^ blue 5 zip is awesome IRL regis, would work well with your wardrobe. so you didn't like the orange? i thought that was pretty cool, although it would take some wearing in ..

 

[filcol]

I like the blue one too but I think the cream one would fit better in your wardrobe Regis. It would go with like 80% of your fits and always look awesome

 

[einstine]

Yea go for cream!

Anyone know what type/brand of zippers these are? They're more blingy than my grandma's jewelry box.

They are Lampo, AFAIK the exact same zipper is on every Balmain menswear piece (jeans, jackets, boots, hoodies).

That metallic jacket someone posted looks exactly like every other silver leather (MMM, Paul Smith, Dsquared, Varvatos, RLBL, and I wanna say Phillip Lim and Raf)

Never paid attention of those zippers, but I just found it good quality and very shiny.

Did some research and found those are good/expensive zippers

off topic but saint laurent has a metallic silver thing of this.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

well and few pair of shoes in same material

Below is a pic of my leather jacket. Made in USA by Sniders Leather in Haverhill, Ma in the early 90s. They are no longer in business as far as I can tell. I like the jacket a lot and seems to be of high quality. If anyone knows anything about the company that made this jacket i'd love to hear it.

Almost all of my older DH (Hedi era) had Lampo. Never had any issues with them, in metal or plastic.

stickers the puckering at the seams looks so bad

Siki Im leathers (all outerwear actually) use Lampo, if anyone cares. Don't know if it's still going but allotment uk was doing 50% off leathers. Small selection but included silent, siki im, and I think a couple others. Don't know more than that. Just saw it on their twitter feed

Lampo is a first rate Zipper that is on par with RiRi and in some ways even better for some kind of things than riri

i don't know if i'd be sold on a suede 5 zip
interesting, maybe should go to sw&d blazer thread as well

I am sort of the opposite - I'd definitely like the suede 5 zip and that Incarnation turns me off a bit (even though I am normally obsessed with Incarnation).
