A style intervention, I actually winced in parts of this video

I should add that I am wearing this shirt again, today. I think I have worn it every day except two in the past week.

Mo with the umbrella, best part. Quite the fashion juxtaposition as well.

I thought it was only antiperspirant, and not deodorant, that had Mercury in it and/or gives you Alzheimer's.

What i learned from this video.
Jakob used to want to destroy the world (the whole up is down, black is white thing.)
Now he doesn't want to destroy it (Using Tom's products.)

also i like how that guy comes in, plays around with the umbrella in the background, and then ends the video with a request.
One Guy can do so much..

Don't ever give in Jakob. Think passion, not fashion.

ricky DOES dress rather nice. maybe you should take him as well when you do your "shopping trip"

good luck!

Deodorant is for suckers. The natural stuff is better.

No deodorant. Baby powder.

I like how real this is. Good stuff.

Someone who is confident enough to dress ugly in protest against fashion is a lot cooler than someone who tries to buy all the right clothes to be visually acceptable to society. Of course, having said that, some jobs require "uniforms", such as a job on TV where you are required to look styled and polished. However, in Jake's case, it doesn't seem that his career demands a certain look. In fact I think the way he chooses to dress and carry himself works in his favor.

I think it's great that you are going to help him buy some new clothes and develop a sense of style, especially because it's his choice... but I hope he will still dress "ugly" from time to time.

I get frustrated with fashion because I think people try too hard, it's superficial, it's a waste of time, as Jake mentioned. Not only that, but it's just a trick to make us spend all our money on things that really don't matter. Instead of fretting over which shoes we should get to go with our new designer jeans, we should be trying to become better humans working toward making the world a better place.
Also, I feel that people shouldn't judge a person by the clothes they wear, yet at the same time it's unavoidable. Personally, I tend to flock toward the anti-fashionistas so it turns out I'm not much different than those who would scoff at someone wearing last season's styles.

This video is just really interesting to me, and has me thinking a lot about fashion/anti-fashion and the way people view one another in the world. I'm writing far too much for a simple video.

Hey, good luck to you and Jake on your shopping expeditions! I think it will be a lot of fun. Take a camera along, and show us what he chooses :)

in his defense the very first time i met Jakob was in a shower and i've never thought he smelled bad.

stick with the natural stuff, jake. i think that you should do what you want, and let other people deal with it. i feel like being secure and content with yourself makes fashion obsolete. it's time we all got over it and moved on. what some call tacky, others say is fun. this years fashion blunders will be way hip at some point in the future. keeping up with the times is pointless, even dull.

I haven't physically liked anything in a really long time - this pulled me out.

i like the way he dresses!

and washing clothes is totally overrated.
altho i do recommend washing boxers... ive been freeballin all week cause washing clothes is for losers... and all my boxers smell...

Yeah that shirt is really bad. It just kinda looks like he stole it from some homeless man on his way to work.

This is too funny. 3 shirts? I have a drawer full of shirts that have now become my wife's shirts to wear around the house. I'll be updating this springs wardrobe with BustedTee's :)

back in high school i had a major crush on this punk girl. one day she came to my chem class dressed in nothing but a plastic garbage bag. finally the teacher asked her why she would wear something like that. she said "because i know it bothers people like you." rock-n-roll.

1. It's actually aluminum and you eat aluminum everyday. The whole aluminum-in-deodorant-makes-you-Alzheimer's has been busted a long time ago.

2. Ricky is a prophet.

3. I think Julia has a small crush on Ricky.

I loved Nonsense Lodwick!

This was fun to watch...more insight to what makes the talented Mr. Lodwick tick... focusing on the important things and not sweating (pardon the pun) the "small stuff" like fashion.

I still say Jakob's just ahead of his time :)

I think of it as a "wild things run free" type of thing. In elementary school, Jakob wore two different colors of Converse hi-tops (made from two separate pairs). No one else did that, but a few years later other people started doing it. In high school he started wearing t-shirts from Goodwill with outlandish (or, at the very least, irrelevant) things printed on them (like the one he describes in this clip). That was years before Busted Tees.

Not saying everyone will start wearing one shirt (or 3) over and over as a statement about the worth of fashion, though come to think of it that may not be so bad. It's just that Jakob has always marched to a different drummer, sartorially and otherwise. It's part of what makes him who he is.

But, hey, maybe things will change. I've always thought he looked great when he was dressed up: flickr.com/photos/anugent/44746758
