J Crew F/W 09 Discussion

[Robert]

It is weird when a thread gets spammed by one of the forum's own. Oh well.

Yes. Is there anything else we can help you with?

I just checked this threads stats and I have 121 out of 2021 total posts. So my posts account for a whopping 5.9%. If you combine Roberts posts it's not even close to 90%. This thread is entertaining.

Earlier in the thread I expressed interest in buying the cashmere hoodie. Can you reccomend a cashmere hoodie from another company, or a cashmere sweater that is not too dressy or dry flavored. I am in my early 20s.

Thanks.

Anybody have any fit/pics reviews of this seasons Tweed Blazer? Looks like a sturdy and solid go to piece. Granted that EG's beautiful Herringbone Bedford is long gone now, this might be my only other choice in this range. http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/Mens...7972/17972.jsp

I did not like the low button positioning on it when I tried it on, and the shoulders were too padded for my liking.

PAguy, pm LA Guy for recs on cashmere hoodies since he is the hoodie messiah he can probably recommend you something nice but you need to state your budget.

Go back to 'Streetwear and Denim', find the J Crew thread then click 'replies' on the right of the screen (you'll see a number around 2100.)

Mentioned this before, but tried this on and really liked the fit. Much better than the herringbone jacket, which is even more padded and just didn't look as good in person as it does online. I'll probably pick up the tweed jacket with a coupon shortly.

I just bought the tweed jacket myself, and I really like the fit. It does have a little more structure than I would normally look for in a casual sportcoat but it's also very flattering. I think the cut might be based on their Ludlow suit jacket.

is waxed cotton waterproof? referring to the jcrew duck boots over the ll bean joints.

I went to a J Crew store today and tried on the gunmetal gingham in M and it was smaller than the other BD shirts I have from J Crew. My Mediums are all a 22" pit-to-pit and, even though I didn't have a ruler, I'm pretty sure it was a 21.5" (I tried on two just to make sure), which is too small for me.

I asked a guy working there and he said they changed the sizing this season.

Anyway, anyone else experience this or have heard anything?

anyone have fit pics of that langham jacket?
