[HunterGatherer]

stephen sprouse collection is def going to be sought after. And that skateboard and trunk is the shizz

[decisive]

that skate board/case is mainey as fuck.

[Diamond]

Pretty tight.

[Brain]

i wonder if you bought the fucking skateboard and actually ride it, then break it, if you could take it back to the store to get it fixed, like you can with everything else, haha :)

[dinoXSKETCHPAD]

You'd have to be ridiculously rich and careless to even skate it down the driveway...it's $8250. I love that monogram box.

[decisive]

Not really a fan of monogram. Damier or nothin.

[bdotwells]

LV is going downhill

[Brain]

i'd go and skate it with my what the dunks, haha :D

[ceehjayem]

Anyone have the brown Raymundos for sale? PM me please.

[Black Chanler]

Im an LV noob, whats the cheapest shit they got? >:(

[miz818]

keychain lol.

[line-one]

not even keychains ive seen key chains more expensive than some wallets.
I wish they had more new stuff. The sprouse collection was cool but not anything amazing. for a day I was seriously concidering getting the skate board and trunk since i just got a ig check form insurance. I was just about to call and find out what i had to do to get it but then i realised how stupid it would be there would be no way i would ever ride it. The trunk is cool though i would get one if you could get it seperate

[Fest]

Yeah some keychains run $350+

i think some wallets and smaller coin purses are some they're lesser priced items

but even so are very expensive

[Joe_]

[justsomedude]

[Brain]

[ekREV]

im thinkin about picking up a damier print belt in brown.

[justsomedude]

damn....

the graphite one goes for $500+

[ekREV]

[line-one]

[justsomedude]

http://s7d5.scene7.com/is/image/eLuxury/12092715_?$large$&scale=2

i just went to the LV store today and they said that they will be releasing a regular brown version of this belt. should be about feb or march

it is reversible and the belt buckle is brown also.

$570 +tax

[justsomedude]

man, after spending $700 on the evidence's, i told myself id stop buying expensive ass shit. damn you louis

believe me, in a month or two you will be ready to buy some new shit. was the same with me when i bought the evidence :)

[justsomedude]

hhaa

im gonna go window shopping at LV now.

[mrh]

^^its mainly the trunk that comes with it

[justsomedude]

dang...the sprouse collection is sick!

they got some tee's that glow in the dark n shit. $310 though.....

they got some ugly ass shoes too.

[Subculture]

Copped myself some Louis jeans as a late birthday gift cause no one buys you anything good when you get old like me. They are stupid expensive at about 620 when taxe was included...but I wanted em...so I got em.. They where pretty straight legged but i got em tapered and hemmed to fit how I want to and me like allot. I'll post pics as soon as i can find my god damn camera.

[ekREV]

^^nice...

[Subculture]

Damn, I can't find my camera. I might have let someone borrow it. I'll take pics though.

But anyway...there is no sign of a LV logo at all on the jeans. "Louisn Vuitton" is wriitten in tiny print on the buttons and the back pockets simply have a line going through them in gold. The denim itself is surprsingly stdurdy and the indigo is a dark blue. And theres a slight peak of one of the designs in the monogram sticking out of one of the back pockets. Hard to explain but you'll see when i take pics.

[B2FiNiTY]

j00 loco

[ekREV]

they've been making denim for a couple years now...just dont see them around. but i know the back pocket is pretty distinguishable.

[Crea-Tive]

I'm thinking about buying myself some evidences soon

[justsomedude]

I'm thinking about buying myself some evidences soon

do it. they break necks.

[Raw Selvedge]

You should get them asap coz they could sell out fast since the new colours to be released don't look as nice.
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u271/benny_tsangr/Evidence.jpg

[ekREV]

^^those dont look too bad.

[Crea-Tive]

I gotta return my gucci slips first cuz i dont like them anymore and I'm gone just cop the black joints first,and the white joints as a graduation present to myself

[justsomedude]

black and gold evidences are the SHIT.

Wow,the red Kanye kicks are the 3rd best Louis sneakers imo(after the damier and other joint)

[DSXMCHN]

The Kanye's are no where close to the damiers but they are pretty clean. Hopefully they will come in something a little nicer then bright-ass red.....

I just bought this at the Louis Vuitton store in SoHo well worth it. But the one the seller is selling looks horrible idk if its me but the quality doesn't look there. It looks bad. The Circle looks out of place and in one of the pictures of the back it looks lumpy and ill lol... The stitching is bad looking on the back too. Don't buy it ! I took pics of mine this is how a real one should look......

[Crea-Tive]

Did they really raise the bandanna prices from 160 to 340?Or online are they just calling the bandanna's the mini scarfs now?

