Purchase #19: Gatsby Moving Rubber

Saturday, July 10th, 2010

So I finally get my little hands on the elusive Japanese hair gel by Gatsby. I've heard so much about their products and have had a sneaky scoop out of a friends product so I've been keen to try something different over the over priced Kevin Murphy and American Crew stuff we get here in Australia.

$10 bucks each from eBay was a bit of a bargain compared to what I usually pay for my usual hair products. I haven't yet tried any but will edit this post once I've tried all three.

Wild Shake (The Purple one) I've read isn't meant to be as versatile as Spiky Edge, but for some reason it was the first I tried. It's also meant to be used for medium to short length hair, similar to Spiky Edge, but where it differs is that it doesn't turn your hair into pointy spikes, thus the name Spiky Edge I imagine. I suppose that it's not so good for creating a distinct point in your hair, but more so for angles and non-symmetric styles. It doesn't hold so well so wind and clothing can have a rather large impact on it's control, so make sure you use spray and put your clothes on before applying it.

Spiky Edge is next!

Sneaker Freaker Swap Meet

Sneaker Freaker Swap Meet

Ventured back to the Rose St Market on Sunday morning to inspect some of the goods at the 2nd Official SneakerFreaker Swap Meet. My god were there a lot of kicks! I took about $300 in with the intention of buying some new Max90's but got cold feet and decided to hang onto my hard earned pennies for another time.

I'm regretting it now because looking at that picture and the White Air Force Mid's for $80 in it just makes me want new shoes. Sigh!

Super Dry New Entry Jeans

Okay that's it for my spending for the time being. With my impending trip to Japan sneaking up on me I have to massively slash all my spending so that I'll be able to afford to buy at least one nice thing over there.

I can't resist I good pair of jeans though and SuperDry's 2009 catalogue is too delicious to pass up. At $170 it's pretty much madness not too.

Besides, how often do you wear jeans huh? Exactly... worth it!
