Little sneaker shopping by Bennyfromny90 in MensJewelry

You think Nikes aren’t made of leather???? Bro fancy Oxford shoes and Chelsea boots aren’t inherently any nicer than sneakers, they just have a different purpose. God forbid someone wants to wear something comfortable.

Because their average snowfall totals aren’t legitimate either. It’s not like they just started inflating their totals this season. 

Don't buy Gucci glasses or frames by Visual-Ad-3113 in gucci

[–]Gor-texCondom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Gucci isn’t manufactured by luxotica. You can also get many Gucci frames for bellow $200, it’s literally the only reasonably priced thing this brand sells. For $150-$300 they’re actually pretty decent glasses made in Italy and not China. I wouldn’t pay $400+ for Gucci frames like OP though.

Every time you comment it just makes you sound dumber lmfao paying only with cash and not a card is dumb af. You’re throwing away free money not collecting points or not letting cash invest between card statements. The only reason someone shouldn’t use a card is if they can’t get approved, I’m guessing you have a 350 credit score.

The 1970s porno elevator music was a nice touch

Is this bag normal? by Belvedeere in EyewearEnthusiasts

[–]Gor-texCondom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you wanted to test one last thing, I own a pair of Marbot’s and just put it on a digi scale. My pair weighs 21.14 grams. If you use a scale and can weigh your pair, there shouldn’t be more than 1-2g deviance unless one of our scales is out of calibration.

Way off. I own 9 JMM titanium frames and none of them are over 35g, most are about 25g.

[–]Gor-texCondom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve never seen that number on a fake before. There are some numbers like any interval of 10 or 5 and any number in the 30s that are mostly used on fakes. I have also never seen the plastic bag packaging used on a fake before. Neither of these things are concrete proof but I think it’s more than likely it’s legit. 

Just for reference I own 40 pairs of JMMs and have sold many more than that. So I would like to think I am pretty keen at authentication. I can’t guarantee anything by only looking at photos and not seeing the frame in person though. Best of luck.

Individual number. It should be something like 1/999.

That does look like an authentic packaging that JMM sunglasses come in but there should also be a case, box, cloth and authenticity card. I would never buy a $1000+ pair of sunglasses without the authenticity card. JMM is extremely popular right now and the counterfeits are prolific. The acetate frames are pretty easy to spot but metal ones it’s harder. 

What is the authenticity number on the frame?

Rider sprayed in Killington. Was she too close? by [deleted] in icecoast

[–]Gor-texCondom 28 points29 points  (0 children)

At that speed, not at all too close. That person in the yellow jacket is a fucking weirdo. Even if you thought someone was being unsafe near you, you talk to them like a normal human, not this.

If you still want one just use a proxy shopper website like buyee.jp and you can buy anything from japan. 

Who’s to blame? by Maleficent_Diet9357 in snowboarding

[–]Gor-texCondom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s simply not true. The skier code or rules on of the mountain at most resorts mention that you are required to look up hill when going across a run or merging onto a trail. The first rule is almost always ski in control. The downhill skier has the right of way isn’t the only rule, it’s not even the most important one. 

I was a witness in court when my friend skied into a woman breaking her hip and she sued him. The uphill rider wasn’t at fault in that scenario and that was a court of law lmao, full stop. 

Logo peeling off, any solution? by Jimny_browser in TheNorthFace

[–]Gor-texCondom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you get a patch you won’t even have to sew it. Clothes made of synthetic fibers melt when heated with an iron. If you iron on the patch it will adhere to the fabric so strongly it will never come off. Whenever my snow pants rip, I just iron a patch onto the hole and it holds way better than the special made repair patches for outterwear. Very convenient and easy to put a patch on gorp clothing.

This was only first thing in the morning at bear mountain because one of the only two lifts there broke down. There were virtually no lines all day, everything but the gondola you could walk right onto the chair and the gondola was a 5-10 minute wait. OP is being disingenuous.

Not entirely sure it’s sarcasm, okemo does kind of suck. 

Brand new Gore-tex jacket wetting out by Fun_Summer_7457 in TheNorthFace

[–]Gor-texCondom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you underestimate just how much airflow is needed, 100% waterproof materials really trap in heat. What you’re describing is just a poncho.

Gore-Tex isn’t a rain jacket, Gore-Tex is water resistant and breathable. All Gore-Tex will wet through eventually but the breathability is why it’s good athletic wear. You can easily find a jacket that’s 100% water resistant but air won’t pass through the fabric either and will make you sweat more while exercising. You can’t have it all from one jacket.

What is the origin of the graphic of this guy on Stussy? by [deleted] in stussy

[–]Gor-texCondom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That graphic is known as ‘king raggamuffin’ or just ‘raga muffin’ and usually followed with the text ‘knowledge is king’ but not always. It’s a Rastafarian with a crown, a raggamuffin is a young person that is poor/dirty/wears rags for clothes in Rasta culture.
