INCU has good reductions man, if theres been something there u've been eyeing but didn't want to pay retail... i'm sure u can find it at like 20-40% off depending on how long its been there, the season its from etc.

I just bought a casual button down by the brand weathered, for like 80bux but if i had more money i might've bought like a jumper or something too.

[justinonfire]

Yeah, it's nothing crazy.. but still worth a look

[feather]

Yeah I picked up a Weathered shirt for 80, and a Travota shirt for 130 (I think). Saw at least two leather jackets sold, seemed like decent discount all round. Oh and a Paul Smith Rabbit sneaker for 200 which is really good (which I might go back for).

[profiterole]

More than 50 for sure. I don't find them slim though, their small is too big on me.

think they retail for a bit over 100 so i'd say the price is fair.

Thanks alot guys. Think I will pass on the tshirts.

Hey guys I'm sure this has been asked before, but where can I get some v-necks? Not a fan of AA: I think they're overpriced and I don't like their collars.

[DJI]

^just proxy some uniqlo vnecks, better quality and fit then anything you can find locally and at a fraction of the price.

Get at me if you're interested!

[gobbledock]

I would so buy those if they were a size 44 and I hadn't just bought a pair of leather training boots from Revolve.

Shipped on the 23rd and arrived today, not a bad effort.

[superhero]

damn nlim... if only they were 44!

I tried looking on Uniqlo before but the only v-necks seem to be undergarments.

[DJI]

these ones aren't undershirts, I have a few of them and they fit well. quite a mild vneck though, uniqlo had one with a deeper neckline but they aren't available right now.

[feather]

Thanks man. You're right about the mild v-neck.

[ediuno]

Heya lads I'm going up to Sydney tomorrow from Canberra and wondering if there any mad sales on other than INCU in the city. I'll prob be hanging out in the city and paddington.

Thanks

So did anyone catch Underworld last night?

[superhero]

I really really like this leather jacket, which i've seen at incu... but its probably around 1500 but i can't remember.

I heard stuff like its overpriced because of the name from the collab with justice.

Does anyone else know else where to find a jacket like this one... coz i personally really like this particular one - although to a students budget this is a huuuge purchase.

[gobbledock]

Have you checked incu since Christmas? I think that jacket may have been reduced to a bit over $1000 (down from about $1600).

[DJI]

it was reduced by 30%, someone was interested in getting it proxied but unfortunately it was sold out in their size.

[Ivans On High]

I have a proposition:

Ssense.com has 40% off until Jan 6th, and I am looking to buy a pair of shoes. Shipping is a flat $50USD to Australia, so if anybody is interested in buying anything from the site, we can split postage costs to save some much needed money.

PM me if you are interested!

[seven.homme]

I prefer the Gaspard's version of the jacket. if it reduced by 30%, might grab it if they still have my size .. i've tried it before,fits nice. but then again, some of my mates will think im stupid for spending that much for a jacket.

.. btw, happy new year everyone

[seven.homme]

[seven.homme]

Sorry to ask in this thread but I am sure you guys would know...

What are Surface to Air tees like? Slim fit? 50 bucks a pop a decent price?

i like it. im wearing small for S2A. definitely will buy some S2A tees again in the future ..

[feather]

Have you guys done any framing? Any ideas where I should bring some prints to be framed?

[st_]

i got a pretty sweet pad in surry hills and am moving in next week. i need a cheap sofa bed. looking for it is not going to be fun.

i got a pretty sweet pad in surry hills and am moving in next week. i need a cheap sofa bed. looking for it is not going to be fun.

how much did you pay for it?

im starting to look...

[st_]

i am renting; $400 a week (split between 2). it's fucking tiny but nice. good luck, the market is supposed to get brutal soon.

[timmytee]

I'll also be looking for a place in the coming months, hopefully wont have too much trouble... seem to be quite a lot of share places if all else fails.

anybody going to the metronomy show tonight for the sydney festival? should be good fun

[Ivans On High]

I've been looking at places in Neutral Bay and the market is definately getting brutal.

When I was looking in mid december there was hardly any prospective tenants, but I went to 3 viewings yesterday and there was at least 10 at each - over 30 at one place.

All I want is a nice 1 bedroom place in Neutral bay with a laundry, dishwasher, fridge and car space. Is that too much to ask?

[st_]

yeah the inspection at the place we actually got was intense, like 30+ people in the 10 minutes we were there. very stoked to get it, wasn't expecting to.

what rents are you looking at in neutral bay?

[brissyboy]

I was looking to move out soon to but at those rates I'll have to wait for a payrise. I've been paying 100 a wk for this bare room at eastwood.

Surry hills would be nice, good find.

[styleofmind]

Hey guys,

Long time no post. I spent yesterday walking around Surry Hills, Paddington, etc. just looking around and... it's pretty interesting.

Zambesi's still around, selling Number (N)ine tees for 100AUD. Those in the know, know that this is a ridiculous steal. Sizes 1-3 mainly, and small fits, so it'd be good for most of you. I'm pretty sure that with the general aesthetic of this forum, you guys would love it.

But just another heads up.

A friend of mine recently started his own label. I suppose this would interest the streetwear heads on this forum more than most, but it's worth it to check it out anyway. I quite like the direction in which he's taking it and having seen the next season's stuff, I think we can expect great things.

For those who are interested. There's an online store, but the best

method of purchase would probably to go into the single Sydney stockist.

HalfSleeve. It's a pretty cool store. Check the website for address and details. It's just up the road from World Square. Look out for the distinctive logo to identify the shop. Really cool place, and the owner's an awesome bloke. Totally down to earth. Stocks items from the New York Hat Company. Amazing stuff.

Do take the time to read around and have a look. And if any of you are interested, I could explain a little about his product philosophy. It's pretty fascinating. T-shirts aren't just made because they... "look good", like so many of the tees that we see nowadays.

Take the "7 Sins" tee for example. First thing you'll notice about is, is that it's mirror-imaged. Why?

Because, it's only when we look at ourselves, our true selves, do we see the sins of which we are guilty of.

Have a peek.
