    getting jeans off ebay

    I think the 47's are all cotton, whereas the okinawa's are 50% cotton, 50% sugarcane. I own the okinawa's...very nice, super slubby, intense colour. They run a bit small imo, keep that in mind. Good price too!

    Technical Jackets

    There's a european company called Acronym that makes high-tech blazers, etc. Pricey and hard to come by...but worth a look if you've got the cash. Sold at The Glade.

    Levis anti-fit tailoring fix?

    Wouldn't it be easier to just buy jeans that are the cut the way you want already? Altering jeans can be tricky and you'd need to have a very good tailor that's done that sort of thing before.

    Technical Jackets

    One other company - I'm thinking of giving a shot at this year is Beyond Fleece. It's an internet company, but they you can at least be sure the jacket is fit to your body. The schoeller material of their Cold Fusion line is comparable in quality to the Malden Mills Powershield technology of the...

    Technical Jackets

    I'm a tech-jacket nutbar...I have one for every possible weather condition. If you want my recommendation for a rainy spring jacket...try Patagonia's Spraymaster. Super stretchy, super light weight (folds into its own pocket), breaths fairly well and is cut very slim & trim. Top notch in my...

    shoe life...

    Ken Coles are #1 -counting from the bottom, that is. Even Church's quality is suspicious, nowadays. The rumor is that they use poor quality leathers (corrected grain). Don't know if it's really true, given the high price, but both here and on Ask Andy it's the rumor. Is corrected grain a bad...

    Samurai S5000BK

    Thanks for all the info. I know they're not a Japanese company, but any opinions on Imperial Duke's? I'm drawn to the subtle pocket stitching and long inseam. Is it worth spending the same dollar value on Japanese-made jeans rather than jeans actually produced by a Japanese company?

    Any recommendations for a similar style in black? (preferably one that I can actually find in my size!)

    Samurai S5000BK

    I want to order some S5000BK, but am not sure what size because I want as slim a fit as possible The sites that I've e-mailed suggested ordering true to size (32), but I want to go down to a 31. I have skull 5010xx 6x6 in a 31, which I couldnt button at all at first, but then stretched to a...
