I will be in Taipei next Saturday, funnily enough, I just bought a suit and it's a bit tweed.......wasn't even intentional, needed one LAST minute and it was the only one they have off the rack in my size.

i was going to make a sarcastic remark about that's what you get for shopping in [insert name of hipster clothes shop] but then i realised i don't actually know where hipsters shop....

thanks, at least i can make the joke properly next time

*realises the likelyhood of that opportunity ever coming again is slimmer than the average present patron

ha, i did it

 

[Maccy]

Feel slightly awkward that I'm going out in Shoreditch this evening, I don't think I will fit in very well :/

A&F?

That's actually badddddd, All Saint's isn't too bad if you like it a bit darker, love their jeans but i don't think they are hip anymore.

I roast my own coffee beans and own a retro style Fuji camera. I love hoppy beers too.

No beard though. Am I safe?

I use a vintage razor too.

Balls, this isn't looking good.

You need to use it on your face

 

[robfosters]

I don’t even know what a hipster is, so it’s certainly not me.

What's a hipster?

 

[Rroff]

you also need to have a beard, a turtleneck and listen to bands nobody's ever heard of.

also just going to starbucks isn't enough, you need to have a favourite order that takes at least half an hour to describe to the attendant.

You forgot the black frame glasses - even if you don't need glasses.

I buy coffee beans for my Aeropress, have a Fuji camera, wear checked shirts to work, have a slight beard by the end of the week and work in Soho... Uh oh

To be honest, hipsters as they were called 5 years ago can pretty much describe anyone aged 25-40 in a cosmopolitan city from what I can gather. The "new" hipster is a streetwear muppet, who wears Supreme gear (or something branded BrandA/x/BrandB), massive ugly trainers, massive winter coats etc. The sort of fashion mostly seen worn by wannabe rich kids.
