[Jack]

Throw gang. We're joined by Nina. Nina Warning. Lord Schlossman, hide your man's hydro minge.

[Lawrence]

I don't.

[Jack]

You'll understand that in about three months when it hits reels. Lawrence Lossman and myself. I'm Jack to the tits in the big shorts. James Harris. Welcome to the weekly Running the boys with today's full episode only available on.

[Lawrence]

Www.Throwingfist.Com. is that a tick tock sound?

[Jack]

You'll see it. You'll see it.

[Lawrence]

Okay.

[Jack]

It's basically the most laded out lass in I think northern England in Bea.

[Lawrence]

She's drinking V. She's like queen. Queen of. Queen of the birds.

[Jack]

Yeah, bro.

[Lawrence]

Okay.

[Jack]

Before we get into golfing with the summer house boys and Ja Rule, a bunch of new TV and movies that Lawrence has crushed and our bro poets about to flood these streets, let's get into a fit check.

[Lawrence]

Why don't you start?

[Jack]

No, come on, you start.

[Lawrence]

No, I want to hear about your take on silver runners. Dude, I can't even. Wait.

[Jack]

Oh, okay. Well, spoiler alert. Wearing jound A6. What are these even? I had these boxed up for a minute. They came out over the summer or. Sorry, over the winter. But I kept them on ice for the summer. I will say this. Even though I'm wearing them right now, even though I like them a lot, the way that they incorporate a lot of black into the colorway, I do think, and I'd like to posit that this is the last summer we rely on silver technical runners.

[Lawrence]

Rely.

[Jack]

I'm not. I'm not talking about like Wales Bonner, like all silver everything. I mean, kind of like the white silver colorways, you know that like ASICS definitely led on for the last few years. New balance as well.

[Lawrence]

Y2K sneakers.

[Jack]

Y2K runners, like technical runners. I hate calling them Y2K sneakers. Like I don't think. I'm not the Y2K rape.

[Lawrence]

Is this the last summer of silver technical runners? Because they're too prevalent and. Or they're like a style crutch or. What's your. Where's your head at? This is just me personally feet at.

[Jack]

It's just me personally speaking. Yeah. And for all the reasons that I tend to move on from something. I don't know.

[Lawrence]

So all of the above. Yeah. What model? Let me see if I can get that.

[Jack]

I don't know.

[Lawrence]

I thought that would be on the side. I like the. I like the neon.

[Jack]

Yeah. These are the. The gel Kayano 14s.

[Lawrence]

No, they're not.

[Jack]

Are they Not. I don't know, bro.

[Lawrence]

The silver.

[Jack]

You know, the. The pops of slime green.

[Lawrence]

Yeah, I like that. I like the. The pops of neon. The tennis ball.

[Jack]

Why don't you test me on a sneaker?

[Lawrence]

No, I just. No, if they know, I don't give a. About that. First of all, this is your fit check, dude. I'm just. I'm just reacting.

[Jack]

No, secondly, the GT21 6.

[Lawrence]

Yeah, yeah, that's a. I felt like. Whereas la. Maybe whatever two years ago, a year ago, the gel Kyle 14. And that's actually what John is collaborating on again. Oh, there's like two. There's like an ice. There's like an icy blue and like a black and yellow. Oh, I don't know if there's actually. There's gotta be. If it's a six, there's gotta be silver probably somewhere. Maybe they're not as prevalent as these. Yeah, I just, I. Look, I know what a gel Kayano 14 is at this point.

[Jack]

God knows what a gel Kyle.

[Lawrence]

I feel like you and I don't.

[Jack]

Test this guy on his Joe Kayano knowledge.

[Lawrence]

Yeah, exactly. I feel like we've worn those. But this model, whatever you just said, whatever.

[Jack]

USBC 2160, lightning iPod, whatever combination of.

[Lawrence]

Letters and numbers and phrases.

[Jack]

Not as bad as Alex, though.

[Lawrence]

Oh, I couldn't even.

[Jack]

Terrible names for products, Alex. Number one. Asics got to be up there just in terms of like the 123492Ks.

[Lawrence]

Yeah. I feel like Elites to rebranded at some point to like add in that combination of. I think it was a combination of addresses. Maybe it's like before he got divorced and, you know, blew up his entire family, it was like, this is our address in New York and this is our address in Milan. I don't know, something like that. But that was a. That was a tough rebrand. I guess it doesn't matter for Matthew Williams now, which we'll get into anyway. Silver sneakers. Get them in while the getting is good.

[Jack]

I'm just saying. Lawrence, I agree with you. Keep wearing your cowboy boots in the summer with jeans. With white jeans. Like a real man. Yeah. For me personally, Happy Pride silver technical runner sneakers. I realized that it's just been a crutch for me as like a. As like a summer sneaker, particularly.

[Lawrence]

Yeah. What I do love about the. The Asics, like, glow up, for lack of a better term, is that I see so many as like on the train on just like civilians. And I always think they look good. Whether it's like murdered out, whether it's silver. Crazy colors. I prefer that to like, I don't know, Yeezys, which unfortunately you still see. Because I understand not everyone can just buy new sneakers or is on Flow team or whatever. So like, you know, apologies there, but I do just like a. A six and a fucking and a. And a Nike tech, dude.

[Jack]

Yeah. Basically break the matrix just for kicks. Make them gel like a six.

[Lawrence]

The ace. The A six. A six. Tricks. No. Okay. Keep it pushing.

[Jack]

Okay. The socks are bumba socks. I will be in Drake next week, by the way, so.

[Lawrence]

Rock house.

[Jack]

I have to stop saying that. The big old.

[Lawrence]

You don't want to practice ahead of time.

