Hey, so I was looking at the LTT firepole shirt (default color, adult small) and was wondering if it's cotton, polyester, or something else, and if above is true, what it is. Thx in advance!

Going to France for around a month and I'd like a new pair of "high fashion" sneakers. Looking for something white, possibly, and to give you an idea of what I'm looking for I'm considering the following, Human Race NMD Sun Glows BYW's in the white or white bristol colorways 2016 Rick Owens Tech Runners in milk White AF 1 SF highs Alexander Wang run clean or runs My budget is about 350 and some of these I can secure for that price or around it. If you're going to suggest Jordan colorways, my favorite Jordans are the 1's, 12's and 13's. I'm not the BIGGEST fan of 3's (I know kill me). At the moment I own Tubular Shadows in the duck camo colorway, Tubular Invaders in the grey duck camo colorway, Pureboost DPR's in the white colorway, Airforce 1 Special Field mids in the grey colorway and a pair of Jordan 1 Shadows are arriving shortly.

HEY HEY HEY, It's me your brother back after an almost 1 year hiatus from the forum I comeback with more interests than just computer hardware. So for my first topic in ages, I want to know if anyone in this community is into any fashion or streetwear brands for example Supreme, Adidas, Bape, etc. Also would like to know if there are any sneakerheads here and if you are mind posting some of your collection? 8)8)8)8) ily

Hello again. Reddit didn't give me any answers so I'll ask this here. I'm in a some kind of style crisis I would say. The thing is that in my school (high-school) everyone, well... not everyone but at least 60% of the men/boys wear hoodies, gray sweatpants, Nike shoes etc... and I was thinking that hell no I don't want to be like those unfashionable assh... boys. But then I thought that their outfit looks really comfy. So what I've been thinking: Would it be considered overdressing if I wore a dress shirt, black jeans, brown dress shoes (or at least similar shoes) and maybe a tie and a watch? And would it be rude to dress better than others? Do teachers like it or not? Simply is it better to be unique and dress well (a bit overdressing) or be the same and dress similarly as others and not get negative feedback from others? I would say this is a question about which you like more looks or comfort. Please tell your opinions on this one. I'm interested.

Amazon: http://geni.us/3Zoc NCIX: N/A The ZenWatch 2 provides a VERY interesting re-entry into the wearable space from ASUS... Should you buy one?

I have noticed that every second person (mostly young) I come across uses these pants: http://www.adidas.com/us/condivo-14-training-pants/F76967.html (Not sure about US or other countries but here in Finland) WHAT IS THIS!? Why do people like those pants?

Heyyy! How are you? I know this is a TECH forum, but I can't find any FASHION forum. (or then I'm too lazy to even try to find one) I'm thinking about things that I could buy... So I thought I could buy some new clothes and shoes from companies like Puma and Nike. (Branded clothing???) So do you think it is a good idea? I'm a 16 year old college,High school student (whatever you call it) and I want to "have more Swag". So could you suggest any good clothing brands and companies that I should look for? I basically know nothing about fashion or brand clothing. I have already found two really sexy pairs of shoes, so you can tell me now which one is more sexy: 1. http://us.puma.com/en_US/special/suedes 2. http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/sb-portmore-renew-skateboarding-shoe/pid-10274432/pgid-10342155 Thank you for your help. Danke schön, Kiitos, Gracias, спасибo, tack. (Showing off my personal "language library" a bit )

I would like some opinions from young people/teens/college students etc. Is it dumb to wear Over-ear headphones at public? (If they look good. (as example Sony MDR 1R)) Do I look like a complete dork/nerd if I do so? (I never see people wear over-ears in public here...)

If you had to go to walk somewhere like New York city or Hollywood or London etc. Which Over ear headphones would you pick? Simple question but hard to answer. I don't know which would I pick and that's why I ask you.

