Bought some Common Projects sneakers on Saturday, my girl bought me some tees and I got a hoodie from Aime Leon Dore. Everyrhing there except the hat had to be ordered online because they didn’t have my size in the store


On god these sneakers are comfortable as fukk and look even better on your foot. The Achilles style is a little too narrow for me but the skate variations feel like house slippers :noah::ahh:.

Whats a good pair of underwear for day to day and whats a good kind for the gym?

I don't care if I go through the gate or over the fence.

Calvin Klein and Perry Ellis for throughout the day. Can get em at Ross or Marshalls for the low.

I just use Nike compression shorts for the gym. Amazon has some good quality compression shorts for cheap too.

I may cop this hat. Goorin Bros Dean The Butcher. I didn't buy it last year when I saw it bc I didn't see too many brothas rock hats so I couldn't envision myself wearing one. I've entertained the idea a few times and bought a summer hat. This looks good.

I also got some striped shirts. This bold navy blue striped one that is a soft, light cotton great for summer. Also this linen cottin striped one which I'm sort of on the fence about. It gives me 80s/90s vibes but not necessarily in a bad way. It's just not a super versatile shirt but I could see if I paired it right it hitting perfect.

I forgot to post the other shirt I got the other day. This is cotton linen. Extremely comfortable. I'm not sure how i feel about the style though sinc it's brown and slightly on the relaxed fit side even though it should be since its linen based.

I gotta admit I've kinda gone HAM this month on my fashion purchases. Shades, shirts, belt, pocket squares, new shoes. Some of it is much needed though. Like I have a 10 year old belt that's worn out :hhh:

Also shoes. It was sparked after doing some spring cleaning and realized shyt that didn't fit me or is torn (this is mostly with socks, underwear and some pants :russ:). I put that stuff in a bag and donate it to the Goodwill and look at what my wardrobe is missing and go from there. I also opt for stuff in my wardrobe that may be of low quality and buy something of higher quality. I like polos and have a few from H&M, but they are not as well fitting and detailed as something high quality so I opt for something better quality.

Some stuff on my list I want within the next few months:

- Blazer. I may cop that light blue one I posted for the summer.
- Patterned shirts. I have some that are 6-7 years old I've worn the fukk out of and need to replace. Either that or they don't fit well or they are not my style any more. I also opt for more solid color shirts. I need to mix it up a bit.
- Shirts with a band collar. Love those.
- Navy Chinos. I should cop some ones at a reasonable price. I have big legs so that means new pants.
- Patterned Trousers. Same thing with some of my pants options. I opt for something safe/neutral. Why not mix it up with something interesting?

I may see if I can find some deals on Ebay.
