[DISCUSSION] To thank this sub for helping me change my life, here are 10 Steam keys for Garfield Kart

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 11:00 AM PST

Okay so using an alt account since this is personal and I'll try to keep this as concise as possible.

Throughout most of high school I was the typical nerdy/loser type. Virtually no friends, bad acne and oily hair due to a lack of awareness on how to take care of myself, couldn't speak to a girl to save my life, back was fucked from sitting at a computer all day... the list goes on.

Then, somehow, while watching Pyrocynical talk about some lesbian shit while playing Garfield Kart, I came to the realization that if I want to stop being a depressed loser for all eternity, I need to make a change.

So I opened Reddit and went to the front page to procrastinate.

Then, I saw a /r/streetwear post. I can't remember who it was, probably Konnie or that Russian spy guy. I thought they looked cool so I opened the sub and saw even more cool people. Some guy who spent $500 on a shirt that said "White," some rapper wearing a cozy brown outfit and these weird shoes that looked like hovercrafts.

I was totally intrigued and spent the next few months reading up on fashion and learning everything I could. Eventually stopped splurging on CS:GO cases and put all my money towards clothes. It was really cringy at first but for some reason everyone at my school thought it looked nice and I got a lot of compliments, made a lot of friends who are still my best friends today and overall became a lot more confident.

My first "fit" was a longline pink shirt, cream jersey with short sleeves, light gray jeans and a pair of white vans. I thought I was awesome lol. Dabbled in techwear, SLP, MFA-esque stuff and eventually settled on my own frugal approach to Rick Owens mixed with clothing I can actually wear in the future as an adult.

Along the way I came across other self-improvement subs as there was no point wearing cool clothes if I looked like an ugly rat. Everything from SelfImprovement and IWantToLearn and Minimalism to MaleFashionAdvice and SkincareAddiction.

Reddit completely changed who I am, who I socialize with on a daily basis, my job, hobbies, interests and overall image. It all started with this sub and my life would have probably ended a long time ago if not for this so thank you all.

In light of the above, are 10 codes for Garfield Kart. The second character of each has been put in the respective number order below to stop them being automatically picked up by dickheads. Please be kind and confirm the key you've redeemed to not waste others times.

Thanks!

[Discussion] Other Color Shades of Camo besides traditional Green

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 10:42 AM PST

I recently copped this Quilted Camo Jacket that has a cool orange inside, but have been getting alot of criticism from my friends because it's not green. They argue that if you are wearing Camo it has to be a shade of Green, and the these newer versions in Black, Grey, Navy, etc are just tacky. I still like the jacket but never heard of something like this before.. what are your thoughts on wearing Camo/ other colors besides Green in it?

Massive list of reputable TaoBao and AliExpress stores.

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 04:31 PM PST

Hey r/streetwear!

I noticed that services like TaoBao and AliExpress have a bad reputation on this sub for "allowing sellers" to sell replicas, when there are also reputable stores and brands that sell their own pieces on there. That's why I decided to make a spreadsheet listing some stores worth checking out.

The stores vary from basics to pretty expressive pieces and mid-end throughout high-end designers that look worth checking out. So the prices vary throughout. (TaoBao prices are in Chinese Yuan, and AliExpress prices are in US Dollars.)

If there are stores that I haven't listed but are worth mentioning in the spreadsheet, feel free to comment or PM me them so I can add them to it.

I hope you guys enjoy!

Edit: Keep in mind to check the sizing tables. Most of the stores on this list use Asian sizing, which is significantly smaller. An Asian XL (for example) will fit like an European M or L. But then there are some stores that use European sizing, so make sure to know the measurements you'd like the item to be before receiving a way too small piece.

[DISCUSSION] Best/Worst Experiences with Online Clothing Stores

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 06:24 PM PST

Doing some research on the matter, and I know the community here on r/streetwear has a lot to say about the "do's and (mostly) don'ts" of the places you guys choose to spend your money at (or not, which is equally important).

Please keep in mind that these questions/topics are aimed at the idea of online stores and purchases.

EDIT: I don't think I've been clear enough. I want to know what "elements" make up a good experience. Imagine your perfect online store is your "dream" girl"; what do you want to see in her?

~

How vital would it be to have a source for 100% genuine, new items from limited runs (i.e. Supreme, Nike, Palace, etc.) with prices matching or even below market price?

What do you look for in regards to user interface?

What do you find yourself saying or noticing about a good experience with a clothing store?

What are the worst things about purchasing clothes online? Aside from obviously not being able to try the garments on.

