I have about $500 worth of stuff sitting in my bag on the website waiting for me to order. I'm holding out for a 20+% with free shipping coupon code.

Looks good on you. I think Belstaff jackets really dress up well actually. My issues are are unique to me and my location/weather and really are just functional issues.

If you ever get tired of the wax you can take it to the laundry and wash it a couple of times to get it out. Worked really well. I then dyed mine a much darker brown and rewaxed it a few times since. The waxed tan was just too much of a filth magnet if you use it hard. Patina is nice but it just looked nasty

they got notified 1 hr and 6 minutes later that I didn't want it

what's their time worth? what's my time worth?

at least 8 (!) people are going to touch that package I'm guessing round trip and that's a low estimate

warehouse person, delivery person, admin person, me, delivery person to return it, warehouse person, returns dept person, admin person to restock it

Not to mention all the time you've wasted bitching and whining about this?

Yeah. I'm pretty sure 18" is standard on a 40 jacket. Don't know how anyone would have a 36" chest and 18" shoulders unless they were nothing but a ribcage.

Saw the Woodland jacket in-store today. It's basically a Barbour jacket. Flannel lined, oiled not waxed. Too bad, I love the look but I can't really get into oiled clothing. Not good for touch phones. Hands were noticeably oily just trying it on. Anyway it looks a lot different than the preview pics. Otherwise, perfect jacket. Looked amazing.

WTF?! That shoulder is enormous! I guess I have to pass the only item I'm willing to pay full price for so far.

PSA: Was just notified of this in an e-mail from J. Crew:

I'd also like to let you know that effective tomorrow, September 12, our student discount will revert to being offered exclusively in our retail stores. This promotion was originally designed as an exclusively retail position, and we've decided to return to that format.
So, we can no longer use our student discount for online orders. Looks like I won't be ordering much from JC anymore.. can't think of any pieces which are worth full retail + outrageous shipping fees

Why does JCrew insist on spamming my inbox to let me know "new styles have been added to the Sale section," when I never see anything added?

This is happening more and more often lately.

I have both, although Jcrew's are nice Clark's are a far better value.
