Kinda tempted by these, each year I have considered print trousers and ended up not bothering, I wear more dark colours at the moment, but I think they are p dope.

My j crew factory slacks arrived & i like them a lot

Ty based jh0

nice

Is there a thread of pics of ILXors displaying their outfits?

Unlikely

Anyone want to see pictures of my ratty hoodie collection?

yes

I think I would feel super weird wearing camo trousers but those ones look nice and I would admire them on someone else

Carl said post my outfit from today:

My boring going to a bar to write my performance eval for work. Gray/black striped Uniqlo cardigan, gray slim fit Gap jeans, Cantillon t-shirt, work shoes. Probably should have went with brown shoes, but I didn't feel like switching out my insoles.

I'm impressed you managed to hide so much of the baby chaos in that room.

You can't even see the million child proofing locks on everything.

u know what style of shirt i love that seems totally out of style now to the point that almost none are made is the old school tennis shirt, brooks bros has this one that i dont love, i used to have a few from le tigre that i did love tho, want some

I got some gustin jeans and I like em a lot

it was a fool's errand to ever try to out normcore the gap

xp rad, which ones did you get?

After a few weeks of not thinking about Gustin one day I had the thought to go to their website

They were having a stock sale

I snagged a pair of these https://www.weargustin.com/store/1693

When I checked out and returned to the front page there wasn't any sign of a stock sale

I thought I had dreamt it but then they showed up today

It's kinda got a subtle blue-gray thing going on too

And since it's not indigo it's not gonna get all over my goddam clothes

leather patch looks like really nice leather, the jeans i wear have shitty patches that always rip and crumble

nice! their stock sales seem to end in like 5 minutes ime.

Yeah I guess it was meant to be

I was wary about the fit but I'm pleased to find that their fitting guide is pretty accurate on the website

I also funded these https://www.weargustin.com/store/1618 because I want a pair of jeans that are NONEXMOREXBLACK

Should be getting them right for the start of summer, right when they'll be useless to wear lol

Lol I saw this pic on tumblr and was like "I want this" xp

guys wtf is up with ripped knees these days

like 3 months ago it just STARTED and now it's everywhere. i saw a television magician appear on a talkshow and he was wearing leather trousers with pre-ripped knees.

asos and topman spread these trends p quickly - via kanye west i think, in this case.

i mean obv ripped jeans have been around longer than kanye etc, but as far as this trend goes

ripped jeans were a.. what, metal thing in the early 80s i guess? and immediately prompted spates of pre-ripped jeans (usually also acid-washed).. weird to see it coming back. though this time the rips are specific to the knee and just the knee. the rest of the jeans are impeccable.

ah.. from nov 2013. they call it "grunge":

The current iteration of the ripped jeans trend makes me feel very old and cranky.

ripped jeans seem kinda lame but pants with elastic cuffs otoh I am all about

u cant jog away... from yrself

Yeah I like the jogger hybrids too

I am more tech goth than health goth tho

healthy tech goth

i thought health goth and HBA and wang X H&M was like totally ~out~

thought we were back to wearing jewel tones and eating white castle
