    Not Gore-tex. Spot FIL release, cotton herringbone in olive, with corduroy detail. I ordered this around 2014/2015.

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    In order to aid a project, I'm considering letting a few prized pieces go. Thought this maybe the best place to post, or maybe Grailed, but not sure if the latter is used much these days. Any interest, do let me know. I'm after reasonable money for the vest considering how rare it is, and the...

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Does anyone know if I will be able to get a replacement piece for a pair of 1962? I've lost the tortoiseshell/acrylic bridge piece, must have come off months ago I only just realized!

    Shifting a few items which haven't been used very much at all. SS23 Loiter High Count Twill Navy- Medium Excellent, only worn a few times. $240 I have a matching pair of Carlyle pants (34 waist), again SS23 which I was keeping, but if anyone wants a set then its $460 for the jacket and...

    Show us how you roll in Engineered Garments

    Just looked at my bureau emails, the Loiters I had from them were 2016 & 2017, that nylon Bedford is 2019. Picked up an Andover suit 2019, a Logger and a Bedford, and quite a few vests, tees, and some pants over the last handful of years, all those I've thought were reasonably consistent in...

    Show us how you roll in Engineered Garments

    Apols if this has already been covered but having bought well over a dozen EG jackets in the past, half of them quite possibly Bedfords, and they've always been a consistent off-the-peg perfect cut for me, has the sizing completely changed? Earlier this season I picked up a Loiter in a medium...

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    If you look closely the midsole has a layer of crepe still attached, never had any of them re-stitched but the last pr went to a different cobbler. I've only got the bottom pr and the dk brown now, the latter have a broken toe cap on one boot which collapses, haven't been able to find a way to...

    I've had several done but always opted for a different sole, you can have another crepe applied. Bit of a fan of of the ISDT, last pair (bottom) they left a thin layer of crepe and bonded a Vibram directly to it which I didn't ask for but turned out ok and even more comfortable.

    For metal tipped (also for sand virgils) I've used these (UK) but you should find something similair on US ebay. https://bit.ly/2pUxtzi

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    I'm not sure of the name of the one on the kngrs, it was done at a Vibram repair store and is one of their sheets attached to the original mid. The only issue is that this sole squeaks like hell on a tile/smooth floor but seems to be very hard wearing, hoping to find a Vibram 2060 in sand to...
