Hi, I'm Alex! I went by evilfriends on the old forum. I met some of you in London once.

I'm a 24 year old software dev from Russia living in Cologne, Germany. I like betting on soccer matches, reading books and Dark Souls. :mrgreen:

This is rubymtn, named for the range in northeastern Nevada. I lurked for multiple years without posting a thing because it is in my blood to do so. I'm from the South (US) and am predictably twentyish but I prefer to be spare with personal info. I initially approached fashion from what I could get in army surplus stores and farm co-ops but the approach stuck. I like hard clothing that feels like armor. I own two pairs of kiko asics but i don't want that to color your view of me. I want a universe where I can wear full john alexander skelton and not look like I do card tricks.

I like music and dense books and all the other stuff everyone else here likes. I unfortunately don't care for hyperpop which a lot of people here seem to like.

My favorite pieces are my PAA stonewash jeans and my red MAN-TLE waffle knit. I also love my Y's for men short mac.

Favorite albums:
US Maple - Sang Phat Editor
Birchville Cat Motel - Beautiful Speck Triumph
Silkworm - It'll Be Cool
I also really like the song "Mexico" by 12 Rods off of the Gay? remixes.

ellooo! radbiz here - been consistently barely active on c-t and reddit prior since I was a teen. I'm 25 now o_0

Right now I'm doing the nonprofit drone thing in Seattle. Lately been finding enjoyment in meditation, gardening, birding (wasup @jrisk ;)) and freelance journalism projects. Unfortunately got back into the game this last year buying EG on poshmark :?

Hi there, Bleeker here, same as on the old site. Didn't post too much back then, probably won't post too much here either.
Since I first joined the site, fashion as a personal hobby has ebbed off for me but I still enjoy (mostly reading) the discussion around the topic. I think it's great that c-t has been more than a solely fashion focused forum for as long as I can remember and occupies a special niche here online.
If I start posting again it'll probably be once there's a thread about a certain outdoor activity that involves two wheeled human-powered vehicles, since that's where my interests have lain the past few years.
Oh yeah, I've also gotten into tea the past year, are there any so-called teaheads on here? I also love music, especially experimental or folksy stuff, that and the rest of my interests probably fall in line with those of the average user here.
See y'all around!

Just moved to Ottawa. 29, city planner, into making music and art. Lately I've been reading more and trying to be more deliberate online.

Thanks for bringing this back!
