After following this thread for a while and liking what I see, I decided to take a gamble and purchased an older season Peir Wu bomber. Praying that it works out!

What bomber did you buy?

This navy one from SS14, via Suspension Point:



The measurements check out, chest-wise. (We'll see, shoulder-wise.) Sleeve length may be a touch long but it's nothing that alterations can't fix.

I don't have any good casual outerwear for Spring/Summer (barring my Stephan Schneider Match Jacket for early spring) so I'm hoping that this fits the bill. The extra discount from Boxing Week factored into my decision (as well as most of you folks eating up the Schneider clothing in my size

).

Perhaps if we drum up enough demand, we could convince them to open up pre-orders again, like they did for van Beirendonck during the summer. A shame that Peir Wu (presumably) didn't do well for them; I'm starting to like her aesthetic.

Nice, I was debating that one for a long time. Let me know if it doesn't work out!

It came in today!

...and at this time, it's a keeper. It's a lot more light-weight than I thought. The shoulders don't seem boxy to me (I'm around a 17'' in shoulder length) and the sleeve length is just about perfect. The last time I've felt this satisfied with the fit of a garment was when I stumbled onto a couple of Sage de Cret button-up shirts at a local retailer during the summer.

Now I'm wondering if her fits have changed much in the past couple of years. If not, I may be in trouble...

And just for reference, I purchased the 46. I had to email them before placing the order and I initially thought SS took down both remaining sizes to see which one I needed. Looks like the 48 sold shortly afterwards.

Reviving this thread...does anyone know what's going on with this line? No stockists listed on the website and quick google search doesn't turn up much.

No idea, seems like it's been gradually going offline since 2015. Less and less and less.

Probably a huge shot in the dark - but if anyone has any size 46-50 Peir Wu they wanna sell you should send me a message; very interested in getting some more stuff!

Agreed - I've slowly accumulated a decent collection but really wish she would come back to making clothes. Need more size 48 shirts (I got too swole for my 46s :( )
