Amazingly, my post count at SuperFuture is already at 71, I still consider myself a lurker there though…

Shops I plan to hit when I’m in NYC next weekend
It sucks that SuperFuture is down at the moment, as there was a thread with a list of streetwear and denim shops already. I don’t have the NYC SuperMaps either, which sucks big time, I knew I should’ve downloaded them to my phone…
Anyway, this is basically what I’ve got planned, I only have about 4 hours to do this so I need to do it the TSP way… 🙂 Good thing they are all around SoHo.
- Supreme NYC, to pick up some tees and hoodies, I wonder if they still got the SS06 Kate Moss tee, if they did I’ll cop a few and eBay them
- BWS for tees and hoodies, I don’t think I’d buy anything from them though, way too hyped up
- Uniqlo, for regular streetwear
- APC to check out the sizing for the military-style/M65-like jacket
- Jack Spade to see if they got any loopwheeler tees and hoodies left, but most likely I will have to use a shopping service like celga or juno in Japan to get them
If I got time:
- R by 45rpm, just to see why they are worth so much
- FlightClub NYC to check out some super expensive Dunks
Here’s my attempt at using the Google Maps API, I didn’t have time to figure out how to link the above text to move/center/zoom the GMap2… 😆 btw, this doesn’t show up in NetNewsWire, and probably not other RSS readers either, so view this entry in a browser that is supported by Google Maps…
Dry denim progress
I setup my strobes to take pictures of my Zathan 70E coz I’m selling them at Honest Mall, so while the lights were setup, I took some pictures to document my dry denim projects progress. Here is the A.P.C. New Standards after 3 weeks:
Nudie RRDS since last Friday (so about 5 days of rocking), not much wear as you can see:

Turf was awesome, right next to the Caltrain station so I took the train up there. Also copped these babies, the Air Baltoro:

Ok, the wait begins again
Took me 3 weeks to get these RRDS, and I was right that W31 would stretch out a bit too much, so they are up for sale at SuperTalk now:
RRDS in W30 coming my way, slowly but surly… I guess I will rock the APC while I wait for the new RRDS… 🙂

A.P.C. New Standard
Denim Bar‘s shipping was crazy fast, I ordered them late Wed afternoon and USPS tried to deliver them last Saturday, but Sherry and I were in Carmel and missed the delivery. These NS are crazy tight right now, so far I’ve successfully buttoned one single button… I am really liking the slight tapper cut more and more…

So the project begins
My Nudie RRDS finally came in today, I ordered them from Kitchener on Feb 19 and they were shipped the following day. Swiss Post took forever, but the wait and the saving was well worth it!
I also got a pair of APC NS coming in from Mauro of The Denim Bar, they are also dry. 2 pairs of raw jeans should keep me busy for the next 2 years or so, no more denim purchase, HEH!!

Diam! These are insanely rare! $4k so far, I wonder how much they will end up going for. Single-sided tab means pre-1952.
