Will Smith wearing Qasas? 

 

[exhaust fumes]

Yeah, Qasa B-Ball. I don't know why you'd wear them to Top Gear, they suck to drive in.

[akuma no uta]

Mercurials sold out in less than a second. Unbridled rage spewing from my hands.

[Daniel Ocean]

^ yeah... the line ups were pretty bad too. now people are reselling for 500+ on ebay

 

anyone know where I can find tech sys pockets like the 3a-mts4 for cheaper? and other similar attachments.

[DemiGxd]

Can somebody tell me which Bagjack Model this is ? Thanks in advance

[frankie_four]

it's their travel bag with some molle webbing.

 

edit: looks like they used their reflective fabric for a collaboration: http://softs.to/2013/03/bagjack-x-softs-two-directions/

I heard that they make custom bags is this true ? If yes do you have any experience with it ? Edited February 16, 2015 by DemiGxd

[frankie_four]

for myself - i have no experience with their custom service. just hit them with your requests and they will do it ;-) i was once in their shop in berlin and had a very nice conversation with the staff / owner. they are really kind people and are interested in making new stuff. i ordered an acr x-pac attachment and they sewed and shipped it within three days, even if it the production was cancelled.

Anyone have experience with maharishi pants? Tore my ACL and need some comfortable/flexible pants as I'll probably be wearing a splint for a few weeks.

For real biking or casual biking?

I have a pair of the 3xdry pants from last year and the sizing is somewhat suboptimal for me. Somewhat tight around the calves/thighs and too wide around the waist. But that's a pair without any stretch.

don't go for looks 

 

just get some random shoes, what feels comfortable

 

i'd go for SPD if I were you too, walking in road shoes is pretty terrible

[Loos Threads]

Giro have a number of solid colour road cycling shoes that aren't over designed. Rapha used them for their Grand Tour model if that's any indication. I'm personally not so hot on the casual shoe with SPD look or feel, I think you'd be better served either going all out with a sleek road shoe, or just wearing a normal shoe with clips and straps.

 Original snopants should be perfect for this.

[omnidata]

So he has an excuse when he gets beaten by a girl, or an Ewok.

How about these? http://missionworkshop.com/products/bike_shoes/made-by-Quoc-Pham/

[kraak]

I have a pair of these: http://www.chromeindustries.com/us/en/footwear/storm-truk-black

The sole is quite good.

[EG562]

sidis are the industry standard for performance.

Vittoria 1976 for a classic silhouette with modern performance. see also quac pham and dromartie for more style over performance. 

[dystaind]

Rocked SIDIs for a good 4 years and loved'em. However on a whim I tried out the GIRO Code in all black and haven't looked back in the past 3 almost 4 years. Toured the California + Seattle coasts, ran around in alley cats, all day christmas shopping, and cyclocross races. Some of the most comfy and best performing shoes - in my opinion they're comfier, cheaper, and better than SIDIs. 

 

Although if I felt like spending the money, I'd go with a pair of the Giro Empire  VR90s (wish they went all black on the logos/accents).

 

Heard poor things about the Giro Republics and their soles which wear out super fast - otherwise I'd be tempted to go that route. Also heard the Terra Duros aren't great as far as performance/grip/wear goes on the soles. Dromarti is always appealing but unfortunately there aren't many sources for them. I'd go with the vittoria 1976 over the quoc phams - a friend has the Vittorias for probably 5 years and puts in way more mileage/abuse than I do.

Gyakusou SS15 is up on Nike's site: Link

 

Not the best of Gyakusou's collections but the short tights were pretty nice, especially if you picked up the long version last fall. Ended up picking the shorts and the tee with the reflective logo on the back.

 

Hurry up if you want to cop some of the black colorways though. Last fall they ran out of stock for the smaller sizes within a day....

 

The US site will probably be open for orders in a couple of hours or so.

 

(Edit: Fixed link, switched from Swedish website to Brittish)

Looks similar to the one included with the CP Company Metropolis jacket. Even the name sounds like a reference.

[Kale Kohai]

I'm not sure if there's an urban tech good finds, but I came across these UC pants I think some of you would be into. My apologies if not.

[Nebulae]

damn those look pretty sick

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

for those curious to see i think these're the pants in question

[Flipflop214]

Who ever snagged that shadow project stealth shirt on the bay.. If it doesn't work out, lmk.

NOT SURE IF I LIKE IT, BUT HIGHER PRICES + WATERPROOFED GEAR=URBAN TECHWEAR. QUITE SURE NOONE CARES IF I LIKE IT OR NOT.

[Igneousity]

Man, tech-y mid layers are weird as hell. Like, SISP does cool stuff with fabric but oooo a crew neck sweater, riveting.
