Official Tissue…

Monday, May 14th, 2012

When we posted the Tibetan Lifestyle drop a week ago one of the commenters said that the pieces weren’t up to par. I’m not sure who the commenter is but they don’t seem like someone familiar with the Lifestyle at all or at least why we do this thing in the first place.

I’m not saying that you cats who post links in the comments don’t have it going on like that, but I take most comments with a grain of salt. I don’t see anyone on the internets doing it for the lifestyle other than the people I have talked about on this page. Mostly everyone else are voyeurs and poseurs.

No shots to anyone try’na build their archive up either. This shit has taken up nearl,y 3/4ths of my life and ALL of my money. You could never afford to be as fly as me because I can’t even afford to be as fly as me. LOL. So when these Polo pieces arrived I was more than pleasantly satisfied to see that money was well spent.

The aviator jacket is HARDBODY. I thought I only had a dragon print on one sleeve. Nah party people it was on both sides.

The image and insignia on the back of the jacket is mean as fux. If this jacket was leather it would easily have cost a stack or better. The details on this piece are so on point.

The dragon scarf was my little gift to myself. Fat guys like myself are relegated to rocking graphic scarves as our favorite pieces now that we’ve grown to big for sweaters and knits. This scarf is the size of a blanket and the knitwork is so light and silky smooth I’m mad I didn’t buy another to put on ice.

Polo Ralph Lauren is far from cheap, but if you have the means to treat yourself for all the hard work you do I suggest you copp either of these I.T.’s before they are gone for good.

Never Believing The #Hype…

The streets of NYC were alive for an anticipated Air Jordan midnight release. The Air Jordan 4 retro ‘Cavs’ ‘Metropolitans’ dropped to another level of hypebeasting for synthetic rubbers and leather materials.

I was there hypebeasting.

Or so I thought…

(3) How well you “Rocked” your kicks.

Grand Prize for the winner includes the coveted FTYA Trophy, NEW SNEAKERS, GIFT CERTIFICATES, CLOTHES, AND OF COURSE BRAGGING RIGHTS!
