cheap, simple, and slim, tapered cuts, might try out the skinny blacks or the green cast tapered

Here is some sizing.

http://sevennewyork.com/designers/th...tyeLywlKhbo%3D

Tapered 2" vanity sized, straight 3", skinny 1" with elastene.

Couldn't resist, got greencast in 30 for a tts fit.


Quoted this all for reference. I got these today. This sz 30 has a 31 waist, so they were less vanity sized than I expected. I really wanted something TTS and not deal with stretch for once. The legs are slimmer than Revolve would have you think, as well (nothing new there). Closer to a 6.5" leg opening and maybe a 7.5" knee. Definitely not an 8" knee. I have found I really need an 8" knee or the entire leg becomes too fitted for freedom of movement.

i ordered the black skinnys in 31, theyre going back, fit fine in the waist, not working at all in the thighs, would def need to size up in this cut.

hows the denim on the "rigids"? might try out the greencasts

I chatted with a rep online to ask about the sizing, she said the first number is indeed the US size. well guess what, the ************* was wrong as I assumed.

The numbers to the right of the slash are the italian sizing on the articles themselves. which means they were actually a US 42 and US 44.

That prorsum peacoat you are looking at is labeled 38/54 which means its actually a US 44 (54 - 10 = 44).



you might mistake him with JD_May.

Well If I ever have enough money to purchase prorsum stuff, i'll try it on in person at bloomie's.

While that is pretty cool, I wish less people were jumping on daft-punk's dick, the guys' are alright at what they do but I see **** like this like every fortnight, they don't deserve this much publicity.

They were hot back with Discovery, but I haven't paid too much attention to them since. They had jumpsuits designed by Hedi though, which is pretty badass

Jumping on Daft Punk's dick? Dudes have been big for over a decade now. They're not exactly new comers to the game.

daft punks the **** man. they deserve the publicity if only for getting that many people into a genre... i think its sweet how they have this mystique surrounding them that they built up too, thatd be such a fun thing to do. write your own legend...

Actually now that I think about it, it's less the publicity and more the fanaticism, all the hype surrounding those damn helmets and claims that daft-punk is the 'best ever' electro band, I feel like screaming "ok great, we get it, you like daft punk", but I don't know, maybe I'm just projecting, meh.

Lol, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't be doing it exactly like that, but different pieces/patterns and better fitting tops.

Also, smh, Danner Japan's offerings are way better than the US. -_-
