    A barf worthy rip off of an appropriated pattern

    So many interesting and different discussion points being raised I think these days the overall look of every expensive brand can be re-created with cheapos. $3000 SLP perfectos can look like $300 all saints for example. Workwear inspired looks can be replicated pretty well with Gap/j-crew...

    Post Brexit import experiences

    Like most people these days I shop online a lot. All over the world. In 99% of cases shops remove local taxes when shipping abroad. This is very easy to embed in any payment system on any website since I guess html 1.0. Many shops have a no return policy for foreign sales and the shipping...

    New Aero Elvis fqhh

    Yes agreed, you sort of confirmed what I was thinking. I come from fixating on the p2p and have a narrow range in mind of what works or not on me but these jackets just can’t be sized like that. The top block is designed to be roomy. Provide the hem measurement is a must.

    New Aero Elvis fqhh

    I like these jackets and their cut but the bottom hem is a worry for me after the Grizzly I had. Do you think a size up would be more wearable for you? I wonder if with these jackets you should just focus on the hem measurement and let the top go wild. My specific concern is that with such a...

    What jeans are you wearing today ?

    Washing machine 30 degrees inside out on low spin setting after 5/6 wears or when they lose their shape. Hand washing blue jeans is totally unnecessary in my experience, it’s cotton not cashmere…

    Thoughts on Shangri-La leather jackets?

    Aero/Shangri-La (aero and sb are the same jackets, at least in terms of built).

    Thoughts on Shangri-La leather jackets?

    Fit dude… try to understand what you want. These two jackets look superficially the same but fit very differently. The delta in quality is close to zero. The delta in price is also small.

    Thoughts on Shangri-La leather jackets?

    I’d base the decision on desired fit. HWM is boxy the other definitely more fitted.

    Japanese brands rejecting Shinki

    When for 2 months in summer the weather sucks so much that there is hardly a bbq day there is no jacket that could put a smile on your face, trust me :D

    BK threads always have drama a plenty no doubt about that. Even if it’s got nothing to do with BK :D I’m very curious to see your archive line jacket @Canuck Panda. I’ve been tempted myself to get a Cycle Champ but never pulled the trigger (not sure I’ll get much wear out of it, I don’t have...

    Two ELMC Californians Different Color Different Size. Which One Would You Keep?

    The most sticking difference visually for me it’s the length. I prefer the shorter one. But I like the darker colour more. Though decision :D

    I need a proxy in Japan and like yesterday!

    ^Fair enough I’m sure there are a few variables at play (type of service, location, value of the item, etc.) but $300 is a lot for surface mail for one item of clothing. I know for a pair of heavy boots in a generous sized box normally you are around £70/80 with FedEX/UPS using zen market...
