10 Things We Want But Can’t Have
Writing about other brands isn’t really our thing, and we generally avoid that kind of thing. That said, this is kind of a inner cleanse on the shit I’ll just probably never own due to missing the season, not having enough money or the item just being too limited. This was also kind of realistic and then Ed, Billy & Bobby came in, and realistic choices kind of went out the window… Note that I don’t own any of these photos.
10. Bape x Porter Camera Camo Bag - $569
This one isn’t as ridiculously priced, but it’s outside my own personal price range, realistically right now. Which makes it harder. Anything wrapped in Bape camo, more or less, I’m on board. Porter bags are absolutely delightful aswell. Anyway, this is always looking back at me from behind the glass at the Bape shop, every time I walk in, and it tugs on my soul.
9. Original Fake KAWS Karimoku Wooden Toy – $3000
Kaws is the absolute boy. Have you seen pharrell’s statue? Ludicrous. This is one is literally like a 16th of the size. Think about that.
8. Black/Solar Red Yeezy 2′s – $245 retail ($1500-$3000 on Ebay)
Literally just what a silly shoe. Such an obvious choice but I literally don’t care because it’s my list so I can do I want. I couldn’t grab a pair if I wanted to, which by default makes me want some either way.
7. Gold Leica R3 – $4,917.00 (Ebay)
I’ve always wanted a Leica, and this one is gold. So I want this one please.
6. Parra Air Max 1
Just a beautiful colourway, and the soles are brilliant. Now ebay gold, why wouldnt you want to be able to look down at these on your feet . I imagine wearing them, and looking at them, in all their deep red coloured glory, and thinking ‘yeah. everything is o.k.’
5. mastermind JAPAN x Globe-Trotter suitcase
I have a mad thing for luggage. If I was a millionaire and shit, I think I’d collect vintage luggage trunks. mastermind JAPAN are so on point its wild.
4. Comme Des Garcons x Supreme Hoodie (£200 – £450 on Ebay)
When these come out I was skint, and I know a few people who copped one, which makes it even worse, so this comes down to missing the season really, and I’m not really up for copping one for way too much money off a reseller. Bloody nice though.
3. Gold Teeth/Grills (Quality ones £4000+)
At this point I decided to ask bobby for a bit of input so here is his entry: “A few reason why I would like grills – for one people know you have money, only legit people seem to have grills you know what i mean. Number 2, what’s better than having gold, in your mouth.”
2. Jetski (Kawasaki (£14,500)
This here is our friend Billy Lumm’s entry and his reasons are: “Because uh, its like they are so much fun man. Imagine going down to a lake or something and having a little razz with your mates on a jetski” He then referenced a scene in 2 Fast 2 Furious. “It’s like a boat but more ‘out there’ man.”
1. A Louis Vuitton Coffin (Doesn’t Exist, as far I know)
Ed McRae has just walked in the door, and upon being asked what he want’s that he could never had, his instant answer to the question was this. “Buried in style.”
