Its funny how Americans are debating who was first to rock a Japanese streetwear brand that bottles and modernizes classic American and counter-culture looks. The designer is the dictator. You either follow him or you follow another....or you don't follow at all.

You either follow him or you follow another....or you don't follow at all. I like Undercover because, to me, Jun is a bit of an introvert. You always see a bit of his weird interests in his presentations. But just like every designer that rehashes classic American clothing and counterculture, all he's really doing is modernizing the materials and the fit and playing with proportions....then repackaging it for the ravenous modern consumer....always at least 10 years after the original look has peaked. The Japanese are always late on this stuff, but they always perfect it. Jun is like the Japanese Raf Simons.

i think its very strange how this board talks about everything in terms of a limited vocabulary of menswear designers like raf and jun

Posted

not that strange. the majority of posters aren't interested in fashion enough to delve deeper and find out about more obscure designers, so they're going to be limited to the spectrum of what's popular around these parts.

what's the difference between using the internet as a medium of influence vs 'real life'?

imo alot.

jerking off to porn vs. getting ones dicked sucked? depends on how strong yr wrist is, what kind of lotion you invest in, and couple other variables depending on the individual. sure you can argue that some girls give terrible brain, but it's gotta be better than a the self wank, right?

Shithouse analogy dude. Internet and 'real life' influences are both means to an end. Jerking off is a substitute end.

beat me to it there, mass

that analogy doesn't really make sense. it's more like watching a peep show vs watching porn online.

maybe not, but isn't experiencing something irl or even getting influenced irl from rl experiences better?

I'd have to agree w/ this. Certainly seeing things in real life gives you better perspective. Especially in an age of photoshopping, styling, profressional lighting, what you see on the internetz is not necessarily what you get...

this may be true, but--to be honest, sufu waywt kinda sucks ass too. and at least there is some discussion of clothes there, this talk about undercover is like.. the only somewhat interesting discussion i've read on here for months.

Well the reality is SUFU has basically become a dumping ground for people trying to sell their jawnz. Click "View New Content" at any time of the day and basically the same market threads of crappy goods that never sell.

i dunno maybe, but you can't really deny that there are just as many people looking shitty in purchases as a result of real life experience vs dudes dressed by the internet.

that's true, but it kind of seems more dignified to gain experience or influence irl.
