And indeed there will be time
To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”
Time to turn back and descend the stair,
With a bald spot in the middle of my hair—
(They will say: “How his hair is growing thin!”)
My morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin,
My necktie rich and modest, but asserted by a simple pin—

I have lots of shirts, that I don't wear. When I see them, I think that will suit me but I never find time or an occasion to wear them.

inb4 "buy ToJ instead" :laugh: (which might only come in suede, now that I think about it)

Anyhows, I like it. I'd say go for it (assuming you know whether it's decent leather and construction and all that...I've never handled Supreme before).

I've been looking for a denim jacket for this spring and have narrowed it down to 2, but I can't decide. This is a battle of the denim jackets, any input is welcome.
Concerns: I don't know how I feel yet about the zipper closure on the APC instead of buttons for a denim jacket, but the OL one looks less substantial and resembles a more of a shirt while the APC is for sure a jacket. But the OL jacket looks more classic too! Ah! I cant decide -_-

Pocket placement is weird on OL, it's what turned me off. But might be a selling point for you? Zipper is unacceptable on APC too. Sorry man

Thanks for the feedback, yeah, the APC zipper was not flying with me either, thanks for the input tween. I'll go with the OL as I kind of like the pocket placement. Its basically the same pocket placement as APC did in a past spring season.

I like the color and the sheen but the style of the shirt isn't right for that, it would really benefit from being longer (long shirts 2012 !) and with a different collar configuration maybe, also no chest pockets.

I think I'll pass on that one.
