I really like a lot of Geller's stuff but the quality is just terrible. I think I'm about ready to give up on the brand.

BlackBird emailed me to see if I wanted measurements on items :eek:

That's nice of them.

Don't like any of the RG stuff though it seems to have a strong following. Reason?

I just inquired about those trousers so let's see if BlackBird follow through. Great service on their part in general.

really? i have stuff I beat the crap out of, never had any problems.


Maybe I'm just having bad luck but the last 4 pieces I've bought were falling apart after only a few months. (dip dyed sweater, flight pants, and two pairs of denim)

I have to agree, I have this bomber and have worn it a ton. It's my only Geller piece and because of it, I've always tried to buy more Geller (no luck).

There's so many nice little details about the bomber, and afaik it's really well made. Holding up well.

Nice

I just picked them up. 100% tencel
What are they called? Flight pants?

I remember when people were raving about them last year? They are a staple of RG it seems


Are they different than these? Price difference is $100+ but also 100% tencel

I think I am getting the flight pants wrong as the Forward seem to have a wider hem

They are tencel? Oh good, I was told they were cotton but I think that person was away from the store at the time so hopefully they were mixed up.

They are called Lounge Pants this season. Really don't understand the price difference, but I guess they are cashing in since they sold so well last season. I knew I should have bought the blue ones from Cave Osaka :brick:

They said they also got Navy Andreas trousers, so I guess that means they are more like the FW11 Andreas than the SS12 Andreas. But they only got those in 46 and up

I got the lounge pants, the gradient sweater, and the drippy looking dip tee

Cool

here are the description from the tag for new release:
Body of the pant is 100% Tencel, which is similar to rayon in feel and look but it's washable. Very cool fabric.
The elastic bands are 95% Cotton, 5% Polyurethane
