haha

you should only have that kind of lifestyle once you've earned it

I'm looking at picking up a head porter , this one for specifics:

Wondering if anyone has some more information on it? Size, material, general quality?

Thanks

Don't button your collar but always wear a tie and avoid deck shoes at all costs.

You should check styleforum.net they're more to your tastes... a mix of all ages and a love for bespoke suits... even the street-wear forum over there's a bit less "hypbeast" (nike wear?... ah minya has a point)

Look for Getsmart... he has some awesome wardrobe and shoes.

OH and wasn't this pic actually from someone in Styleforum??

Anyways bak to bags... anyone have any more duffle bag reccomendations?

[minya]

Hypebeasts on styleforum?... you mean the guys with 20 pairs of $900 Edward Green shoes aren't hypebeasts?

a rose is a rose, and all that..

i've used my visvim hypatex/elk backpack for about half a year and i love it. well worth the price.

my only gripe is that my thinkpad with extended battery doesn't fit nicely into the notebook compartment- i either have to just throw it in the compartment (and not put it in the sleeve- or take the battery off to put it in the built-in sleeve. i guess iw ouldn't have a problem if i used the normal battery. also it could be a bit more compartmentalized. other than that- probably best backpack i've used thus far, and i'm pretty picky about backpacks.

[swifferman]

it looks fake?

care to clarify? Anybody have like a catalogue of head porter bags?

Thanks

[high_contrast]

^^

Sure. It's from this auction:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Head-Porter-Black-backpack-bag-agnes-b-bape-bbc-stussy_W0QQitemZ330011057844QQihZ014QQcategoryZ15660QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

and all the items the seller has are fake. The price is the best indicator.

[poly800rock]

he also wouldnt have a headporter bag brand new with tags for 90$. that's about the price of one of their wallets+20$. headporter is very expensive. that one bag i posted a while back is sold for a little more than $400 new, coldrice said he found a used one for $350, so $90 for a smaller bag is nowhere near realistic..

here's one thats about a similar size

My friend has that one... Its really soft and pretty big. He says you have to really fill it up to make it look the erect shape.

Sorry, I missed this post. As long as you stay away from dressy/preppy models you're fine. I carry a similar style and wear white jack purcells, which go well with suits or other semi-formal outfits. Any shoe that makes it clear you're NOT trying to look like a rich trusty will do.

[swifferman]

Ahhh well done superfuture. In that case, supreme it is! I just can't drop $400 on a bag no matter how good it is.

Thanks

[swifferman]

What about this one guys?

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=014&item=330012637430&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Thanks

I'm gonna have to call a legit card on that last Ebay link. I'm not 100 percent sure, but I bought the same backpack from the Supreme NYC store and it didn't come with the tag attached that way, and the front label looks off.

[Guest bed]

Where can I buy porter and headporter backpacks online or in the Los Angeles area?

[werdtoyourmoms]

what about eastpack?

honestly, if you have style you can pull off a fucking stick with a bandanna and not spend $200+ for something with elk-fucking-leather. get a briefcase!

[werdtoyourmoms]

but seriously, bookbag?

you win, but still.

[werdtoyourmoms]

maybe.. but i think a beat up eastpack looks the best. nice and sloppy. a grey one.

[swifferman]

damn it ebay

i hate you

Alright then, I still need a second bag for books as I use my Lowe Alpine for athletics.

Any suggestions that are either ebayable and/or readily accessible for around 1 bill?

To clarify, I am looking for a backpack that can easily house a laptop.

Thanks guys

[Crillz]

My dream bag is still a Visvim Hypatex with the elk bottom. Damn you limted availability, damn you Hideout Store, and damn you GBP to $ conversion rates!

I recently bought a Prada messenger bag. Yes I'm a label whore.

The nylon is really easy to clean and durable, my mom has a bunch of bags and they've lasted her for years.

[kidicarus]

I'm surprised nobody's suggested this bag.

http://www.dpmhi.com/productdisplay.php?item=860

I carry the navy one and it's great: a sturdy nylon printed with a very subtle MHI Sikh-style camo. The contrasting lining is bright orange. It has a separate compartment for a laptop and a divider inside with tons of pockets. At first I thought there were maybe too many pockets, in fact, and that it was a little geeky for that reason, but I've managed to find uses for many of them (although there isn't one that's quite right for my slide rule). My only complaint is that some of the mesh netting inside a few of the pockets is wearing out a little, after only about two months. But for roughly a benjamin, it's still a good buy, I think. I was super-sick of messenger-style bags, esp. the ubiquitous Jack Spades carried by every wonk in town.

[masuerte]

nice dpmhi bag!! Is this in europe of america? dollars or pounds...

[kidicarus]

You can get them in the States. I live in Seattle, and GOODS has it for $120, I think. I got mine from Factory People in Austin (I used to live down there).
