    Yo, I'm shook - everything is there and the prices aren't back breaking (not cheap of course but wow was expecting astronomical)

    I thought all that fred perry stuff and those cardigans would be long gone but....wow

    Looking through all this stuff I'm confused as to why they don't get discussed more (I get they're legendary but people been ravenous about Japanese style but I hear about the more accessible/affordable stuff less )

    How's the quality?

    all fresh too, yeah keep this updated please I'm all the way in

    (my bad for all the separate thoughts and questions )

    Yeah prices are decent for what it is and the history behind the brand. The collection on Mr Porter hit sale this summer and I’m pissed I didn’t go in because there were a lot of 60, 70% off. Quality I can vouch for, I bought a polo a few years back and it was great shame it doesn’t fit me anymore

    Because people don’t necessary hype it up you can get some amazing steals off Grailed and etc, due to people not caring to resell this stuff (unless you’re talking about the arcteryx collab which is on every organiclab wannabe page). So you might run into a cardigan under retail or some other hard piece. This brand hits hard with outerwear, knitwear and essentials, their collabs take care of everything outside of that

    Quick history:

    The story begins in February 1976, when founder Etsuzo S***ara opened a tiny 21-square-meter imported clothing shop called American Life Shop Beams in Tokyo's Harajuku neighbourhood. S***ara hoped the store would offer young people something completely new. The name "Beam" played on the store's ambitions: casting light on quality products from around the world, supporting others as a solid structural unit, leaving customer's with "Beaming smiles".

    Beams Plus has a great vision, it really shines in their collabs. None of their gear is really my style, but i certainly appreciate it.
