ATTACHMENT: The Discussion

I think all Japanese stores are sold out of this This store has it, but price is insane: http://project314.com/shop/cow-hide-blouson-kb22-002-price-125000rub-3070-euro/

In addition, brown won't be released for SS13.

Sorry for the bad news.

That's such a ridiculously awesome leather jacket. It makes me wonder why other brands / designers can't copy, it's so basic.

Because the beauty of this jacket comes from the great quality leather. Not sure why you would want others to copy it ...

3000 euros? no thanks

Thanks for the info Brad.. guess I'll just hope one comes up on Rakuten or Yahoo JPN. I saw one in size 1 on Yahoo.. way too small for me though.

Yes, exactly haha. This jacket will be released in black and navy next year.

Sorry, there is no Size 5 of this item in Japan. Additionally, I don't know if any international retailer will stock it. Sorry I can't help more.

your guess is right. attachment is generally tts, but slim. follow chiggah's size guide. if you're somewhere in the middle, it's better to size up.

How can a brand be TTS when it uses a sizing scheme of 1,2,3,4,5? Those are not recognized men's sizes in any country. The only possible reference is a small handful of other Japanese labels like Julius or jun hashimoto that use similar looking numbers. But in my experience those sizes are not safe to compare between the labels. For example, jun hashimoto size 2 fits almost exactly like Julius size 1. And Attachment size 2 fits like Julius 1.5.

As for Attachment size 2 fitting like a 46, I tend to not agree with that either. Whenever I've tried on EU 46 items they fit me like a bag, yet Attachment size 2 has always fit me perfectly. It is true however that many Attachment pieces are designed to fit a little loose, so I could see an 46 who prefers a tighter fit wearing some of them. But I do not believe the designer intended for them to wore like this.

If you have any doubts, check out the posted height and weight of the models wearing Attachment size 2 on many Japanese web sites. They tend to be far skinnier than the models that a store in the US/EU would use when showing a 46 being worn.

Dude you're being seriously pedantic re: sizing numbers, and being totally anecdotal re: sizing. What they were saying is that the size is always the same and each size reliably corresponds to a European size.

Does anyone have any pics of the leather double rider jacket KK Attachment put out a while ago? I remember thinking it had a nice minimalist look to it.

MA-1 Worn. Size 2. Model is 175cm, 60kg.

I love that Attachment pieces can be worked into very different wardrobes.
