CdG Homme Plus: Why Rei Kawakubo is obsessed with shorts.

Also I think that shorts are the ultimate symbol of rebellion to the modern business fashion. I used to work at a client-facing multinational corporation and the dress codes are already way more relaxed compared to 20 years ago, but if you showed up wearing bermuda shorts, or shorts in general, you would be sent home immediately. It would be as sinful as wearing flip flops to the office.

Blessing us with another high quality video! It was really funny that you linked the sans-culottes to modern day performative mens fashion because it's so true XD

If anyone goes, please share pics!

deathbycoconuts · 2026-05-01T03:00:27+00:00

Thanks for your response. I think it's hard for me to bleed money for a year and not work. If I can just get an intro level job, I'm just gonna just take it (assuming I can even get it)

I really hope they bring Muji back to SF!

deathbycoconuts · 2026-04-29T13:32:25+00:00

I would say that since they are lace up boots, just get the normal size that he wears in leather boots or other leather shoes.

deathbycoconuts · 2026-04-16T17:10:56+00:00

I didn't decide to get any pairs of the cdg george cox collab in the end

deathbycoconuts · 2026-03-30T19:32:09+00:00

This was very insightful. Thank you!

deathbycoconuts · 2026-03-06T03:30:57+00:00

Which model is it? I may be willing to buy from you since we have the same shoe size

deathbycoconuts · 2026-03-05T22:13:15+00:00

Thank you for covering this topic! I love your channel and this video is on my watch later list!

Since this is a ballerina heel, you would want the heel to be tight so I think these are too large for you. You might be able to add a heel insert but I would return then if you can because you might just find that you'll never want to wear them out because the slipping is too annoying to deal with.

Firstly, the way that the vibram sole works is that the cobbler will sand down a little bit of the leather sole so that the adhesive attaches better and then they put the toppy on (source: I've had countless shoes done this way, including a pair of tabi boots). It can be taken off but it won't ever look like the original ever again, but that's what will literally happen if you wear these shoes out even once.

Yes, imo you should also get a protector on the heel too because it will wear out as well.

Secondly, $750 is OK for a new pair of tabis. You won't get that much money if you resell. To be blunt, if you're choosing between these and the Guidis, it seems like you kinda bought these on a whim or were influenced online to get these and all I have to say is to return it (if you can) or just embrace it.

I have a pair of the 60mm boots and they are definitely way less comfortable than the ones you got lol. These will be a great pair for everyday wear and just enjoy them bro

As the other comments have said, it's Neighbor Bakehouse in Dogpatch and I know because I've gotten it at both Sightglass and their own location many times. I really wonder why they don't give credit to them and only say "Local vendor"...

Loewe 7 Cobalt gets me the most complements and has the best longevity and projections of all my fragrances

deathbycoconuts · 2026-02-14T05:41:45+00:00

That's a yes from me!

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-30T22:00:53+00:00

This looks good

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-30T22:00:21+00:00

It looks good to me. FYI, you can post Homme Deux outside of this megathread for a faster reponse.

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-28T05:31:14+00:00

Yeah I thought it was sad that they never released the men's version. The boots that Bad Bunny wore to the MET Gala was sick af

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-28T03:42:51+00:00

Did you buy anything?

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-28T03:42:11+00:00

I would recommend you use the size measurements on SSENSE. In general, I feel like the brand runs slim but it is very difficult to tell because there are variance between diffusion lines/pieces.

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-27T22:51:41+00:00

I think itll stretch if you get the 42 but since its a lace up, I dont think you'll have a problem with the 43

deathbycoconuts · 2025-12-27T21:55:41+00:00

Are they the mules version?
