no the racism charge itt re: CG was more directed at that tumblr, not at the CG hate in general

Lamp's point is quite possible, i have no idea. I am new to canada, know nothing of Toronto, am probably missing some cultural context. that said it was as much the fact that 75% of the photos are of azn people as that pretty much every photo caption of a black person suddenly turned up the slang pretty high. anyway, i just have hurt feelings because i am new to the parka lifestyle and didn't know all the codes yet.

I lived in chicago for ten years and got by for the first nine with something I bought in marshall fields for like $80 and eventually had no insulation at all near the pockets, then I got a Spiewak duffle coat at the end of my last winter there, but it would not cut it here.

I have this "Classic English Duffle Coat" with no brand, just says inside that it's an English duffle coat made in england -- I think I bought it off a coat guy at Brooklyn flea for around $100. I rocked it for a little while but somehow I don't quite know what to do with it, like it's sort of somewhere in between a casual coat and an overcoat, and the style is a little bit poncey, and it's not warm enough for super cold days but kind of too much square footage of heavy material too be wearing on a non-cold day.

that is 100% otm about my duffle coat too, i am always surprised how heavy it is

yeah heavy and stiff too

reposting this Rod Taylor (RIP) pic b/c damn, this is how a jacket should look

Backpacks are fine but I am on year 7 of my chrome bag and idk if I could ever use anything else at this point.

Deceptively spacious!
Pulls right against the body so it doesn't bounce around when you bike!
Loosen the strap and sling it around to access the contents w/o removing it (you can even do this on your bike fyi)!

i have never in my life worn a messenger style bag, factoid

really like these southern field industries backpacks

When I was in Korea earlier this year square/structured ones like that first one were very popular, you couldn't find anything else in the store

i like shapeless sacks, more chill

Btw can somebody help me find the latest dope kicks thread

xp seems a propos on this thread to mention that that little twist of Hitchcock's right shirt collar point was an intentional part of his look ... there's a story about him hating an oil portrait in which the artist straightened it out

those are awesome.

i've had a really hard time not slipping on the ice while wearing my beautiful red wings with a smooth bottom.

thinking about investing in some new jeans soon, but i don't know how skinny or tapered they are supposed to be in 2015. is the style changing?

thank you! i was looking for an article that explained the cg thing the other day. i still think it's just a fucking parka but good for them.

I don't mind cg, and think they look nice and warm. But pretty sure I'd never pay that much. Unless I had a lot more money, then sure.

rich ppl who dont have fancy clothes are really blowin it

i remember i had a canada goose jacket growing up. didn't realize they were a thing, always made me think of dorky 90s ware. speaking of which, it seems like the whole normcore thing has saturated the NYC suburbs pretty thoroughly, quickest i've ever seen a trend get picked up. everyone in my office is rockin' it right now, even the VP of my department.

Wound up with two full cut Peter Millar suits from Nordstrom today for about 750 total - realized the 38 in the full looked much better than the 40 in the trim cuts. Style forum dudes seem to think millar is a good value, non trendy but quality.

oh i got sorel boots similar to those bean duck boots a few weeks ago

i like the maine hunting shoe tho tbh i was just looking at it yesterday thinking about what i wld do if i had it all to do over again

the maine hunting shoe is perhaps a little too old-timey like costume clothing almost. for my taste anyway.

just got myself a pair of these
