The radical magazine from Australia tries to keep you chaste!
Stab magazine is the greatest thing on earth, no? The rare mixture of a consumer facing “We’re young! We’re cool!” plus no taste plus easily hurt feelings plus paranoia plus SurfStitch is pure gold.
No?
But would you like to know one better thing?
Jeans that scream, “I’m lonely and forty and live in a small town!”
And Stab in partnership with their owners at SurfStitch and no taste and easily hurt feelings and paranoia just posted its greatest piece yet. It’s Cold Out! Here’s Some Very Good Pants:
Oh don’t get me wrong. I love advertorial, truly, but let’s just read the intro:
I once spent a pleasant solo weekend in San Francisco. One night, while enjoying a pint at a poorly-lit joint in The Castro, they were playing old rock and there was an old guy sitting in the corner. He was smoking cigarettes and reading a book. I assumed he was from Berkeley.
But something about him was particularly engaging. Was it the tobacco? No. Only Kate Moss looks good while smoking. It was the pants. Straight leg, fitted, uncontrived. I knew that if I ever hoped to be as intriguing as that man reading a book, smoking cigarettes in a bar at The Castro, I would need a pair of similar trousers. Or at least something close.
And now let’s look at the trousers again but this time in action…
“I’m lonely and forty and live in a small town!” (Or a Mormon ex-presidential candidate)
I love Stab but Stab doesn’t want you to get laid.

I wonder if that ever took off in the States?
I’m gonna say no, but as I read it in my mind with an Australian accent I can’t stop laughing, whatever it is.
We did get Summer Heights High though!
How good are the kids from The BIG LEZ SHOW killing it so hard right now?
I can see it but its a little too mad hueys for me, maybe I’m just too old
The Mighty Boosh. Check it, its timeless. Old Gregg and The Crack Fox are mindblowing. The whole thing was. Shackleton and the Tundra, the Moon…
Watch it, hide your devices and immerse yourself.
Jonah from Tonga is gold. Check it.
But I have! And the J’amie one too. Fabulous.
I was sort of obsessed with it for a while but I don’t think it was that widespread.
Sooooo good.
I couldn’t possibly date could it. I hope it’s still amazing.
Your avatar is a dead giveaway! I was fanatical for a couple years there too. Says a lot about where our heads were at… I think Chas would get it
Not cultured enough
Bumbag is a brand here in the states right now. They’re packin.
Romney is get’n it! Sweat “Napoleon Dynamite” improv..
Are you sure that’s not from the J. Peterman catalog ?
“Beige is a great colour… Beige gets the job done.” They do want you to get laid – in a nursing home!
I love Noa, but his gear has been pretty intense lately.
