Substantial wool outer with a comfortable lining, removable hood, hidden button pocket flaps, plus a ton of other nice details. Really gonna hang onto my +J pieces as they were seriously a great bang for the buck. I may have to tailor the sleeves though as they are a touch long.

Awesome, which coat is this? Any pics?

I bought one with my last order to get my order over $100 for free shipping and it's my favorite piece of the bunch. I really hope they bring them back next fall.

I just popped over the 5th Ave. store and saw some l/s crew neck tees. Any info on the ones you're talking about?

Very surprised there are so many sizes left in this at this price.

Anyone know where I could get a pair of the size 32 MIJ regular fit black denim? I saw them at one of the NYC stores but they only had size 31, and they seem to not exist online.

I bought a couple lambswool sweaters online and they were alright - small was a little big (don't mind too much in a sweater), fabric was a little itchy (to be expected with wool). Went into the store on 5th to try on some flannel shirts and get a couple pairs of chinos, felt a lambswool sweater in the store and it felt a hell of a lot softer than the one I got online. Is there any difference, or is the grass just greener?

Pretty happy with the flannel, though the sleeves are within a couple millimeters of being too short. Chinos are nice, too, very very cheap and they take care of the hem for free. Now I'm wondering how hard it would be to buy a bunch of the light gray ones and dye them myself.

Also saw a corduroy shirt just sitting alongside the flannels, but it was in Small and the X-Small shirts fit me much better. Asked an employee, they said they only had what was sitting around. Anyone have any idea if and when they bring those out again?

I noticed the lambswool and blended sweaters ran a little big.  The flannels are decent for the price, no complaints there.  With the generic S/M/L sizing sleeve length can be a problem.  I just go up a size to get the longer sleeve then have the torso and shoulders taken in.  I really hate sleeves that are too short.

Yeah I was kinda surprised, I was expecting clothes cut for little Asian men. They probably changed their sizing for the US, though.

I don't think so. I went to the Uniqlo flagshio in Ginza, Tokyo.  Sizing seemed to the same as what I found at the NYC flagship store.

That makes sense then.  The lambswool was still too loose in the arms for me.

What's the general consensus on the bomber jacket?
