yes Duchamp appears to be top notch judging from their site.. im definitely ordering some squares and socks and maybe a tie or two for spring wearing...

For some reason I have the strongest urge to buy those Infrared VI's that came out not too long ago.

 - check out SAKS - you can get those same socks for 1/4 of the price.
 - those pocket squares will be VERY difficult to match with ANYTHING. colors are too out there.

I picked up a pair.  My first pair of non-running kicks from Nike in over 2 years

.  I usually pick up a good pair of runners once a year and that's about it... far cry from what it used to be.

Anybody see any nice black dress shoes on sale recently? I've got some CK boots but they're a bit dressy for my office and have a buckle on the side. I'm OK with paying $100-150 for a nice pair.

I also need a messenger bag, leather preferably, anybody know of a nice one for $100-150 as well? Someone posted a company in NYC that personalized each bag sold with a letter, seemed really cool and they posted pics, thanks in advance all.

The deed is done.  They're on the way to the house.  I think I-VII can be worn like how high top Chucks or any fashionable sneakers can be.  The VIII+ started to get a bit too 'futuristic' for a lack of better word.

Hey guys, love this post. Its always a good read.

Im about to buy some steel blue pants, these are 30% wool 70% polyester. Is steel blue always shiny?

I find any Jordans pretty bulky now except for the I's, maybe even the II's.
I wanted to wear the III's and IV's and I just can't pull it off with a tapered leg opening.

JDB1523, the bags you are talking about are Ernest Alexander. http://ernestalexander.com/shop/
Their price has gone up.

For dress shoes, for that price range check out Johnston & Murphy or Cole Haan at the outlets.
Nordstrom Rack is also a good place to browse around for shoes.

The sheen will probably be due to the material and how it is finished rather than the color name.
Sometimes steel blue has a metallic flake to it too but it really depends how the manufacturers names the color of their clothes.
Blue from one brand may differ from another.

Sorry I can't be much more help than that.

My Desert Boots stay in heavy rotation. The sand colour has really been messed up by this snow here though. I've been thinking about copping a black pair or maybe grey.

Anyone got sites with a variaty of JV Converse for fair prices? I think I may need a pair or two soon.

anyone got coupon codes for ssense? I'm trying to justify $300 for track pants, lol. Anything will save the pain.

 

[bert739]

you get my vote just cuz of the 'fro

Also, has anyone seen any tweed blazers on sale recently? Maybe between $100-200? Looking for one I can rock to work with chinos or even dress pants. I'm running out to Chicago for work this week, if that helps. Thanks all.

I just bought a long time holy grail at the Barneys sample sale. Black Dior Homme blazer.

Shirt + Knit Tie + Dark Indigo Raw Denim + Desert Boots for casual occasion. Yay or negative?

Depends on how casual I guess. Definitely could be pulled off though. I'd probably switch the denim for khakis though.

Sleeves seem a bit too long, which should be an easy fix though.

RFX- I will let you know how those VIs fit with my jeans when I get them in. 

  The best I can do is slim straight so I think I will be OK.

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

I wore my VI's w/ my Gap 'Authentic fit' jeans and it looked very good IMO.

Apparently Young Money will be coming out with several clothing lines. Lil Wayne will cater a line to the streets. Nikki will make a line for women. Drake will make a preppy line. I've heard this on Sirius radio earlier today. I doubt I will buy any, but would be interesting to see Drake's line.
