I saw this DBF shirt on Y!JP - would you have more information on it? I couldn't find it in the look books on your website.
Which season was it from and what was the dye treatment?

Hello, this must be a creation of someone who dyed one of our shirts! We have never created this item, so unfortunately you will not be able to buy it anywhere. Best, Nicolas!

I picked up a size 46 grandad coat (smallest I could find). It really is a great coat in person. Do you guys think I’d be better off holding out for a size 44? I’m 5’5” on a good day.

Yeah I would maybe size down. Looks a bit wide over the chest, but maybe it’s different when closed. Is it much oversized? I’m going for the same one, usually 50 in DBF jackets. Still it’s supposed to be oversized.

Is anybody here interested in the dark brown corduroy shirt?
Size XL. Slim fit (more like a Large imo).
It’s brand new with tags.
Looking for $120 shipped worldwide.

Does the seam that runs down the sleeve line up with the seam down the side of the shirt at the underarm (as if it’s one continuous seam) or is there an offset between them at the sleeve joint?