What do you find yourself (or peers) saying could be better about the online clothing experience?

What kind of budget do you have when it comes to second-hand/vintage/thrift items? What is a good price for sweatshirts? Outerwear? Pants? Shoes? Bags? etc.

How does it make you feel if the garments are guaranteed to be freshly cleaned and kept neat? Assume they have a "like new" appearance.

~

Responses to any and all of these questions and concepts would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to PM me to discuss anything pertaining the subject!

Thank you for your time.

[DISCUSSION] Vintage DESCENTE cyclewear - A case for the branding origins of OFF-WHITE

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 12:10 PM PST

Seeing as I haven't found any discussion across the internet linking what I think is an interesting resemblance, I thought I would post here and see what you all think.

A couple of weeks ago, I was thrifting and came across this shirt. Now I'm an avid cycler and this tickled my fancy for not only its beautiful design but for its' Japanese cycle-wear origins. I was also immediately struck by the similarity to what has now become synonymous, with the brand Off-White, that is the diagonal line motif and arrows most commonly seen across a range of Off-White products like this.

Given Off-white being in the news recently for trademarking those diagonal lines it was interesting to find them here, beside a logo of arrows so similar to its own. A peculiar coincidence. So I looked a little more and what I found was surprising. Japanese sportswear company, Descente, manufactured an array of cycling jerseys from the 1970s to early 80's that all included the same diagonal line motif across all their sleeves with of course their trademark arrow logo beside it. You can do your own research but this is an album I created of my own shirt and ebay listings for "vintage descente cycling". It's just interesting that before Off-white those diagonal lines were most certainly synonymous with Descente cycling jerseys. I feel its almost too similar for it to be mere coincidence so I'm curious to hear what yall think.

And honestly those cycling jerseys are cool as shit.

[DISCUSSION] Streetwear History: Willi Smith, Steet Couture Pioneer Would Have Been 70 Today

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 09:58 PM PST

Spare a moment today to learn about and remember Willi Smith. Smith won awards for both women's and men's fashions in 1983 and 1985 respectively, and was well on his way to building a fashion empire before being taken much too young at age 39. It's impossible to emphasize enough the impact Willi Wear had on street fashion. Though many of his designs are largely undocumented on the web, they can still be found at steal prices and certainly continue to inspire knowledgeable streetwear designers worldwide.

Part Two of Teddy Fresh's second drop.

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 05:14 PM PST

I posted about the first part of Teddy Fresh's 2nd drop two weeks ago, link

There was a lot of good conversation around the brand, and they just dropped part 2 of their 2nd drop.

https://teddyfresh.com/

The drop includes two sweatsuit combos and two tees. I really like the color blocked sweats, the colors mesh nicely together. Definitely see a lot of inspiration from Apathy here. The cut on the hoodie is well balanced, the coloring of the pocket rims, seems a little weird to me, but not too off-putting. The colorblocked sweatpants are also done well, don't really like the big embroidered patch though. The stripe sweats, are a hard miss for me, looks a lot like 90s workout gear. The bright highlighted colors pop too much, with the bland black background, but I can see the appeal, with plain shoes you could make a nice outfit. The two t-shirts are nice, but nothing special, I really like the dark blue with orangish yellow, and the rembroidery is cute.

So what do you guys think? They seem a bit on the more expensive side, $75 for the jackets and $65 for the sweatpants, still cheaper than Supreme, around Pacsun's prices.

[Discussion] Fly Shorts

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 10:42 PM PST

I prefer pants but in the summer can never find any shorts that are fly enough. Anybody have any go to's that they like to wear a lot in the summer time like denim or chino, anything non athletic.

"BOTTOMS The most important part of bottoms that people over look is THEY SHOULD SUIT YOUR BODY FIGURE. If you wear a size XXL and buy super slim pants your ass finna look like a lamp, and no one loves lamps but brick. Pants always too long? Never fit right with your sneakers? Pinrolling will change your life.

Joggers Lets start off with joggers

Anyhow Joggers are basically the most comfortable pants you'll ever wear. Definitely great pants if you're trying to let your kick game shine. There are all types of joggers whether you want chino, sweatpants, or even denim. If you're looking for a pair, definitely check out this guide.

Jeans Probably the most popular jeans out there, Levi's Levi's have every fit and every color you could want in a pair of jeans, look up on their website how all their fits work, pick one best tailored to your body shape, then go out and about like the majestic beast you are look sharp af."

This is from a previous post about the essentials guide to streetwear but mentions nothing about shorts!
