@FrankCowperwood @robinsongreen68
Thanks :)
I like it too. I just fall back on the same fit every time I wear it. Which I don’t this is necessarily bad but I’d like to wear it in some other ways.

unrelated; I just got the carbon pleated string pants and they’re pretty nice.
The fabric is great. Very similar to the light cotton sateen from a few seasons ago on the petrol fabric he did. Super light weight, they’ll be perfect for summer all the way to 30°/95°
These are more true to size than the last few string pants iteration. I got my regular 50 and they fit perfect.
I put them on with what I was wearing (old “heavy dry sweatshirt” and current hi tops) to see if I got the right size but will get a better pic in daylight. My turquoise viscose zip shirt is also on the way.

Nice dude!

I was a big fan of that older petrol fabric!

Man the petrol stuff was so good. I mis sized on the elasticated pants and then never found the 52s until somebody had them on Grailed, so I bought them, and then they refunded me and said they spilled red wine on them while they were packing them up ?

I had those pants! They were a 50 though and never fit well. 52s would have been perfect!

Just got around to looking at the latest webstore releases, and the "light blousons" look great. Crazy price tag on them, but I think I'm going to talk myself into one.

They're pretty good, I just received the turquiose viscose blend one yesterday. I went true to size and it fits well. I think i like the beige grey wool/polly the best so I may end up with two of them.

Hola, been craving these Chinese slippers for a while now. What’s your personal opinion/experience on them?

Didn't we talk about this a few weeks ago?
Maybe that was somebody else.

Yeah I really like the chinese slippers. I wear them quite a bit.
they fit snug but true. If you're a half size then go up, especially if you want to wear thick socks.

Yes we talked about a few weeks ago, but I can’t keep them out of my head, so I was looking for opinions :)

Oh ok. I like them a lot, but I know a lot of people don't.
But if there is something specific that you want to know then I can try and help more.

Once I’ve tried them and I felt snug, wondering how the leather stretches. And on the other side, I‘ ve seen a few pictures once worn out they had the toe curling upwards

Nah I still don’t have any insider connection. I have no idea about a jumpsuit. Fwiw Deveaux and Jil both have good jumpsuits this season and I always like the JJVE ones.
