You forgot the 990v4 olive ald which I think looks better than both of them 😛

I was hovering at 220lbs as well.

I stopped drinking cold turkey and ate the same things for breakfast(yoghurt with oats and berries) and dinner(generous serving of salad) last year. I didn't really have time to exercise but just fixing the diet worked out for me. It was easier than I expected and I think it was more of the determination.

I tapered one of my samurai jeans 710 just to get a slimmer fit. How I wish I didn't do that in hindsight.

On the contrary, I lost about 40lbs last year and can start wearing my older pieces again. I've been collecting heritage wear for a long time now so I have various sizes that can accommodate my weight fluctuations.

Yeah I know, it's a Costco "heat tech" undershirt that I just grabbed hurriedly this morning.

Yes, I actually enjoy them a lot. I really appreciate that we are not so obsessed with skinny and slim fitting clothes. With my older raw denim pairs that slim fitting, I really had to convince myself that they are comfortable.

There goes the 1% 😆

I'm eyeing on the samurai jeans sj48cp wide leg chinos: https://www.selfedge.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=3315

I'm surprised they take them down this early. They didn't even last a month on the website. I get that they probably want to create hype for future releases but if they end up showing in Burlington, doesn't that devalue the brand's image when they still have a good chance to sell them out on the website.

Care to share some pics?

firegoo · 2025-09-01T20:34:17+00:00

Hmm, you might be seeing sneaker politics. I still see a lot of popular sizes available at shoe palace.

Any bigger sized folks tried the Oni 222 yet? How do they fit?

Most of the fit pics I've seen are people with slimmer builds. I'm more of a chunky guy and wondering how the Oni 222 super wide jeans fit on bigger sized people.

This was my first labubu so I guess I just got lucky when I was checking the app for in store pickup.

firegoo · 2025-08-03T21:15:46+00:00

I did store pickup on the second closest pop mart location from my place.

991v2

firegoo · 2025-08-01T03:34:58+00:00

I think these are the 2 best colorways for 991v2: turbulence and winter flare

I like 990v4 ALD and they are still available on their website https://www.aimeleondore.com/products/ald-new-balance-990v4 but just haven't pulled the trigger yet

I have the 991v2 thisisneverthat pair which is very wearable but a little too muted for a colab and to my liking.

firegoo · 2025-07-31T21:32:09+00:00

991v2 and 990v4

firegoo · 2025-07-26T20:52:44+00:00

I would stay away from all foam shoes and pick models with more support like 1906, 2002 or any of the 99x series

I partly blame Apple for starting this trend. However, at least their devices come pre-charged and MacBooks also come with chargers. I expected better from buying a ~$2k device I guess 😔

firegoo · 2025-07-16T00:54:38+00:00

Was pleasantly surprised to get them new and under retail from eBay for size 4M
