When your mother sees you worried about acne, she will say this is part of being a teenager. However, if you are adult experiencing acne, and testing tons of acne treatments, then you will know there is problem. It is true that acne is a problem because people dread having it. However, because acne has been around so long, science already have an answer to this problem. Acne treatment products are now widely available. Therefore, you do not need to experience feeling of self-pity if you see acne in your face, acne treatment products will help you get rid of them.<BR/>There is an <A HREF="http://www.skinmed.co.uk/clearskin/candida-questionnaire.html" REL="nofollow">zit questionnaire</A> that is helpful in diagnosing your problem and recommending a solution.<BR/>I hope that this proves to be helpful.

I have a pair, I should take some pics too.<BR/><BR/>So Cheap Monday is financially more powerful than Acne? <BR/>I hope Acne gets their act together denim-wise. <BR/>I like their clothes but never buy them because they are too expensive, 'cool' and of course, popular and common.spaceloungehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591529284866801235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22600089.post-20747430777601318252007-05-31T23:06:00.000+02:002007-05-31T23:06:00.000+02:00I completely agree that Acne to not have a descen...I completely agree that Acne to not have a descent unwashed option in the collection. It's sad concidering that the original MIC (the one with the red stithcing) is still one of my favourite pair of jeans, all time. (I'll post a pic soon..)<BR/><BR/>Sometimes brands tend to kill their darlings just for the sake of "industry of cool" instead of minding their heritage. It's as if a pair of raw denims wasn't "antwerp 6" enough to stay in Acne's collection. Real stupid decision.<BR/>Even though I have great respect for what they do, I also think they need to come down to earth and stop taking fashion (and themselves) so seriously.<BR/>Anyone who's been to CPH vision and seen the acne sales-team knows what I mean.<BR/>It's a rather tedious (and very un-modern) approach in the industry. And, it will be their downfall, should they not watch their backs.<BR/>I think I will try to persuade Cheap Monday to buy Acne and make them their bitches :-)Rippedbackpockethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08773065600698138938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22600089.post-14577967719867866112007-05-30T19:09:00.000+02:002007-05-30T19:09:00.000+02:00Thanks for a great history lesson!

I have a lot to learn.<BR/><BR/>I understand why you think Acne won't make a premium model, but there are also reasons to believe that they will.<BR/>A big thing for Acne has been their washes and modern cuts, but times are changing and other brands have catched up with their washes and cuts, and Acne currently does not have a great raw pair of jeans in their collection(in my opinion).<BR/><BR/>I think that not creating a flagship model would mean giving a walk over in the dry denim market which is steadily growing.<BR/>Also, Acne is going to release straight cut jeans made from Japanese selvedge denim, so they're kind of doing it already?<BR/>It just remains to see how well it is executed.<BR/>They're definitely going back to fuller cuts, but it remains to see how 'vintage-like' they will be.<BR/><BR/>What is it you don't like about vintage replicas, do you mean the Japanese brands or LVC or reproductions as a whole?<BR/>To me it feels like the only jeans that are actually jeans are vintage-style repros, or originals, of course.<BR/>I don't really think of low-rise, skinny cuts as jeans nowdays, they're more like pants than dungarees.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I liked your blog and I will be reading it for sure! Very interested in you collection.<BR/>I kind of agree with this:<BR/><BR/>"The only (proper) way to wear denim in style this (and coming season) is with a mid waist, drain-pipes and small turn-ups to get that high-tide length. Chucks or brogues, depending on the evenings event.<BR/>Think Thom Browne without the "silly length" and you'll do fine. (Or skinhead)<BR/>Preferrably with a cropped gingham shortsleeved shirt from band of outsiders."<BR/><BR/>I prefer buying vintage long-sleeve ginghams though :)<BR/><BR/>Is your type one jacket an original? I have type one... but it's a repro ;)<BR/><BR/>And one last thing, can you send me an email? I couldn't find yours and I'd like to ask you something.spaceloungehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591529284866801235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22600089.post-59603114744385502832007-05-22T20:50:00.000+02:002007-05-22T20:50:00.000+02:00For the record.I don't think that Acne ever had (o...For the record.<BR/><BR/>I don't think that Acne ever had (or will have) the ambition of doing 5-pockets in the kind of ring spun qualitys that most vintage nerds like you (and me) would concider "true to the heritage".<BR/>When Ann Sofie back worked with Jonny in the early days she set a standard that "poor looking indigo's the shit". (Anyone who knows her work also knows her love for "ugly" and "cheap" fabrics in general)<BR/>She consistantly refused to work with ring/ring fabrics and rather turned to the open end yarn options everyone else rejected as fucking horrible.<BR/>"Let Diesel do the Levi rip-offs, I'm not touching it" was her words at the time. Referring to the "Old Glory" line. <BR/>By the time Richard Hutchinson joined the design team at Acne (who shared the same love for the same crappy denim) the "Acne look" was already established.<BR/>As an avid collector of vintage denim for more than 13 years, I also appreciate the cheap 80's look you get after wearing and washing.<BR/>Check out any pair of 501's (US production) from the mid 80's and you'll see the same quality.<BR/>I think it's important to understand the criterias behind the fabrics to fully apreciate the look.<BR/><BR/>On a side note:<BR/>All these vintage replicas are complete bullshit if you ask me. It feels refreshing that a brand like Acne stay faaar away from trying to do vintage stereotype denim (I have a 506 XX Type one jacket in the bookshelf, so I grant myself the right to be somewhat conservative..)<BR/><BR/>Love the blog, keep that indigo pumpin in your veins!Rippedbackpockethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08773065600698138938noreply@blogger.com
