I never hang my tees or sweatshirts. I have some trunks around my place to store them—dual purpose—decoration and storage. It’s a pain ********** to pick out what to wear, but until I get a bigger place, I’ll have to continue doing this nonsense. I also have the under bed storage containers, I fold a bunch of stuff and store it in there

I have the 3 trunks that are reasonably priced on the screenshot. They actually fit a crap load. The silver one fit ~50 tees, ~8ish of JEs sweaters (eg pigtail, cotton, etc etc). Highly recommended if wanted to spice up your place and want to get use out of the decor

fits you better than it fits me! what's your size / dimensions? it doesn't look so cropped on me because of my torso, but it only looks off if i button it (i don't think varsity jackets look good buttoned anyways).

5’9” 140ish and wear a small in almost every JE top/Jacket, (xs in ae/os tees fit preference) and 28 denim.

Washed my obsidians last night... inside out, delicate/hand wash cycle, cold water with a little wool lite dark, and hang dryed. It seems to have set the colour and they are still black as black!

Stoked as I want them to stay black and not fade like most traditional raw denim. As i already have carbons and onyx in the washed black denim department

Now that you’ve washed them you’ll prob be good, but I’d still only wash them infrequently. Washing can cause color loss as well

Anyone know where to find oversized cropped hoodies? Sold out in my size (2). Looking to replace all my kake mocks (except for sage )

Comparison of the Coast 2 and Nimbus. Both are brand new with tags.
I measure BIG style all my denim before I wear them just to see where they are at before and after stretch and after a wash.

First pic the Coast 2 is laid on top of the Nimbus.

I think the more rigid and less stretch the denim is we feel it's tighter because of how it sits on the body. It's basically less forgiving.

Have you tried the raglan hoodie (non raw edge)? It’s pretty nice

I actually ordered one in forest and ended up returning it. It just fit slimmer than what I wanted. I might try them out again and size up to a L. Is that your go to?

Yeah I like them, but honestly I don’t get much use out of my hoodies these days. I wear my crews more often than my hoodies. I also think they look better under outerwear because you can sort of dress them up.

The Raglan hoodie in L is a pretty similar fit to the OS cropped hoodie in M

I hear you. Crews are def easier for layering. I’ll try out a large next in the raglan.

I don’t believe this is accurate for everyone because my nimbus are definitely skinnier than my coast2. I don’t mind though and wouldn’t mind my coast2 being slimmer.

I was going to say what @97laxlude said. I don’t think the measurements are any slimmer I just think that the denim is a little more thick and has less stretch. So the denim is less forgiving and feels more slim. Which like you, I actually enjoy the feel of. The Nimbus’s stack better around my knees because of it.

selling my new wool stadium jacket in size 3 for below retail. pm me if you're interested.

i might be willing to trade for the same jacket in a size 4, and i'm also looking for the riders jacket in a size 4

the stadium jacket fits me fine when it's unbuttoned but it looks tiny when it's buttoned up
