I don't know in what inverse world you live in but EMS does not cost the same as Priority and most assuredly not First Class.

i think there's some serious mis-sterotyping between mc and sw&d

It's funny that cropped pants receive (deserved, frankly) ire, but this coming from guys who are a few centimeters away from that territory. If your cut looks like straight tubes, there is no fun to be had in the fabric. And yet people in MC go ga-ga over the "drape" of a suit jacket...
No shimmer, no fun.

Oh wait, y'all wear bow ties and rigid English shoes. Credibility -10

He looks proportional.

Outside of diehard denim online forums, nobody gives a sh*t about your ball-hugging, raw denim, selvaged, fake lumberjack look.


MCers think sw&d people are all super stick skinny, hipstery, follows trends and fashions, while sw&d think MCers all cuff their pants, detest breaks, slim lapels, and are nitpicky about every detail. i think it's the vocal minority that are like that, but there's definitely a huge diversity.

fwiw a lot of ppl in MC know their history and a lot of them also like pant breaks (but prolly not stacks on their pants).

http://www.humanleather.co.uk/index.html

Welcome to [Hu]manLeather. We are specialists in producing exquisite and exclusive products for an extremely discerning clientele. All products are carefully hand-crafted by experienced master craftsmen, with years of experience in handling the finest leather known - human leather.

[Hu]man Leather Products
We only craft the best and most beautiful products out of our unique leather. We have produced bespoke items for some of our clients, but due to the limited size of the lengths that we work with, we are limited to what items we can fashion out of the leather.

[Hu]man Leather Belts - [Hu]man Leather Wallets - [Hu]man Leather Shoes


What is [Hu]man Leather?
Human leather is made from real full thickness human skin. Just like animal leather products, produced from lesser animals, our raw human skin is transformed into the finest grade human leather by using a traditional tanning process. However, human leather is the finest grain leather that is obtainable.
It is free from defects and has the smallest grain size which makes it the smoothest, softest leather on Earth.

Where does it come from?
Human leather is produced from skin sourced from normal everyday people. These people have bequeathed their skin to us prior to their death. There are a few areas of the body, (back and abdomen) that have uninterrupted skin coverage, and are therefore the best for processing into human leather.

Is this illegal?
Not at all. However, this is an expensive business, as the raw material is not cheap to produce or process. We value our donors and we reward their beneficiaries and next of kin very handsomely. In fact, we have had to turn away some potential donors, as we can accept only the highest quality human skin.

Why are your products so expensive?
We cater to a small but highly discerning clientele. They are amongst those lucky few who have everything they could possibly desire. Our supply is restricted and we prefer to keep it that way as we are the only firm in the world that crafts these special products.

I've been hacking at the pile of iced slush blocking my driveway for almost an hour now.
