MAC in SF picked up some of these as well, including the chambray pants and the plaid short sleeve shirt.
Buyers seem to like KZO a lot this season, considering both MAC and Bloomie's SF just picked them up.

Tonio: I guess the concern is about the weight (of the metal buttons) and the way they pull on an open collar. I haven't seen those shirts in person and I almost want to order one just to check it out. Based on the 'Rust' shirt and the description of those, I have a feeling the fabric is really nice and those buttons do look lightweight as far as metal buttons go. If you're considering the same shirts, check the oki ni pictures because they seem to highlight some of the details missed in the photos from the other sites.

Got the Reactor shawl cardi in grey from Epaulet today. I'll admit I didn't pay any attention to it when the collection first dropped, but now that I have it it's growing on me real quick.

I need a break from buying clothes, though. My wallet hates me.

KZO gets no love on here, already buried on page 2.

That cardi looks badass, nice pickup. Mike's detailed pictures really showed the great hand.

Any fit pics? If not, how did you size it and what are your thoughts on it (fit, weight, etc.).

Haters, all of them.

No fit pics yet--I'd have to get hold of a camera again. I went with a Small. It's a bit slouchy on me, but I had gathered it would be from pictures. It's refreshing, actually, to change fit up a bit (paging ARW). Mike and I talked about the unique construction in the shoulders, which apparently makes it a lot more forgiving in terms of fit. Kind of hard to explain without looking at old messages, which I'm too lazy to do right now. As for weight, it's fairly light, but it's still nicely warm. And it looks great hanging open over a heathered tee.

I kinda wish I had the money to go full-on KZO + 45rpm.

Truth. BTW, Jason, sorry I never made it out to your store last week. I just couldn't get away from my conference. :-/

I say we keep bumping to get that J.Crew thread to page 2 already. Now buy whatever you were thinking about and post in this thread. It is written!

I'm all over that shirt if its still around in my size when I'm ready to pull the trigger. I love that colorway and details and fabric seem legit.

What's your worry on pulling the trigger or is it just not high on the priority list?

Oh and is that Mana as in the mexican rock band?

It's not high on priority and I've been lusting since I seen the interview with Joel so many months ago. And thats Mana as in Mana the visual kei icon.
