How are the suits? Wouldn't mind grabbing a slim fitting navy suit if they are worth the dosh.

[azif]

I really like zara's cheap work shirts, I've had a couple for 5 years and they are still going strong.

+1,

though mine have lasted 3-4 yrs so far...

[Ivans On High]

I had a quick look through (god bless men and their efficient shopping techniques; the downstairs was a mess). Nothing really took my fancy except the long high-collar coat, reminiscent of the CCP high-collar. Unfortunately most of the work shirts had spread collars, which I don't like.

looking for some new ties ... anybody know decent stores in syd that have a good range (less than $80 a tie) ? or even suggestions/locations for favourite thrift stores?

[Ivans On High]

Zara had some nice ties. Didn't check the price but they looked good.

[savage science fiction]

^^^ ivans are you opening a shop?

[ColdTurkey]

sigh anyone here can recommend me cheap accommodation around Usyd for like 2-3 weeks ? Transitioning from my old place to new place and there is a gap...fuck up

PS anyone can put up a place for me to stay? lol

[dansta]

Has anyone been to any good galleries/exhibitions recently? Looking to fill a lazy Monday afternoon.

[homme.homme]

Anyone been the the new hotdog place in Westfield Pitt st? SHIT IS AMAZING.

Also, finally went to madam char char on crown st. Good burgers and fries. Way better than Grill'd for example but I never liked that place.

Not much else happening is Sunny Sydney besides it being cold as fuck.

[aure]

yeah! been fuckin cold!

i wanna make a shearling leather something like from Songzio's recent collection.

anyone know if can i buy shearling leather from that leather place in waterloo? might go in there tomorrow

[homme.homme]

I haven't been there in a while but I haven't seen it there in the past. I am sure they could get it for you though... well, maybe. Don't know if they would bother or not for a small order. Nowhere else you could get it locally though I wouldn't think.

[aure]

has to be somewhere, with all the ugg places around haha

(uggs are shearling right?)

[homme.homme]

yeah uggs are shearling... I guess you could just use any sheep skin for a jacket then. probably not that hard to track down after all.

[Ivans On High]

They should have shearling there in Waterloo. That's where CoN got their shearling from the last collection.

[savage science fiction]

There was shearling at NSW leather a while back

Really nice lamb shearling (slightly longer and curly) I dont know if it is still there

[aure]

CoN had shearling last collection?

thanks dudes, gonna head over to NSW leather soon, and let you know how i go!

[aure]

[seven.homme]

[Ivans On High]

I'm looking for some basics with dick flaps. Something like the OV tanks. Anyone got a spot to pick these, or something similar, up cheap?

[conqueror]

http://hypebeast.com/2011/05/harrolds-sydney-store-opening/

may not be the best source, but it says Harrolds will be stocking Rick Owens exclusively in Australia for next season. this true?

[melvin7]

Hmmm. Harrolds are getting RO for AW11 but not sure if its exclusive in Aus...

In related news:

Harrolds x SFTM temporary store in Sydney opens tomorrow

Come in and have a chat!

[seven.homme]

^nice melv! saw the fashion show on ftv ..

oh I think I saw u at gery bigeni's show during fashion week. to hectic to say hi lol

[Ivans On High]

Yeah, I'll try to get there tonight to have a look, but if not then over the weekend.

[dansta]

It would be a blow to Assin if Harrold's did get Rick exclusively... I hope it's not true.

Not sure about that article, either. "Just opened"?

homme.homme, can you shed any light on this?

[homme.homme]

Assin still carries Rick. Mainline, Drkshdw and lillies.Other places in Aust stock it too, Zekka in Perth for instance. Misguided article.

[notsicknorwell]

those of you who wanted to handle the latest SFTM in person and speak to one-half of the duo should head on to Harrolds Westfield!

[savage science fiction]

do any of you guys put protective/non slip soles on your shoes>?

Just got a pair of pierre hardy boots and they are soo fkn slippery,

Anybody know anywhere good to get this done?

Thanks in advance!
