The Clothes Thread vol. 2 | SRK's WDYWT Thread

^ Naw, I use to wear armani exchange though.

Then upgraded alittle.

-SH

ughh so do people still wear plain black or white tees? im kind of tired buying 5 dollar gift shop shirts.

After working at Saks 5th Avenue for a month I am now a fiend for Burberry. Where can I go to get good deals on their trench coats and hoodies?

www.yoox.com

^^ Try yoox

Edit: Beat me to it. :-p

On another note, I’d rather buy 4x pairs of good $50 jeans than one pair for $200+, otherwise, it’s a tad bit liek Marge with her one-hit wonder Chanel suit…

yeah you’re right

maybe you are or maybe its me as much as i spend on sneakers:rofl: =p

therein lies the problem

Don’t even get me started on how many pairs of shoes I have.
My ex bitched at me and was jealous cause I had more pairs than her. :wgrin:

-SH

^yeap know the feeling
but aside from that, desmond u in ny saks, neiman, and the burb flagstore all have end of season sales.
yoox is tricky to get good size selection

><><>
the thing about the dress from the simpsons idea and jeans is that jeanes arnt the whole look. that dress was. anything can be played if its not subtle, jeans usually are.

dont get me started =p do u really think u have more sneakers than me?:looney:

^ Iunno. I doubt it…but I do have a decent collection. :lovin:

-SH

^ im not saying you dont have a decent collection…but don’t doubt me

so 300 on bapes/dunks/j’s is okay, but not on jeans? lokz.

not gonna lie, $300 for any 1 article of clothing that isn’t going to be used in a wedding or job interview is pretty redic. Just chiming in on that… long time reader of this thread but never really post since my fashion sense is admittedly not the best. But seriously, uber-designer shit is overrated. You can get equivalently good looking things of the same styles for a fraction of the cost. Those bapes you’re rocking look about the same as some shit I saw at journey’s if not worse I can pretty much guarantee. The only difference is what the underside of the tongue says and the fact that you dropped $250 more on your checking account when you paid for that shit on your debit card cuz you got paid this weekend.

It’s redundant and been said way 2 many times, but you pay for the name…and how ppl honestly are impressed when they do happen to see the tag of your shirt, jeans, or shoes… not me, and not any respectable women…maybe some wanna be thugs, over-hyped hip hop heads, or some gold diggin ass tricks…thats about it. Just means you spend way 2 much on some shit that looks as good as the jeans I got from kohls.

justify it all you want…but you know you are nodding your head at the monitor right now. That’s my 2c. Yall got some serious style in this thread but honestly you should be checking out that finance thread about what you should really be putting your money into.

-Shag

if you talk about it like its 100% the name that an article has then you really dont understand quality standards or construction

QFT!

-SH

Also, when it comes to sneakers I don’t think anyone buys them just for the name. It’s a fact, pimp dunks look well… pimp. If sketchers made shoe’s that looked as good as dunks do I’d buy them.

truth…
and just because people spend money on clothes has nothing to do with their finances. I have a 401k, and I’m working on investments so I’m comfortable blowing money on some clothing that I want. Hell, half of the people you’re talking to pretty much get their clothes for free reselling shit to the people you think you were addressing with your 2c. Don’t take this as me being a smart ass either, I’m just being real…and please show me the kohl’s jeans that you’re talking about, becuase from personal experience, cheaper clothes = cheap quality, and looking cheap never looks good.

and those cement spikes releasing in december need to be copped IMO.

This is a case by case argument though. Just as looks can be comparible(sometimes better), so can quality.
