Dressing Better Vol 2.0

I'm hoping the XS is good, I was surprised there were so many sizes left too, I mean these shirts were like $80-$110 retail and got them for $25-$35 each, it was hard to resist. Dapper-JCrew-Bro-Link-Up!

Was this online?

Yeah, man...I'm almost certain XS is money on you since you're like 20 lbs lighter than me at the same height.

Yah it was online, I must have gotten like 10 emails reminding me about it. I think the sale ended at Presidents Day.

Here's the first batch of shipment, still waiting for the second of 3-4 more shirts.

And those "indigo" are different shades of blue. :lol

anyone peep the suit supply SS14 campaign? best lookbook yet.

and to the dude asking about cheap spread collar shirts, currently waiting for my first shirts from Charles Tyrwhitt. I'll post some pics once I get them, fairly cheap at $40/each.
 
I was a sales associate then an assistant manager at Foot Locker during college. We're talking years at that company.

I believe I have a firm grasp about what I'm talking about through experience.

Nike is able to come out with all these ground breaking designs at the cost of actual function. Asics, Brooks & Mizuno have the ugliest designs because they primarily focus on function and what's inside of the shoe rather than the outer appearance. I've dealt with enough Ekins and other brand reps to know what each company's mission is.

Nike knows exactly who their audience is. It's not actual runners.

If you've had a good experience with Nike runners then more power to you. But I assure you, that's not the norm.

I agree here (Also a former Foot Locker Store Manager) but the way I would describe Nike's emphasis is cutting edge technology versus tried and true technology from companies like Asics and Brooks. I wouldn't go so far as to say all Nike's suck for running, but if you rely solely on Nike for all of your running, i might say you're doing it wrong.
 

MMM, the brand, label all their shoes and clothing, "replica". So basically people give the shoes their own name hence "german army trainers". RFX was simply asking is he talking about fake MMM or the actual brand,

I know they're called replicas, I was thrown off by his response :lol
 
Yeah, the stuff that Margiela replicates has the replica sticker on the item while their original make ups don't. So many folks just refer to GATs as Margielas so I was just asking.

I almost booked a trip to LA next month but my fiance and I decided on Seattle instead to visit old friends (insert Superbowl joke here). I may be heading out to either LA or NYC this summer tho.

For sure, man.

Let me know what's up. It's always dope to meet up with you cats.


I'm really thinking of copping these joints:

I always wanted back into jerseys, but I can't do the pro-cut length like in high school days anymore. It seems these are really tailored for a more trim fit.
 
I saw those M&N jerseys at the pop up shop in Nordstrom's. They're great quality.

Personally, I bought the Kobe Mitchell & Ness a few years back. Only wore it like twice
 
That Boston Celtics jersey is random and isn't that taboo if you're a Lakers fan?

Anyways, if you want tailored, try one of these

This is about as tailored as it gets when it comes to jerseys

i vaguely remember ninjahood saying he had all his old jerseys tailored more to size after the big jersey era went away

I don't really have a team :lol

I loved the Lakeshow in the mid to late 90s...Nick the Quick, Eddie Jones, Vlade, young Kobe... :hat


I also loved the Clippers when they had Q, Darius, and Lamar.



Guys won't believe me when I said those NBA shirts will take off. Yes, it's weird for us, but I'm almost certain the folks in other parts of world would prefer them just like the soccer jerseys. Plus, they're a lot easier to wear on casual Friday too since you can't wear tank tops to work.

I'm sure in the next 5 years or so, ads will be put onto jerseys to generate more revenue.

Me too, man. But tailoring can only do so much when the jersey comes below your knees though. Plus that's mad bread :lol

I remember cats used to battle and post outfits in the early to mid 2000s...jerseys, warm ups, and matching kicks. Outfits were expensive as heck :hat

C'mon Wiz. The guy on the left was able to figure out how to wear his jersey on casual Friday

People wearing those ugly pinwheel fitteds to match their jerseys looked so lame. The extra long jean shorts and custom af1s finished the look.

:lol when I first saw that Fab vid with Nate Dogg in 2002 or so....made me want pinwheel fitteds.


Just went to Barneys to look around. Lots of flight and ma1 jackets. Will wait to cop on sale.
 
It's funny you mention it, because I recently bought an authentic Paul Pierce celtics jersey (he's always been my favorite player, but I could never justify the cost...until now). The problem is it's way too long. I was thinking about getting it tailored, but I was wondering if that was something they would/could do. Any thoughts?

If I recall correctly Ninjahood and some others had said they've gotten theirs tailored.