PARIS — Marc Jacobs and the Louis Vuitton men’s studio director Paul Helbers have some design competition this season. Kanye West, who was sitting front row at the Vuitton show, has designed a line of five LV sneakers. Only one design, above, was featured in the show — a monochromatic midtop with no frills, save for a quilted flap in the back, all the easier to tuck pants into. “The inspiration came from a jacket with a huge collar in the movie ‘Dune,’ ” West says. “Most sneakers focus on the tongue, so I wanted to do something different.” West knows whereof he speaks: he says he has no idea how many shoes he owns, but he does know that he routinely needs to send shipments off to storage. The LV-meets-Kanye kicks will be available at Louis Vuitton stores in June.

[B2FiNiTY]

wow those look like ass

[johnnysacrimon]

not feeling these at all.....

[mixtape_03]

reminds me of reeboks

[Brooklyn_718]

Yea they look clean I want to see these in person. I wonder how much they going to be.

[revs boi]

they would be useful in space

[ekREV]

im guessing the hi's gonna be around $600

[Whatyoumean?]

i was wondering if anyone had any damier azur items and if they get dirty easy? i dont want to spend hundreds of pounds just to ruin it quickly..

[ekREV]

^^^what items are you wonering about? my girl has a speedy 30 and its still in great condition. although she does take care of it cuz she doesnt wanna get it dirty. being that its light colors, you'll prolly notice the dirt, scratches, etc...on it.

[Whatyoumean?]

i was interested in the keepall 55.. they havent got it in the ebony anymore on the lv store.. its alot of money and i just didnt want to ruin it quickly :)

[B2FiNiTY]

i do agree. it'll get dirtay ez

[ekREV]

i was interested in the keepall 55.. they havent got it in the ebony anymore on the lv store.. its alot of money and i just didnt want to ruin it quickly :)

why not get the damier graphite or the regular damier print? IMO, getting the keepall in azur wont let me enjoy the bag. i'll be all worried about getting it dirty. since it is a luggage, you're gonna be putting it on the ground, carry-on in airplanes, road trips, etc...and all dirt marks will be more visible since it's a light color. the print is cool and all but if you're not too worried about all that, go for it. i plan on getting the keepall in graphite sometime this year.

[Whatyoumean?]

i do like the graphite.. it looks more classy and loads of people have the ebony damier print now, i will look into the graphite one thanks :)

and my friend asked if anyone had the wallet with coin pocket? are the wallets big or just ordinary sized?

thanks :)

[ekREV]

^^they come in diff. sizes. it would be best to go to the store and check them out. i have a couple wallets from LV and all of them are different in sizes.

The wallets with the coin slot makes the wallet too fat for my liking. I highly prefer no coin slots.

[Whatyoumean?]

thank everyone i will have to go and check a store out :)

[-dnat-]

i rock a azur damier belt and its doesnt get dirty or scracthed at all. ive been rocking it for like a month now and i low ride so i sit on my belt all the time. azur is the sickest thing in LV. and i dont think LV makes a keepall in graphite.

[ekREV]

^^a belt is different from a bag. even when i do sag my pants and sit on whatever, its still not as proned to getting dirty as a bag...especially a travel bag which you'll lay oon carpet, cement, etc...azur is nice but IMO its geared more towards the women and thats the reason why the graphite line was invented for men.


and LV does makes a keepall in graphite.
http://s7d5.scene7.com/is/image/eLuxury/12091974_?$large$&scale=2

[-dnat-]

well you would think that laying a bag down and sitting on a belt would cause pretty much the same dirtyness

[ekREV]

unless your sitting on a curb/street...then yes. but if your at a restaurant, your sitting on a somewhat clean chair and usually, i'll see girls place their bags on the ground which leads to dirt. i think im just looking too much into it. lol...

[B2FiNiTY]

girl's bags on the ground!?? CRAZY BIYATHES

oh, and i wish i could log onto skafia but it is NOT WORK SAFE lols

[Whatyoumean?]

i should just buy 6 keepalls and then i would never have to worry about my bags i would just have to worrry about food and water and how to stop other homeless people from robbing me

[tommyroks]

does anyone own the monogram shawl?

[Fest]

The wallets with the coin slot makes the wallet too fat for my liking. I highly prefer no coin slots.

i got the check book wallet cuz all i keep are cards and such very little cash if any


that way it stays thin in my back pocket

BTW can anyone tell me how the (White LV) Damier belt fits? Im a 34W but i wear all my jeans in 36W. What cm is best?

