I was browsing Instagram when I came across this guy's profile. Beautiful collection of Schott jackets...

But then look what he did...

Yes it's true... He circumcised each and every one of his beautiful jackets...

I remember that idiocy, it's from a while ago. One of the IG clowns that's on my block list, together with the whiskey guy and that person that always looks like he's about the die from a stroke.

This is "art" installation right?

Yes and no - You can buy them like that. But if you don't want to hop around, dipped version is available, too!

Rumor has it, once you wear down the so called "drip", you can have the maker re-drip them, free of charge.

But it actually isn't as simple as that. Buyers don't have access to the maker so you have to make sure the retailer you bought the shoes from does, 'cause that's the only way you can have them re-dripped.

Shangri-la's 'Cafe racer'!? Looks like they dredged it up from the river. Their distressing process makes the jacket "more durable and strong". I wonder how that works.

I also wonder what those sheep in the last pic were thinking when this dude and his lambskin 'cafe racer' showed up in their meadow. LOL

I think 'Café Racer' was a typo, they meant 'Chiodo' most likely. Have a look at their website, on the product description of 'Chiodo' and 'Café Racer' styles and you will see what I mean.

But I am skeptical too on how the distressing would make the leather 'Durable and Strong' (with capital letters!); maybe they use some super special Dyes, that more than compensate for the Soaking, Brushing and Distressing processes...

Who tf does the Clutch Cafe panders to!? Those Lookbooks... Is looking like the most boring, most banal person in the world, that guy who never had anything to say ever in his entire life, a thing now? Is it a vibe? An aesthetic?

Who buys these shoes and says "Yep, that's me!"!?

Maybe a follow up from a kids Polo ad from the 80's: "Where are they now?"

You gotta admit though, The guy on the left is doing a fairly passable impression of young Morrissey. It appears he’s traded the bouquet of flowers in for an entire tree.

The same folks who saw this:

And said "Let me pay for that over the next 5 years"

Who is the guy about to have a stroke?
That old guy, he'd take a lot of photos of either his socks or some woodland pics with axes and he was always completely red in the face, like he'd fall over any second. It was the booze, clearly, and it was showing. I didn't see him post in over a year now, though.
