White's Semi Dress boots in black leather.
Vintage 1920's or so pocket watch, silver, very art-deco with arabic numerals.

I could probably come up with something "cooler", but the item ive wanted for a couple of years, and never manage to get in my size, are the Red wing 866 pecos boots. so nice and simple.

DOn't know where you are... but they do crop up in the Liberty's sale.

I remember jonesing for these when they first reissued them - they're beautifully done. By the time I got to the sale last year they were out of my size, sob.

Still trying to find some ps sundance boots... size 10 anyone?

bsyde82 · Dec 17, 2008

a leather bomber and peacoat

holy grail items as in, i have yet to find one that looks and fits perfect. hard to believe.

Theory · Dec 17, 2008

even in peacoats?

crazy.. theres such variety.

bsyde82 · Dec 17, 2008

yea, crazy I know. I'm 5'8, 150 or so, fairly slim, but athletic build...and finding one that fits slimmer and shorter has been a challenge. the closest I've come to finding one that fits perfectly was actually a juicy couture one, out of all brands. it was a dressier, more structured peacoat that fit perfectly in the shoulders and length (b/c it was technically considered "cropped&quot

. but the collar was huge and I like the option of having the collar down and up.

mmmmm...those are close to the top of my list as well. I think I'd be an 11 or 12 in them.

A lot of the things posted here are not "holy grails".

A holy grail is something that is practically unobtainable, either because it is rare or because it is way out of your budget, that you hope to one day be able to own. Or, something that you saw in a vision and don't even know if it exists.

The next purchase you're planning is probably not a holy grail.

I don't really have a holy grail item, but a perfectly fitting G2-style bomber jacket would be pretty epic.
