Well my theory was right. Whatever the model wears go two sizes up. Smh the hood on the spruce hoodie is way smaller than normal. I’m 1-4 on BF.

I can fit the hoodie but Wanted if a little looser. I guess I got a surplus hoodie in XL and herringbone cargos in a L for sale.

Got my yuji in today, sized up one from my previous Blackmeans. It’s a nice jacket, but it’s really stiff, I actually prefer the standard Blackmeans leather over this washed one. Makes me wish I got my previous one, one size up. ??‍♂️

You might have liked the Roku better. iirc it had a softer feel due to the wash but the leather was really distressed with cracking throughout. It wasn’t as snug of a fit either.

Yes, I think is dropping in the next few weeks

Holy goddddd this hoodie is beautiful

New-In. JE Bozeman Shorts, University Haze Tee (I sized down to a Small).. When I ordered this Bozeman shorts from the Flash Sale, I was concerned that the Bozeman shorts would be too long for this 5’4” shorty, and it was a relief that fit and length was just PERFECT.. Haze (Dusty Mauve) is one really cool color that JE made to date.

BF Flash Sales have arrived.. JE Icons in Black, White and Beige. Haze University Tee, Pearl Cords BBall Shorts and Bozeman Shorts

@MIKE_JE Considering the amount of feedback regarding your signature double layer detail on your denim, will you be putting it back on in the future? Why fix what ain't broke...

Something tells me this change has more to do with where they are being produced or cutting costs than an artistic choice. Why would they go back and remove them from carbons unless it’s an efficiency move, just doesn’t make sense.

If I recall correctly I brought this up during BF week after I received my Plumas and @MIKE_JE basically said that they didn’t think it was a big deal and didn’t think it was something people really cared about, so they removed them.

But obviously I would think it’s bigger than that and probably has to deal with what you said, production or costs.

@KyleKelley agree with you 100%. I posted a similar personal observation a while back too. Just checking if they're going to listen to the people on this one lol.

Of course there's no "ill intent" removing the detail when their intent is to save $. And when Mike confirmed they have not completely switched from Riri zippers, it's easy to point out that they only kept them on their mainline items which don't go on steep discounts. So far they're using YKK on their seasonal pieces because they figured out that they would end up selling them at highly discounted prices (even more from their stockists). Probably why we're seeing the price increases too

Just got home after being away for a bit and finally opened up my JE packages.

camo crew is so small my wife wouldn’t even wear the size Medium. The wash is awesome AF though

Tees are all Uni, BF colors are sick. LA sweats are GOAT (plz release these in literally all colors), probably would have gone with Medium if I looked at size chart. But it’s coo

Sorry but socks are a joke for the price.

looks dope, how’d you size on the bozeman shorts? need a belt or no?

Thank You. I sized TTS, size 30. I wear 30 on all my JEs.. This one doesn't require a belt. Fit's just right.

corpus and skittles sweater came in. quickly threw them on to get a pic. sized down to 29 on corpus and was expecting to have them too big from the comments, but they actually fit. my goal was to have the waist more fitted since I'm a 29 tts, but they fit similar to my cast 2 30 size. waist is a bit loose, but thighs and calf fitted. def couldn't go down to 28. I thought they would be darker, but next to jet they look more washed color. also they're pretty stiff. thinking of keeping them now since sizing isn't an issue.

skittles sweater, like the beanie, is super soft. went with my JE tts, chest fits a bit OS. unique piece, but have to see how much wear it'll get out of my current rotation.

pluma update: been wearing them around the apt for a day, loosened up a bit, but not nearly as much as my other cast 2s. either way, it's good enough for me so it'll be a keeper.

Sweater is fire, interesting on the sizing on your Cast 1’s. I typically buy JE Cast 2 in 30 or 31 if I want it looser and I purchased 28 in Cast 1, I could easily button the jeans and from the thigh down it fit more like a 30 Cast 2. If I went up to 29 it would’ve been pretty loose.

I guess it depends on the fit you want, but those look great! And it’s nice to hear someone’s take on the Corpus since I seriously couldn’t tell much of a difference with the Onyx and Corpus when it came to the eye test.

I think a 28 would have been perfect waist wise, but pulling them up I'd hit a blocker with my thighs & hips. my waist is smaller compared to those two. it may be a bit hard to tell, but thighs and calf are pretty fitted (I think it's more noticeable in the calf). overall it works and since after ~30wears it should open up. my only concern there is the waist becoming too wide since its already loose to begin with. I need to check back on my heavily worn cast 2's and see how much those opened up to see if these will be manageable.
