Huckberry

Thanks braddah, I'm gonna get on it. I mean, it's poplin ffs

 

sell out!

 

Ah yes....surfers are now fashionistas!! No more cheap lines like Volcom, Quicksilver, bilabong, Roxy.....
Now, it's Huckberry!! Fashion for the waves of the future!!

 

A Huckberry is what you get when you don't trim your pubes. Since when is thrift shopping and dressing like a schmuck fashionable. I should start a potato sack clothing line. No actual surfer buys those duds, it's practically the same price as a new board or costa Rica plane tickets.

 

I'm pretty much a minimalist when it comes to clothing so I've got no problem spending 150-200 bucks for a pair of pants.
But it ain't from some ultra trendy surf dud shyt.
My last pair of pants cost $185.
They're from a Swedish company specializing in outdoor clothing.
Super comfortable ultra light and made to last and go the hard mile in most weather. Hot or cold.
Only pair of pants I've purchased in the last 2 years.
Not a slave to fashion. It's all about functionality.
Although OuterKnown's beach towel looks dope. Have never bought one before. I usually take en from tourists who forget them. I need a beach towel and At $70 if it's made well and built to last I might spring for it.

 

Ummm I bought some O'Neill boardies for $19.00 at D!ck's Sporting Goods.

 

Kidde, You were robbed. Go to TJ Maxx and get the same pair for $17.99.

I get all my expensive clothes from my single, well off son, either as gifts or hand-me-downs. Got a lululemon hoody for Christmas that I could live in.

 

No TJ Maxx in these here parts, son. We're lucky to have a Wal-Mart lol.

No slave to fashion. I wear Carharrt

 

"Huckberry".

This is what's wrong with surfing today

 

I get underwear and socks for Xmas. I've had the same pair of Wolverine work boots for over 12 years now. Same pair of Wolverine hunting boots for prolly 10 years. I get a pair of board shorts from my sons for my Bday every year. One pair. Three sons. Cheap little bastids. I have one shirt with buttons on it for weddings and funerals. I think I have a tie somewhere.
My spending goes to wetsuits, boots, gloves, and long underwear for working/hunting/fishing in the cold. Good long underwear is the KEY to comfort lads.

 

And WTF is poplin. Explanation prease.

 

HAHA I wear boxers until there the holes in the crotch are so big i'm free balling, then it's time for some new ones.

 

It's like cotton for the limp-wristed set

 

Speaking of socks. I have switched to a company out of Vermont named Darn Tough.
They're pricey. $15-$30 a pair depending on style.
The reason I caved in and bought them was they are garuntee for life. Wear a hole in em or the elastic wears out they'll replace them for free.
Super comfy. Ranging from dress socks to sports, skiing, hunting, hiking.

 

it's all about buying boardies in late sept/early oct from a local shop. Most will give em away for a song and a dance because once the tourists are gone, they're good as rags. I scooped up 2 nice suites last September for over 50% off. Only $uckers buy in the spring!

 

I pretty much live in the sticks, and the one surf shop we have is rarely open. And it's small. And he doesn't have clearance sales. It's a different world out here, buoys.

I bought the shorts online from D!ck's because I had a gift certificate that I used to purchase a set of swimme finnes, and had some $$$ left over so I picked up a pair of boardies that were on sale to replace my 5-year old Quiksilvers.

When you live in a rural area, you make do with what you got.

 

I obtain my wardrobe from the ocean. Y'know. The stuff that get tossed in.

 

This is glaringly obvious. ^^

I dress like the Nic Lamb wearing versace suits.
Sike I dress like a bum
Sike I dress like a LA Yo Boy surfer
For real I'm like an 80s driving El Camino mullet cutoff tshirt type

(I think I look good) I drive around with a board on my roof so you will know I surf.
It's a statement
Surfing is what my image needed

Middle age surfing crisis?
I also picked up flying handgliders and base jumping on the weekends

I know how to snowboard, I will be able to pick up surfing in 2 days

I only surf for the cardiovascular benifits and increased flexibility

This guy is selling surfing around the corner; it's the best stuff in town
