Just wanted to share a picture of my beloved denim jacket.

I've been thinking about getting the black d02s . Most of my jeans are cheap, $50-200 range. Is there noticeable difference in quality of Saint Laurent denim? I am not concerned about fit of cheap denim since I alter then anyways. Thanks!
The 2016 and prior raw black was a very lightly coated raw black denim. I've heard the 2017 models with the new placement of the rivets on the front pockets and the lack of the back panel/gusset(?) are a traditional raw denim. I haven't handled the new ones so I can't comment, but the older ones are very different than traditional raw denim and are great

Ive got this pair-was my first designer purchase, had them for 3 years now. I'm getting them resoled otherwise I'd post a pic but this is what they looked like new.

Damn making me so jealous! Any pics for a before re-sole so we can document the lifespan of the boot? How often did you wear it? Are you planning to get full re-sole or a half-sole resole?

Hey guys, sorry to bring up an old topic but I was wondering the exact same thing and came across these posts in my search. Do you guys remember which of the two Saks colors corresponds to the older (darker) cigaro color?

The light brown end up being light sigaro.

Hi guys! I'm looking to pick up a SL Chesterfield coat. What are your thoughts on the FW2015 Belted Chesterfield? Anyone know how much it retailed for? Can't find any info on it so anything helps. What would be a good price for it?

Ahh never crossed my mind to take a detailed before pic, but I do have a recent pic of them, not very good quality.

I used to wear them 5 times a week for a couple years and beat the hell out them but now not as much. Regularly conditioned and polished the uppers, used tissue paper & shoetrees in between wears and in the pic, that's why they don't look so worn.

Also opted for a full resole with a JR leather sole since that's what my cobbler had, I'm excited to get them back :bounce2:

Is that the cotton/tencel blend? Looks great. I've never had a nashville shirt, does it differ in fit compared to regular shirts? Sort of how western shirts seem to run 1 size small.

Yes it is that blend, i went true but if you want it a bit oversized you should size up cause this is pretty slim fitting.

Always great to see OG 2013 footwear

So a lot of people fear resoling cemented footwear. When you get them back, could you ask your cobbler what's the process like in maintaining the shape of the upper once the sole is removed, when resoling cemented footwear?

View attachment 824174 View attachment 824175 Just got the light tan Chelseas from the sale at neiman Marcus. It's the new sigaro, so that lighter color. It's actually a lot nice than I was expecting, still wish it was the OG sigaro though

Those look pretty nice, although i agree the darker sigaro is really sweet. I received mine as well a couple of days ago. Thanks needhelp for the heads up on the NM sale.
