i like the karhus

post-workwear, post-normcore japanese heritage stuff (manual alphabet, minotaur, kapital &c)

not 100% sure because i'm not super familiar with those brands ... my sense is that it's a bit like rugged casual but also somewhat more "old-timey" than rugged casual? and maybe a little, uh, softer than the full-on heritage look? do i have that right?

my own wardrobe runs toward the preppy side of the workwear look (engineered garments, arpenteur, orslow, real mccoy's, battenwear, gitman, polo, levis, various heritage brands like dehen and brooks brothers) with a smidgen of streetwear mixed in (stussy, supreme, carhartt, nsw)

so i think the answer is yes, i do like that stuff, but personally i err on the more understated side of that look

Didn't know about those but looking at http://manual-alphabet.com/lookbook_2018-aw/ or https://www.bluebuttonshop.com/shop/BRAND/M/Manual-Alphabet/0 it kind of fits between Engineered Garments (which tlg mentioned) and Folk? Folk definitely a brand I like (EG too expensive/hard to find for me) so yeah I'd wear that. I'm also trying to branch out into more interesting silhouettes but need to be a bit braver.

If you like some shoes are you can afford them you should maybe get them and then wear them

the late great, Monday, 10 September 2018 18:29 (six years ago) link

I really want some retro green Nike waffle trainers. It seems like I will be looking for awhile.

Yerac, Monday, 10 September 2018 23:34 (six years ago) link

why?

the late great, Monday, 10 September 2018 23:35 (six years ago) link

I need them in a size 6.5 mens or 8 women about.

Yerac, Monday, 10 September 2018 23:54 (six years ago) link

Meaning, I haven't seen very many online and definitely not in that size.

Yerac, Monday, 10 September 2018 23:55 (six years ago) link

ah, yeah that’ll do it

you mean the action green ones, right?

Love waffles

calstars, Tuesday, 11 September 2018 02:21 (six years ago) link

I would totally take those, but I love the older green and gold and blue and gold ones.

Yerac, Tuesday, 11 September 2018 02:27 (six years ago) link

I was looking at making a custom Nike cortez but all the color combinations are not my thing (or else I just they just look like crap online.)

Yerac, Tuesday, 11 September 2018 02:29 (six years ago) link

itd be cool to wear supremes on some ~i like these shoes~ just as the the brand is at its most over exposed, high level styling

sprout god (lag∞n), Tuesday, 11 September 2018 15:55 (six years ago) link

i wore the shit out of a pair of supreme half cabs: https://static.highsnobiety.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/supreme-vans-old-skool-half-cab-fall-winter-2010-7.jpg

sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 01:04 (six years ago) link

Machine Gunk Jelly (Spottie), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 03:51 (six years ago) link

finally got a line on a pair i've been hunting for eleven years ... and yet, as much as i like the silhouette, still skeptical of nike's "baroque brown" leather ... sorry, it just reminds me of 💩

the late great, Wednesday, 12 September 2018 04:10 (six years ago) link

those are fucking hideous

Paleo Weltschmerz (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 04:34 (six years ago) link

so I guess yeah, I agree with you that particular treatment of materials looks like shit

Paleo Weltschmerz (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 04:35 (six years ago) link

front upper is nike sb, back upper is monarchs... with a running sole

Machine Gunk Jelly (Spottie), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 04:38 (six years ago) link

https://i1.wp.com/solegrind.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/acgdog8.jpg

kinda like a lower end version of the air revaderchi

ILX’s bad boy (D-40), Saturday, 15 September 2018 23:49 (six years ago) link

dig it

the late great, Sunday, 16 September 2018 01:25 (six years ago) link

dog mountains are great, the new acg footwear has been fantastic and way better than the cheesy urban ninja stuff.

the off white halloween blazers look so nice. too bad they have the dumb off white text on the other side and are going to be impossible to buy anyway.

It’s funny how I am proud to strut about with my rubber toe caps and will salute colleagues in their vans and pumas but show me a big swoosh and I immediately have to pay a visit to the water closet

Paleo Weltschmerz (El Tomboto), Sunday, 16 September 2018 02:41 (six years ago) link

Like that shoe looks great if only the big orange part could be, like, a hexagon or an oval or something. Not a big capital N though, that’s just as terrible

Paleo Weltschmerz (El Tomboto), Sunday, 16 September 2018 02:43 (six years ago) link

i like those trainerendors

the late great, Sunday, 16 September 2018 02:57 (six years ago) link
