Hey /fa/

So I join in on the random Rick threads because I think the shits pretty cool bit I never imagined thay people actually wear it outside of the runway or fancy ninja parties

Today I saw a guy at University wearing a pair of Dunks and i was pretty surprised

So now I'm curious, how much Rick Owens so you actually own/wear /fa/
I don't own any, didn't think you guys did either

(ps this is including all the other ninja brands that I don't want to list off)

Other than that, I have 2 mainline longsleeves, one tank and two pairs of DRKSHDW jeans(one black, and one black waxed).

well i have a collarless blistered leather and a good handful of mainline longsleeves i absolutely love and pretty much live in

i have geos but i never really wear them outside of streetwear orientated outfits now because i'm model thin and i prefer the way boots fit my frame and silhouette than sneakers so i have to flip those

thats not how i feel at all though
if anything i am worse than everyone else, they all have perfectly functional lives and relationships.

mall-tier bitches everything is perfect in their lives, working retail

i learned in college and through my social interactions how fucked people are to the core.

but anyways
no, wearing clothes from low end places appear to be made like halloween costumes

you're "dressing up" like a grown adult in dockers. so i just go and buy CKC or rag&bone

those pieces don't come off as "some chinese fabric made to look like pants" and thus costume like in apperance, or appear as counterfeit pants it's hard to explain

but when i pick up and hold a pair of dockers up, they're not a pair of pants

you can wear hem like pants, they're shaped like pants but they're not pants
