Randomness

[theetruscan]

I wouldnt put the and 45rpm in the same category,

LUC is more serius, more severe (albeit relaxed) and far more artisanal than 45rpm

I think his point is that 45rpm is meant to be worn in and to benefit from being worn in, and that their shit is utterly indestructible. I think the point is that, if you're paying practically ruinous prices for clothing, it helps quite a lot if the clothing is well enough made to last until you feel like it was a good purchase.

this is what I strive for, except I dont want to charge you ruinous prices

Still banking on getting married in a Zam Barrett showstopper ... either that or the Che Suit. Hoping to seal the deal with my woman in under 2 years, may God's love shine on her.

will soon pick up a needle and a thread, don't really know if I care to bother the tailor with this, atleast not when she wasn't sure she would do it nice.

... of course nicer than a sewing mediocrity like me. :)

zamb, there's already a looooot of holes ....in the second distressed layer. ;)

[lowrey]

I don't think the hole is there from the beginning, not in this form anyway. But, the construction along the seam is a bit odd, it looks thinner and more stretch then the rest of the garment.

well, I'm probably a little bit whiny.

there could just be a tiny break in the yarn that is pretty much impossible to see, but when there is movement and stretching, it starts unraveling. I noticed this when I once poked a knit with a pair of scissors, the area seemed intact at first but when I pulled it a bit I realized there was a tiny tiny break which started forming into a hole before I remembered to fix it.

the reason I'm thinking that this might be the case is because this knit has a heavily distressed finish on the other side and also the black side seems somewhat worn. I have a few luc knits, two of them cashmere which seems incredibly delicate to me, and I haven't had any similar issues with them, the other one I've had for 2-3 years. the only problem I've encountered was a tear on the neckline, but I'd say that this was my fault as I was pulling the sweater on in a rush and pulled the collar pretty agressively. I had a tailor fix this and its pretty much unoticeable.

either way, it of course sucks that this happened, while these are special and often delicate materials, they should of course withstand regular wear for a reasonable time. I hope you don't have to encounter any further surprises!

[bestial]

You might be right, didn't think about that it could've been damaged in the process of distressing the other layer.

It also might have ripped in the stitch of the side seam and thus start to rip itself further.

well, maybe it's time to let this go, it's a hole and I need to fix it somehow soon. :)

Hong Kong vs. North Korea @ 8 PM , East Asian Games Football Semi-Finals.

Go North Korea...there's nothing quite like playing something as if your life depended on it.

Just heard on TV.
Shitty photographer taking pictures for a shitty magazine.
"The clothes are beautiful when they falls straight, we need to reduce the hips".
So for him, the finality of clothes is to fall flat, not to be worn by a real body ? If that's what he thinks, he'd better take pictures of hangers.
Turn off TV.

0-0 all over it. North Korea need to clone some strikers before World Cup. It's already a good bet that they won't score single goal.

Hong Kong 5-3

you're probably right. i have no clue about hong kong's team but north korea could have some potential if they get a solid gaffer.
