Nomad looks to have it from the sounds of it (read comments): http://web.stagram.com/p/311540005292191204_20774330
Oddly, the actual Wings + Horns online shop doesn't seem to carry every colour of everything. They didn't have the navy bush pants either.


Interesting enough this isn't a colorway I've actually seen before. So I guess there are actually 3?



This is the one I was talking about, wow, it does exist!

No sign of it in any North American retailer yet (although the black MA-1 just went up on the W+H webstore), maybe I'll message some of the canadian shops.

1) The Reigning Champ x Haven MA-1 looks to be much nicer. I personally think the W+H one is ass but that's just me.

2) Stadium has some nice stuff

3) I thought the corded pants were made of that dainty stuff the SS12 pants were made of - my bad... they look awesome and will be purchased for sure

Are there any actual pictures of this? I only see the design sketch on the Facebook page. I'd be interested though, would probably carry a less absurd price tag.

anyone know if the research bomber from f/w11 stretches? tried on a small at the sample sale and was good fit but real tight in the chest/shoulder area (esp if i lift my arms)

thanks for the response. will have to think over the size S... torso felt really constricted if my arms were lifted in, say, a driving position. think that will get better over time or no? i was wearing a tshirt and a thin sweater

Most likely will get better. I remember mine being stiff and a bit tight. It definitely has high arm holes and is cut slim. Maybe also because of the thickness of the material.

Nowadays I don't think twice about it, while I don't think the material stretches, it definitely has loosened.
