    got a really cool 3 layer shirt from the archive for xmas, i was angling for another rick double layer, but this blows it away in fit and comfort and the cut. the reversible side is a wintergreen color which does not exist in my wardrobe. always nice to add a new color...i'll post up later

      wintergreen counts as green in the what to wear challenge...

            i almost got that hoodie but instead went with the gimp hoodie at the nice price of 250. i never realized why that hoodie is so great. the zipper around the hood is incredibly sexy and frames your head in late 70's punk glory

            i did met tangerine in there which was funny because we kept staring at each others clothes and then said SZ?

            and i believe i caught a rare sighting of the elusive etruscan as he dashed in and dashed out.

              who carries volga volga nowadays besides em... cannot seem to find anyone on the web...

              beautiful stuff... but kinda reminds me of the once extremely popular and extremely expensive brand called voyage from the 90's...

                      good to hear about the new outpost, word on the street is that volga volga and augusta are doing well in this location, especially during sale season.

                        I didn't know AB carries Volga Volga. That store just keeps on puzzling.

                          They don't buy tons of pieces...Still, they carry everything: Backlash, RO, Belstaff, Kohzo, ElfCraft, Julius, YY, Y's mandarina, Jas MB, Rust, Alberto Fasciani, Jipepe, Duchamp, BWL, Icho, Gustavolins, European Culture, Jippijappa, etc.

                          In order to get a real feel for the store, you have to visit and ask for help. John and Matt and the new girl are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the inventory.

                            Yes, but I don't like to ask for help, therefore I don't like the store. Everything is cramped and impossible to browse.

                              I was that way too (and how I felt about the old A on Crosby)...until I really comfortable in store, I cannot be bothered with SAs. AB is different. Still, I am not trying to preach to the unconverted. Everyone has their own way of encountering the goods.
