.Rybak.Just had a little precum on that one.
rudagerGonna fill it with gear probably
PastieThose are money
Chubz.Just picked this little thing up :))
Laurent.New winter parka from Stone Island.
Way better made then the Canada Goose and Woolwich that I've had before.
Very dark navy, bit hard to photograph.
And knifes to complete the Chav package, considering I'm such a hard lad.
nutz.I was considering that parka, what is the sizing like?
nutz.
almost got x2, but ended up only getting 1.
Oh well time for max profits
.Rybak.How much are you going to sell them for?
nutz.Ebay says im looking at 2k-3k so I'm beyond stoked, yay for more ski trips!

.Rybak.Holy fak. How much is retail?
Chubz.350 i think? Either that or 225 i believe
.Rybak.Anyone who would spend that amount on shoes is a moron. (Im talking about 1000) hell, i think that $300 is idiotic.
nutz.Meh, sneakers maybe but I boots 300 is on the lower end

Laurent.Disregarding those tragic resale wonders above.
For sneakers, meh, 300 is nearly entering high-fashion territory. usually made in Italy with better techniques from way better leather. Much better then regular Nike or Adidas.
But for 'dress' shoes it doesn't even really start there. (Yes i'm disregarding Meermin) double up that 300 for Santoni or C&J Handgrade.
And then it's a slow crawl past Lobb and the lot till you get to Ugolini and Bestetti who will make a custom shoe on a personal last that is made after your feet. We are talking in excess of two grand here now.
Quite a princely sum, but then again the latter mentioned with due care and a few resoles will last a lifetime. Not even a joke, prince Charles's favourite pair of shoes is most famously a bespoke pair of Lobb's that's now 45+ years old.
As everything in life, you get what you pay for. And determine for yourself how easily satisfied you are.
.Rybak.I guess I was more talking about sneakers like nike and adidas. Dress shoes are a comoletely different thing.
I guess I'm just not high fashion enough to understand.
Laurent.Well in that case, they are just Adidas and not high fashion because Kanye isn't. Material and manufacturing wise they don't differ much from the rest of Adidas, they aren't worth it.
The Rick Adidas those are high fashion but it makes you look like you have hooves or polygonic heels.
Any Adidas or Nike's above 200 are going to be incredibly overpriced for what they are.

LemuelHopefully these boots actually last me a long time. Turns out I am in the wrong size boot (what a surprise). Also being a boot fitter has it's perks. Pair of Lange RX 130 LV's are on the way in a 25.5

Couldn't pass it up for $150
Banane.Love mine man, good choice!