[ekREV]

i wear size 30 to 32 in jeans and my belts are sized at 80cm and i still have room for 2 notches. you may wanna go 85 or possibly 90cm.

best thing to do is go to the store and try them on. if youre not able to do that. call up an LV store and tell em your waist measurement and they'll tell you what the best size would be.

[hellah fresh]

^^ Ok will do!

[NoirRob]

I am getting rid of some LV pieces that i dont really wear anymore.

If anyone is interested in a Louis Vuitton Jeans 45 Belt size 100 CM.

I wear size 34-36 Jeans and it fits perfect.

PM me if anyone wants it.

^ any thing else for sale?

and how much for the belt

[NoirRob]

^ any thing else for sale?

and how much for the belt

i am clearing out my closet today so i will post a few more pieces.

The belt is in great condition.

Will take around $300 for it.

Retail is $535 plus tax.

yeah what you got up for bid?

[NoirRob]

^^^good deal right there. i have the same belt and its one of my favorite pieces.

what else are you selling?

im sorting through the pieces i dont really use anymore today and tomorrow.

ill put em up on here for you guys first.

I dont want to mess with Ebay. Im not trying to get rich of this shit, im just trying to not hold onto shit i dont use.

[Fest]

thats dope^

def update with some pieces

[decisive]

Put up the black graphite tie haha. I came to swoop one up at the flagship store in Las Vegas but they sold out, ended up getting the smokish gray graphite tie. Which is still dope of course.

[justsomedude]

just picked up the damier belt.....


im lovin it!

[HunterGatherer]

damn justsomedude sounds like your slowly building your Vuitton collection. Need a new pickup myself

[justsomedude]

yah, im prob. not gonna get any new stuff for a while now.

im not feelin any of the shoes. i might get a keychain or something next.

[decisive]

update us Rob!

[debs 168]

i'm trying to decide between an icare or a carryall. does anybody in this thread have both? i need like a side by side comparison shot and it'd be nice if i could get a shot of that as well as a picture of somebody carrying both bags.

i'm trying to use it as a sort of briefcase, if that makes sense. i don't want to look like a cornball carrying luggage around everyday. i know the icare is slightly smaller than the carryall but the carryall is like 300 or so dollars cheaper.

*edit*
the carryall looks more like a purse, tho. EH.

[Crea-Tive]

Well I got my evidence's in.Pics when I get time

[Distill3d]

Well I got my evidence's in.Pics when I get time

yea, im planning to cop a pair of evidence as well, but the sales associate from the LV store, said that their going to be coming out with 3 new color ways. Burgundy, Steel Grey, and White. The burgundy and steel grey should be out around march - april, and the white ones will be out for summerrr.

[ekREV]

^^ive seen pics of the white and burgundy ones...i'll have to check out the steel grey ones.

[decisive]

Def going to get me a pair of the new evidence's.

[Distill3d]

how much are they at the louis store?

[Crea-Tive]

730 after tax

[Distill3d]

thanks, its good that they only sell them at louis vuitton stores.

Cause if they started selling them to sunglass stores, they would just become really cheap. Since almost at every sunglass store, you can get 50% off lol

[HuevosRancheros]

yup I'm about to cop my pair monday.

I was about to hold off since i just got some cazal 951's for 2 bills.

fuck...............yea!

[ekREV]

^^where'd you get those cazal's for 2 bills?!?!?

[iScotty]

Only to people who have been into LV for a long time... Im actually getting pretty upset at Marc Jacobs at the moment.. He is taking a classic product and name thats been around for over a century and designing this new pop garbage! The monograms with the old school rose tattoo designs on em, the stupud wording thats done in paint, and the stores have all this on the windows now! some people may like it but for me i hate it...

[ekREV]

^^theyre just keeping up w/ the times so they can make money. it's not my cup of tea either but people like the new stuff. im more into the plain/classy looks and not so into the flashy stuff.

[UPS-N-COMIN']

i agree as well...
but you know marc jacobs has practically slave his ideas and name into everything....from low end to high end...he's a fashion slave, so he gets used accordingly.

[Brooklyn_718]

The new stuff is dope and it was only the Stephen Sprouse collection that really stepped out of the usual LV look. Marc Jacobs has been doing a good job with LV and I'm pretty sure Marc Jacobs doesn't have 100% control over what is being put out and if the people at the top of Louis Vuitton didn't want any of these looks it wouldn't have been produced. I'm sure the businessmen at Louis Vuitton know how important the brand reputation is and there were designers and other staff members before them and there will be new designers and staff members after them; so they wouldn't do anything to sabotage the brand name in any way.

