Haha Yeh I will once I get things in order, but do you feel the cut throat and the strop are just a bit much sometimes? I currently use a standard double edge merkur razor and Urth shaving cream, scrub etc. Mensbiz also has some nice aluminium, alcohol and fragrance free deodorants which are quite pleasant.

Keen to hear what other people use.. or thoughts

p.s. Wire Season 5.

boom! got it the other day for $10 ivan haha

I am into shaving a fair bit. How can i help? Soap wise your best bet is online for really decent soaps. Sandal wood is my preference

i use a straight razor - Dovo. and a heap of differant aftershaves etc.

Be a man and use a straight razor - its therapeutic.

Other news.

[dzerzhinsky]

jcotteri about the razor thread it might not work because lifestyle lounge is hidden to non members, but since you should be able to access it search "classic shaving instruments", 47 pages or something.

I can't wait for the weather to really heat up. Not much going on in Australian summer fashion though.

[DJI]

you white dudes and your facial hair, I swear.

still don't know what to do about shorts. I only wear them when the weather is too unbearable for jeans so cbf spending much on them, what's everyone wearing this summer?

[DJI]

I have 2 pair of slim slacks I bought last year that were always a bit too loose in the waist, thinking about bringing them to a tailor to turn them into shorts but not sure what length I should go for. perhaps just past the knee or 2/3rds length? just above the knee would probably be too schoolboy-esque imo.

Just past the knee would be alright, because when you sit down it will reveal your kneecaps. Don't do the AC/DC thing.

you beigens and your minute amounts of facial hair:p

I quite like shorts that fall down to your knee but it depends on the rise. Are they low rise?

[lotek01]

I think shorts for guys are meant to stop just above the knee, max 1 or 2 inches. Anything below the knee is too sloppy, like board shorts. But that's just me.

Missed it! My life is over!

lol, beigens. I haven't shaved since I left for japan and my facial hair still looks like you could wipe it off with a damp cloth.

the pants are fairly low rise for slacks, under 23cm I think. still not sure what length to go for, maybe I'll just cut them to length myself and leave the hem raw.

[lotek01]

Just cut them a little longer, you can always roll/cuff em, that's what I did anyways.

Im currently looking to buy a pair of black 3/4's for summer. Something like Ann Dem or Julius or something. Difficult to find in my size :\

[wept]

the julius 3/4 are nice but ive only seem them pop up on Y! once and it was a size 1 (DJI concept). Blackbird stocks them up to a size size 3 in this color but they're still not cheap cheap.

[btbam]

Hrm not keen on those. thinking more pant style. just below the knee. but fitted?

Difficult eh

[wept]

ah ok. i get ya now. no julius comes to mind when you say that but i skip looking at shorts when i browse lookbooks/shows as i hardly ever wear them. Good luck in your search BT, ill keep an eye out for ya. Are you a size 32 or 34?

[Guest Montreal]

hey con-artist aka btbam, if you see this please respond to my private messages. it's one thing to rip off a member of this forum, it's another to go about your business like nothing happened.

[btbam]

Look who's back.

Dude i have 10PM's im going through. ill get to yours. grow up.

[notsicknorwell]

Too bad it's hard to find Julius SS09 stuff right now (unless dji can conjure up some magic) really like some of the shorts.

So you're basically admitting to being a con-artist.

You run a retail store yet you have no concept of customer service. You offer to ship items yet you have no idea how to package the goods to PROTECT them. You offer to issue a refund, yet you're nowhere to be found when it comes time to actually issue said refund.

[JayPee]

Thanks Homme.homme, tried to rep

[Ivans On High]

@Bt,

Did he even read that email?

[Guest Montreal]

@Bt,

Did he even read that email?

I read the email. I read the part where he said he would be paying out of pocket for the difference. I also read the PM he just sent me basically telling me to go fuck myself and that he wasn't going to pay me shit.

Nice way to run a retail store.

[nlim3482]

lolz

montreal - honest question, did you fill out a damage report?

[kino]

^ what he said

[Guest Montreal]

I never received the damage report. I don't doubt that it was mailed to me, as I have confirmation from the person handling the case through Aus Post that it was sent, but I never received it. I called Canada Post today asking them if I could resend it and I was told I needed to provide them with a case ID. I asked btbam if he could give me the case ID or request another damage report to be sent and he basically told me to go f*ck myself.

Regardless, he still has a financial obligation to pay me the difference between what was covered under insurance and what wasn't. He has not made good on this obligation, and has been skirting around this issue since day 1. He said he would pay, and that is why I posted a screenshot of the email he sent me.

I just want this issue resolved.

[DJI]

this isn't the place for this Montreal, fuck off.
