Looks like the other Canadian craft+culture publication that also begins with "I"

Yea, that's what I thought when I saw it. Not complaining though cause I liked that mag.

I never thought I would say this, but I kinda miss those daily emails from Four Pins. I would not read them everyday, but had a few laughs when I did.

I really liked that site.

Jon Moy is now writing for Highsnobiety. Jeff Carvalho and Jian DeLeon also have a pretty good podcast over there (assuming you like the kind of streetwear/ fashion topics they cover).

wtf the NR Single Breasted was like 599 Euro ~ 660 USD last time I checked now it went up to $760

 

[Auximenes]

Same fabric ?

 

[TheObserver]

$760 is the 'lightweight' spring fabric, also the cheapest. The mixed navy that I was interested in went up to $847. Originally it was 599 Euro, 20% VAT off would bring it down a bit more than $500. The price increase is ridiculous.

I think its due to the norwegian krone has dropped with almost 20% over the last 18 months.

 

[badeggcat]

Shouldn't that make it cheaper? Unless it's made or sourced from somewhere else.

 

[Find Finn]

They have to buy buttons, fabrics etc. etc. else where, which makes them more expensive.

 

[Melbush]

Has anyone ever heard of the brand Nostra Santissima and can comment on it?

 

[Biggskip]

This still isn't right as it should all balance out in the end, provided the krone fell in proportionate value to all currencies

I think the prices went up because they're now more well known and demand has gone up (see: NMWA).

 

[Find Finn]

Th most likely scenario is a combination of the two, but it's still big increase.
