Layer-0 coat is killer!! Keep the length for now, you can always chop it off. Pair it with the chunky footwear as you're doing, adds to the drama

I actually think the drips aren't chunky enough haha. Wish I had the white u-sole drips

Any thoughts on WJK?

 

[fistinyoface]

Jun seems like a cool guy. I don't think there's much to WJK since he left. However, I don't pay attention to the label.

 

[nicelynice]

Wjk is well-made, so if there's a piece you're interested in chances are it'll be alright. Uses same heavy jersey as Ma+, etc etc Brand as a whole isn't too interesting, though

 

[Caveat]

Wjk fits really small as well. I have a top in size L and it's about the equivalent of a typical S.

 

[thatoneguy]

Aw ya I figured they would fit really small Thanks for the input

came across these and was interested

I just picked up a WJK horse leather blazer that I'm waiting on to arrive. I'll let you guys know how that works out.

 

[thatoneguy]

I have this shirt and its awesome. Colors were inspired by Altieri's truck. Reversible to a solid color

So this chunk of horse arrived today with 50x 70¢ AU stamps on the package.
No kidding about the small fit. This is tagged as a WJK Small but is actually a very slim 44. I'm not certain how old it is since i can't read anything listed on the tags other than size. I'll post some fit pics at some point. It is dead on perfect for my frame. Just tight enough to cause the leather to stretch a bit in the shoulders. The horse hide is washed so its heavy but buttery supple and holds shape nicely. I can't wait to really break this in. The body lining is a nice middle weight cotton too. The color has some nice gunmetal and greenish tones that pull through in sunlight.
