the weight is to calculate the shipping costs. If there is no difference between 1 kg and 300 g, than you have nothing to worry

^^ Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot?

edit: I've got no idea how much Roys are so not sure if that's cheap or expensive relatively.

Yeah, I looked at those and the Thorogood 685. I just reeeally like the crepe soles on the Aldens.

Looking for a Germany proxy service. Recommendations?

[Ecotrons]

[Denton]

I really like the look of Alden Roys, but they're pretty much impossible to find, and expensive. Could somebody suggest similar styled boots I could look at?

the roy boots are just a special makeup of the regular pitt boots

like these

price isn't any better though

If only those came in leather....for now I have settled on some Indy 405s.

I'm trying to buy some casual shirts from Topman.com, but can't seem to find the measurements for a small anywhere. Can anyone help a brotha out? A link to an archived FS thread even works. looking for p2p, s2s and lenght from back.

[narutofan]

can anyone id these shorts? or know of something similar.

[jackg]

thanks narutofan! any idea's on places to find a pair? had a quick look on ebay/rakuten/yj to no avail.

[narutofan]

tnf junya line was very limited, best bet would be checking up on jp yahoo auctions every now and then

i've only seen those shorts fs at the market once and that was by seenmy himself

Where can I find a very slim, simple leather bracelet? I'm thinking like 3/16", maybe a bit wider. Doesn't even have to be leather, just needs to be clean looking.

[Sean9]

look in the leather crafting thread, I'm sure someone would make one however you want. otherwise the streetwear brand mister mr. and 3sixteen both make these.

[Wilbur]

What size Nike Roshe should I get?

I'm a size US10 in Vans and a 42 in CP.

Looking to purchase these in the next hour or so, so any help is greatly appreciated!

[Sean9]

sz 10

[jok52]

rick geobasket sizing:

fit true to size or smaller/larger?

I usually wear eu42/us9

Could I fit into a 41 and would a 43 be too big?

(asking because these are the sizes available atm)

[Xenophobe]

what kind of t shirt does rocky (in the middle) have on in this pic?

if you just want the look, there are always canvas hiking shorts on eBay. vintage gramicci makes a good pair. not the same, i know.

Does anybody have recommendations for basics (blank sweaters, oxfords, T-shirts, cardigans, trousers/chinos, etc.) for tall and skinny people? I'm about 6'1" and weigh 155ish, and last time I checked I'm about a 36/38 in the chest. I'm looking for stuff that's sort of cheap, something along the lines of...

Sweaters/Cardigans: $80 or under

Oxford Shirts: $75 or under

T-shirts: $30 or under

Trousers/Chinos/Jeans: $100 or under

I've scanned the cheat sheet threads, and did some googleing, but I either can't find something in my price range, or can't find anything at all, haha. Sorry for asking quite a lot. I'm new to higher end clothing/fashion (I know the prices I listed won't get me high end), and I basically need to start from scratch. Uniqlo looks good, and although I'd rather not deal with a proxy, I'm not against it as well.

Thanks everybody.

where do you live?

[MechaStreisand]

where do you live?

About 4 hours out of Portland, OR right now. I don't have any local options, haha. The only place that would come to mind in my area would be a Banana Republic, but from my limited research, I feel that I could do better for the price.

Edited May 4, 2012 by MechaStreisand

[An Oxymoron]

Nice, I actually live in Portland. Why not American Apparel, Gap, Old Navy, J Crew, Urban outfitters? All of them make decent basics at reasonable prices.

I was hoping for something that would be a little better quality, but my budget is limited. I'll probably just have to make due or save up, haha. Thanks for your help!

Everlane for t-shirts, proxy Uniqlo or lurk the marketplace for used goods and cop when you find something you like.

[redX]

does anybody have any experience with uniqlos linen line. especially the shirting. i'd like to get some light linen shirts for summer and what's been holding me off are the measurements on the site.

i'm about 6"2 and i'd have to get an S or XS if i'd want a slim fit

[choice]

Any luxury alternatives to the Visvim social sculpture 101? I've been looking for an older or used one forever in a size 3 and so far I'm coming up with nothing - the idea of spending 1k+ on a denim jacket seems a little excessive for my budget right now.

[Liam123]

If im US11 in Vans how should I size in Jack purcell's (CDGxPLAY)?

And also,

Gonna order Uniqlo x undercover t-shirts but unsure about what size to get. I'm 188cm tall and skinny. Any advice?

Thanks
