jerry. im sorry, but cows are alive. their leather continues to be naturally moisturized. because its alive. not dead. u are a very stupid man, jerry.
my light tan suede desert boots are now just a warm gray. i wish i would have gotten them in leather instead because at least leather earns character from wear and tear while suede just kinda starts looking bad. [editline]7th December 2013[/editline] the most fatal blow was when i accidentally put one into a pile of charcoal sharpening residue. [editline]7th December 2013[/editline] those are slim-fit jeans, lilyo. [editline]7th December 2013[/editline] all jeans look alike from brand to brand. the only difference is the back pockets and the quality.
[QUOTE=kevlar jens;43097940][video=youtube;liZCQcHb254]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liZCQcHb254[/video][/QUOTE] any time suede and rain are together near my dad, he has to say "let us in, we're suede!" its a requirement
suede protector works sometimes on some of my shoes anyway idk about other stuff

[QUOTE=Rusty100;43098880]i want some black skinnies, might get these [url]http://www.asos.com/au/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2347910[/url][/QUOTE] I only wear black skinnies, I think they look a lot better than blue jeans and they go with everything.
rusty where do you get the money for all of those things? £65 for a pair of jeans is really expensive
Just ordered a slim fit N3-B Alpha Industries Parka, they are the company contracted to make the US military airforce parkas and I've got a surplus 1985 N2-B short parka made by Alpha, very high quality. This one is slim fit and should be perfect. [IMG]http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a345/ajackss/slimfit_zps88d53799.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE=Kero_;43101413]rusty where do you get the money for all of those things? £65 for a pair of jeans is really expensive[/QUOTE] that's not really expensive at all.
[QUOTE=notlabbet;43092962]you must be smaller than i think [/QUOTE] whenever you read rusty's posts just pitch up your voice two octaves. Also, lord, where did you get that quilted jacket you posted? I've been shopping around for one and I found one that is pretty okay on jackthreads, but I don't want to commit to anything yet.

I wonder how much it would cost me to make hoodies with the same material that supreme use. Their hoodies are soo fucking comfy and thick but I don't want to pay £138 for a hoodie lol
[QUOTE=Angoose;43111388]I wonder how much it would cost me to make hoodies with the same material that supreme use. Their hoodies are soo fucking comfy and thick but I don't want to pay £138 for a hoodie lol[/QUOTE] Probably about £30
or a lot less
have either of you ever owned a supreme hoodie? the one i had was absolutely amazing quality, and really warm.
if Supreme wasn't so hard to get here I'd definitely cop more of their stuff - all the Supreme stuff I've owned/seen have been super high quality shame it's kind of become ridiculed due to all the kids who band wagoned onto it because of Odd Future
Going off the prices available to view on Alibaba for various hooded jackets, they vary from $3-9 to produce, with the 9 dollar ones being as low as $5 when enough quantity it produced. I wouldn't imagine Supreme hoodies are any different, depending on the complexity and zippers and fabric quality I would say the most expensive it most likely could be would be $10.

Weak and thinner material. So based on that I'd probably say they cost (if I were to do it myself, not actually thinking what a massive company buys them for) I'm thinking around £25-30 a hoodie, which i'd be happy to pay for something so thick and warm.

Most companies offer the whole package from design, production and printing and most run between $8-15 for the lower quantity orders.

yeah, and they will fall apart in a week. not saying supreme is reasonably priced, but the quality is much better than that.
[QUOTE=Shark Cat;43112972]have either of you ever owned a supreme hoodie? the one i had was absolutely amazing quality, and really warm.[/QUOTE] Just because they are really warm and good quality doesn't mean the materials are expensive. You'd be very surprised. Profit margins on branded clothes, especially hypebeasts is absolutely outrageous
[QUOTE=sp00ks;43113579]yeah, and they will fall apart in a week. not saying supreme is reasonably priced, but the quality is much better than that.[/QUOTE] They get their products from the same Chinese sweatshops as everyone else is manufacturing in china. Production costs for using slightly thicker fabrics and materials is not going to significantly change the final production price. The majority of the cost is in the labor and that stays pretty constant. Quality control is something the large companies can have a tighter control on but beyond that it's not like they are not going to be magically made far superior. If you took the time and energy to get in contact with different factories, and get sample orders produced and find the quality you are looking for I am sure you could produce the same quality that Supreme produces a lot of their products at for a much cheaper cost if your MOQ was high enough and you invested enough time in the pre-production process. I know that Supreme has collaborations with companies who produce within the US or Canada, and use higher quality fabrics from time to time like Woolrich wool or CYC Fleece (Canadian), but on average their garments are produced in China anymore, and as long as you're tight on CC and have a good line of communications with the factory you can get some very nicely produced things out of China cheaply.
