Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

[Zeemon]

actually all other balmain items suck

Notwitit you got a real beautiful body but you wanting to take in the body or even considering altering the RG is a real awful idea. And shame on you people for supporting him. Fwiw I am viewing this in he iphone but all angles look fine even with your tight jeans.

May have seen in another thread where I said I wasn't totally happy with a vintage Schott pickup. If I were only going to keep one of these two jackets, which ought it be?

 

[sipang]

2nd one.


What's that crazy talk about tapering a sweatshirt, I'm with toast on this one.

 

[dfagdfsh]

is th efirst norse projects? if so you PM me about it

 

[shoreman1782]

No, they're both Schott--1st from the Perfecto line, 2nd vtg (milsurp?). Teger the first is a M and would prob fit you better than it fits me--PM ME if interested

 

[notwithit]

Sorry, I was kinda trolling with that one, too. I actually just ordered it so I could handle it in person, seeing as how it's one of the most inexplicably SF-hyped items of all time. It's going back to Barney's tomorrow.

Seriously, though, I don't see a problem with altering a sweatshirt. It's not like it has crazy overlock stitching or anything; it's just a simple cut-and-sew. I don't really buy into the argument of keeping with a designer's "vision" with something this basic.

edit: shore, I think both of those look good.

Early Christmas present for myself?

Need some opinions on which pair of deep indigo jeans to get. Torn between 3Sixteen ST-120, Momotaro x Blue Owl BOM003 Deep Indigo, BOM001 Midnight Warrior, Momotaro 0702 "Deep Indigo", or Momotaro ER007-2B "Grand Indigo." Never owned unsanforized denim before so I'm a bit wary of the Blue Owl collabs. Here are links to the jeans:

Momotaro Grand Indigo

Currently leaning towards the Momotaro Grand Indigo or Deep Indigo, but would welcome any input you guys can provide.

The second bomber jacket is a keeper, no doubt!

 

[Caveat]

When I go out I do a lot of walking on choppy cobblestone streets and dress shoes aren't really the greatest for that. Do these soles kill these or not? These are Bottega Veneta but I'd be open to something similar in another brand.

Ol just released a boot on wedge sole. Could also get some McNairys or black Yuketens dress hunt boots

Caveat those shoes are fine, sole included

It really depends on you pair it with your outfit though. Looks to have a nice shape

I don't like any of stevent's suggestions.

 

[Caveat]

Thanks Steven but I've got plenty of boots. I'm looking for a derby or something I can dress up.

GT- Yeah, that is my question. How dressy could I get with those soles? I'm seeing these soles a lot, like in Jil Sander's formal shoes. so what's the verdict on this? Obviously they are intended for formal attire, but that doesn't mean it will look good.

 

[conceptionist]

Those BVs look great, imo.
Sole does not look out of place.

I think you can wear them casually too.
