My SNS actually isn't the same pattern but can understand how my lousy pic gave you that impression, here is a close up of the pattern.

And a bonus shot of my Margiela. It's the hairiest thing I've ever owned, it leaves traces of itself on everything it comes into contact with.

It's been in the 90's here the last couple of days, but we can't let this thread rest on Page 3.

What's the consensus on Geller knits? Really liking the scarred collar cardigan, even if it's well out of my price range.

He did a fairly heavy weight, loose knit oversized cardigan with toggle clasps that was great. They might still have it at gravity pope vancouver. Blackbird still has the braided cossack in two colourways, I always think of grabbing one but they're still more than I want to pay for something that has no sleeves.

I've never handled any of it myself in person and apparently the materials/knit patterns are amazing, but I don't really get it either..

A steezy mofo can make the sns look really dope but they don't compare design wise to any of my stuff posted. Still copping green stark though.

I love the look of this cardigan, but I cannot in good faith justify paying that much for cotton.

I don't really recall feeling them I'd get wool instead, their cotton isn't that great.

Mac, that jil feels like wool even though it's cotton and doesn't pill.
