Right. Well, I've read several times that dry cleaning isn't a good option when there are leather inserts, but now i can't find where I saw this. Anyway, always good to have different views and i can't see what else I could do except dry cleaning. Not that I have jacket like this atm, but I have my eyes on one...

I'm not trolling, man. I get along with most of the members here fairly well now, I don't really get why you think I'm trolling. I just find M.A.+ legitimately bizarre; incredibly constructed garments designed to look poorly constructed and sell for ******* insane prices. I mean, it's just really weird. No hate on anyone that loves it.

you'd probably really like them though. most everyone of varying styles ends up liking them when they see them irl and try them on and stuff. pretty cool stuff





someone linked jcrew socks in a "winter socks" thread and was fun just playing jcrew buzzword count. could make a good bingo game out of it prob

They're the socks that put the "cool" in "old school" and they come from the last remaining sock mill in Vermont. This premium all-weather camp sock is traditional in design and craftsmanship, knit from classic ragg marl yarns with bold, simple stripes. The heavier weight pairs perfectly with our rugged men's boots. Cotton/acrylic/nylon/spandex. USA. Machine wash.

We chose this design as it's more contemporary and current. It honors our heritage through the blue box while still taking it forward. Now, given the passionate outpouring from customers that followed, we've decided to engage in the dialogue, take their feedback on board and work together as we move ahead and evolve to the next phase of Gap.
lol they have no ******* clue why they made this logo

^^the design community was pretty aggrivated over the shoddy logo work (I don't even really consider it a logo, just a bad type treatment). now we're just pissed at the idea of crowd sourcing/spec work.

I definitely agree with Uncontrol that they have no idea what's going on with their identity.
