yes or no? / this or that?

The construction of that Porter briefcase looks unreal, and worth it in terms of quality and durability... and, of course, the 3-way thing is pretty novel.

But aesthetically, I just don't get the appeal.

I like mine because it's simple and minimalistic, with just the right amount of flair in the rescue orange lining.

I don't think Porter revolves around high-fashion or anything groundbreaking in an aesthetic sense. It's just a nice technical bag that will stand up to a lot of abuse. After having to baby my Margiela for a year, the ability to take it through rain and snow and stuff it under airplane seats will be a nice change of pace.

Apparently they also have just the basic Tanker sans the 3-way option, if that's not your thing.

@ knugget, for backpacks, can't really go wrong with Gregory Jpn products. My day and a half codura is still going strong after 3 years of daily abuse:

Mine's the ultraviolet (frute swagz purple) color:

[Knugget]

ooo that's what milspec recommended in the backpack thread. any complaints about it and does it have laptop compartment? ultraviolet looks good too.

[jwsach]

i can vouch for gregory jp stuff, i have a slightly smaller one and the quality is fantastic. I don't really have any complaints except its more of a vintage backpack and not a technical one... meaning it has basic straps (opposed to mesh/moisture wicking/ suspension, etc.) and is kinda unstructured. Also, one thing that kinda erks me is that there is no external water bottle holder, something I didn't think about but that I miss from my older backpacks.

[Ryan M.]

Too much?

[homme.homme]

I recently purchased this Porter 3-way Tanker Briefcase ....

.... a high-quality bag that'll last a lifetime and a half, you might want to consider it.

i like porter but tbh every other bag listed here is going to be more durable.

[syed]

Too much?

Nah, it looks dope in person. I'm thinking I may buy the women's version because my wrists are tiny.

[eversuns]

What the fuck, I come here to have a quick look at whats going on and five seconds later I leave having purchased a Railroad spike.

in answer to your question Ryan, COP!

[yachtrock89]

Yesh on the Khakis?

[sunkenshoes]

^ uhm, no.

[Ryan M.]

Ha I made a good choice then. And those khakis look like the model shit his pants.

[raspberries]

[Pavlov's Bell]

Thinking of getting a pair of Yuketens...

or should i just wait for the re-retro of Jordan 3 True Blues?

true blues were re-retro'd not too long ago, so you'd have to wait a very long time. the military 4s are nice too. get them for now if u can, or u can get the cement 3s

[jok52]

Looking to get a pair of gray sneakers:

pierre hardy or

cp achilles low

[syed]

I prefer the CPs, if only because they are cleaner and more versatile.

[lintmunro]

plus the pierre hardy ones are fugly

[dranoelsy]

da cp'z bruh

[freecat]

get the cp, ph are ugly as said. also are you sure you want grey shoes ? they make outfits look quite dull usually.

[SDES]

^jok52: If you're a 42 in CPs and want grey Achilles Lows, I'm thinking of selling mine... Not worn much.

Wood Wood Jackets. One or none?

Also, do they look too thick for an Australian (Brisbane) winter? I'd just wear a t-shirt underneath.

It says they're a 'thinpadded shirtjacket perfect for the September/October evenings'.

[HOLY]

NONE.

[Dex_star]

pierre hardys look like etnies

[aoi]

I like plenty of Wood Wood, but those are just bad.

[SDES]

Okay, saves me 75EUR.

I just want a casual jacket that isn't baseball/bomber style. I'm finding it somewhat difficult to break off from them.

[jwsach]

For quick trips to trader joes or what not: y/n?

[aoi]

Quick trips meaning you're running or?

I am a firm believer in running shoes for running only. Or they better be some muted down, aesthetically pleasing running shoes - which those are not.

[Liam123]

What do u guys think? I kinda like it, but not sure..

[borkborkbork]

@liam just my two cents but,

[sensible shoes]

set on a pair of mcnairys. im thinking blue but cant split these two...?

or
