It sucks?
I'm slowly fading out W+H and only buy select sale items/ebay/yoox - looking into buying more made in america products like Taylor Stitch at much more reasonable prices without the "fashunz" mark up. I owned the leather varsity up there, it was nice, but the raglan shoulders looked goofy on. Looking back at all the W+H I've bought I feel kind of underwhelmed, other than the tiger fleeces (but they're just hoodies..) and a few unique fabrics it's all kind of boring. I bought the WH x HR fishtail and that's pretty sweet, but the fit is boxy, which is disappointing.
Really I don't find it that boxy - you can use the drawstrings on the side make it more fitted. I snagged one this year from yoox as I've been looking for a fishtail (even though its not your traditional fishtail) / trench coat / wax outerwear for awhile. For the price I paid I like the piece. Just enough room to layer a chunky knit underneath and seems to do a pretty good job of keeping out the rain / wind
How much did you buy it for? Honestly, I'd be interested in buying it.how much can I sell that grey/black varsity jacket for? I have one in XS and I don't wear it enough to justify keeping it. I hardly see it on B&S either.
better hurry up on those bush pants!Yeah, I feel I'm more interested in F/W from W+H than I'am their S/S stuff. The FW Large Loop hoodie and tiger fleece are my favorite hoodies, Which I'd take over their S/S Hoodies. Like someone said the sweatpants were great for about 4 months, then they just sagged like a ma ******! looking like I got a load of doo doo in my pants, and plus I would have to walk with my hands in my pockets, pulling the pockets to the side of my leg, so my junk wasn't outlined so perfectly. LOL. The only thing left to get from this past FW season is the camo jacquard bush pant.
Has anyone seen any looks coming next FW?
Yeah I agree, I feel that the current w+h stuff has been kind of lazy in their design. There hasn't been any stand-out pieces, and honestly I miss those classic military designs. I for one especially loved that mk2 wool field jacket from 09 and that 25oz mackinaw jacket from 08. They should definitely look into the past and bring something like that back on the table.
I think that Varsity, the Foul Weather Bomber and the Wool Field Jacket are the best outerwear they've ever produced.
