DAMN. COOL. [[(thank you)]( It looks like something out of a video game or a Sci-Fi flick but it is reality and it just blows my measly-monkey-mind that they have got this figured out. All of it. The rocket power. The re-usable boosters. Don’t even talk to me about [landing these on barges in the middle of the ocean]( (which, admittedly, didn’t quite happen this time). Meanwhile, [if you wander over here and watch the video]( it begs the question “who are these people and where are they watching this?” But wait. Here is another take from Joe which rings very true to me: “I don’t think it’s overstating to say that just this event, and the way it was produced, with that cheering and the music and everything will, in the end, greatly benefit human kind through inspiring people. Especially kids.” And [here is a great video]( about how it came to happen. As Joe says, “I can’t believe this is real.” THE NFL HAS A PROBLEM: Yep. The Super Bowl was a damn entertaining game this year. No doubt about that. Nevertheless, [this is pretty bleak news.]( AIGHT FELLAS: [Let’s talk about your balls.Â]( THE CHIPS HIT THE FAN: [This didn’t go so well now, did it?]( NOT SO SWEET: [One more reason to step away from sugar](. I bow down to those of you who are able to avoid this stuff. I’m still struggling. PERENNIALLY RELATABLE: [[(thank you)]( THANKS OBAMA FIFA: Something tells me [Pooty Poot isn’t going to be happy]( if his World Cup turns into one of the ten plagues. But for reals, this is kind of wild. SPEAKING OF GINORMOUS SPORTING EVENTS: [The Winter Olympics is off to a shitty start.]( EQUI-FUX: [The saga continues](. At this point, maybe they should just blow up the whole crap show that is this organization. LET’S GET BACK TO THAT BITCOIN STORY SHALL WE? When this economist says you are in trouble, [you should pay attention.]( Editor’s Note: Biggest Bubble in History? [Bigger than this?]( EVERYBODY POOPS: [This is the only TED talk you need on this particular subject.]( IN DREAMS I WALK WITH YOU… [[(thank you)]( OWN GOAL OF THE WEEK: [I don’t think this is how you’re supposed to do this.]( WARNING: This lightning round brought to you by The Sadz™ | [This is complex and tragic.]( | [I found this story heartbreaking]( and I have a brittle piece of black coal for a heart so, yeah. (Although [this is a counterpoint opinion.)]( | Why is this not a bigger story? [An entire island of American citizens has been ill served by it’s leaders.]( | [This?]( Well [this is a different level of sad.]( FOLLICLY CHALLENGED: [There are some mice in Japan you need to know about.]( STFU: [These guys are just colossal butthurt wienies.]( AAAAWWWYYEAH! [[(thank you)]( Big thanks to our Enduro-racing pal and Notorious VIP contributor Eric H. for another great selection of stories. LIFEHACK OF THE WEEK: [The things smart people never say](. I will be printing this out, laminating it, and stapling it to my trousers. THE NEW NORMAL? Because Google and Facebook are eating up nearly all of the digital ad revenue, [chances are sites you visit often will be putting up a paywall in the near future](. My guess? This will seriously disrupt the online publishing world. BLOODY HELL: I think Eric might be bummed that this turned out to be…[marketing.]( SAY CHEESE: I have a thing for cameras. [Eric tracked down something special.]( And because of that, [this](. MEANWHILE, AT WHOLE FOODS: Oh. Oh wow. Oh [this does not seem good at all.]( [ONCE UPON A TIME:Â](_1999) [[(thank you)]( HEADS UP? The sky is falling. Wait, uh…ah hell. [It might as well be?]( MORE OF THIS, PLEASE: You know how I am a sucker for [stories like this](. What an experience they must have had! REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE: Just so you know, this post is graphic and such. [Joe sent this my way](. It is really fascinating to consider the evolution of how we have dealt with our dead. And, for the record, I’m certainly game. OH THAT’S NASTY: Just, you know, [so you know](. Because, ick. ARCHEOGICAL MYSTERY OF THE WEEK: [What were these Ancient Mesoamericans up to](, anyway? INCOMING! Tim Johnstone is [Dappered’s music correspondent]( as well as our resident gatherer of all things interwebs related. He doesn’t really hate people. Mostly. ff/Dappered?a=nE56WW29SRo:ZNOBlpmG2to:yIl2AUoC8zA ff/Dappered?a=nE56WW29SRo:ZNOBlpmG2to:qj6IDK7rITs ff/Dappered?a=nE56WW29SRo:ZNOBlpmG2to:gIN9vFwOqvQ [New J. Crew Factory Arrivals, Massdrop Watches, & More – The Thurs. Men’s Sales Handful](r/Dappered/~3/oXvtJhiBrKo/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email) Posted: 08 Feb 2018 07:05 AM PST Sales that deserve some attention heading into the weekend or a bit earlier. Might not be some massive once a year event, but still worth a look. Those are what make up these handfuls. Five of the better sales, one for each finger, are below, plus bonus sales if need be. Included are a few picks worth pointing out. [Allen Edmonds Shoebank: Liverpool & 5th Ave for $195]( [Allen Edmonds]( - [Factory 2nd Liverpool Chelsea Boots – $195]( ($299) - [Factory 2nd Fifth Ave. Cap Toes – $195]( ($249) Huge thanks to James W. for sending in the style tip here. Liverpool 