Ramdom fashion thoughts

conspiracy theory of the day:

all that pushback against graphic tees (and any/all clothing with any sort of "cartoon-y" graphic on it in general) that all those boring reddit MAFAF "number one boss moderator mans" (or whatever) peddled back in the day with the intent of making it seem as if all that stuff is "childish" and that instead you require simple solid color shirts (to wear underneath your gingham linen OCBD flannel) if you want anyone older than the age of 19 to take you seriously... that all was 100% the result of a coordinated monetary partnership that rich reddit admins had with h&m and gap and old navy and all the other good ol bois... bent on keeping kids with limited cash flow who only got like 6 upvo- i mean, "rep" per fit every WYWAYWT extremely unconfident and insecure with their own fashion sense, and constantly feeling like they needed to buy "mature" clothes... that only the aforementioned brands would offer in their price range.

you know this honestly kinda tracks with something I noticed back in the day, used to work at a journeys shoe store and they made a huge deal about selling their no-show socks (the "socks on the box" policy).

on MFA meanwhile, any time someone would ask about socks there would be a chorus of accounts like "oh get no-shows they're way cleaner/whatever, oh where to get them? I love journeys, go to your local mall, etc." could definitely be a case of, reddit guy goes to the 'cool' shoe store and they bully him into being a journeys no-show hype man, but the frequency of it always struck me as a little off

love the esoteric mfa posting. if you're ever wondering if something you read online was a psy op, definitely default to yes.

[skunk ape]

No, no posting online is a psy op. Keep on posting, citizen.

Most young labels would probably debut their products on a hastily-assembled Shopify page or through brief Instagram posts. Child’s play for Throup, who will deliver Anatomyland’s first drop — several “intricately constructed collectable digital characters” — as NFTs through Nifty Gateway. Following this, Anatomyland will issue limited “First Edition” runs of the design archetypes introduced in those NFTs for several months, succeeded by a wider release of completed creations after the entire First Edition lineup is rolled out.

10/10 grifter, one to aspire too

Xpost confession of shameful things: i want those EG Yuketens.

just snagged a pair. sizing is nike sizing (I wear 8 in nike pegasus and most other nikes, 8 in these)

might be explicitly for you as much as i hate to say it - relatively light, comfy, decent leather on the uppers, wack construction (they're just made in dominican republic boat shoes) and a nice shape. fit the "timb 3 eyes" world without being 3 eyes which are boat shoes for new englanders who skateboard and "wouldn't be caught dead in sperries"

ive been out of the game for a few years, need to replace some wardrobe items and feel so lost. the world moves fast

What about that vibe where you get something and it's meant to be IDENTICAL to the thing you used to have but wore out, but for some reason you can't bring yourself to start wearing the new thing because it just seems "off" in some way.

I own a lot of supreme work pants and the little differences between them are slightly aggravating

[skunk ape]

Also who am I kidding, I'm gonna buy another suit in some dumbshit fabric because that is who I am.

im clairvoyant
