    VintageGoth?

    I think they called it deathrock in the 1980's....we all wore vintage back then (though I was a punk not a deathrocker).

    L.A. Times: How Premium Denim Is Made

    Premium? You mean overpriced garbage...I agree with Blaster. Premium in my mind are brands like Levi's LVC, Rising Sun, Sugar Cane, K&TH....this other fake, distressed, whiskered to death stuff is total dog shit.

    That sweater looks great Lefty! Like a wise friend of mine said, in a year from now the mainstream will have forgotten about workwear....

    Amen! Who invented low rise jeans for men? Some sadistic person I think.

    Man, I've been looking for one for a bit now....would like an early one, but probably out of my price range.

    I think plastic cat eye buttons would look fine!

    Took the words out of my mouth...she was a piece of work. Sad to see her die that way though.

    Canvas Sports Shoes

    That sucks about the PF Flyer Ramblers...got myself a pair last year and another this year on clearance. I have some Colchesters too....they are nice looking but no where near as comfortable.

    Pomade

    Royal Crown Pomade is made by J.R. Strickland in Memphis right? They were also making B&W a number of years back and then shipping it overseas...and then back here again.

    Hair cuts

    If Murray's is making you break out, Dax will make it even worse. It contains lanolin and that is even more pore clogging than the stuff in Murray's. You have to sleep with a doo rag on your head to contain the grease!

    Wear N' Tear has been linked from Rivet Head from it's inception! Mose is a great guy!

    They were about the same ($200) at the time I bought mine...price is more on the K&TH site now with the shitty yen/dollar exchange.

    David - expensive reproduction vintage "workwear" is typically used for it's intended purpose...fashion. It's not really workwear, because it would have to be affordable and destruction ready to be so.

    Reproduction classic workwear

    Diego - I have the US Army denim trousers, US Navy denim trousers and US Navy shawl collar jacket. I have to say I like the denim on the US Navy stuff better. Not sure, but the Army stuff seems to have some synthetic material blended in?
