Would like it to be made in Italy and have to pay more for it?

Denim work jacket.

Too medium blue? I promise not to wear it with CPs.

That is one of the worst photos I have ever seen of a product. Can barely make out the details.

Winn Perry, a neat store out of Portland. Their Mjolk inventory is on sale right now for a good price, though they already sold out of my size: http://winnperry.blogspot.com/2008/1...salemjolk.html

They've got a lot of other nice stuff and I'll be ordering a few things later this week.

Yeah, they seem pretty cool. I've been emailing back and forth with a guy there named Jordan who's been helpful.

Yeah, I probably would have been a large. This rakuten shop has some measurements for a dozen pieces or so: http://item.rakuten.co.jp/drjpz/c/0000000181/

Thanks, i wish i wasn't so afraid of rakuten. Good stuff on some of those sites. Vashin- One of those swedish/scandanavian brands. Kinda like julia hederus, 5th ave shoe repair, or a more tamed color pallete henrik vibskov. A bit more eccentric styling wise than the basic brands like filippak/acne/tigerofsweden/whyred. I've liked what i've seen from them the past few seasons but can never find consistent stockists. I have some decent sites with similar brands i'll have to post one of these days. PM me and when i'm back on my laptop with my bookmarks i'll link you http://fashionindie.com/mjolk-aw08/
