Anyone know how the motor zio hoodie fits and what the quality is like on it? I'm wondering why it's priced higher than the large lop goodies aswell. I'm a 5'11 with a 41 chest should I go with medium or large?

It fits slimmer and shorter than their other hoodies. Doesn't stretch nearly as much as their tiger fleece and large loop hoodies as well. Quality and overall look is awesome. By far my favorite out of all my Wings hoodies and I've pretty much owned all their different fabrications of hoodies. Really love the look of the Riri zippers on the pockets and has nice details like extra layer of jersey lining on the elbows and shoulders. Definitely worth the extra money.

lots of cheap stuff on ssense... tons of german cords for $75, khaki west points for $58(!) if you're a 36, rest of the west points for $98.

on that note, are there any places that stock brown west points and still have a 28? the only place i've ever seen them in brown is gravitypope and they only have them in 34. any help would be appreciated!

Will never buy the cord pants again, and I recommend no one else does either. They develop awful streaks.

It does look good. There's not currently much in it. I always wonder how retailers feel when companies begin selling direct.

Any comments or advise on the German cords ? For reference, I own the slim fit 1 year wash jeans in size 30 from the same season.

Heard/read that the fit is weird on these but its based on the same cutting as the jeans? Appreciate any comments or advise!!! Thanks!

Mangz, these have been discussed before... wash em and they'll end up being in the trash.

It's heavily discounted

Search through the 2012 W+H thread and after you wash them you can end up with unsightly lines all over the pants...

I thought it was residue at first but I washed them twice more and the problem persists. Almost seems like salt or soap residue, which is normal on dark pants, but I think they actually were affected by the wash/dry cycle. The care tag says that it is cool to do this, and though I normally don't dry my nicer clothes I was trying to shrink them ever so slightly. Shouldn't happen.
Anyway, I actually love these pants and want to get the other color ways but I'm worried they can't even stand up to a delicate hand wash cycle with nice cleaning products.

As the picture shows, there are large sections of the pants that are now covered with little horizontal light colored lines that actually look like small rips where the fabric is coming apart. Maybe I'm just being paranoid though. It may be difficult to see in the uploaded picture but hopefully someone knows what I'm talking about.

It appears to happen because of stretching - you may be able to work the threads back into place - that's what I did.

..But talk to RG and W+H first...they cooperated when I've had defective goods...

Thanks but what about the fit? I don't mind trying them out for 70 a pop.

Fit is really relaxed in top box, and very slim down the leg. Like super-slim.

Also, I have had two pairs of the cords from before S/S 12, and neither had the streaking problem fwiw.

Do appropriately sized w&h straight fits have more or less room in the thigh than apc ns?  What is the function of the darting in the leg?

It us much less pronounced on my tan pair than the charcoal.ones (which are now unwearable). Some people have reported no issues. At the end of the day, it's your money. Are you the gambling sort?

Bought s/s Novajo Jacquard plaket polo off context. Really excited about this piece wish I would have bought the darker grey as well, but could not find my size anywhere.

 A quick question, I'm sure has been discussed here. Are the cropped chinos from this passing season true to size? Was manly wondering because I have a pair of west point chinos from '11 and the waist on a tagged 28 measures at 15" flat and wanted something closer to an actual 29" waist

 

here is a fit pic of the polo if it matters to anyone.
