Silk is the king of lining materials. Cupro is a better type of rayon than viscose. Do you know if it has a floating canvas and if it's fully canvassed or not? most jackets that don't advertise canvassing are usually glued. Most designers care more about design than construction and fabric quality.

not much. company dad built from 1998 didn't sell for 27 million because buyers backed out, because of the financial crisis.
dad didn't take the 5 million he was offered because income was still good for some years.
the company then went under in the mid 10s because of a tax thing, some lawyering but over water again. company did in the coming years, slowly and year by year decrease revenue because of burnout+small depression and a lot of other factors.
dad eventually walked away and put all the people as freelancers, and tried to do something else which didn't work.
now he and I get benefits. I see that as a tax returns honestly.

the lesson, buy land and a house not in your name, get your money to switzerland or the bahamas asap, and don't spend the rest to fit in with rich kids and old money folks.

That how you know you‘re talking to an actual woman.

I remember when in ancient times my wife Klaibra displaced the fire maker and we all froze to death.
And guess who‘s fault it was when we were huddled together below the aurochs mural.
Mine.
It was my fault that we didn’t have two fire makers and that I was gone for so long hunting horses in the valley.
Fire makers are not that easy to come by in 19000BP, Klaibra. Our cave is very nice, we wouldn’t come here in hunting season if it wasn’t, my parents are buried here, and I have asked our neighbours—who live in a far worse cave, might I remark, without a multi generational mural, and with a far larger entrance doing a mighty on the heating—to exchange some mushrooms I picked, while hunting!—you could say I *also* gathered, something I have seen *you* avoid recently—for the very fur you‘ve stitched yourself into a new jacket.
The wife of Rolebran would be wearing that in your stead now, looking marvellous. Yet you complain when we freeze to death together—freeze to death after the Rolebrans, who still had their fire maker.

I fell for the ozweego meme.

I still think the all white and all black ozweegos look kinda cool but the only ones i could get my hands on were the ozweego ii in night marine. I didnt care because i just wanted a 'cool' shoe but had no idea what to style them with and still dont.

Maybe its because im not effay enough or maybe its because they're fucking ghastly but i just couldnt pull them off no matter what. I wore them maybe 3-4 times, got laughed at and never wore them again. They are still hauled up in a cupboard somewhere to this day. Paid around 250gbp for them. I exclusively buy all of my clothes used on ebay these days so i never get that feeling of burning my money on an overpriced fashion impulse buy

Can someone post some fits of them actually working and list some pants to wear them with? Might take them out of retirement.
