wings+horns F/W 2012 - Page 54

Not sure if they were from this season, but is it still possible to get the all-black suede hi's somewhere?

Anyway, all they have is that overpriced faded denim jacket. Glad I picked one up from EG this fall that was much nicer and on sale nonetheless.

Nordstrom is weird like that too - they list Band of Outsiders on their site, but the LA store doesn't carry it (which you would assume would be the store to carry that sort of brand).

I know Nordstroms usually introduces their stuff in phases. THey will test it on the site, then they will go region by region, then store by store. Stores will get One initial shipment and if they sell they will get more. Some items seem to get a longer stay, i guess its the arrangement they have with distributors.

It's really sad though - W+H used to be my favorite clothing line hands down and I think only picked up 1 piece last season. It's a shame to see the direction they're headed...

I think that for the quality of their product, wings is at the point where they have the same right as many high-end manufacturers to put on heavy price tags. I'd prefer they continue to make nice stuff (even if I have to wait for it to go on sale), rather than outsource or degrade their quality like APC or Rag and Bone have just to satisfy the mainstream consumer.

Gotta pay to play bawlin. You should know this, you have a Rolex as your avatar.
