So I went to Cincinnati Mills today to buy myself a wool coat. I stepped into Burlington Coat Factory like, "I'ma walk in, get the coat, and bounce." To my surprise, I spent 20 minutes looking for men's coats,but all I saw were suit jackets, slacks, and off brand t-shirts and polos. So I set myself on auto-pilot and ascended via the sliding steps. Eureka! There was a second floor with everything I was looking for.
Leather coats(pump action), nah! Down coats, it's not 6th grade anymore. I wanted the distinguished New Yorker coat. So I browsed through all the wool coats. All the ones that caught my eye were marked down from $200 to $140. Fuck that, that would be all my cash money. So I found a nice $80 London Fog coat, apparently they make nice coats. I dig it. I took it to the register and exited out the entrance. Ooh! Is that American Eagle? I went over there to see what the hype of this company was.
I step in and dude is all, "Hey, how you doin'? Can I help you find anything?" I said, "Gimme a chicken sandwich and some waffle fries...for FREE!" He started cryin', makin' a scene...ok, no. Let me run it back...
I step in and dude is all, "Hey, how you doin'? Can I help you find anything?" I thought about it and just blurted out, "Scarves...for men." He pointed me towards clearance. I never stepped in an American Eagle Outfitter before because they mainly sell Smedium and make skinny folks who wear large seem overweight...Keep in mind, I'm in clearance. So I'm looking at pullover hoodies, mainly small and medium sizes, they were going for $19.95, that was cool, if I was starving myself, I gotta eat.
I picked up a XXL, that sonbitch said $39.95...Hmm, I've spent more than that on an LRG hoodie, my problem with this piece of clothing,however, was how paper thin it was. I'm thinking, "This is the underwear of hoodies." You'd wear that thing when it's low-60 in Springtime. So I try to make my exit, dude goes, "Did you find your scarf?" I'm like, "Nah, man. None of this stuff is really my style." He goes, "Yeah, I understand, it's not for everybody."
So I leave thinking, why is it so hard for a man with style to survive in this world. First of all, not every Macy's location deals LRG, the big stores in Cincy Mills don't carry it either. They got all that expensive bullshit people buy just for the sake of saying they could afford it. You know what I'm talkin', Rocawear, House of Dereon, Crownholder, Miskeen, and all the other usual streetwears.
Let me break off into why I'm in love with Lifted Research Group. Well, sir, every knit, tee, or jean comes with the infamous brown tag with the LRG Mission Statement attached. Everytime you buy new threads from them, they have a signature smell of fresh attached.
"L-R-G is a company designed to overthrow the masses by using our influence. Our Slogan is simple, "underground inventive, overground effective." At L-R-G we want to focus on the ones that are trying to pay their rent with their passions. Think of us as a support group for the independent and underground culture."
LRG is definitely all that and a bag of chips. They're not afraid to push the boundaries of fashion and I got nothing but respect for them cats.
Back to your regularly scheduled program.
I stepped into the Bath And Body Works Outlet to get a post-X-Mas present for my mom. I purposefully stayed gruff(didn't shave) because everytime I walk in a B&BW location, they always think I'm shopping for myself. Why? I think it has to do with the fact I know a lot of the discontinued products by their names, Juniper Breeze and another that escapes me. It's the same story everytime, they always describe the scents and shit to me as if I'm gonna be bathing or coating myself with it. I'm always thinking, "Bitch, put my shit in the bag and stop asking questions!"
It's the same song, "Do you want to sign up for a membership? Would you like email notfications on sales?" It's bad enough my email always has adult friend seeker and Viagra ads in it all the time, do I really need Bath And Body Works in my shit?
So all and all...I did my thug thizzle, didn't spend too much cash, took care of business and I got some left over for a Thizzle weekend. Y'all know me, if Murdock gets $150, he goes to Exclusive Wear, cops an LRG outfit and a Cincinnati hat and calls it a day....
Kinda thought I'd share my day with you folks, bored.....
Oh, yes! I got a special woman coming to the "4 Chicks" section very soon, as soon as I get the technical info and whatnot. What do I mean? Shit, you just gotta stay tuned, Young Padawan learner....
