They are RiRi's. Not sure who else uses them on hoodies... LW doesn't for sure, they use YKK. I saw some hoodies at Zara with zippers that look like those on the Spruce (but they are not RiRi's, just look almost the same if you don't look at them closely or feel them)...

I have both the XS and S LW classic hoodies, if you're like 36" in the chest, the XS one should be fine. I haven't washed them though and I'm not sure if they shrink or not.

Thanks so much for your help Ayn, that's exactly what I was looking for. If it wouldn't be too difficult for you to measure across the chest of both of those hoodies, that would be a great resource, and I think it would help other members of the forum too.

here's LW's sizing chart, I placed my order based on these measurements and they were very accurate: http://www.loopwheeler.co.jp/store/size_pop.html

All Acne hoodies use Riri zippers, just FYI.

CYC has a website (don't remember the URL) as does Wings & Horns www.wingsandhorns.com . However, both are just splash pages.

Lots of Japanese sites have stuff online. However, in the States, I think that when Peasant (to be at www.peasantonline.com ) goes online, it will be the first stockist with W+H and Wings & Horns online, AFAIK.

I posted in the Buying/Selling Section, but thought it could be helpful here too:

Sorry to do this to anyone creeping on these items, but I want someone to pick them up before I end up getting them. Found two loopwheeler sweaters on ebay, both large, one grey and one marine.

Grey:

Spotted this on eBay this morning. Not going to buy it, so maybe it'll be good for you, if you're a medium:

Again, I apologize for any creepers on this one.

hey, love those ones you're selling. Trouble is Im an XL, or probably an XXL actually due to small Japanese sizing I would imagine.

Maybe I will save for the Loopwheeler one. Is it true they also "make to measure" or did I imagine that....?
