No, we just like our joints mad tight

For the Paul Smith Ricards (and other PS shoes) on the Barney's site, are those the UK or US sizes listed?

What do you think of these, and with jeans?

Who sells moderately priced sweaters (maybe v-neck?) that I could wear over a t-shirt and under a heavier jacket?

What is "moderately priced?" Give me a range. Also, what kind of style are you going to wear this with? I'd reccomend something different depending on the look. Preppy? Rocker? What?

Basically something to wear under my peacoat. Preferrably under $100, but $150 if its epic.

Just a plain sweater that fits mediocre for cheap. Jcrew is your best bet in the super cheap range. You can try to find stuff on sale by brands like acne, filippa k, apc, etc... if you wanted. You can sometimes pick up solid deals on yoox.com around this time and they'll be going to next level of sales eventually. Margiela, raf simons, and jil sander all have nice knitwear. For cheaper stuff you can check revolve.com's meany brands and sort by sweaters and use the 15% off code

I'm looking for a suit with the following features, that can be bought online (from a e-store or used): - Slim fit all-around - Grey - Short jacket - 34 jacket (XS), 30 or 31 pants - Budget: up to 900$ - New or used, I don't care It seems impossible to find a 34-sized jacket here in Montreal. I would've more than happy to order a TaT suit from Jason, but the problem is that I need it for a New Year's Eve party and he doesn't take any more orders before Jan 1st (based on what's written on his site). Any ideas/links?

Have you tried Yoox? Gilt?

 

[PinkPantser]

Is it even possible to get a suit that small with only a 3 or 4 inch drop?

Thanks for the quick answer Whodini.

Yoox only has 1 suit in 34 and it's not what I'm looking for.
Gilt doesn't ship to Canada.
The search engine doesn't work with '34S' (I guess it's too short of a word).
E-bay doesn't have anything interesting.

But I think I found something.. Jason started a thread about Jump The Gun clothing and they happen to make suits that are exactly what I'm looking for. I just e-mailed them to get more info about sizing. My three options are:

http://www.jumpthegun.co.uk/product/..._of_Wales_suit
http://www.jumpthegun.co.uk/product/JTG_Grey_POW_suit

I have a slight preference for the Mohair one but I was wondering what's special about Mohair as a fabric? Is it lighter/heavier? Stretchier? I'm pretty much clueless.

 

[whodini]

The mohair looks the best, personally, but I'll have Jas come in and weigh his opinion.

 

[Adam24]

Great! Thanks.

Hey, I have a question about the sizing of the AA flex fleece hoodies. If I'm 5'11" with a chest size around 31-32" and want a snug fit without the sweatshirt fitting too short, should I get a flex in small or medium? The Cali Fleece small is just a little short and a tad narrow around the waist.
