I got a Whitesville hoodie passes the test with flying colors. I absolutely love it

Spoiler: More pics

Ended up snagging the medium and overall decent, but a tad big. Have you tried putting yours in a dryer/if so, did it shrink a lot? I cold washed and line dried it, but was considering throwing it in the machine to shrink it a little more.

These RMC tiger stripe pants are AWESOME. Large is a perfect fit for my true 34”. Love the slimmer silhouette. View attachment 1912745

Nice! After a few washes the green really starts to come out.

I want them to stay this color as long as I can so I will be washing less frequently. I doubt I will wash the jacket unless absolutely necessary.

Makes sense. Happy to share a pic of mine this weekend when I have some time just for reference.

With False Spring 3.0 in effect here in NYC recently, I've gotten to wear my J-100 and A2 a little bit. Definitely tighter than when I purchased them, but they still work (phew).

It's loading up on the main website so I suspect the stockists will get their first shipments in the next few weeks. Educated guess, however, but Lost & Found said as much.

Been wearing a few of my loopwheeled sweats while running. Very breathable and good windbreaking ability..

Anyone ever use Buyee to buy something from japan? Like barnstormer or celluloid?

Not Barnstormer or Celluloid but I have bought some denim from the Clever Webstore (https://clever-id.com/) through Yahoo Japan using Buyee.

i have also used them for several auctions and everything went smoothly.

Here is a longer explanation:

It is pretty straight forward. You win the auction or buy the item. You will receive an email. You will be billed for the original item, a proxy service fee, and domestic shipping from the seller to the proxy.

The proxy service fee depends on the cost of the item for example on a 25 dollar item I paid 3 dollars on a 250 dollar item I paid 18 dollars. There is optional rate fee of 5 dollars to look over your delivery to see what condition it arrived in.

Once the proxy receives your item you will receive another email asking about how you want the item shipped. The standard rate to the east coast is usually around 25-35 dollars via EMS, meaning it arrives within a week.

Ok so I can rest assured it'll all work out.

Incidentally, Anthony just told me to get basic insurance-issued, plastic lenses with basic AR and nothing else.
