Can anybody verify if the following item is legit?

How do you authenticated CDG items? I've noticed that a number of PLAY items have a red stamp on the care label, perhaps collabos are different?

Thanks!

is there any way to get a free WWD account? I think it's ridiculous to pay $120 a year.

Does someone know where to get Vibram soles? I thought I read a post on sufu once from a guy who got some. I need to replace my soles but my cobbler asks crazy prices to do this.

Hi there, I was just wondering whether you guys could give me some help here.

I'm looking for all the NY fashion week designers that are more progressive and a little bit more subversive on the schedule and off the schedule. I'm based in London and haven't got too much of a grip on what's going on in New York. I got given a list, but Samantha Pleet, Emerson and Sarah Taylor aren't what I'm looking for aka they're boring as shit.

Looking for the NY equivalents of Cassette Playa, Nasir Mazhar, basically everyone in MAN, Louise Gray etc

Thanks.

what happened to carolyn massey? did the label close?

[robgotsastaplerr]

is anyone going to try to sneak into/have access to any runway shows for paris fashion week starting in two days? i would really really really love the chance to see a few shows and the lineup looks amazing:

maybe if people have past experience on how to sneak into runway shows they could share? or would it be better to contact the PR guys and try to smoothtalk your way into an invitation?

if people are going to be present, it would be great to run into some of you guys and see some of the sufu culture in person.

[jdemotion]

Does anyone have pictures of the old Rick Owens showroom pics from their MobileMe? Just the mens... used to have them saved but old hard drive died.

Massey posted this on her twitter a little while ago http://twitter.com/#!/CarolynMassey/media/slideshow?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftwitpic.com%2F2m4w2y

[Denton]

the account is protected, can you post it directly

[Desi]

Only posted these three on her twitter. Said they were fitting in Italy back on the 7th. So doubt she showed during LFW.

Does somebody have the lanvin ad with a skinny guy wearing like a topcoat and skinny pants with the old-style trainers (cp sole). I think he is wearing a hat, but the striking feature is his hair thats parted down the middle similar to a bowlcut covering most of his face. He is bending forward and its a very striking image. Ive been looking forever, anybody????

[sk00ma]

Does anyone know what these boots are or recommend something similar?

[frankie_four]

There is a pair of Marsu Jesus Boots (shape) and Mihara Racing Boots (finish) in the supermarket right now.

[evisu 2000]

you talkin about this

[aepic]

anyone an idea where to get this coat and what it might cost?

[jimjam]

I didn't know where to post this so I'll post it here. Anybody know what these shoes are called?

[Fycus]

how old is this ad?

I dunno maybe 2-3 years old. The guy was strikingly weird looking, and it was with the old style sneaks. It was a trench type coat if my memory serves me right.

[jimjam]

Just found out they are called viberg service boots.

anybody ever heard of a brand called 'back number'? just found a pretty nice jacket for cheap at a consignment store, garment tag is in korean. it kinda seems like a visvim ripoff. can't find any info about the brand by googling

[Fycus]

http://backnumber.com/

Made in Nippon? Maybe you had something before they went into just denim

[e0d9n0b5]

hmmm i dunno. the tag is in korean im 95% sure and its made in china. thanks for the link though, that might actually be them. the only link i found when i googled was a band called back number

[e0d9n0b5]

actually thats probably it, the logo is identical. thanks again

i really like the looks of their predistressed denim actually. if i had $$ i'd get a pair of the regular straight 8 years

Yo anyone got this Juun J x Topman sweatshirt?

[jdemotion]

Requesting photos of Dior Homme fall 2004 and spring 2005 from Firstview. I see them once in a great while, I used to have them saved on my old HD but lost them all. I know someone has them saved...
