J Crew: Adventures in horrible clothing and decent marketing

Pics.. I'm around 5''9 ish.. and weigh 140 to 145 depending..






I know my mirror sucks but it's the only one in my home where I can take pics with natural sun. The rest of the mirrors suck

Such a nice cop...I'm hoping that this was available Canada only, to feel better for missing it.

I actually traded it with my cousin who works at CM for some other goodies Last time I checked they had sizes in store

Not thrilled about either, but given the choices I would go with the utility jacket. Mainly because I like the collar better on that and because the other jacket only comes in black,

The utility jacket was too plasticky/shiny for me, but your mileage may vary.

The other one is pretty cropped, and yeah, black.

You didn't keep the waxed parka?

Thanks Winston. I'm looking for something more of a transitional jacket from winter to spring.

Althanis - I traded it with my cousin and got a casual shirt and Chino's instead. He really wanted it. Plus I like my stuff fitted, being a parka it was a bit loose

Honestly, don't really like any of the sale offerings for that. Not on sale I'd prefer the "Baracuda" jacket or one of the Barbour jackets. It's 70 in NY today, and I wasn't sure if I should even step out with a jacket today. Ended up going with my single breasted Uniqlo rain coat.

I see, once you're happy.

It seems we skipped Spring entirely and are now in Summer here in Toronto.

Makes no sense..went from 5-6C at night to a few days of rain then 25C.

You guys are right, I"ll hold out. Out of the sale stuff, which would you pick up?

 

[lofigeek]

last year there was a sweet pull over anorak in olive green, they had a full range of sizes at Bloor last Monday. I'd grab that if I didn't wear so much green already.

Anybody have the wool donegal shirt jacket? thoughts? is it filled or just lined? tia.

 

[Dr Huh?]

Has anyone tried on the Connor fit chinos? They appear to be the slimmest chino yet, but from the photos on the website they look kind of cropped.

I have. Too slim, like a Emo kid. But that's me.

Davis chino's are a perfect fit for me. Not too slim and not too loose, just right
