[jf30]

just back from the sale, the line at 9:00 to get in was HUGE. sale items were pretty average as expected.

if you haven't been already i would say just skip it, all the good stuff would be long gone.

Picked up 2 shirts and a pair of shorts.

[homme.homme]

I agree with jf30... dont bother, stay inside and keep dry. there was shit all this year...

I had one small success... i found a Henrik Vibskov tee from a few seasons ago that I have been after for a while... the one with the penis nose on the front. other then that i just got a gorman top for my girl.

[derek_]

good to hear you found something homme.homme

For those that have been: what kind of APC pieces do/did they have?

[melvin7]

nothing derek.

i did not find one piece of APC lol.. all of the denims are mainly corpus and scattered pieces of acne jeans.

got myself a corpus hoodie though.. not too bad for $45 (from the winter collection) they had some knits/vest from their current summer 08 season but they were meh..

i wouldnt bother going to the sale lol..

i didnt know incu stocks jon pumper wtf thats like myer brand.

[jf30]

they had a couple APC button ups with the white collar and different color body

[jcotteri]

anyone go to the CON sunnies launch?

[feather]

I'm new in Sydney. Where do you guys get tshirts from?

[homme.homme]

I'm new in Sydney. Where do you guys get tshirts from?

supertalk.

but umm.. what kind of tee's do you like? only tee's i have bought locally in the past year have been chronicles of never from Incu.

[feather]

Don't have anything specific in mind actually, just wondering if there're any places to go in for a browse. Probably more Incu than General Pants, or Graniph.

[jcotteri]

unless you like local brands like ksubi, beat poet, CON, claud maus etc then i would suggest you look online..

unless you want to pay rape prices for dior, lanvin, mmm, etc

be my guest..

can you be more specific ie. brads of tees

[feather]

I wished I could! I'm just looking for new tshirts to get.

I was checking these out online:

[jcotteri]

perhaps a good place to start would be incu. I don't think i can help you out with medium to heavy print tees. I am more into inimal and non graphic tees.

But maybe the ksubi store as well. I am sure you could find what you are looking for if you checked out both on the weekend.

[derek_]

looks like you're into printed tee's ...for places "to go in and browse" check out Supply's own line of T's (as well as the other brands that are there) ... also there's dozens of shops on Crown St and Oxford St...go hunting!

[jcotteri]

^this is also a good place to check out if you want more street oriented clothing

[feather]

No worries thanks. I'm usually more of a minimal person myself, but feel like a bit of a change I suppose. Thanks.

incu sale was such a waste of time. had to line up in the rain for at least 20 minutes i'd say. only thing i ended up buying was a pair of shorts and they didn't fit when i got home.

i think i saw homme.homme in the line though, so the day was worthwhile.

[jcotteri]

*sighs.. ahh luv

Lol did u bring an umbrella? Hey I thought their denim was decent though I didnt go through any of it, saw some APC cures and a77s whilst browsing, 60bucks is decent.

I got some Raf sneakers(42 low in white), perfect fit for $50, was hoping they would have some loden dager shirts but yeah overall nothing exciting or I got there too late(10am).

[nlim3482]

are there any jackets or hoodies at the sale?

[gobbledock]

i had an umbrella thankfully. if i forgot my umbrella today there would have been no chance of me making it to the sale haha. i wasn't really after any denim so didn't bother looking at all, but i probably should have checked it out. could have grabbed a pair of cheap raws to beat at work. i also got there at around 10am, maybe a bit later, so all the good stuff must have been gone by then.

what's the deal with people who take like 10 items to the checkout, then discard like 8 of them at the last moment?

[dudeman500]

are there any jackets or hoodies at the sale?

only trovata jackets, modern amusement and some umbro kim jones

saw those raf's was tempted to get tehm but they looked a bit small

-there were some white raf highs in a 45 and saw someone walk out with a smaller size damnit

where was all teh apc stuff?

[nlim3482]

thanks, I'll probably give this sale a miss. I remember last year's sale being a big disappointment as well

[homme.homme]

hey gobble... you shoulda said hey... and shared your umbrella lol

[melvin7]

wtf i didnt see any apc nor a77 :<

jcotteri, do u know any stores in syd that stocks claude maus??

[gobbledock]

hey gobble... you shoulda said hey... and shared your umbrella lol

haha, i didn't realise that you didn't have an umbrella. although i don't think there's much i could have done, my umbrella is tiny and can barely keep my hulking frame dry.

[homme.homme]

ha i was only kidding anyway...

does anyone know anywhere in syd that stocks ballenciaga womens accesories? robbi ingham used to i think but i havent been in ages...

[jcotteri]

wtf i didnt see any apc nor a77 :<

jcotteri, do u know any stores in syd that stocks claude maus??

doesn't incu have some claud maus pieces...

pretty sure i have seen them in there at the start of the year..

there's plenty at the flagship store in Manchester Ln in melbourne..

http://www.claudemaus.com/

shoot them an email. They always have sales and some of the stuff there is pretty on par.

also i would love to pick up some cheap apc and a77 any size 29-30's?

edit: never seen it in sydney homme..nor anywhere else for that matter i think

[melvin7]

hmm i never seen any claude maus pieces in incu before.. interesting ;o ill ask them next time im in..

i go to bris once every 2-3 months but not melb .. havent been there for 2 years now.. would love to check out the store.. their tees fit me so well

thx anyways

[jcotteri]

okies might getting incu and fat in melbourne confused..

[oceanv1ew]

Okay, I'm just glad that I'm not missing anything from the Incu sale.

Don't have anything specific in mind actually, just wondering if there're any places to go in for a browse. Probably more Incu than General Pants, or Graniph.

Apparently there's a Graniph store near Incu. Haven't checked it out myself ...