2nds and 5th Ave 2nds for under two hundred bucks? That’s awfully good. Especially for the Liverpool chelseas. Fingers crossed yours come with hardly a blemish to em. I have a pair of Liverpool 2nds, and I lucked out on mine. Couldn’t find the defect. Remember, there’s a $10 re stocking fee if you return any factory 2nd shoes. [J. Crew Factory: Up to 50% off New Arrivals]( [J. Crew Factory]( - [Slim Flex Oxford Shirt – $34.95]( - [Slim Flex Washed Shirt – $29.50]( - [Thompson Unconstructed Linen Blazer – $99.50]( - [Cotton Shawl-Collar Cardigan Sweater – $74.50]( - [Sunwashed Garment-Dyed Polo – $29.50]( - [Cotton/Nylon Field Jacket – $89.50]( First, most of you guys know how this works. J. Crew Factory releases a bunch of new arrivals, and then we wait. Discounts aren’t usually great from the jump. So, since it’s still February and this is Spring stuff, holding off could save you some dough. And second, two observations: - Those shirts look… short, don’t they? Are they going for the untucked look here? And are they ACTUALLY shorter, or did they just use taller models? Info doesn’t say. - Good on JCF to make a cheaper version of the hugely popular [“deep water” unconstructed linen cotton blazer]( from big brother J. Crew. That’s certainly worth investigating for our upcoming best spring/summer sportcoats & blazers post. [Massdrop.: Victorinox Auto – $249.99](//massdrop.7eer.net/c/94385/252901/4148?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.massdrop.com%2Fbuy%2Fvictorinox-infantry-vintage-daydate-automatic-watch) FINAL | [Glycine Combat Sub – $379.99](//massdrop.7eer.net/c/94385/252901/4148?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.massdrop.com%2Fbuy%2Fglycine-combat-sub-watch) FINAL [Victorinox & Glycine Massdrop]( I know that most people are gonna gravitate towards the Glycine… but that price on the Victorinox is crazy. Even if you’re not a stainless steel bracelet kinda dude, and want to rip the thing off and put it on a leather strap (which it’d look dynamite on). If memory serves, last time it hit Massdrop that thing was $280. Sapphire crystal, water resistant to 100m, and it has an exhibition caseback? Not bad for $250. But, as always, it’s final sale. [DSW: 30% off Boots w/ BOOTS30]( [DSW Boots]( - [Aston Grey Leather Chukkas – $69.99]( ($99) - [Frye Jones Chukkas – $139.99]( ($199) - [Aldo Marq Chelsea – $62.99]( ($89.99) - [Aston Grey Leather Wingtip Boot – $83.99]( ($119.99) - [Aston Grey Chelsea – $76.99]( ($109.99) - [Timberland Earthkeepers 6″ Zip Boot – $111.99]( ($159.99) Some exclusions, but they don’t look like many of these brands would apply: (Excludes Birkenstock, Brooks, Converse, Keen, Nike, Rainbow, Sorel, UGG, and Under Armour products). [B.R.: 40% off $200+ w/ BRFRESH](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/division.do?cid=5343&mlink=12147468,topNavM,visnav&clink=12147468) (no BR merch exclusions) [Banana Republic](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/division.do?cid=5343&mlink=12147468,topNavM,visnav&clink=12147468) - [Slim Cotton Stretch Basketweave Blazer – $148.80](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1099930&pcid=13846&vid=1&pid=215384002) ($248) - [Two Pairs of Rapid Movement Denim – $141.60](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/search.do?searchText=%22Rapid+Movement+Denim%22) total ($236) - [Two pairs of SlimJapanese Traveler Jeans – $70.80 per](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5389&vid=1&pid=130452002) ($118 per) - [Todd & Duncan Cashmere Thermal Crew – $136.80](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1099497&pcid=13846&vid=1&pid=267339002) ($228) - [Two Pairs of Stretch Wool Dress Pants in Slim](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1090834&pcid=1090829&vid=1&pid=167317002) or [Tapered – $141.60](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1090834&pcid=1090829&vid=1&pid=167337012) ($236) A high threshold, but not a bad deal considering there’s no exclusions once you get there. And that new basketweave cotton blazer, unlined in the back too, sure looks like it has potential. More picks that should trip this threshold [can be found over here](. [BONUS: A.E. Clearance: Those Higgins Mills are still there]( [Allen Edmonds Higgins Mill Boot | Dappered.com]( - [Allen Edmonds Higgins Mill Boot in Natural or Black – $247]( ($395) Remember when I said (or wrote) “[Don’t expect these to last long](” ??? Right. Well, they’re lasting surprisingly long. Heck, there even seems to have been an additional restock of the natural CXL. So, I was loud wrong, but it’s still worth another mention in case you’re looking to invest in some really nice American Made boots. Also worth a mention: - [Huckberry]( They’ve restocked their [made in Scotland shetland shaggy sweaters](. - [Lands’ End](//www.landsend.com/shop/mens/-/N-fz6?cm_re=lec-_-global-_-glbnv-men-_-20160316-_-txt): 30% off reg. priced styles w/ FLOWER and 9237 ff/Dappered?a=oXvtJhiBrKo:3KxloQHNHwk:yIl2AUoC8zA ff/Dappered?a=oXvtJhiBrKo:3KxloQHNHwk:qj6IDK7rITs ff/Dappered?a=oXvtJhiBrKo:3KxloQHNHwk:gIN9vFwOqvQ You are subscribed to email updates from [Dappered Style Mail]().
