    Birkenstock now into doing some collabs with streetwear designers, they turned down supreme and vetements recently but seem to be changing course.

    I have a hookup at an online retailer but I have pretty big feet and they don't go up to size 13 at that store.

    otherwise I'd totally cop some rick owens. I was trying to get some black patent birkenstocks but they only had them in Narrow sizes.

    He looks homeless, and I know homeless I grew up in Portland. -This isn't making fun of homeless people just saying he doesn't look like he's got all that much going on...

    Streetwear going couture isn’t going to end well. Peeps like the underground disruptive culture of streetwear, and it has formerly been eminently wearable, comfortable clothing. We will see, but turning streetwear fashion into Louis Vuitton is going to be awkward in a year when “streetwear is dead” and the runways move on.

    Luxury clothing is generally high quality, so I get the appeal. The $100 t shirt has always been a hustle, but you have to pay more for high end materials, regardless of the brand.

    I used to think that, but honestly, I think its a huge scam nowadays. Shoes are different since they are leather, but cotton?

    My $10 Uniqlos are a lot better than my $50 James Perse v-necks.

    I'll spend more on jackets and kicks, but basics, Jeans, T-shirts, V-necks, I can do at Uniqlo and its all good.
