Crazy hype. Has their site ever crashed like this before? 2 hours and I still haven't been able to get any designer's page, or my small list of bookmarked items, to load.

Was gonna post this on Sneaker GAF, but saw that there was some interest on these here.
Day 1 in my pair of Margiela x Converse Jack Purcell in white/biking red. Was advised to go TTS on these but ended up going down a size (which I tend to do with Converse) as I'll either go sockless or wear thin no show socks when wearing them.

Woah, there is a sneakersGAF? Will check it out, 90% of my posts in here refer to a sneakers!
I like those by the way, the toe cap is pleasingly different for that type of shoe.

I'm surprised you're not shitting all over those shoes for being different.

Well it's just the toe cap that's different, they're fairly normal shoes apart does that.
Baby steps Bam, baby steps.

You do realize they are coated in paint that chips off as you wear them?
In planning to try on some strands this week.
Anyone got tips on the best places in nyc for that? Should I Just go to an ae store or are there shops that generally have better deals?
Also picked up some RRL rinsed slimfit jeans yesterday. Really nice and versatile, dat plus the fit works better for me then any of the APC and N&F fits. The denim is quite nice as well.

One of the many reasons I'm so done with the South
I like RRL as well. Some size inconsistencies but the denim is nice and slubby, and they have some nice rinses/washes.

I'll never give a damn about ssense again what a failure. It's too bad they get some of the best stuff from designers.

Good selection there.
Any reason you want Canadian websites? Lot of good stuff out there in U.S sites.
Oh the sites themselves don't have to be Canadian just Canadian friendly in terms of shipping.
Thanks.

Anyone like this? Never worn polo shirts before but it looks tempting.

Love it. Really does the flowers well. Manages to keep the whole minimalism aspect of Polo shirts with the detailed graphic collar. I have a lot of Polo's for summer, so I might be biased.
Also Bam Bam,
Hyperbeast has a 30% off sale. Would make that Philip Lin flower jacket around $700. I'm still wondering if I should hold out as I might find it cheaper somewhere mid-summer. $500 would be the golden price for me.
Fairly inoffensive (if sartorially high-risk) fabric seems like a trivial reason to be done with the South.

It's a gamble. Hell if it was 500 I'd buy one too.
There's rsvp gallery that has the slightly different version for 700 base price if they were ever have a sale that work out.

Does anyone in here like these things? Not a fan at all, I was just curious what others thought:
Super shiny trainers, hmm. They look like bastardised high heels or something, horrendous.
Not really sure why it's the price of like four plain black cotton polo shirts but yeah, it's nice.

Yeah, it's pretty smart.

It's not just plain black though.
While we're at it I'm also looking at this.
http://www.thecorner.com/us/men/long-sleeve-t-shirt_cod37542392cq.html Planning on ordering one or both when I wake up tomorrow.

Yeah I know! Whenever I open my trap about it, I just think to myself "shut up Ninj, no-one cares that you're tight." But I'm British, I like to have a moan innit.
I usually just let it slide when it's a nice coat of pair of shoes or something, because you don't know what's involved in the extra costing.
But that polo is literally some cotton, dyed black, and stitched into the shape of a tee. It seems like 75% of the cost is for the little label inside the collar. I just don't get it.

Haha, I usually dig your style though so it's all good. You can't put a price on swag chief.
But for reals, as much as I whinge about prices and comment negatively on certain garments, I'm only ever voicing my genuine opinion, I'm never intentionally being a pain in the arse.
Except with Bam Bam.
Hello, everyone. Long time no see. Is this a good topic to ask about shoes? I'm in need of shoes that I can wear for work, because what I have just aren't working. I can't afford something particularly expensive, so I'm looking for something under $150 and comfortable enough that I wouldn't be bothered wearing it for nine or ten hours at a time. I've had several pairs that were really uncomfortable and one that actually gave me a limp because it made my foot sore.
Suggestions on where to start looking?

I find shoes much cheaper than that price that gets compliments all the time. I like Kenneth Cole and usually find good sales at Macy's and Dillards. Zara and H&M can have some nice, cheap shoes. Not sure about the best quality shoes just under $150 though.
It's just 'business casual'; khakis, not-tennis shoes, button shirts or polos, etc.
maybe try something like the clark's bushacre. should fit well enough to be business casual and, from what i hear, are fairly comfortable. should be easy to find near you to try on as well and make sure

first wear of the diymmm x converse and the paint is cracking on the rubber. not really that surprising though, it was really difficult to get the paint to cover the rubber in the first place

Haha, that's it really to be fair.
OK I was lying, I do get it, everyone likes to wear nice labels. I guess exclusivity is just inevitably factored into the pricing of the higher end labels.
Can't have pauper normcore chumps rocking all the cool threads and diluting the appeal.
(Will you be in it?)
i am curious if you guys have better search skills than I, i really want this jacket:
http://www.stylebop.com/us/product_details.php?id=485302&gclid=CPPqktKazb4CFatj7AodxS0ASA
but they don't have my size, FarFetch has it but at $500 more and in my size:
http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/me...t-item-10455675.aspx?storeid=9183&ffref=lp_3_
now if it can't be found in my size (SMALL) at the price more in sync with stylebop, i guess i will just bite the bullet and buy it, but if any of you guys are more savvy than i, i will be in your debt.

Any suggestions on good places to get stiff point collar shirts from?
I don't know if point collars are the right ones to look for but basically looking for shirts to wear without a tie where the collars stand rigid.

Given the context, an extremely low light shot of someone in trainers and some fairly nondescript black trousers, this seems like a strange question.
barney's has a sale on Margiela sneakers. picked up this pair:

So, what are some good colors for summer dress clothing? I have a wedding next week to go to and wanted to grab a new shirt and/or maybe new slacks.
I have grey, khaki, and light cream colored pants now. I also have light blue, grey, black, dark blue shirts. Last summer I wore cream pants and the light blue shirt and it worked well. Just not sure what to do this summer. Do I go bold colors?

Anyone have an idea where I can find a cheaper alternative to this Union Garage/Vanson Leather piece? It's a wax cotton jacket, but it's priced at $700. I like the design though.
http://uniongaragenyc.com/shop/index.php/featured/union-garage-robinson-jacket
$700... wowza. I could never justify that.

Are there any other online shops besides Uniqlo where I can get nice clothes, that don't have every damn piece of clothing priced at like $50+? I can't justify spending that much money on a casual shirt.