[iScotty]

^ Yeah im not talking about everything thats new, im talking about the sprouse collection! Its awful and that can just make u start thinking in a different way about a brand as classic as LV... Marc is the head designer, so everything goes through him now! So he is putting his own wild and crazy designs that he would use for his line and bringing into LV! Thats just my opinion! Also ekrev money making for LV isnt an really an issue, they have been around for along time and people are still loving that classic designs!

[Distill3d]

Also ekrev money making for LV isnt an really an issue, they have been around for along time and people are still loving that classic designs!

for the stephen sprouse collection, they probably want to target a different crowd of consumers.

that is true...but like Distill3d said, they wanna target a whole new audience. just like how kanye designed his own shoe. they know that people are gonna buy it cuz kanye's name is attached to it. but all that hoopla doesnt affect my views on LV. i still think they've got the best sh*t compared to other companies.

[babyshoe]

figured I'd post up my evidences. i got carl zeiss blue coated lenses on it. I can't wear gradient lenses with out them giving me head aches.

http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z64/wsutherl/DSC_0001-4.jpg

[Brain]

i really love my evidences, but there's one thing that bugs me! everytime it take them off, i got these marks on my noose & face (between the eyes)...
anybody knows what i'm talking about? :D

8)

I wouldve chose a different lens color, but still nice nonetheless

[babyshoe]

it looks alot different in person... but yeah. I wanted the lens color to be different too :( I took them to LV store on rodeo to get tightened and the guy that fixed them said he was definitely going to get something similar done to his.

[justsomedude]

yah, the only problem i have with the evidence is that it gets loose. i dont even have a big head

[Raw Selvedge]

i really love my evidences, but there's one thing that bugs me! everytime it take them off, i got these marks on my noose & face (between the eyes)...
anybody knows what i'm talking about? :D

Yeah I get that aswell, just the 2 marks at the top of my nose where the glasses rest. I wonder if the Western version would make much of a difference because I have the Eastern version. I'm in Australia where they only stock the Eastern version and I'm Asian so I thought Eastern would be the right one for me. Anyone tried on both versions?

[iScotty]

^ It makes a difference, i didnt know that when i first tried these on when they first came out and the lady who was helping me said i needed the western not the eastern thats why they felt tight on the nose! So i went and tried on a western and it fits nicely on you face... But decided not to get em and picked up a wallet instead!

[Raw Selvedge]

They don't actually feel tight on my nose when I wear them though...I was thinking it might be coz they're kinda heavy so with them resting on your nose for a while, it would leave marks even if the bridge was wider, maybe just on a different spot on your nose perhaps? Anyone here wear Evidence for long periods without marks being left on their nose?

[babyshoe]

Yeah I get that aswell, just the 2 marks at the top of my nose where the glasses rest. I wonder if the Western version would make much of a difference because I have the Eastern version. I'm in Australia where they only stock the Eastern version and I'm Asian so I thought Eastern would be the right one for me. Anyone tried on both versions?

I've tried on both. I forget which one has the higher nose piece, but those are the ones i posted. the other ones don't fit my face at all.

[B2FiNiTY]

fing BLING

[justsomedude]

i bought the eastern pair without realizing it until i got home. i remember being pissed off because it was the LAST pair they had. however, when i went to return them, they happen to have a pair of the western on reserve too. soo the lady just switched it for me.

besides that, the westerns fit perfect on me. i love them to death. i wish they were more rare though (like the millionaires)

[Distill3d]

Im asian, and im getting the eastern fit, the western fit, sat too high on my nose, it looked wierd.

[flightchild]

same here man

[babyshoe]

doubtful.

[Brain]

yeah, i don't think so either...

damn, still trying to decide what bag to get for "everyday". don't want to get that standard messengerbag a lotta people have...
any recommendations?

btw, they reissued the evidences in white and grey now. the grey has silver accents instead of gold.

I just use a Keepall 50....its got tons of room and you dont need to buy another bag if you want one for going away on the weekends.

[ekREV]

some dude is selling the grey ones on ebay for $1500! lol...

ill have to see them in person and check them out.

[babyshoe]

as far as i know(i checked with the store on rodeo) they are sold out for awhile. The guy was telling me how they had a pretty long waiting list for the weird color evidences. IMO the color is kindof weird.

[Brain]

I just use a Keepall 50....its got tons of room and you dont need to buy another bag if you want one for going away on the weekends.

I thought it might be to big. Im trying to decide what size to get im thinkin bout 50

[DSXMCHN]

Maybe pick up a Montsouris backpack then. I think the difference between a 55 and a 50 Keepall would be marginal. Maybe if you want a Keepall thats smaller, you should go for the 45.

[babyshoe]

nope. they don't know when they will come out... or atleast thats what they told me at the LV store when I was there on thursday.

