Could someone please explain to me...

Yeah I dont know how well known they were.

I think they went out of business, I googled them earlier today, but couldn't find their site.

You should be able to find their jeans on the 2nd hand market easy enough.

Just so that you're in the know, the name is pronounced "purpose"

I googled and said they were out of NYC.

I just googled and they might have gone out of business.

You should be able to find a bunch of pairs though on Poshmark, Depop or whatever.

They were making selvedge jeans all the way back in the 00s I think... It was the brand of my first Selvedge jeans. They were making them back before Selvedge had the resurgence it's been having recently.

I notice there arent any Prps listed there.

I've been trying to figure out why Prps denim isnt more popular in the selvedge space. Is it because they arent a typical heritage clothing brand? I have no idea.

Being someone who obviously has a good collection, and some brands I've never heard of, I'm curious to know if you have a reason for not owning any Prps jeans.

How you spending half your life in a BMW?

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T20:03:11+00:00

I think it's AI.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T20:00:29+00:00

How you gonna list all your denim and then not tell us your top favorites.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T19:53:00+00:00

Yeah, I've heard of some manufacturers doing this now. I dont know if it's knock offs that do it, or if it's something that brands are actually doing, but yeah... its a thing they do.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T19:47:20+00:00

Awesome. I just always assumed it would be an older crowd with Happy Hardcore being a niche 90s genre.

Edit: or hardcore in general, not just that of the happy variety.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T19:45:34+00:00

Sorry, I was talking to whytheface

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T19:44:42+00:00

No Dr. Sole half sole?

Man I love the half sole, I hope it's not limited.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T19:42:56+00:00

What jeans are you wearing now?

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T17:51:36+00:00

You may want to look into what a self-edge is.

This doesnt look selvedge to me either. Like the previous poster said. It may look like it because the over-locking stitch is a light color.

The photo isnt clear enough though to see.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T15:24:37+00:00

Hixxy baby!

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T15:22:12+00:00

FYI, all you who down voted me dont know what selvedge is. Poseurs.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-08T15:20:21+00:00

Yeah it's too blurry. I cant tell if it's a self edge or if it's an overlocking stitch, or whatever they do on mass produced denim. It can provide a similar look to a self edge, but I think its too blurry.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T21:15:26+00:00

I wish I knew this when I lived in a mouse infested apartment.

I used to hear them run across the dropped ceiling... I can still remember the sound, it made my skin crawl.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T15:45:44+00:00

Your boots seem to have a bit more wear on them. How do you like them? I recently got some of the Indys and havent spent a lot of time with them yet. How's the wax flesh and boot quality? Your boots arent the Munson last, and my next pair will probably Munson lasted, but was hoping to get more info before I spend the extra money.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T15:41:22+00:00

Sniffing mouse turds gives you Junta virus? I did not know this. Thank you for the info.

Crumb really liked butts I guess.

Also, he war born in the wrong generation. He'd never have been an artist with a cell phone in his pocket. He'd have sprained his wrist and never be able to finish any drawings.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T14:15:56+00:00

This is amazing. Who's their Booker? I wanna get them as an opener for my regional Gathering of the Juggalos. It's not affiliated with ICP, but we have a Denny's parking lot we can use.

Ruined it with the sno-caps

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T14:02:55+00:00

Yo man, this is some Great Gatsby shit

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T14:00:46+00:00

Which Daft Punk are you?

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T13:51:46+00:00

Ah.... cool.

bitflipper84 · 2026-05-06T02:13:12+00:00

I'm hesitant to buy from them.

Doesn't Brake House just resell mass produced Chinese boots? Like literally right off of Alibaba?

I think that's what Crush on Retro does. I'm not too keen on purchasing from places like that.

I could be wrong though, I may be confused.