[Jack]

No, I'm not going to use another ethnicities accent, you fucking idiot. You ever like, shorts are from Colbo's brand new spring summer collection.

[Lawrence]

Wagwan Colbo.

[Jack]

Sure. Huge. Huge and cozy and yo, we're gonna talk. I think we're gonna talk Dries a little bit maybe. There is a pair of Dre's big old shorts that was on Essence that kind of like looked like a big ass pair of boxers.

[Lawrence]

Like these kind of. Honestly.

[Jack]

Yes. And that was like us a year or two ago when I was still shopping on Essence and. And I got a pair and the size guide was so crazy that I think I got a A s and it said like, you know, waist size like 31. I was like, oh, I can do that. It was like a 26. I couldn't get them over my thighs. I like almost tripped and like fell into the mirror and sliced my aorta open.

[Lawrence]

Getting dressed like a three stooge. Dude.

[Jack]

I don't normally. I don't normally return things because it's just so annoying that on principle I was like, I'm returning this. Your size guide is so trash, you guys. Even though they. The Dre shorts were down to like $88 at that point, but they were like super long, kind of this like banker stripey, you know, kind of sky blue. Like, these are what you're wearing. Boxer but as shorts material. So when I saw these at Cobalt, I was like, yo, I got to get those.

[Lawrence]

Couple questions. One, is it drawstring waist?

[Jack]

Yeah, but I put up. I pulled out the drawstring.

[Lawrence]

Okay, so it's elastic waist. Is the fly functional or is it just a fake fly? Oh, no, this is a pair. Okay, cool. Normally I feel like.

[Jack]

I mean, we talked about like, I guess because you pull the hog through the fence, right?

[Lawrence]

You know, also the fence of my boxer briefs as well. That's where the we going. We're going straight through the chain link, dude.

[Jack]

Right. So functional fly. Unlike a lot of Colbo bottoms, two back pockets.

[Lawrence]

Wow. Do you love to see. You love to see the innovation, folks? I mean, listen, they probably got a lot of feedback, and they iterated on said feedback. And for that. That's called growth, dude. And we love to see that. They look. They look great. I mean, let me. Can I. You stand up. Let me see how big we're actually talking here.

[Jack]

Okay.

[Lawrence]

Oh, yeah, those are. Those are fucking big, dude. Yeah, for sure.

[Jack]

Well, the knee for show. And make sure to put SPF on the shins. The polo, because I guess there's a polo agenda, is from Lady White co. Look at that.

[Lawrence]

You were. These are the ones you were talking about.

[Jack]

This is the shirt that I've owned for eight years now. Still, I think the standard for me in terms of, like, polo, nice, like, boxy, flowy fit.

[Lawrence]

Like, I. Not that. I mean, this should be no surprise, but I'm not looking for a polo that, like, hugs my nonexistent biceps either. I like that. It's not. There's. It's just like a straight sleeve.

[Jack]

Yeah. And I like that Kind of like Desert Canyon colorway.

[Lawrence]

Mm. That is. Honestly, you should start naming colors. That's Desert Canyon, for sure. Also, here's a nice little detail. 2 button placket. 3 too much on a polo. So that's nice. Sometimes the. The more fashion you polos, they. They get crazy with the length of the placket and adding buttons, and it's like, guys, you're doing too much.

[Jack]

I know. I think we use this as a reference for something we definitely did.

[Lawrence]

I don't want to say what it is. Okay. Shout out Lady Waiko. Add back pockets. Remove buttons on plackets. Yeah, that's. That's our company line as throne.

[Jack]

Though I have been as a clothing designer, the way that Nathan Fielder's a pilot, I have noticed, like, some shirts I own, I'm like, these need an extra button. Otherwise, like, Because I'm not tucking all my tops.

[Lawrence]

You're barely tucking any tops.

[Jack]

Barely tucked any tops. Yeah, I'm tucking into my bottoms, if you know what I mean. But yeah, sometimes these shirts, they just are missing a fucking button and they're, like, flying away. The tails are crazy. And. And you're showing belly button, which you don't always want to do. You're not always on, you know, going slut mode.

[Lawrence]

Yeah. Right. When we're talking about buttons on plackets, we're talking about like you know on a polo in terms of a full button up or button down if you add buttons and you can let the wear then unbutton what they want versus removing the option by having. Yeah you know I think five button front is as low as you want to go. I believe that's our. That's. Well be careful you say because the throw shirts I believe are five but.

[Jack]

Fronts think you can go lower.

[Lawrence]

Four buttons on a shirt, bro. What is that even is that turns into a popover bro.

[Jack]

Yeah just extend the width between or the distance between each button.

[Lawrence]

You can. You can play with distance for sure.

[Jack]

And also if you're not counting the the top button like if you don't just don't have one before we move on.

[Lawrence]

Will you indulge me for one thing?

[Jack]

Yeah.

[Lawrence]

Can you pop your collar? Can I just see what it looks like? Come on bro.

[Jack]

Not an so I'm not popping my.

[Lawrence]

No just for fun right now. Let's just say no.

[Jack]

I don't even. No. I don't want.

[Lawrence]

Is it even popular? Do you your drive cleaner sew it? Yeah. Dude, you look like a bully. It's hard bro. I like it.

[Jack]

It looks beep as beep. It's gay as hell.

[Lawrence]

Thank you. I really appreciate that in the audience.

[Jack]

Yeah, you're welcome. The hat is vintage New York Yankees from Fantasy Explosion. The sunnies are vintage Versace from or no vin. Yeah, vintage Versace. Where'd I get these? 194.

[Lawrence]

No, I thought it was from. Oh yeah. Yeah you did. From the glass case.

[Jack]

Yeah.
