I don't think there was any overall's this past s/s or last f/w. Definitely F/W 10 and earlier more workwear-y seasons had them. This past s/s had the combi-suit which is a shorts jumpsuit. There may still be a couple floating around on sale somewhere.


There aren't :/. Trust me. I've been looking for weeks. I emailed spammed a lot of Japanese distributors, even did Google Translate messages, and no one has ******* anything EG. I just want one of those Combi Suits in a Large...

I'd say Olive or Grey would be my first choices.

I really wish they'd bring back the Bush shirt for this season.
It is. Check out look book pic #23 - One of my favorite looks this season and I am inclined to get the entire fit (Somebody with better posting skills might be able to post it here ... I could not save it as a pic).

Looks like Nepenthes Japan is getting their Vans this weekend. I contacted them for a international order, but they won't ship overseas. I thought more pairs would surface on the resell/ebay market but zero luck.

If you anyone from Japan on here willing to proxy over to the states, please let me know.

I'm thinking the brown canvas fatigues would look pretty good.

there's often a few pairs of vans x eg on yahoo japan auctions. Very overpriced iirc, but if you are really really desperate and they have your size. Otherwise I'm sure Nepenthes NY will get another drop eventually.

Olive, indigo, navy, dark grey, light khaki – basically every staple. Not sure about homespun because I've never seen either in person but there's potential there. I don't think the saturated brown of the canvas fatigues would be exceptionally flattering but it's a possibility.

I need those homespun ghurka pants, but everyone is sold out of 32's!

What's everyone's opinion of the faux-suede being used for the patches this season? Thick or thin? Durable or cheap feeling?

I was just wondering why you don't think the brown will work? I was thinking the little bit of orange in the jacket would complement the brown quite well.
