wtf? why are they all DR?

judging from these pics alone i like the D&G and Burberry ones but I'm sure they're not that great in person and the price on the D&G one is ridiculous

The MJ probably has the best leather of the bunch, though I don't know if that is the case post-GIBO (or was the STAFF move just for women's ****?)

The DR is apparently in now, gg TOJ.

Yeah when I tried it on I definitely didn't like the leather. It fit me pretty well though.

Question in response to the "J Crew shirts" comment from earlier in the thread. What are you guys usually wearing under your leather jackets? Is it primarily t shirts? That seems like the classic combo (white tee and leather jacket) but I've seen some people rocking button down shirts with their leathers and they looked OK.

Overall, I'm interested in the concept of the jacket as a uniform. A few pages back Kunk was talking about sticking to one designer for a consistent look, and I like that thought.

I think it depends what type of leather jacket you're wearing. If you have a ToJ bomber, a white dress shirt with tie could work but if you have a Julius jut neck or RO high collar intarsia, then I think it has to be strictly tees.

Wrong way to wear Rick Owens...?

t shirts or just knitwear in general I think. With more outre leathers I think it can be helpful to have something more visually interesting underneath it as well.

Can we make a Styleforum Death Pact that no one uses "rock" as a verb unless they're talking about a gentle motion from side to side?

Brutally overdone with stitching details.

Yah, the Nets and Raptors played in London this past week.

I think Drogba wears it good. And so do you RFX45 and many others on this forum as well

It warms my heart to see that everyone knows who Drogba is. He is starting today w/ Torres; I am watching the BBC feed now. I hope that strike partnership gels--it hasn't yet.

Shah, I am pulling for your lot tomorrow.

(although i'm a bit worried)

torres was a terrible buy, only good thing to come out of it was anelka's recent goals. not worth the 50 mil . he said in an interview last year he'd die if he stays in the epl any longer... when didier came on vs united he was holding off up to 3 players at once, what a monster. worst what-if for wenger who had the chance.
