Mine has held up fine (looks brand new), I’m at work currently, but I can take some pics tomorrow if you like.

Yeah I wouldn’t mind seeing when you get a chance. How is the sizing?

To add my two cents about the blackmeans drop tomorrow, I own both jackets from Season 8 in a size 4 (xl.) My tts is size 3 (L) and I bought them both on sale. I decided that the sizes up were worth the doscounted prices, but the fit sill looks dope. Maybe it’s my build, but had I gone tts I don’t think I could comfortable layer my knits

I wish my Wool stadium that I ordered from JE Thursday would ship! Sold my Iridescent Bomber last week so now I’m one down in the Bomber department until it arrives. It’ll likely be two weeks from the date I ordered before I have it in hand with their slow shipping out east.

I can second this. No way I can layer with my large. I’m usually a medium/large in JE jackets.

The leather stadium does look amazing but I’m just as happy to grab the wool stadium from Saks. I just need them to ship it to me now. Anyone else get shipping confirmation yet?

I agree Moncler quality is top notch but really pricey. If you want deals on Moncler, around Dec is when Barneys has clearance and you can usually get them for 50% off select styles.

Any idea on price point of blackmeans stadium tomorrow?

@nsubrmnn how is the sizing on the Moncler? Been meaning to grab one.

I just got mine in today. I have ShopRunner though through my Amex which is two day shipping. Though it depends if they’re in store. I bought the onyx as well and it just shipped today because it wasn’t at the warehouse.

The stadium jacket was more than the mainline rider last year and I would assume it’s in the same range. I think it was 1650 or 1700.

https://www.azaleasf.com has the navy striped turtleneck for 30 less for some reaso n.

For the most part, I really like the JE x Blackmeans stadium jacket coming out tomorrow, so much so that I've considered dropping the crazy price that they are surely going to charge. The thick detailing on the shoulder is kind of bothering me. I wish it wasn't so boxy and thick at the bottom. I like it at the top of the shoulder but I wish it curved in more so towards the bottom. More like the wool Stadium jacket or a Teddy. Does that bother anyone else? Wondering if it will grow on me.

Regarding cast 2's-

I've since sold my Scarabs, Odeon, Zinc, and Cobas. I have the Bianca's, Skittles, Dillon Blacks, Mr. Porter indigo distressed, Carbons, ordered Obsidians last night, and on my second pair of Nero's.

Honestly, I wear Nero's like 6 days out of the week lol and they look better as they age but they're getting a little too stretched in the thighs and knee holes mainly due to my dog.

Im probably gonna sell my Dillon Blacks and Mr. P Distressed very soon, and keeping the white denims on ice until summer.

My ideal point to get to with JE is to have all my staples covered, get a couple interesting items each season and buy new Nero's every year and that's it. Having too many clothes, especially denim, is absolutely pointless.

PS. I size down 2 sizes to 29 because the waists are so stretchy. Just a tip to some of you newcomers. Within 48 hours the cast 2's fit perfectly, every time.

Nero's
Vintage Misfits tee
Tom Ford shades
Vintage 1970's Omega Constellation

I too have 14 pairs of JE denim. Likely going to turn the Zincs into cutoff shorts - since they are from the first run. And I am gonna sell the Springs unless I have a change of heart.

I get pretty good use out of most of the denim. I'll wear two in heavy rotation and then switch them out.

I have too many clothes in general.

That's all.
