me irl

I tried to find the most "over it" looking GIS possible. Awwwww.

pull over it more like

ohhhhhhhhh

dope!

I was honestly skeptical of these patagonia pullovers til I saw that one, nice choice

Any skepticism I may have felt was dispelled by that bird.

I love fleeces.

nice stuff

If there's anything particularly alluring about these simple clothes, though, it's the contradictions that they communicate. Everlane clothes suggest affluence as much as they do modesty. They enable you to "pass" within the corporate world while at the same time signaling a certain countercultural rebelliousness to those who are "with it" enough to pick up on their idiosyncrasies.

the everlane sweatshirt fit me not at all

Destroy this brand and all those associated with it, plus some chickens

just ordered this http://i.imgur.com/KzVE5Py.jpg been looking for a shirt in that medium denim for a while now

I own tons of everlane stuff and I love it

Their stuff looks good and they have obviously spent a lot of time thinking about their brand and what it should be but

I always lol at their "we found the one good factory in China" shtick t[here are no good factories in China

yeah i mean theyre not any more worth buying as like "sweatshop labor free" than american apparel is

but if you are looking to cultivate an "interestingly boring" aesthetic as i always am they're perfect

Never heard of em but I just looked at their clothes and I can imagine how they would (not) fit me, and how they would look. I'll stick with my chosen mall-wear.

I'm intrigued.

expensive uniqlo or cheap apc

that's not a diss btw - the bags look nice

i have one of the weekend bags and a bunch of their tees and sweats. better quality for the same price from, say, j. crew.

I've never heard of it either but the site looks good and I'd fux w/ this stuff if I could try it on first

i would get a bag if they shipped to europe.

j crew is p bad quality and they converted their us prices to pounds when they opened in london, which is crazy.

if anyone is thinking of ordering i suggest they, uh, sign up through this link so i can get some credit

Cheaper! Everlane rules!

THis probably just shows my limited frame of reference but the other thing about them that strikes me is that they just remind me of Muji lol

the twill backpack i got rules, best backpack. someone actually complimented me on my backpack.

Yeah there is a muji esque thing, sort of aggressive simplicity, even an ikea vackrare vardagsvara thing too

everlame

i like uniqlo for basics and workwear, but these ill-fitting grey sweat tops and jeans, i dunno. just strikes me as trickle-down normcore.

I don't think this is normcore -_-

i found a cheap big slouchy overcoat and i bought it

I like everlane because it happens to fit me better than any other standard-sized brand that i've tried and can afford, but the way their women's stuff is tailored seems strangely specific. iirc that article mentions them being "boxy" which is exactly what a friend said before returning everything she'd bought (she said you need to be kind of 'boyish' and angular to make it work). their brand story is def annoying and i'm sure 龜 is right about the factories, but the quality is unquestionably superior to uniqlo. no reason to spend $$ shipping to the uk though

yes xp

not feeling this boxy look i've noticed recently. just not sure what to make of things, e.g. here https://www.etsy.com/listing/213349539/similar?ex=etsy_finds&ref=etsy_finds&utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=etsy_finds_021515_21339621928_0_3&campaign_label=etsy_finds&euid=zyR-qhqXOAH4dXPgyjMiBY7tZkXn&eaid=7790379598&redirect=1&filters=men+clothing+-baby+-children+-supplies

I like boxy but I have to fit an actual body inside of it. If it depends on having shoulders like a geometry lesson to make it work and I can't close the buttons, I'm out.

everlane sweatshirt slim, too slim for me

especially since im wanting a less slim sweatshirt these days, but even if i wanted a slim one its too slim, too bad seem nice otherwise

but dont worry im wearing my xl patriots hoodie

lagoon u should try fanmail

ha i already get too much of the stuff!

jk

i will try it looks cool

i like their naming

dang u think at those prices they cld do better
