    I think sales, second hand and auctions are good for people who can't afford the designer's work they want. The collaborations are for people who care about the name and not the clothes.

      That's true.

        I think they care about the design, uu had some nice designs. But fuck that, fast fashion is an unnecessary evil.

        I'm that asshole that lifts in a Rick tank and DRKSHDW swingers. Activewear seems to me to be mostly marketing anyways except shoes.

          I'd hope fashion students have higher ambitions than that.

              I saw some girl at Starbucks yesterday around 8:45AM with a huge WANG beanie. Must have been first in line. Absolutely brutal.

                with all the shit in this thread, that's the most offensive thing you can think of? I can see someone thinking it's a bad idea because it's expensive etc, but puke-worthy?

                For the record its not my gym gear of choice but I've worn my basket shorts a few times when I didn't find my usual ones. But if someone wants to wear it, who cares... At least the clothes are getting used.

                Amazing, how? If you are talking about the sheer ones, don't they feel annoying against sweaty skin as they're tight and clingy? And do people actually wear them without layering? Not a good look imo

                  Really have to agree. I can't imagine working out in Rick, just seems kind of inhibiting and pointless. I'm not trying to impress anyone in the gym with my fashion choices; just seems a bit grandiose, really.

                    Indeed, I have to correct myself, DRKSHDW cotton ones. Any silk/viscose blend or unstable cotton would be awful.

                      FWIW, I lift at home so it's really just for my own pleasure and not to stunt on gym rats. Unstable cotton scalloped tank, I barely notice the shirt is there because it's so thin, and "miserable" swinger shorts, not restrictive in the least, even for squats. I don't sweat much when I lift, unless it's hot, in which case I just go shirtless. Really it doesn't wear out the shorts any quicker than if I bought some synthetic made in China bullshit for those 30 minutes instead, so why not?

                        Lowrey, I don't think it's a contest of posting the "most offensive" thing one can think of. It's just what the fuck. And I agree, that for me, it's what the fuck. I have a strong stomach, though, so it doesn't make me want to puke.

                          A bit of a head-scratcher for me, too.. envisioned myself getting carted off for indecent exposure before completing the first set.

                          I think I'll stick to working out in Rick from the ankles, down.

                            I hope you realize a lot of fashion students never even make it to what he's accomplished, even if they're financially secured.


                            The H&M collab was actually quite nice for what it is. I don't like any branding slapped all over the place, no matter what the name is, but to associate his last name with something else is just so fucking immature and stupid of some people.

                              which is throw-away junk, with stupid loud branding, made by people working very long hours, in dangerous factories, making almost no money.

                              fuck that talentless rich kid. he and h&m suck wang.
