In my dire search for cash - is anyone interested in purchasing this:

hot fiyah. unworn. size med. pm offer. just IC, not sure i can part with it..

[home]

that's fucking cool... Hong Kong would be a cool place to be for that length of time. It would be fucking hot there at the moment. Did the same thing this time lat year Vietnam - Hong Kong - Beijing - Shanghai - Tokyo - Osaka - Tokyo...

Yeah man. I'm hoping HK will be beginning to cool by the end of the month. I'm also aiming to drop through Vietnam/Cambodia on my way back south.

Might have to get some tips re. Japan, closer to my arrival..

[home]

we're looking at about 51cm p2p, 71cm for overall length.

fairly typical ksubi medium, i think..

Will almost definitely take you up on the offer tyro - cheers.

Hey guys, sorry I tried googling around, but any idea where I can get this jay-el or wilsons leather care stuff around the CBD or somewhere accessible? Cheers.

[jcotteri]

why dont you check out places like this: doesn't have to be the exact brand, just get some sort of leather protector . Basically it should contain beeswax, some oils and shit like that. I bet there would be several types that would be most suitable that are made in australia. Try horse style shops or maybe even furniture shops, basically anywhere that sells lots of leather. Buy a leather conditioner

[Guest nightrain]

jay el beeswax, the only place i know is at ascot saddlery, their address is 540 racecourse road, flemington. or if u cbf, theres a shop that sell red wing mink oil(i know this is bad choice but im just saying) its located in bourke street near myer, just opposite the road you will see an arcade and theres a leather shop inside it..

[feather]

Hmmm thanks jcott, nightrain, will look harder in the city. I walked round checking out Mister Minit and they didn't seem to have anything 'proper.' I'm not famliar with the leater care stuff, I do have mink oil which I've been using on my shoes and wallet, but read that mink oil isn't good for leather after all, wtf. Just googled JM Williams, will try that in Melb Central.

[jcotteri]

yep a saddlery is the best place to look. Somewhere that sells RM's is a god bet.

which reminds me, driving to the airport on my way out of Melbourne in Richmond passed a RedWing boots store. Just googled it:

amazing, i must check this out when i'm down next..

So that might also be a great place to check out feather..

hope that helps..

Need some help here. My favourite pair of jeans has a major rip in it, anyone care to recommend some places to repair it? Preferably in the cbd area. Thanks:D

[btbam]

the only place im aware of from when i lived in melbourne was just off chapel street..

They do a crap load of denim repair.

Sew Right? or somthing?

[Renny]

I tried looking for the store last week, but could not spot it. Apparently its along hoiser lane or sth, but no sign of a clothing store whatsoever.

[Pandemonium]

any good shit todo in the city during the afternoon?

soooooooooooooo fuckin' bored.

[feather]

Grab a drink and sit out in the sun.

Melb Int. Film Fest, Planet B-boy at 3pm ACMI looks good. Was planning to catch that but got sidetracked.

[feather]

I've been checking the program but haven't gotten my ass out of the house for any of them. There was something on Burroughs and something on Hunter S Thompson (I think) that I was interested in. There was a HK flick called Triangle but it had shit reviews online. They're screening the Evangelion remake at Kino. But I'm planning to catch In Search of a Midnight Kiss today.

[Pandemonium]

Wear sunglasses and check out chicks, play crazy arcade games on russle (you is asian so they will let you in, they dont like whiteys there so I cant challenge them to super geeettaaaar Heeerrrooooo, or that drum thing?)

nigger that place drains my money i don't wanna go there

[Renny]

speaking of... anyone seen any MIFF yet? I am shit, and was poor so have not. Really wish I had made more of an effort to check out the program before it started. (i say this every year)

need more current releases...seems to me that MIFF is a year late...their showing Ashes of Time Redux though..

[jlow]

just caught planet bboy today, twas good... catching the whackness on sat, only heard good reviews so far.

i is also have mad rips in my crotch area, where do i go for repair?

pandemonium.. i am going to the school tomorrow.. lol.

[Pandemonium]

crotch area is generally self-do.

if you hemmed, get a swab and just go crazy back and forth like the ksubi logo.

+++++++++++++++++++++

+++++++++++++++++++++

+++++++++++++++++++++

i am pretty sure tailoring places don't do that shit.

as for school. yeah well i don't know.

just dont' point me out or anything i'm not bboying i quit that shit maybe i'll pick it up when i have free time but probably not.

[jlow]

i have no idea who you are though...

[Pandemonium]

wrong time of year, i know, but does anyone know where i can pick up some skinny/short shorts on the cheap? ksubi shorts normally do the trick for me, but shit has not hit stores yet..

also, hats (fedoras, trilbys, etc.), other than the place downstairs at flinders st station, where else to kop? i want clean designs, none of that scenester shit fat/gpc is selling.

[jcotteri]

if you find a good place let me know home. I want a felt trilby

[home]

aforementioned place at flinders st is very good, and are well-stocked with felt hats currently (being winter and all) - but I'm after lighter / straw hats, which apparently wont be stocked until october-ish.

edit: off-topic - anyone else enjoying the new van she album? has surpassed my expectations..

[jcotteri]

yeh i would like to get another straw hat as well... festival hats

[anth]

anyone been to the mjolk shop? whats it like?

[jcotteri]

I had a go, but went on a Saturday. It was closed unfortunately. Next time i am down i will definately check it out.
