in black/small.

[shoreman]

Yeah, everything about their styling sucks. 

 

Looking to kop a medium Align SFT from this past season in Black.

Some Gore-Tex sneakers on Huckberry today:

Anyone have experience with them?  Thinking about grabbing a pair.

[firstdoorontheleft]

Did we ever weigh in on the Nike Chenchukka QS for tech footwear? I'm actually super fond of the below two colorways?

 

And does anyone own a pair of Zoom Meriwethers? I've got a pair I'm eyeing but I don't know if they're worth the loot.

Well depending on your shoesize you can grab the second pair for a bargain £47.50 ( US$ 85ish ) From Hanon :

I quite like them but have not even worn my Okwahn II's properly yet so could not justify - oh, also I wear a US12 so that also be, quite literally, a stumbling point !!!

 

They hark back to th glory days of ACG in my eyes of the mid-late 90's when things were quite interesting.

 

I'd would say purchase if the price is right.

 

Check this colourway too, they might also appeal http://www.hanon-sho...nchukka-tz.html

Same price as the others. Happy shopping.

Check your pm, hoping medium will suit you ?

Just in case there are any Disaeran fans out there, theres a seater up on the bay for peanuts right now.

 

worth checking out http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Disaeran-Acronym-Stone-Island-Shadow-Project-crewneck-sweater-size-M-/161238722233?pt=US_CSA_MC_Sweaters&hash=item258a93a6b9

 

 

( I am in no way related to the auction for the record )

Those Chenchukka Qs are hideous in my opinion ... 

[piece keeper]

I like the Chenchukka, but the only colorway I really like is that brown/purple-blue. Sadly don't think it fits in with most of my clothes. They're still available on NDC.

 

I have a pair of the Meriwethers and they're extremely beefy, warm, pretty much as waterproof as you need for rain, not sure about snow, and feel ultra comfortable. Got them for a song via ebay.

 

Could you do me a favor and weigh them?  I've been considering getting a pair, but I fear that they might be heavy like most waterproof boots.  I have a pair of Danner GTX boots and they feel like anchors.

[pompadork]

REALLY dislike the way Arc'teryx styles their clothing, specifically pants and shorts. Waiting on silver&gold to get the new AV stuff.

 

They got some stuff now, but no pants or shorts.

 

The price on that Nomin backpack (´･_ï½¥`)

how are the okwahn IIs? been weighing options for trail/hike use but i don't really need a full on hiking boot + would like to be able to use on more than just trails >_>

[TEKsevenZERO]

They are a great shoe, tough as err..old boots reinforced toe and i think they look great.

They're warm and sturdy and were a bargain too, I got them a good while ago didn't pay any more that about £50 for them, probably closer to £30 - recommended.

I love the speckled sole, sucker forthat detail!

I got the black colourway, the best in my eye

 

[Brainboy]

It's that I don't understand the context of it and why would style like this be "cooler than all of us combined"... sure there are some nice fits but most of it is just weird stuff, not something I'm interested in, but each to his own.

[Nebulae]

speaking from a fashion perspective, he just carries each outfit really well and mixes ordinary pieces into the super geeky tech stuff to bring it to a really cool balance.

Also, his silhouettes are so fucking clean/on point.

[Brainboy]

Well, that's the difference between me and you guys, I don't understand fashion at all.

 

Btw, Shadow Project AW14 sneak peak via Haven. Fishtail parka. Cute mittens thing.

+ Herno Laminar.

Not sure I like the dude's hat but I hella like those Pumas you pointed out.

[untrue]

Hender Scheme rain cap. Water and wind repellent treated hog suede with taped seams.

I thought this was a great minimal everyday cap, might scoop one up for myself.

sounds like it'd b hot as shit tho :I

ofc if the plan is to wear it as a spring-fall-winter hat then that's not really an issue

It'd be a nice everyday cap, if the price wasn't so steep :/
