what brands make a good Clubmaster style frame, but are somewhat cheaper?

here u go

$90 isn't that much, and you are paying for a good lens...

painted on cheap ones you buy at the flea for $2 are bad for your eyes, but you are starvin student so whatev

if you wanted to take it a step up, shuron escapades for ~$140

does anyone have the object dyed drkshdw jeans from Strutter? (the ones w/ the dusty color tones and poplin material)

How the fuck do I get them to stop bleeding? This includes on to my shoes/couch/wall/everything...

Posted

thx for the helpful comment lab

and any object dyed piece will bleed slightly, save for leather since that absorbs the dye more fully

and how does that lower the integrity of drkshdw as a line? i'd say at this point i'm qualified to make a judgment call...and drkshdw is fine.

Posted

exactly. drkshdw is simply another rick aesthetic, separated from the main line. quality is quite up to par, only real difference is a dearth of tailoring on the tops i'd say (which to some extent is the point i suppose)

RAF was originally a different raf aesthetic but was always acknowledged as much cheaper in general

i have been consistently dissapointed with the raf by raf pieces i've owned...only kept that "what we do is secret" knit because it's comfy...sold the rest and i even think i gave away some shitty coat

getting windy as shit in baltimore. but not cold enough for any of my coats. i need a windbreaker.

Posted

drkshdw comes from the same factory as the mainline.

i also dont have a summer wardrobe, i just wear less layers than i do in the winter. ;o

tore from keeping a small locker key in the pocket, the other two i don't even know what happened. after a few wears they looked defeated.

Posted

imo my clothes look their worst the first few times i wear them...wear and tear is good

i actually enjoyed that article, they acknowledged their position as out-of-industry observers and reported from that standpoint...it helped but everything in persepctive regarding the movement of said industry in the past few years

Anyone know why Nina Ricci menswear (particularly shirting) seems to be popping up all over? Stopped by American Rag and saw a bunch of pretty decent (two-ply cotton, ~$170) shirts in a variety of colors/patterns. Would've copped but smallest they had was a 39. Also, I gave them a tonguelashing for tagging a 39 as an "X-SMALL".

all i knows is raf gotta stop with those michelin creepers. frankenstein shoes gotta go

Got the Barneys' mailer yesterday.

The Raf suits are tailored by Sant'andrea, or St. Andrews - which is the same company that makes RL Purple Label suits - so, they should be beautifully made, with lots of handwork. The price was ~$6500, which is a good $2500 over what Ralph Lauren charges for a 90 wool/10 cashmere flannel type suit, so Raf's got quite a premium in there.
