/fa/ - Fashion

I want to make a good quality post in this thread but I'll do it tomorrow as I'm about to sleep. I will say for now though that in the past 3 or so years their designs are nowhere near as good as they used to be, but they do occasionally produce some good stuff. I still love the brand overall though.

Yes, read Ubik.

For whatever reason they decided to start overdying everything, put barely any effort into the graphic design of the prints, and move away from the idea of distorting conventional streetwear imagery. They're selling the red patch now rather than their brand as a concept. I never used to have spare money to throw around for brand new stuff; now that I do have spare money, they dont make anything I want to buy anymore. There's maybe one or two good item(s) per season, and their prices on everything have gone up. Even trying to buy stuff second hand is far more expensive than it used to be. You used to be able to get 2014 mockneck sweatshirts for as low as $25 in decent conditon, now youre paying at least $80 for the same thing. I still love their old stuff though and lurk everywhere I can to get my hands on it. The Replacable sweatshirt in this pic I just happened to see while walking past a thrift store in Kyoto in December. I don't think I've ever seen anyone else wearing the suit jacket or the dies irae jacket in this pic either.
