    Random fashion thoughts - Part II (A New Hope)

     I have the Apolis Transit parka from that line nad it's essentially just a single cotton (supposedly Ventile) layer. It's fine for layering over a suit, but London in January seems pretty darn cold and I'd go with something more insulated. Also, the craftsmanship of the jacket is rather meh.

    Technical Outerwear

    Anyone have experience with Isaora's UX Parka Shell, basically their take on a fishtail? Can't seem to find a review online. I'm curious about their 3L fabric from Japan. Also, I totally missed out on the Thanksgiving week sale. Do they do post-Christmas/New Year's? Thanks!

    Most Camerman jackets are made of Ventile now. If you want a Mackintosh upper, you'd have to look at the older ones (pre-2013?).

     If you're going to be out in the wet for an extended period of time, I'd go with something synthetic. I like Ventile because it breathes better, but I also don't see myself being caught in a downpour for more than 2-3 minutes. Zissou, thanks for the reply! Best of luck on trackign down the...

    Thinking about picking up a Cameraman. Does it usually fit pretty boxy? All the photos look that way. How do you guys like the jacket? It seems like classical Nigel Cabourn to me since it's been around forever, like the Mallory, which is why I kind of want to own one. Thanks!

    SNS Herning- fits?

    Any retailers in the States still carry an Oxblood Stark? Thought Indigo & Cotton's code wasn't good until Thursday, but it's good now, and the oxbloods are all sold out there. Would prefer not to resort to Europe due to customs fears (unless you guys have had luck with Frans Boone).

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    Anyone know if they'll ever release the 3139 Work Chukka in Coppersmith in the States? They seem like an EU-only thing at the moment. http://www.redwingamsterdam.com/blog/321/introducing-the-work-chukka-copper-worksmith

    NWT Barbour x Tokito Waxed Bicycle Jacket in Medium (T630)

    Pretty much identical to this other listing. Model/color is T630, which is supposedly rustic brown, but the jacket looks more dark olive/black than such. Bought it from another SF member. Details are: Outer fabric is 56% cotton, 44% polyester. Inner: 100% cotton. Lower lining: 65% polyester...

    Stylish, cheap frames- Warby Parker

    Warby Parker's glasses come from China. Ethically, they try to balance this out by giving away a pair. Bon Look does the same thing.

There are no specific requirements for the shoes, only that they be black leather dress shoes. Shoes For Crews.. nothing else works better, especially for under $80. The leather is cheap, but...