[line-one]

Maybe pick up a Montsouris backpack then. I think the difference between a 55 and a 50 Keepall would be marginal. Maybe if you want a Keepall thats smaller, you should go for the 45.

yeah i think i might just wait till i can get up to a store so I can really feel the size difference

[iScotty]

has the kanye sneaks come out yet or has it already come out?

Supposed to release sometime this month but the way its looking they might not! These, the yeazy's and Pastelle were all supposed to drop this month but havent heard or seen anything lately!

[justsomedude]

i dont really like the new colors for the evidences.

[ekREV]

i believe the kanye lv's are releasing in june...

[Mondo]

Noob question but whats the difference between the eastern and western fits on the evidences?

thanks

[iScotty]

^Wouldn't call it a noob question but its what type of nose u have, basically how the glasses sit on your nose and fit to it... Try both on before buying em if wanting to buy to them!

[Mondo]

^ahhhhThat would explain why i tried on a pair at the LV store and it fit great then went to Bloomingdales and it didnt fit so great, i didnt know their was a easter and wester fit till i started seeing it in this thread, now i gotta go back and figure out which ones which

[Brooklyn_718]

Not the greatest quality pics sadly I had the garbage camera with me but I thought I would share these. I went to the Stephen Sprouse exhibit and took these. There was a small Louis Vuitton and Stephen Sprouse section. My favorite is that duffel below with the baby blue graffiti ! Did anyone get anything from this collection ?

[Runnin_Free]

Anyone have the Louis iCare bag? or know anybody that has one?

[Dita]

did you guys know the Louis Evidence is based off the Dita Beretta which came out first in 2005?



heres a new color of the evidence

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c268/amrk47/Evidence.jpg

http://www.ditalegends.com/images/dynamic/products/colorways/large_image//8300a_beretta_mi.jpg

i think the evidence are nicer than the beretta but they should be at $700

[Distill3d]

you mean they shouldn't? or they should? becuase they are 700.

[Dita]

you mean they shouldn't? or they should? becuase they are 700.

the evidence are nicer than the berettas

they are $700 and the berettas at $225 so the evidence should be nicer

[Runnin_Free]

The Evidence does look way better

[justsomedude]

really?? the berrettas are only $225??

[Dita]

really?? the berrettas are only $225??

yea and they come in 4 diff colors


www.ditalegends.com

[justsomedude]

i cant find them online. do you guys have a link to them and the other colors??

[justsomedude]

nevermind, found them

[babyshoe]

i mean if you want to get into, marc jacobs designed the glasses which he repeated across other brands too. I'm pretty sure there is a marc by marc jacobs frame thats like 100 bucks that looks very similar. I think he designed the dita barretas too(i'm not 100% sure about that, I was talking to my buddy at osa about them).

what are the price tags on these?? 800+??

[iScotty]

[DSXMCHN]

^^^I hope so, cause the white ones are the only ones I want. Actually, I kinda want the red ones too.....

[m83]

do you guys know if every louis store will get these? or are they limited to select stores?

I heard limited to selected stores worldwide..

[rickrude]

I heard limited to selected stores worldwide..

are you serious? hmm. hopefully Canada gets it, I want to se Black ones.
600 seems reasonable if there more than that ill just go with some Common Projects.

[iScotty]

^ The shoes are supposed to range from 600-800 by style and sold at selected LV stores worldwide...

Also just heard that kanye and LV are going to be dropping these in the same sequence as the Yeazy's, dropping different styles monthly! This isnt 100% sure just heard it from a pretty legit source!

fuck hope they drop in louis vancouver

i didn't think louis vuitton had things that were exclusive to certain areas or stores. my evidences are from australia.

[Brain]

so where you guys got that from that they are only sold in selected stores? sources?
because i don't believe that. my guess is that you can get them at every store that carries shoes, bigger stores have a bigger selection and the smaller ones don't get everything but are more than glad to order what you want and hold it for you...
i mean, why would these kanye shoes be more exclusive than for example the sprouse, murakami or other artist-collections?

[HuevosRancheros]

Every LV store I've been to recently has told me they will get them in.
Alot of people thought the Stephen Sprouse was going to be sold out quick but they seem to be keeping a pretty good stock, even online. Same thing with the evidences, hella people are trying to re-sell them for maaaaad money yet they are still available online and at most shops. If they're not they will order them for you.

yeah. i don't think most people get there aren't louis vuitton exclusives. Its not like the hundreds and their rosewood collection. Sprouse is limited in the fact they will produce it only until june. If they have 10,000 customers, there will be that many. 100,000 and so on.
