Despite the picture it is actually dark blue not black.

I can see the body's dark blue, but sleeves certainly look black to me

 

[Benesyed]

will see once it arrives. Idk if black sleeves is a bad thing since i feel that it would let me wear black pants with it more smoothly. Time will tell.

junhashimoto wool shorts

These are pretty similar to a pair of W+H wool shorts that I sold since the fit was too baggy on me. These jun ones are far slimmer fitting. They're from his SS12 collection, so they were still available for 50% off.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it's just not the same... I wish I was better at explaining these sorts of things, but fore me the repettos are much more agressive/abrasive. Kind of in the same way that guys in hakamas or those pleated CdG skirts are.
