J. Crew just launched a late summer collection and it is tent-wall to tent-wall GORPcore. Like, dude is literally out here in a field, leaning on a sleeping bag, wistfully staring at a Nalgene. That’s… something. Meanwhile, these trail running sneakers are one of the stand outs.
But like many new arrivals (across all brands), they seem to have one foot in the garish, “More is MORE” nonsense perpetuated by high fashion brands… yet their other foot is in the “that’s modern but also kinda retro cool” aesthetics camp.
I think it’s the lines, mix of materials, color of the sole, etc. that make them appealing? To some?
Or not?
So what are they? To you of course. Since aesthetics are subjective.
Turtles. Very GORPcore. Kid was ahead of his time.
End of summer clearances + new arrival sale reluctance = stuck between seasons.
Sunday & Monday only. Shawl collar sweaters. Quilted jackets. Lots of new fall arrivals. BRF…
Huckberry has refreshed their sale section.
But will any of it go on significant sale anytime soon? Attempted analysis of sale…
"Who are you wearing??" ... "The Sale section. All of them."
