ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

I don't really ever have any idea what to think when I see runway fashion anyway and I can't say this stuff seems more ridiculous than other stuff I've seen, possibly less, and also I think knee-jerk Kanye hate is really boring. That zombie macro is funny though.

boring... wow strong stuff

Good clothes for lagoon http://techcrunch.com/2015/10/28/yajoe-makes-clothes-for-all-us-nerds-geeks/

I may be wrong, but from this nerd's perspective, these clothes fail the nerd sniff test because of the price tag their carrying: $198 for the quantum hoodie, $98 for the nimiq shirt, $72 for a plaid shirt, $28 for a t-shirt that doesn't even have an awesome science quote? I think you're confusing us with hipsters. $24 for a single pair of boxer briefs?

wish there were a more identifiable pejorative way to refer to these garbage people. everyone is a fucking nerd now.

call them techmunches

that's a good pejorative imo

little eichmanns

will say w/ full honesty that i wish some (SOME) of those kanye pieces were cheaper because i would buy them, they are dope

knee-jerk kanye hate is super lame

like i dig this whole look a lot tbh

but like $250 is prob the max i would spend on an article of clothing and only then it would be like a heavy winter coat

my hatred of kanye is very nuanced and considerate tyvm

uncanny

knee jerk kanye hate is sadly appropriate these days

"BlaBlaCar COO Nicolas Brusson To Talk About France’s New Unicorn At Disrupt London Save £400 On Tickets Now "

i dont hate kanye but at those prices he has to realize how little of the nerd market hes going to get for his clothes...

i prefer to spend my disposable income on collectable figurines tbqh

lol not at all! every one of those was like, kanye's version is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better

i don't know why i'm stanning so hard for this fwiw i think i'm am just like "oh baggy fitting olive charcoal neutrals those are my colors and someone created a whole fucking line for that, dope"

Topman is shit

yeah man i went through that entire post and just kept smh'ing the whole time, those cheap alternatives just made me love yeezy line more

its a good line for wearing to an underground rave in the matrix

exactly

wait was that a negative thing because i want to go to an underground rave in the matrix wearing those clothes

its like u didnt absorb the message of the matrix movies at all

i assume rtc meant those alternatives are nothing like the yeezy stuff - i mean like or hate the yeezy stuff, it's like "yeezy shirt" - "HERE IS ANOTHER ITEM, ALSO A SHIRT"

the our legacy zip shirt they include is quite cool in its own right tho.

two nights ago i was at a bodega and the dude behind the counter was quoting the entire scene about bending a spoon with your mind to the person at the front of the line. he claimed, and i quote, that it took him 'two years' to fully grasp the complexity of that scene. so it can take a while for that stuff to sink in

i have no opinions about kanye west or his clothes but i think we should all agree that dressing like an extra from one of the unpopular movies directed by the wachowski siblings is really, really cool.

the other day (more anecdotes) a friend and i were describing stuff that was cool and i said 'a long-ass black t-shirt with some word or phrase in block letters on it and like, zippers that dont serve any purpose. it should also have pockets'. my friend had a lot of good ideas but i wont repeat them here.

better patent that

haha like two days after that lunch i saw this handsome korean guy in a thigh-length black t-shirt with a zipper running up the side for like 10 inches. we also brainstormed pants that have snaps on them for no reason if you're looking for #trends

Oh there is totally a matrix vibe to the yeezy line, I feel like kanye has been into industrial goth shit for a little while now since idk maybe yeezus

read "pants that have maps of them" and was nodding yes that's a good idea xp

maps on them, rather

pants that are also a treasure map do seem really cool

We just call that stuff "postapocalyptic knitwear" now. You've got the whole film/tv trope of desaturating everything to remind viewers that the world has ended, so the only thing for the costumers to play with is texture, and nothing can look shiny, and ta-da, the yeezy line.

It feels a little disappointing when film and TV costuming is informing high fashion and not the other way around. Doesn't it?

high fashion is mostly taking ideas from elsewhere (the street) and making them fancy

not that ye is high fashion, hes a man w/o a place, lost, maybe accidentally wandering into the kardashian living room during filming

high fashion is mostly taking ideas from elsewhere (the street) and making them fancy

well and avoiding descent into self parody a la "Derelicte"

ye shd do his take on derelicté

i like obama's outfit in this picture

no obama is the one on the left

eyy look im not saying its a 10/10 style smash but of the photos ive seen of him not wearing a suit it sure beats

(or not?)

at first i lolled at the guy behind him's mop but then i remember its halloween and its prob a wig

lol. that collar, geez. i do like the brown shoes with black pants (progressive)

xp

that dark gray shirt should not be worn by anyone least of all our leader.

secret service guy looks good tho!

hungover af obv

dark gray collar: out
secret service shades: in

the pres's shoes are strange - are they like suede sneakers or something? they look like the place where fashion sneakers take a wrong turn and end up as gardening wear

eyy look im not saying its a 10/10 style smash but of the photos ive seen of him not wearing a suit it sure beats
