promise, I was at Exedus in Wrigleyville, and I saw atleast 5 or 6 Pelles this past weekend

Also, its hilarious that in a city with almost 3 million people, dudes can generalize what everyone does or doesnt wear

On saturday there wasnt a single white person in the bar.  Exedus is a reggae club, and it was dope, but yeah I saw quite a few Pelles in there, dope ones too
 
Al Wissam quality was **** compared to pelle. Pelle n timbs will never be played out to me. Black on black pelle no hood, wheat timbs... timeless b

Pelle's are still being bought in Chicago. Unless something drastic happens (preferably an additional fit), they have a few years left. I was just on West Side yesterday at Tops and Bottoms. Saw a wool and a leather sold. It's obvious they're not selling as much as they were. Sales associates were telling stories how Pelle's usually blow out the first sight of cold weather and now they sale 2-3 a day.
 
2-3 a day aint bo bull**** tho.specially for a style of leather that most would think is unappealing.

just checked their site for some joints.

the plain style joints like banks got on are the only ones i can really rock with. not big into logos these days...

probably a club w/ drop ceilings and "mogs" drinking outta 8oz. clear cups :lol

OK...so Chi as well. 2 cities.

i personally was never sold on all da rine stone era pelles...i can only imagine how hard is it to clean and maintain those.
 
A classic brown one and I'm good, none of that extra stuff dudes be wearing purple bedazzled Pelle Pelle
 
Never seen a soul in DC wear it. Dominance? Yea sure. Maybe in Washington Apple or whatever Ninja's Hood is but not down here. :smokin

I wanted to say this but i wasn't tryna start that whole thing in this thread.

But, real talk, you ain't seein nobody rocking a Pelle Pelle or Avirex in the DMV in 2013.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: There's alot of stuff that's big in alot of places that will get you clowned in the DMV. Including those Biggie Marmots, even though Marmots in general are poppin in the DMV.

Stussy is still 100x more relevant though. You're talking about a brand that sells essentially one style of product to a handful of cities for 1 season a year. No one buys a single other garment from Pelle Pelle so I can't really call that dominance.
