Everybody will get their chance to be a stylish old man someday. Try to maintain 2-3% total body fat, though.

The North Face here has some great stuff. Nanamica X The North Face gore-tex single breasted mac for like 59,000Y - kinda want to get this myself to wear over suits if it's not sold out, because I for sure can't make one for myself at that price, really. Nice collaboration of strengths in this one.

Pillow shirt is cool, never liked the mushy pillows they give you anyways. But then again, this probably feels like having a flotation device around your neck...

yeah I really like the ones you picked. That mac jacket in the last shot was really cool, and looked good in all of the other colors too. I like the way the collar fastens and the rest of it is open creating that upside down V shape showing the layers underneath

Also like the idea of buttoning the top and leaving the lower half open. Can't be too obvious though or you'll look like you're trying too hard.
It's pretty cool they're repping safari jordans. Not many designers put huge hiphop sneakers in their looks. I used to be a big nike head collector but selling em all now

Yeah those were Mercibeaucoup, I think that stuff is pretty popular actually. You can even get fakes on US eBay but I can't find them right now :(


That shirt with the inflatable collar, years ago I used to have this Burton hoodie with an inflatable pillow/collar thing built into it. It had other nice stuff like a way to run your headphone cables up through it, inside pockets for your passport and a hidden stash pocket in the hem. I wonder if they still make those, I'd probably get one again if it didn't have obnoxious graphics or something.


oh yeah and edn0b, thanks for posting that up. some really cool stuff to look into.
