its hilarious that box logos are the fastest thing to go. just goes to show that way more than half of the people who wear supreme wear it as a status symbol and not because of any interesting or provocative design. that ballet hoodie is beautiful and its just been sitting in the store, while the box logos are at best uninteresting and repetitive and they're gone within 5 minutes.

TheClap.I did just pick up a good amount of off-white and a Pyrex hoodie from -kyle-

Agreed. Supreme has some nicely designed items, but what sells is the logo, not the design.
I'm really not into fashion and don't know what half the shit going on in these memes are, but they are definitely hilarious. I can relate them all to someone I know.

In my opinion its a lot more interesting than pictures of bikes, skis, etc. Those kind of pickup posts aren't bad by any means, but this stuff is more entertaining to me than a perpetual discussion of rockered skis.

SPskier543Plum guides, they're touring bindings that are supposedly pretty awesome.
Those are Dynafits (not quite as nice as Plums), and yes they are awesome. It makes it so that only your foot lifts off the ski when skinning (heelpiece stays on the ski). Complete game-changer as far as BC tools go. And I trust them more than Dukes on the downhill.

yeah I've never skied them and I'm sure they're just as strong as normal bindings but i would be scared shitless skiing those, especially in dicey terrain just because they look sketchy

not sketchy really. just dont spin/flip in them and you will be fine. hoji fucking dominates mountains, albeit he has em locked from here to high heaven and he is now on beasts but point still stands. tech bindings are the future of ski touring.
I made a NSer one but have no idea where I would find it again.
What kind of style is this even mocking? I get the whole supreme swag jogging pants -" high (urban) fashion" ones but I've never seen people rep that and tek shells and stuff like that.

Techwear, which also has some sub styles such as techninja (gothninja, but now waterproof)
Essentially maximising comfort, movement, performance whilst remaining presentable if a bit futuristic.
ACRONYM® is one of the brands completely devoted to this style.
Limited edition Korean Blu-Ray of "The Dreamers" (note: actually limited, around 500-1000 exist).
Someone stole my old blu-ray and this is the only way to see Eva Green's pussy at home in the highest possibly quality, uncut, non-blurred with the directors commentary.

Their purpose isn't dicey terrain. Their purpose is to be as efficient as possible going uphill. It's a compromise binding - compromise skiing performance to avoid lifting the weight of a large heifer over the course of a couple hours' skinning. Seriously, if you've toured lifting the weight of a Duke off your ski every step as opposed to, well, not, the difference is miraculous.
If you want to ski sketch as fuck stuff and have to skin for a while to get to it, or jump off of high things, you should be on a more stable binding like a frame or the Beast, or better yet use the CAST system so you're on FKS for the down.
Jury's still out on whether the Kingpin fits that mold. I've heard good things, particularly for a first effort, but we really need to wait and reflect after a season's use by a wide array of users. Even the Beast had some kinks to work out.

Totally disagree. Tech bindings aren't even that good. The problem is that they were the best option available for a while and as a result are now the standard. The future is an entirely re-vamped binding system, probably, that, whatever it ends up being, looks almost nothing like the current tech bindings (Lou Dawson always calls it "tech 2.0").
The problem is, the longer that tech is prevalent and more companies keep making pincer style tech bindings (Dynafit, Onyx, Plum, Marker, Fritschi, etc, Salo soon?) the more people commit to it. You've already got tech compatible boots, do you want to buy a whole new setup to be compatible with a new type of touring clamp? Probably not, this shit is expensive. It's market forces compelling this.
On the other hand, with the Beasts and potentially the Kingpins and the Vipec (at least in principle on the latter), tech bindings are getting better over time, and they were already reasonably functional last gen.
