It's cool if you legit like them, but all I'm saying is wait for a bit before copping since you are probably just starting out in fashion. The fact that you p much said "Idk I want these velcros but i'd rather have all white ones. idk if I'll find them so i'll just wait for geobaskets" just means to me that you don't really know what you're looking for and you just want a pair of /fa/-approved sneakers

Like I'll admit when I first went to /mu/ I really liked ITAOTS and would even dare to put it in my top 5. I mean sure it's a good album, but it's not as good as /mu/ makes it out to be. After a while my taste developed and although I still like ITAOTS, there were other albums I liked that were a lot better

check out Damir Doma (mainline), SILENT, Cinzia Araia, KVA, Dior, or Diet Butcher Slim Skin to start you off

You are actually really right on where I'm at right now. I've been coming to /fa/ for around a year and a half and the tastes of the board have defiantly rubbed off on me. I'm trying to establish my own though. The ITAOTS comparison is on point too, and I feel like my own personal taste is finally developing. But the whole choosing between the different shoes thing also plays into how I am really indecisive about my purchases and find it hard to settle on one thing.

Raf's, it was down to them an the Y3s, I ruled out the other two because they wouldn't be as versatile, and picked the Rafs because I wanted leather.

Why does no one complain about this price for new raf velcros though? God, that would be an incredible deal on new geobaskets. Yet I like the design of falcos so much more than either of those, so I have no shame in spending the money on them.

Damir Falcos are like $850, Rafs are three hundred and fifty less.

Also people don't complain about the price on /fa/ because one, we all know how much designer clothes cost and at least a decent percentage of us are used to paying it, and two, /fa/'s autism can't handle someone complaining about price.

>>7761748
People have different things they spend money on, clothes, cars, videogames, computers, gadgets, instruments, they're just hobbies. One isn't inherently more valuable than the other, and you can resell a pair of raf velcros when you're bored of them for $400 easily.

few architects do either of those things

more likely broke after designing a few moderately cool things

why would you hate on him? he has a profession based on a mindset that creates the kind of things you stare at for hours on this very imageboard

being a designer applies to many things in the physical world, and the ideas and theory behind a building are relatively close to that of clothes

look at any famous designer and look at the kind of stuff they did branching off

eg. Rei design DSL (and kind of failing, but aht's besides the point)
