18 East

[NickPollica]

@NickPollica any plans on bringing back the kantha sahasika? Or kantha or the sahasika individually?

Would also love a reboot of the oatmeal/chocolate cotton linen nomad even if it's using different colored thread/yarn.

??? 2022.

Is that an Osman? If so, looking forward to that one! And the new bucket.

Yep

This is both one of the best lookbooks in a while and also one of the most cohesive collections. It really showcases all corners of the brand, from the skating influences (hoodie logos) to the Americana influences (rugby) to the Indian influences (kurta), suiting to cargos to double knees, handwoven Indian wool to corduroy to nylon to cotton fleece, with interesting colors from forest green to chocolate brown to faded blue to burgundy. So, so good.

We’re officially making snowsuits now. 50% off code to footage of the best method in this full fit.

@NickPollica can you clarify what you meant there?

(You had me at “snowsuits,” but you extra had me at “50% off” )

Probably something along these lines:

Finishing the year off super strong! Is there somewhere I can sign up to cop the whole collection?

Side note, does anyone know what boots these are? Danner or Paraboot maybe?

Thought it might be something like that!

Loving these shirts. Some great hats in these shots too…

Random but I'm wearing my bangs coyote shirt, and I just realized they have size pockets like a jacket. Mind just got blown lol

18 East-adjacent tangent: Mayan Rajendran is one of the models featured in the early 18 East lookbooks (and I believe some of the later Eidos ones). I thought it was so cool that the brand not only incorporated fabrics/designs of my parents' country but maintained that diversity in their casting.

I didn't start following 18 East until May 2020, so while browsing older Instagram posts to learn about pieces from the early drops, Rajendran's account was tagged and I saw he was making these shirts from his mom's old sarees - a cool design to buy for friends in NYC after quarantine was so bleak for so long.

I read yesterday's newsletter from No Man Walks Alone and they're now carrying his brand! The pieces are beautiful - the saree pieces in particular look like they'd mesh with 18 East pretty well.

I would not expect to get this stuff before Xmas, maybe be happily surprised if I do, but wouldn’t expect it.

Just received my international shipping from DHL without a hitch. Just wondering whether @NickPollica can reconsider the international shipping decision.

Im sure the 18E fans wouldn't mind paying extra shipping costs to cover your losses from international shipping. Just feeling disappointed to be cut off completely. (Shipping via a forwarder is not the easiest for some countries)

I suggest looking into proxy services. As I said previously, unfortunately we don't have the bandwidth to deal with all the customer service issues/complaints that we have no control over related to international shipping.
