Anyone knows a good local dealer for Seiko automatic military watches? I'm quite enamored of the ones on the left right now:

[Paean]

Yo they be real or just imitations???

no idea man. but judging from their prices it'd be authentic.

[bobblehead]

u can try skywatches at people's park complex. bought a seiko black monster from there for quite a good price.. slightly over 200

anyone knws where else can i cop ivalease (rob) jeans? frend told me its been discontinued over at japan. isit true?

shucks man, dh @ ion, the sizes and the quantity they brought in. either the black raws they have does not appear in my size, or they have none of wad im looking for.

[Thisisaline]

hey guys, long story short, I've ended up with a pair of size 33 G-Star Raws that i don't wanna wear, and even though i know it's probably not exactly sufu standard, I'm wondering if anyone knows a good local forum or place where i can sell them for something.

i'm hoping to deal local cos i'm not all too familiar with sending stuff to and receiving payments from overseas..

of course if there's any chance anyone here would like to buy it, do let me know..

[Paean]

wuts ICB?!

[DJ_Flame]

Ice Cold Beer.

[panicnation]

inverse chee bye.

@dj_flame: i have an idea who the guy is, not sure if he's on this board.

[hurhur]

anyone knows where to buy good quality, slim-fit chinos? the weather here is making me convert to wearing chinos over my sammies.

[DJ_Flame]

Wait till december +j will be dropping...

Personally if I need slimfit chinos I'll just use a proxy to order Acne pop chinos (the slimmest cuts)

Or check out KnowItNothing...their chinos are nice as well.

[hurhur]

how about Dr Denim chinos? I heard that they were not bad.

[panicnation]

i don't own a pair but i've heard that doc denims are alright and they dont hurt yr wallet too much either.

i dunno...just go try a pair on or sth.

blackjack stocks acne but not sure if they've brought in the pop chinos.

alternatively try michael j krell on sufu, or muji.

or, cheap monday/a77 chinos if u can hunt them down on supermarket.

[nism]

very woonderland at ion now has some naked and famous denim! the skinny guy and weird guy, in raw and raw selvedge

[hurhur]

anyone knows where to get leather care products here? like sno-seal?

[shampoosuicide]

anyone knows where to get leather care products here? like sno-seal?

On that note, where can I get a suede brush/suede eraser?

[postman]

check out this singaporean selling his No. 4 uniform boots and labelling them as "vintage combat boots" wtf:

http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showthread.php?t=171781&highlight=e-mart

and at 60 USD to boot when they cost what, 60 e-mart credits?

fucking rip off.

[deusvalor]

well, its not like any singaporean's going to buy it and anyone elsewhere who wants it cant get it for free so technically hes not ripping off anyone. nobody's obliged to sell something for the price they paid anyway - ultimately, if it does sell it just means someone thinks its worth paying $60 for.

btw i don't think its a good idea to start snitching in this thread, its just going to start a fight here.

[postman]

its just the principle man; selling something that you can get for free (i assume he did), and selling it off for a substantial profit.

alright i won't say anything about this anymore. peace.

[DJ_Flame]

Someone can buy my SCDF pull-on boots for cheap guidi steez.

I'm asking only $10 + mcspicy meal + 1 pack of dunhills. Paypal ready.

[deusvalor]

some goth ninja wannabe without the $$$ might just bite on that

my combat boots are weathered as hell with an overall brownish fade due daily sunlight exposure. imma pass it off as some paul harnden distressed leather thing.

[nism]

the Lee shop in jurong point (!!!) has Lee Gold Label on sale.. i saw some for $80 - $90, not bad for selvedge

[gamo]

Hi guys, a quick question, does Front Row still stocks APC? Any other store beside that?

I'm on my mobile so its annoying to go through the pages.

Cheers!

[DJ_Flame]

some goth ninja wannabe without the $$$ might just bite on that

I saw a dude wearing them today with plaid shirt and baggy jeans tucked in...it was totally not goth ninja and yet chinamen steez at the same time.

Front Row still has tons of APC left, they shifted to Raffles Hotel recently (if im correct)

On that note, where can I get a suede brush/suede eraser?

Eh that leather cleaning store in Chinatown sells it....inside a mall, not Chinatown point but 4-5 blocks behind.

On that note, Apple Leather seems to be the way to go for leather conditioner locally, I saw an ad somewhere and i remember that bagholic writer on Style uses that for his balenciagas...don't know if it waterproofs boots like Sno-seal or Obernaufs tho.

Anyways that Chinatown store sells leather cleaner too...apparently they do clean LVs BVs Chanel tai-tai bags on the regular so they should know their stuff.

[digitaltantra]

anyone going to Yeah Yeah Yeahs show on 12 Jan?

[hurhur]

I have a pair of roughout service shoes from ww2 impressions that I want to sell because they are slightly too big. US size 8.5D. pm me for pictures and price if interested. sorry to post this here, but i really want to sell it locally to prevent any shipping hassle. Thanks

[deusvalor]

decided to check out uniqlo at 313 today instead of tomorrow, had to go in the morning cos of a lunch appointment and boy am i glad i turned up at 11 when it opened. +J stuff in sizes smaller than L disappeared in less than an hour. not sure when they're restocking either - i missed out on one of the checked shirts. bloody hell.

a lady dragged out 4 of the largest uniqlo plastic bags full of +J outerwear. they were giving a gift bag for every $50 spent. she got an entire box of gift bags and made a staff carry the box of gift bags down to the taxi stand for her. also, saw a dude trying to pick a piece (i assume he meant to take a +J piece) off another guy's basket. this opening's probably crazier than the opening of the first uniqlo store at tampines.
