Got that cowhide messenger bag to replace the canvas one I lost and a pair of dirty white roo derbies coming in from IS.

For A/W '14 I ordered up another pair of derbies in wolf fish and boots in needle punched python. I'd considered the Devoa ankle boots, but ended up passing.


Mind sharing where you're seeing the AW14 collection for IS?

 I agree that titanium elements incorporated into jackets and blazers are kinda over the top, but they make the boots look badass.


i think ccp does it low-key enough that i don't find it to "gimmicky" or over the top. But then again i also like the fold over boots. U sole boots not so much

quite strange for me, but I'd go for this tornadoes too. Some old Christian fits come to mind, where that kind of weirdos was amazingly balanced with classic ccp suit. 


I agree Tornado would be the best go to. If i could i would have several tornados in different leathers such as bison and kangaroo.

anyone interested in some Carpes (sz41)? I'm thinking of listing these in a few days- worn around the house a few times; they are 99.9% new- includes box/bag & spare lace.

How does that model cdiem fit? If I'm in between sizes could I afford to size down?

For those with japanese sized feet, bluemerle has a 50% off sale on wjk s23m clones in black and black/brown: http://www.bluemerle.co.jp/shopping/index.html
Pretty much cheapest I've seen these go for new.

I recall someone said the wjk and original carpe have slightly different shapes near the toe? Can someone confirm/add to this? I can't really tell from just photos; the photo angle affects my judgement too much

Here's my pair if it helps any. Toebox is wider than those product pics suggest, but that's about all I noticed.





(Incidentally this pair is a 42 and I suspect a touch big on me, but it's probably not worth the effort/risk to try trading down...)
