hey David, where in the North West are you? I spent a fair bit of my youth in and around Chester/Manchester/Liverpool. Sorry if this is a weird question, I just don't come across many people from that part of the world with my current location.
5 miles from Chester, Ellesmere Port area, famous for random weather. Example. Sat 23 deg C, yesterday 13 C for most of the day.

Why are you selling it, too large? I thought you and I have a similar build ( i.e. size 2 the default size ). May be you are way taller than me than on pictures. What is the fabric?

Not it's really good size actually. The shoulders draping nicely and the length it's perfect, also the sleeves doesn't have buttons, so they can be rolled or even tailored but I bought something else similar and wanted to see if someone would want this one. It's cotton 001 fabric. Hidden chest jet pocket, double lapels, side pockets can be access from inside and outside.... All the yohji stuff :D

Sounds very good, btw how tall are you? I ask because I am naturally a size 2 ( although about a quarter of my stuff are sz 3 depending on the cut ). Also I notice SS06 can be a bit random, one blazer fits perfectly in sz 3, then a coat I needed a sz 1.

Cheers :)

i just sold hakamas after reaizing i'd never really get to wear them that much

i am too often seated wherever i go, and these do not lend themselves well to sitting or kneeling or what have you, especially not repeatedly or for extended periods of time.
what's to stop me from getting the colorful ones next spring ? who knows ... but that means for now there is more yohji to be had elsewhere
i don't know if i'll grow to regret this or not , i had to confess though , at least it was an offer that was right
please forgive me , yohji brethren

If you don't wear them much and have other purchases in mind, nothing wrong to move them on especially the price was right.

Are the SS13 ones more Harem than Hakama pants?

Simple AW08 Set Up



YYPH AW08 Look 1 Tartan Blazer ( HE-D08-125 ) - used as a layering piece under the Handstitched Blazer on Runway. D- code? is a mystery. Complicated 70/14/13/3 wool/acrylic/polyester/nylon blend, feels like thin wool scarf fabric. Size 2, very long buttonless sleeves ( tailored, they were same as jacket length ), 3B closure, peak lapels. 2/3 lined in cupro ( you'll see why ), grey with red/brown/white tartan pattern, 2 bottom flapped pockets with hidden button closure. Amazing trick at the back with 9 unlined long pleats asymmetrically arranged from middle of left pocket to just shy of right pocket. Flowing bell shaped silhouette, superb in motion, great construction. All these beautiful features were all hidden on Runway which demonstrated amazing depth in his shows. A layering piece can hold its own easily, staggering. I like to exaggerate the ballooning style by pairing with super baggy pants.

Y's for men AW08 Drawstring Pants ( ME-P52-074 ) - 100% interlocked cotton baggy trousers.

YY x Adidas AW08 Leather/Fabric YY G8 Zip Boots ( HE-E02-721 )

Basic SS Tee.
