Happy election day! We have a somewhat broken episode for you to mirror our somewhat broken system of government. Much love from Reed, Albert, and David as you get out to do your civic duty!
The boys return and David has two medium spicy footwear takes, Albert has a new thermal out, and Reed has a new love of denim trousers.

Albert's thermal here: https://www.knickerbocker.nyc/products/flat-knit-cotton-thermal
And David's Heddels Dyneema shoe to come!
We consider the possibility of selling out for that sweet evangelical cash. David complains about the deteriorating quality of Under Armour.
The biggest menswear flex is apparently being romantically linked with Zoe Kravitz, and Harry Styles is doing it ahead of his new album release. Also, David reveals his plans for air conditioner arbitrage.
The whole crew is back to discuss the hairstyles of Maine, J.Crew's creepy use of AI in their latest campaign, the retail experience of Ssense's flagship store, and the return of Best Made Co.
Reedless today, Albert and David explore the death of certain trends in the Trump 2 era in the end of the de minimis tariff and discuss the new pejorative archetype the "performative man".
A check in on our triumvirate Tilden fading status. How to buy old suits online. How did Vans stray so far from the light?
Did you miss us?? We've returned with discussions on shorts, slippers, and bootleg air conditioning. Enjoy!
Albert returns from his European tour with tales of watches, wonders, French workwear, Portuguese shellfish and more.
It's cold in LA, the DMV is bad, Tilden Jeans are good, free Mahmoud Khalil, 45rpm can be had for a steal on Grailed, and other red hot takes on this week's Neverrong.
Albert regales with tales of the great white north, including his most recent visit to Taco Bell! David laments the difficulty of selling used clothing online and both are bemused about what J.Crew's washed denim suit portends for the future of jeans. No Reed, sorry!
Albert's in Alaska, so Reed and David immediately take the opportunity to discuss Taco Bell. Once that's out of their system, they move on to the new Supreme lookbook, a third round of Tom Sachs Mars Yards, and the weird energy of the Palm Springs Modernism Show.
Denim fits are having a vibe shift...so are graphic tees. We discuss the aftermath of the Super Bowl halftime show and why we still unfortunately have to talk about Kanye.
Albert is heading north, very north and discusses his trip to Alaska for the Fur Trapper Rendezvous which leads Reed down a long discussion of dog sled racing and David fails to get in his Trap House joke. Also discussed the aesthetics of plant ownership, conservatives laughable association with made in USA, and what the tariff situation could mean for clothing. It's fun!
The utility of bandanas, the scourge of AI, the aesthetics of modern conservatism, and the shrinking of Albert's jeans. All are discussed intensely with the absence of Reed on this week's installment of Neverrong.
So social media is pretty much unequivocally evil, now. Albert got some good finds at Greenspan's, David lives his Japanese dream.
Welcome to our first episode of what's shaping up to be a banner year. Our trio discusses the fallout of the LA fires, Kapital's acquisition by LVMH, and how Tiktok has moved us closer to the influence of the CCP with Rednote.
Is this a real Grailed account? We don't know, but we sure can speculate. One thing we can't speculate on is this incredible piece of academia Albert dug up on early 20th century workwear from historian Sunshine Psota: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/288417219_Boss_of_the_road_Early-20th-century_consumer_selections_of_work_clothing_from_Alabama_Gates_Work_Camp_Owens_Valley_California
The Ballad of Luigi Mangione is still being written, but that doesn't stop us from weighing in. Also discuss the wares of the new heir to the Roy Denim throne, Reed's new Paraboots, and the alpaca of Uncle Purl.
It's not Black Friday but it sure feels like it the way things are flying off the shelves and the "deals" are stacking up. Albert can't get his DHL package, Reed muses on the state of loafers, David has a temporal break.
