Recent purchases - Part II

[Synthese]

My only recent clothing purchase is an Arcteryx Atom down hoodie. Thank you REI. Next stop, TNF.

The Atom is an amazing piece! Super versatile and comfortable.

It's not down though, it's a high end synthetic called Coreloft which is way more breathable than down

Picked this off an auction. "Plaster" color means "white" in Julius speak?

In my limited experience its like a really light granite colour. Julius does alot of creams, off-whites, and various shades of grey. Don't know if ive ever seen stark white pants from him before.

Picked up black Rick Owens astaire pants in wool. I am surprised how much I like them. Very high waist, drop crotch, full fit down through thigh then ankle taper. Might get another color as well.

should I keep or sell and try to get the white ones instead of off-white?

 

[Synthese]

my answer depends on what size u need in off white

44... was asking if I should go for the white white ones instead, though I guess these look dirtier/starving artisty which is cool

are you flipping yours?

 

[Synthese]

Yes. They are too small for my mutant feet.

Been looking at this one. 
How do you like it?

Suitable for non-hike/out-in-the-wild wear as well?

I´ll let you know when I get it (hopefully next week, backwards buying from Nitty and sending to Zürich...), but I think it will be ok for around the town wear as well, like walking to work in the rain.. But im not a huge fan of the techy look, so who knows.

Alright. Yeah, the purpose would be for rainy days and I have a fair bit of techy stuff.
