Outfit Architecture…

Saturday, November 17th, 2012

I haven’t been too motiv8d to post Outfit Architecture drops because I thought it was getting boring. But when the homey Meyhem Lauren graciously allowed me to preview some of his upcoming work and he namechecked Outfit Architecture my whole demeanor switched up. Thanks Meyhem.

I’m in these streets try’na copp the Air Jordan Retro IX ‘Olive’ this weekend and this is my ‘fit. I popped tags on the Polo RL Millrose varsity jacket. I love this shit for all its inherent swag. You couldn’t tell me I wasn’t in the Olympics when I put this I.T. on. Or at least at the Millrose Games at the Armory.

I figured I should break down the components of the outfit that stand out to me and helped push my attitude to 1000. We gonna do the drafting of this emotional outfit from head to toe…

My fitted spot is Poleberg out in Queens. They ain’t gonna sell you a cap as cheap as they would to me personally, but if you mention my name they will cut you a disco.

Big shouts to Bobby Fresh for the tee and all the joints he produces to rock with your favorite sneakers. Get fresh, or get left

These are the bands that make me dance. SneakerTubeTV has the red, white and blue 3-pack and the bonus is that the clear white joint actually glows in the dark. Swerve.

There is nothing more important to your building than your footings. That is your foundation. You already KNOW how the kid feels about ‘Detroit Pistons’ retro 6s. And there you have it.

Cranberry Swag Lifestyle…

Friday, November 16th, 2012

In another week you are gonna be visiting your fam and eating that tryptophan turkey with the cranberry sawse. I wish everybody has a safe holiday with their family and friends.

I’m still putting I.T.’s on my holiday wish list hoping that R.L. has one of those everlasting online sales for Black Friday.

Navajo print hoodie since I have the socks to match this

I need another ‘USA’ themed I.T. like I need a whole in my brain but I like the colorblocking on this rugby enough to add it to the archives

I liked the blue of this piece and the details at the wrist and shoulder yoke. R.L. seems to be O.D.’ing with all these nationalistic rugby jerseys especially since these don’t even represent the sovereign colors of Spain. Kanye shrugs tho’ since I will be having international swag

Several of these pilot bombers have been issued over the last few years. I fux with the coyote fur collar on the older versions. I think R.L. newest vibe isn’t to use actual fur.

A Hunting We Will Go…

Tuesday, November 13th, 2012

It’s that time to put your holiday sweaters on my Lifestylers. This is the time of year that tweeds and brushed suedes get put on the frontlines of fashion.

Along with the pre-requisite corduroy pants I’m pulling out some of my favorite lambswool knits.

The details on this series of sweaters was fantastic.

Big up to the Lifestylers who put me on to the sales going down in the PRL socks section. The hunting dogs would appreciate this swag.
