Schiesser underwear
2 pairs black boxer briefs

Sidenote: I really hate Opening Ceremony

I hate OC as well... I will only go there for the underwear....

They have Schiesser at Opening Ceremony?
I'll have to hit that soon...

So is the buzz about Schiesser deserved?
What exactly makes them so amazing? In other words, do I now have to get more hammocks for my banana, or can I just stick with my CK Pima cottons?

For the boxer briefs:
* They're form fitting.
* They have a nice and sturdy waistband.
* The cotton used seems like a better variety than what's used in my stuff from 2xist, CK, Jockey, Diesel, etc., and it doesn't loose it's shape.

The MoP buttons that they put on one of the versions is also a nice touch. It's too soon for me tell if they hold up well in the long run though, but so far I've been very happy with them. Their shirts and henley's also look great and are on my shopping list.

When I went there for the first time last year I didn't know there was a bottom floor. I was like "Why do people like this place?? It has one rack of clothing!"

Who doesn't like paying $65 for a garment that someone may not see the day you wear it?

Are they $65 at Opening Ceremony? I wonder if they take phone orders...

Well I still do not understand why people like that place. Its like an overstuffed closet...way too much on the racks. The house brand stuff is garbage. It all just feels very cheaply made...

It needs to be more organized...I dont know how you can find something in there until you look at every ******* thing and I dont really have the nerve to do that in a store like that..

I didn't like the fact that I thought I was going from one men's clothing rack to the next when it was actually women's. M, M, W, M, M wtf?
