Really surprised prorsum would make a coat that doesn't drape at all, it feels like wearing cardboard.

Thanks for info. I was bout to pickup that peacoat and had the same concerns.

Same. I stress-bought the last navy Prorsum trench during that time the site was not responding. I didn't realise I liked clothes this much. I don't think I can be friends with any of you unless you're a different size from me.

 

Can I ask a dumb question though, what does EG stand for in relation to shoes? It sounds like one of those things I need to know instantly.

PS. There's this Lanvin coat you might really like really like in case paying half price bores you...

WOW thanks. They're pretty luscious. I definitely prefer Lobbs though. If I hadn't already bought an entire new wardrobe in the last 2 days I'd be pretty tempted.

 

Do any of you guys wear suede shoes? What's the deal, or am I just kidding myself.

Suede is awesome and much loved around here.

Yes, suede is the one to go for. Behaves much better in rain and can go for casual and formal

I got a pair of jeans and it showed up with a candy bar wrapper in the pocket. It doesn't look worn at all. I assume it was a return originally, but that's not exactly what I want to see when buying fairly expensive denim plain.gif

Have you spoken to customer service and if you have what was the outcome? They'll for sure give you some sort of store credit...

I got the same Prorsum trench, the quality and workmanship is amazing. I got it from Luisaviaroma though since Mrporter sold out of 46/small before sale. Luisaviaroma had it at 50% off when I got it, then soon after they put it back to full price (maybe it was on promo by mistake), shame cause I was going to get the cream colour too. 

 

The peatcoat is really not my thing, I think it'll go up to 70% off. 

 

My Mr Porter order arrived this morning, DHL is so fast. 

 

Burberry Prorsum cashmere shawl knit

http://www.mrporter.com/product/175865

Very well made, worth the money, lovely piece.

 

Alexander McQueen two tone suit jacket

http://www.mrporter.com/product/181710

Again, very well made piece. Unique two tone colour. Sleeves are maybe 1cm too long,

still deciding to get them altered/return/or keep~~. Surprised not many sizes have sold out.

Not yet, had just noticed before I posted. Going to message them today and see.

I think that sweater is way too short if you're > 6 feet tall.

Difficult to tell. Either that's a really short jacket or a really tall model.

The picture is throwing it off for me too and MrPorter seems to put the same measurements for all jackets.
