There's a ton of really good Geller on Mercari right now. If you're small, the prices are ridiculously low.

Also, I think I'm going to sell my Geller x American Rag CIE linen coat in a size 46. Color is a kind of purple-navy, and the fabric is fantastic. It has some wear on it, but nothing super noticeable. Figured I'd ask here before putting it on Grailed or anything. Asking $200, but that price is probably somewhat flexible. DM me if you're interested.

Any stockists left in Japan?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see how RG can be selling close to enough volume to keep a label running with just the stockists listed on his website (not counting the Lululemon stuff).
I don’t think he does it for the money.

Olive Oiled Coat Story,
Pre ordered this Fw17 oiled coat from NMWA after attending the runway show. I was pretty broke at the time so it was a big purchase. No stores picked the oiled version up and so far as I know Robert has the only other one besides the show samples. About a year after that I started taking a medication that was a complete mess and for some delightful reason a side effect was me selling a bunch of things I really loved. Got that nonsense sorted out and started feeling like myself again, at the same time I realized what I had done. I tracked down the guy I sold it to, and after a few weeks of negotiating its back in my possession. So all is right in my little corner of the world.

I debated between this coat and the shiny pants, luckily this past month I ran into one of the show samples.

I don't know how this show ranks with everyone else, but my back story makes it number one to me.

tbh @WBaker that's the best fit i've seen from you. Good ****, glad you're doing better.
btw, how do you tie that belt like that? i saw ssense did a loop to make it hang straight down instead of off to the side.

Thanks @ghel! There were a couple months there where I was posting fits that were so completely out of character. Hard to look back at. Nice to be myself again and comforting to know the things I wear reflect who l am inside.

@ghel I actually had to ask during the last sample sale how to tie the Lukas belt. Figured I might as well post a quick pic set on how these classic Geller belts are meant to be done up:

The slant in the second slot keeps the belt from going straight up and down. I slide the "knot" to the left until it's up against a belt loop, as it doesn't look good to me centered.

Great story! I have this coat too, as well as the matching high-waisted pants in the same material. Be sure to store it hanging otherwise any wrinkles on the material could be permanent!

Some stuff up on MAAS & Stacks (what else are we missing?)

They have the dyed cotton coat and the dotted short-sleeved shirt;

I also got the t-shirt, travel pant & night shirt last week. T-shirt is quite short for anyone thinking of ordering.
