- ald 550
- nb 2002r

- reebok club c (jjjjound, margiela)
- adidas forum low

some stragglers i’m still looking to cop:
- stussy af1
- cdg am 180
- cactus plant hoodies
brands i’m following this year:
- arc / veilance. might not be as unique these days with the likes of lulu dropping similarly-styled items, but still exemplary in terms of functional minimalism (along with outlier, and acw/acronym/descente if you’re $$$). arc’s days could be numbered though…
- carhartt wip / 3sixteen / stussy / noongoons: work! wear!
- norse projects / acne studios / theory: minimalist casual
- uniqlo / everlane/ italic / muji: for elite basics
- somar / vuja de: emerging
