I’m in the market for a denim jacket, and currently deciding between the two below. Which one would you go with? Also, would love some recommendations for a possible alternative choice. Thanks.


CELINE:

Between those two, I would do the Celine. But personally think a vintage Lee 101J is better than both.

I wouldn't buy @bravestarselvedge. those asshats sent me a pair of denim that was way out of tolerance and wouldn't refund me.
The total thigh measure was 3/4" too small and they tried to tell me it can be 1/2" off on the 1/2 measure...that's 1 INCH total that they can be wrong??? WTF. Even though they only reference the 1/2" tolerance on the waist for their website...and that's on the total measure, not the 1/2 measure.
They do not stand by their product. They do not answer the phone either.

Rag & Bone is shamelessly overpriced, though...

for much of it, I agree. I do like that their denim is still made here. I won’t buy unless they have some sort of discount going on, which they often do. Below $200 for made in the USA jeans is doable for me. Not to mention that I like the fit.

But yes, $150 for a t-shirt is a bit nutty.
