You've gotten my email from last night. I'll send payment later today, after my Paypal starts working again.

For the mystified, I believe that the Tigers will be in the old Spruce Tiger Fleece material, but on the W+H body. That's from the source.

So they're going to have the baggy arms from the w+h classic fit fall06? That's too bad, i was hoping for a slim fit or spruce classic fit style. Are the spring ones different materials? I remember reading that they were somewhere. Terry cloth or something like that.

That's what I've heard.

The regular spring hoodies are heavy french terry. Considerably lighter than the tiger and winter fleeces.

Are there any hoodies this season with contrasting hoods vs bodies? Like tiger fleece navy/black with white hood?

See, that's what I thought at the beginning, but check out the fit on the models at United Arrows (see www.zozo.jp, and go to the United Arrows site, and look up the sale Cut & Sew). Now, all the W+H and Spruce hoodies I own fit considerably closer than that, but the fit on those is terrific. Now, those are really small guys wearing slim fits (apparently, xs is the most ordered size in Japan), so I figured that a (new body) W+H classic would have a similar fit on a slim, but regularly sized guy like me.

These are the ones that Steven Alan has right now, with the shorter cuffs and the pockets that overlap?

Yup.

Sort of like that. New cut for spring.

noobish question: are these hoodies fleece lined?

So you're saying on a 6ft. 165 lb guy who is relatively slim(not skinny), it would still fit slim on the body and arms? I mainly remember hearing baggy arms as a problem on last season's classic fit. The united arrows stuff fits well, but yea, i can imagine they're tiny people. I know they have slim and superslim now too and i was wondering if the classic and slim fit were going to be the same as last year with that addition to the lineup. If florida wasn't a fashion wasteland above miami, i'd try to try something on.

Well, I tried on the new Classic fit, and the fit was closer to the fit on the United Arrows fit than when I wear the the slim or the old classic - both of those fit considerably closer to my body than shown on those models. Different looks, both nice, imo. BTWm the red/natural tiger on that site looks awesome on that site, btw. People, that is how you wear the kelly or red tiger fleeces, with a black tee, and jeans in an tight, flat weave, and super dark color with contrast stitching. That way, the color of the hoodie and the heathered visual texture stands out, with only the contrast stitching of the jeans to complement it. Super slubby or structure denim would just not look as good. So, APCs, SPURR (especially), good. PBJs, not so great.

One thing I don't quite understand is why people buy Classic Fit hoodies (which we've inclined and patterned after college/sports/relaxed garments) when what they seem to be wanting is a slimmer, body-fitting fit.

I'm planning to take some pictures of myself in a few days to illustrate the differences in fit between Classic, Slim and Super Slim, and I look forward to hearing your feedback.

 

[chronoaug]

Yea, i'm still kicking myself for not getting to the zozo w+h slim fit grey pinstripe deal. They have to pop up eventually.

I was set to buy a f/w hoodie, but i want to try on and feel the material/thickness of the s/s ones first.

I regularly wear mine with a black or khaki tee, black RB6. Looks good to me.
