WEAR journal finally arrives to its third issue in spartan outfit: double-pleated, DIY and pretty much naked. Following the first two issues' design of a coverless magazine about urban dress, this issue thinks about the fashionable phrase "你有种 nǐ yŏu zhŏng" in a few of the other realms where HomeShop likes to dwell: critical theory, micropolitics and artistic production. "有种 yŏu zhŏng"—literally meaning "to have seed" and metaphorically insinuating that one is ballsy or daring—becomes here more than a launchpad for a series of rolling activities (like seed bombing or urban exploring); it is also the point of potential from which the likes of a film critic, organic market organizers and artist-activists engage in a context-specific dialogue on the global realities at play in China.

《穿》第三期终于出来了，像个斯巴达勇士,穿的不多，但浑身腱子肉。因此它更具穿透力，穿插在不同的系统，话语与现实之间。与其它表里不一的出版物不同（多数的杂志 封面材料与内容页不同），每期《穿》的装帧设计都很丢脸（即试图将自身的面目在表里的模糊中丢掉)。言归正传，本期的《穿》围绕"你有种"这一时髦用语，从批判理论，微观政治与艺术生产三个方向娓娓道来：有种即种子于某主体中的存在但它在日常交流中所具有的"有胆色"，"胆子大"等含义却不可避免地把主体的边界和限制打破在从内在的"有"向外在的行动或行为的运动中达成了自身作为种子的生长。因此它不仅是一系列滚雪球活动（如种子炸弹，城市探险等）的发射台，更是一个在影评人，有机市集发起人与艺术行动主义者等个体间展开的关于中国当代境遇的讨论的潜在节点。
