Speak up now.

If it's not covered by one of those other categories, you should probably talk about it here. Be nice.

I totally agree with Jay on the Femme Fetiche shoes. They are more expensive, but they are superior quality. I have a pair of red patent leather pumps I bought from Jay in 1997, and the leather will wear out before the shoe will. They have a steel rod in the heel AND a reinforced shank. I'm wet just thinking about them.

I would like to see hairpieces, also. And pleeeezz, give me somewhere to buy over the top tacky animal print stuff. I want pink and lime green leopard, purple and turquoise zebra! Huge platform shoes! Anything large and faux fur!

Am I bordering on becoming a furry? I'm scarin' myself a little here...

How about something for the Cyber Goth. Maybe be some silver pants or a futuristic belt. That would be cool. 8-)

Sadly, BUG by Craig Morrison is no longer available. They ceased production last spring, so all that's available is already out there. Technokitty still has some, and last I checked so did eyespyeclectics. My A4 filecase came from eyespy. We got it last May, right after the announcement that there wouldn't be anymore BUG.

The last I checked the Craig Morrison website they still had the Spike Rucksack, and the Millennium Pouch clutches.


So have you guys found a location?

I recommended the interior of my pants.

That idea was turned down.

If you're going to use locally made items, here's a few people you could contact:

Jason, Smoky Mtn. Glassmasters - Custom hemp jewelry
Caiolte - Custom clothing, mostly hippy dresses
Lucy - sells custom clothes on eBay
Myself - Jewelry
Sara (Sati Chaos) - Crocheted hats & scarves

There's also a couple who make quality fetish items I can introduce you to...

sinful_fetish wrote:~Fake Hair, Falls, dreads, etc


I agree with that one too. Along with some hair accessories that are more adult and higher quality. My hair is two and a half feet long. I want to do something interesting with it, and my idea of interesting is not over-priced plastic hair clips with skulls and anarchy symbols on them. :roll:

I would loooooove for ya'll to carry some stuff from this store: http://www.sinistercandy.com

Some *quality* bondage pants would also be nice. I've only found one pair I've ever liked at Hot Topic. And most of the ones on ebay are from there (or else I can't find the right keyword...).

Some pretty jewelry. Once again, no plastic (or cheap fake leather) with crap glued to it.

And yah, some good men's clothing. I'm not a man, but I do notice a lack of quality clothing for them.

Boots made of real leather with sturdy heels on them. I go through cheap boots like crazy.

Thanks for allowing the input, and good luck with your store!

good shit for guys. really. fuck hot topic for the 95% mark of their shit, some of their lip service imports are ok. not much though.
lip service WILL sell wholesale to vendors, details are on their site. i suggest that.
also leather goods...
whoever mentioned vinyl records had a good idea too.

PVC, rubber, latex, vinyl, leather clothing locally would be a wet dream.
accessories for guys....
i dunno. you see where im going.
AND BOOTS! GOTH BOOTS FOR GUYS!
im sick of the girls having all the fun for that.

stuff like they have at this site:

http://www.jeannienitro.com/BoneChurch.htm

some of the outfits are absolutely breathtaking.
ideally, it would be great if you could carry stuff that looks as good (or close to it) but is more affordable

Guns... Lots of guns..
And specialty ammunition, particularly specialty .12 guage rounds, bola shot, plastic shot, etc.
And knives. And I'm not talking some gaudy LOTR ripoff aluminum machine ground pieces of crap. I'm talking about quality steel hand ground to a fine edge, and crafted with care and esthetic sense. When dealing with blades, less is definitly more. Gilding, enamelling, embedded glass beads.. all utterly foul. Give me five inches of hand-sharpened steel with a hilt crafted for use, not looks, and I'll definitly shop there. Perhaps there are some local metalworkers who know their craft well enough to realize that a fine blade is a work of art in and of itself, who would like a market for their works.

I've definitly got to add to the request for masculine clothing, and please include some that allows us bigger fellows to have a sense of style. This is in regard to both conservative coverage.. there are parts of my body noone in this world wants to see, namely all of them.. And also in regard to height. Finding ANY clothing that can fit my height is a challenge. Finding something that actually LOOKS good is so downright futile I gave up years ago. There aren't alot of us of such unusual proportions, but maybe providing a link between ourselves and local seamstresses or tailors would be a possibility. It takes more than just more material to make a garment suitable for someone large, and aside from the fairly mainstream conservative Big & Tall stores in the area, noone seems to grasp that.

I know, I wasnt suggesting the actual brand. I just thought that site provided a good visual example of the type of thing I like. My hope was that you could carry things that are similar but more affordable.

Yeah, we aren't going into the arms business...sorry...there are places that specialize in that online. There are many places to find guns around here...


As for the big and tall stuff, not sure how many big and tall men and/or women, I'm not sure how much demand there really is for that around here. In the beginning at least, buying hundreds of dollars of rare sized things isn't gonna work too well, however, with the t shirts we ordered we did get some 2x for the men....we will keep you guys in mind though.

Ok, I don't know if it's been said already, but I wanna see more punk stuff. Not that pussy Hot Topic stuff or the more goth/punk stuff. But like straight up hardcore punk. I know that's prolly not the kinda of thing you were thinking of, but I haven't seen any good stores like that since Detroit.
