Yo Herpsky,

I just downloaded Serious Japanese last night.. Homez, the shit isn't all that great.. I mean its definitely an improvement over beef or chicken but they completely went lazy on this album.. Some of the shit is catchy but the others are waste..

Only tracks I enjoy are work that, 5th element, and いつも IT’S MORE.. Everything else is either weak as shit or shit I've already heard from like 2-3 years ago.. Ie; I still love H.E.R.

ポイントをつく意見　いえる世の中を
さらに一人よりじゆうの意見を
まわりくどい　不透明や妥協
俺はぶれないファック麻生


海の向こうをお前がみれば
不景気がなんだ
YES WE CANさ
オバマと団結し向かう明日
同じ夢見れる　そんなリーダー


あれ自民党、これ民主党
シャッタファッかアップ I got bored on both
ファックリックロスなみにフェイクなボス
口先野郎に定めるスコープ

Fucking love it.

[herpsky]

Besides UA and Space (think it closed down), where can I find Bedwin?

[herpsky]

[djrajio]

I've noticed this trend too.

BUT I'M GONNA ASK AGAIN: Where can I get my jeans patched up in Tokyo. I got a repair kit from Nudies and need my jean holes fixed up nicely.

98.5544 JPY

awwww yeah son! last time I checked, like a week or two ago, it was 90 yen to the dollar

i remember when it was like 120 yen to the dollar a year or so ago and thinking THAT was rape.

[salaryman]

Raj, found this site, can't vouch for the place, but you could give them a call.

it looks like they are located in Uehara and handle all kinds of damage.

There is also Bears in Shimokitazawa. I had some jeans slimmed down there, and was happy with the work they did. Ive also heard good things about the spot that Herp mentioned, but he beat me to it.

EDIT: If my memory serves me correctly, Bears just sends their shit to Denim Doctors anyway, so that's another rec. for them.

[djrajio]

Cool thanks guys. My gf lives in 下北沢...I'll try there first.

This thread has detailed directions if you need them; Bears is a little of the beaten path.

goodnight.

[djrajio]

denim doctor was pretty fucking hard to find.

i printed out a mapion map in advance but it was still kinda difficult.

it's in a "zakkyo" bldg near slapshot and go-getter.

the entrance is on meiji-dori, right near the hodokyo (i don't know what these are called in english - sky path?)

Grand Opening

I'm surprised that there are all these new jawn stores opening up e.g. raf simonz

[djrajio]

A giant Giorgio Armani store is opening up where Issey Miyake / Yohji Yamamoto stores used to be in Roppongi Hills. But honestly, do we REALLY NEED ANOTHER GOD DAMN Giorgio Armani store??? Wasn't the Ginza store enough?

[herpsky]

lulz.

that brings another interesting point.

why the hell are there so many hysteric glamour stores...?

does anyone buy that shit?

[herpsky]

i guess the same question applies to my boy NIGO's storez.

ive been kinda wanting revolver and phenomenon.

i dont know why

[djrajio]

I like Hysteric Glamour.

I mean they've been around forever, so its kinda hard to say they are a "trendy" brand.

Also, their distressed denim actually is pretty damn nice.

I just wish they made XS sizes.

The new phenomenon collection is fucking weird.

I can't understand who would want to wear it.

Its not street at all anymore.

Who would wear this???

[herpsky]

reminds me of that stupid NN heart shaped barbed wire camo pattern

lulz

[salaryman]

yo, fuck those sunglasses though.

[herpsky]

yeah those shades b pretty gaye

[jcotteri]

[djrajio]

Yo herpsky,

What's the exact address of Denim Doctor?

Between Go-getter and Slapshot there are a lot of stores.

All I could find near there is DenimWorks...

[horriblyjollyjinx]

can also get repairs at kapital, marwins and berberjin

[djrajio]

I need addresses people!

[herpsky]
