yeah I was surprised too, must have blown our own spot haha (not that it would be a bad thing, CM deserves all the business in can get). cal said he'd check with the warehouse for me, hopefully they can get another one in before the end of the week.

[melvin7]

decided to go ahead and copped the last khaki s/s.

needed more basics for winter and $60 is a bargain!

i like the fit much better than CON basics (Y)

[Tyro1]

yeah true, they deserve the business...

The short sleeves look great, how much did you say they were? still think I will grab some viscose con for the mean time (if and when I can)

[DJI]

$210 each and they come in white, grey marle and black. sales are still quite a few months away and shit seems to be flying off the racks this season though .

[Tyro1]

Yeah dont think I will be able to rely on sales....

[DJI]

spot is definitely blown, I've received about half a dozen pm's (both local and international) asking about the tees despite my crappy pics haha.

[Tyro1]

proxy NOOOOO size larges hahahah

[DJI]

haha, no proxy request yet. they're nice but they certainly aren't that cheap .

[Tyro1]

Well I guess if you are paying in us dollars they look a bit cheaper. But yeah +200 dollar tees are more than I can afford, at least for a few pay cheques.

Speaking of which, I never found the silk ksubi tee I wanted on sale either.

[DJI]

yeah they're definitely well price compared to similar pieces by other designers, but not so cheap that people are going to jump at the opportunity. the quality is certainly up there though, can't go wrong with cotton/cashmere jersey sourced from japan

[melvin7]

CON's end of season sale is coming up next week

let me know if you guys want anything and i'll see if i can do some pick ups.

though im sorta short of cash atm.. the studio is 2 mins down from my place so i can always come back the next day if necessary.

[Tyro1]

Hey melvin, the only things I would be after are the viscose rotten apple tees and tanks (in grey white or black) in size large. If you see any tees I would definately grab them. I imagine dji would same be the however after xs.

[DJI]

thanks for the offer melvin . yeah I'd be after rotten apple viscose tees and tanks in black, grey and white too, would be great if you could pick any of them up for me in XS .

yeah I'm after the same size/stuff as Tyro.

dunno how open this offer was ha ha, but be cool if you could let me know what they had and then proxy for me

[melvin7]

i dont think i will be able to pick them up all on the first day (as it is cash only) but i'll do what i can.

i highly doubt they will have the rotton apple viscose tee on sale though as that shit is already hard to get.. last season they only had the navy long tee.

[Tyro1]

I'd also be interested to hear what jewelery they had melvin.

[melvin7]

i think what i'll do is - once i check the sale out, i'll list out whatever they have here and you guys can tell me what you want. We'll take it from there.

but if i see the viscose tees ill buy them first before anything else =)

[DJI]

yeah I'd be very suprised if there are any viscose tees and tanks but if you could snag any in XS (in any colour but navy ) that would be great Melvin. dunno if they'd have much/any jewellery, most of it carries on from season to season so there isn't really a need to discount it.

[Tyro1]

want some cheap white high tops, and would prefer to buy them locally... anyone have any ideas? thinking about the controversial AF1s or seeing if I can grab a pair of the reebok juun j styled releases. open to other similarly priced alternatives?

[DJI]

save your money for reek high tops T, a third of SZ owns a pair so it'd only be a matter of time before someone sells a pair in your size.

[Tyro1]

that is a good point...

[wept]

tyro, for some reason i like the juun j reeboks. The white patent ones remind me of star wars.

what DJI says it true though, alot of SZ owns the moon boots.

[Tyro1]

yeah if I could find the general release juun j "style" boks, I would grab them, but cant find anywhere shipping internationally, or any Australian stockists.

[DJI]

the juun j ones are cool, definitely like them more than the RO dunks. isn't bt going to stock juun, perhaps he could hook you up?

[Tyro1]

I don't think they make the actual juun j ones in my size. Reebok has done a limited release of non patent double strap exofits, basically the same, but still not easy to find.

[DJI]

ah k, guess you'll need to do a stake out for rick sneakers then. shouldn't be too hard to get, he's been doing them for 3 seasons or so now. what size you need T, a 45?

[DJI]

lol, I was just reminded by those oki-ni ads, do they make dbss dunks in your size T?

[melvin7]

what size are you T?

forwardforward.com still has the white neil barrets for cheap.. free shipping and im sure u can find some promo code for it..

[Tyro1]

12-13 not really a fan of the neil barrets though

[DJI]

shit, RO european prices have shot up too. I can't stomach paying more than ~$300 AUD for a lame basic. eh the front peen flap thing is getting played out around here anyway, I'll stick to my local and japanese labels for basics.