The tech world is infatuated with fashion. This is because fashion has something tech seriously wants: the ability to create and sustain demand for products that are—let’s face it—kind of useless. "We desperately need the fashion industry," proclaimed Ayse Ildeniz, VP of Intel's new devices group, in the Wall Street Journal recently. "The fashion industry understands the aesthetic sense, but also it is very much in tune with why a woman would wear something on her body." The luxury fashion world, on the other hand, has yet to warm to technology. Yes, there are designers that lend their names to wearables (for a good price, most likely) and there are fashion executives being recruited to work at the Amazons and Apples of the world (for great salaries, I'm sure). But at the biggest fashion houses in Europe, there is a general disdain for the connected future that the tech world fetishizes. "We don't like [e-commerce]. I don't care," Miuccia Prada said in 2013. "We think that, for luxury, it's not right. Personally, I’m not interested." As Bloomberg details, this is the case for many luxury brands. Some fashion OGs, like Valentino, don't even use computers. Anna Wintour famously carries a flip phone. "The problem with technology is it's a bit cold. It's a bit sharp," said Carine Roitfeld, CR Fashion BookEIC and former French Vogue chief. This aversion actually makes perfect sense. Fashion is, by its very nature, exclusive. It's about creating an identity, a brand, that is so cool that people will spend thousands and thousands of dollars to acquire a tiny piece of it. If you make that identity widely available, you risk diluting it. This delicate balance is something that the oldest fashion stalwarts have spent a hundred or more years perfecting. Consider the Fendi Bag Bug. It's a small, colorful, mink-covered charm that you can snap on a handbag for added flair (it's not available for purchase on Fendi's site, of course). It serves no purpose aside from extra adornment. Bag Bugs and Karlitos—tiny furry Karl Lagerfeld charms—have consistently sold out since being introduced in 2013, despite prices that fall between $600 and $900. They have made Fendi millions. Fendi's not trying to solve a problem or make anyone's life easier. It's just producing covetable accessories. Tech products, on the other hand, are often positioned as world-changing innovations, sweeping solutions in search of problems. As Tim Cook explains, Apple's goal for its smartwatch is to change people's lives. The company is selling a much different promise than Fendi is. The Apple Watch is "powerful technology" that's "more accessible" and "personal." Apple stresses how hyperfunctional its watch will be, though the functions that it performs won't prove revelatory to anyone who owns an iPhone, which it must be paired with. (That's right, it's a $350 accessory of an accessory—and both must becharged nightly.) The iPhone, it should be noted, is ubiquitous not because it's cool, but because smartphones are considered necessary in our modern times. As it stands, the Apple Watch is neither. A "dirty secret" of the wearables market is that at least half of consumers abandon them within months, no doubt realizing how pointless they truly are. "Right from the watch face, the Glances feature gives you real-time views of the information you check most often, like the weather, stock quotes, upcoming calendar events, and more," Apple promises. In this vision of the future, being connected to the internet at all times is not only exciting, but also mandatory. How exhausting. "Apple Watch notifications take on a whole new feel because they discreetly come right to your wrist," Apple boasts. "And they're designed to let you address or dismiss them just as subtly." Because it's less rude to stare at the screen on your wrist than the screen on your phone during lunch? Selling function isn't something the fashion industry typically does. It sells a story, an identity, a new look. Why should you throw out all your skinny jeans and invest in flares? Because the powers that be have decided that a flared silhouette is important right now and suddenly skinny jeans just don’t feel quite right. They look dated. You don't look very cool in them. You buy the flares. It's been hilarious to witness the snippy, dismissive reactions to the Apple Watch from fashion's old guard. Jean-Clauve Biver, the president of LVMH's watches division, hasn't minced words, saying: He's not the only one criticizing. Fast Companydescribes the watch as "boring"; compared to thelaunch of the iPhone, the Apple Watch is "Samsung Galaxy Gear dipped in rose gold, the blush wine of the precious metal world." MusedAlexander Fury, fashion editor of the Independent, "I don't think Rolex [is] quaking just yet." In some ways, the Apple Watch is similar to Google Glass, another wearable once heralded as a game changer. Despite making small inroads into the fashion community—perhaps the apex of which involved models sporting Glass on the Diane von Furstenberg runway—the accessory was never widely adopted. Glass wasn't sexy and it wasn't necessary. (It also made people look like tools, hence the term "Glasshole.") As Umair Haque argues for the Harvard Business Review, Glass didn't succeed because it "just wasn’t cool." "It's not that Google Glass looked absurd—people wear silly fashions every day," he writes. This is true, and it could also be true for the Apple Watch, though the company has worked hard to try to avoid Google's mistakes. Apple has hired fashion world talents, poaching top execs from Saint Laurent, Gap, Burberry, and Tag Heuer. It arranged for a high-profile preview at noted Paris boutique Colette attended by Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour. It got the watch on the cover of Vogue China. According to leaked documents, the company's recruiting salespeople with fashion backgrounds to staff Apple stores. But as The Verge reports, it was Apple fanboys who lined up to view the watch at Colette, not the fashion cognoscenti. As one Colette shopper told the site, It's pure arrogance for Silicon Valley to imagine that it can make wearables cool by hiring a few fashion people, putting the product on a runway, or throwing money at "collaborations" with brands. This is a new game they're trying to play, one with different rules. The rollout of the Apple Watch would look much different if it were orchestrated by a brand like Chanel. Instead of being released at $350, it would hit stores with a price tag in the thousands. Consumers would clamor to get their hands on one, only to be stymied by limited runs, which would further stoke desire. Only after a few years of artificial scarcity would it enjoy wider release. Obnoxious? Maybe. But to do cool right, brands have to jettison tech world values like accessibility and utopianism. Cool isn't fair. You can't have it both ways.

Only 1947 of the Lamborghini 88 Tauri will be made, each selling for $6000. It packs a top of the line, sorta, Snapdragon 801, 3GB of ram, 64gb storage, 5" 1080p screen, and a 3400mAh battery. This phone looks so hideous LOL Edit: Also packs a 20MP camera Source: http://www.gsmarena.com/lamborghini_tauri_88_smartphone_runs_android_packs_20mp_camera-news-10422.php http://www.engadget.com/2014/12/09/lamborghini-88-tauri/?ncid=rss_truncated
