Even the fitted jacket in worn black denim runs looser? View attachment 2234771
AFAIK model code is the same on this one, and photos in the internet indicate that its the same fit.
here is the video with the modern one, sleeves are somewhat looser than old Hedi's, and armpits are not as small. TBH, Hedi's have odd narrow shoulders, I prefer the modern one.

What's the difference between the L17 oiled calf and heritage calf versions? I'm thinking of thrifting an L17 but don't know which to get

I think the one from 2013 with the thickest leather runs bigger than normal, 2016 runs normal, and other versions run small. This is what I know, might be different, but I suspect 2016 are the most 'standart' TTS fitting, without weird surprises

Thanks. Is the 2013 version more slimmer because of Hedis era? I'm looking for something boxy because I'm not tall and slim

L17 are all only Hedi era. 2013 thick leather version is somehow running big, apparently because of the thick leather, but they are rare, I am not sure its this oiled calf version.

TBH you better get Celine biker, its looser than anything Hedi-era SLP

They look great to me and very well constructed. Maybe slightly more professional looking is the feel I get, but again, would work great with a variety of fits.

Hi i would like know your guys thoughts on these Chelsea boots from Alfred Dunhill and would it blend in well with hedi slimane aesthetic compare to the Saint Lauren wyatt30?

They look nice! Out of interest why go with Dunhill instead of SLP? You can pretty commonly get Wyatt’s brand new on grailed for ~$600. Those boots you’re looking at are double the price!

Well in fact what a really buy is the saint laurent wyatt30 black leather boots I really love the
Silhouette and the shinny leather the problem for me is i might being delusional but it seems like since post 2019 maybe 2020 season the texture of the wyatt boot leather has changed and the texture is not shinny but matte and in my option doesn't appeal as luxurious as the past seasons wyatts

Thinking about buying the celine drugstore in Japan but the drugstore seems too long looks like a clown shoe to me although it has the shinny texture I was looking for so I'm in the dilemma and I'm trying to find alternatives and dunhil caught my eye unfortunately there's no dunhill stores in my country 😂 so I'm still searching for it

I'd be very surprised if you couldn't get a pair of shiny calfskin on Grailed. If you're willing to try 40mm heels you'd probably have more luck! They're just as easy to wear as 30mm in my opinion

Well I am a size 6 in a suede wyatt boot which is the smallest size and although I'm not sure i will have to go size 6 as same size as the suede when i buy the leather wyatt or go half a size up and buy 6.5 it's quite hard to find my size on grailed but fortunately sometimes wyatt goes 500$ to 800$ from sites like nimenneiman marcus or cettire and in terms of size of the heel it doesn't really matter because I'm a full time wheelchair user xp
