+1. They are just horrible. No idea why there was any love for them at all.

Many people on this forum are just so used to following the leader, theyll approve or dissapprove of something based soley on the veteran posters approval/dissaproval. Makes sense when you consider the large portion of members who come here for guidance have virtually no fashion sense.

Are these / is the DR '11 calf or lamp leather?

I'm sure most people had a look of complete confusion when they read those posts about the contrasting leather quilting. It's a small minority, but a vocal one; like those guys who want a ToJ suit.

Nothing wrong with a couple of those contrast quilts, they could look extremely dope in the right context (futuristic sci-fi kind of fit). Think some kind of sci-fi movie uniform, the white w/black and red w/black would look crazy good in that context. You can almost imagine an entire movie based on those jackets alone (still trying to work out whether the protagonist would wear it or if it would be the uniform of the evil drone guys).

It's just something you couldn't wear with everyday clothes, that's all, so I can understand why Drew wouldn't want to offer it. You can't pair that **** with your red wings and workwear denim is what I'm getting at. *insert some kind of comment here about it being perfect of Synthese's aesthetic*

Going to have to back the calls about the white quilted BCDR, that looks amazing. Curious to know how accurate the photoshop colour is. I know Drew's already spoken about the accuracy of the colours over internet and described the colour of the white itself (slightly off-white) etc. etc. but that shade is perfect to me and I suck at imagining slightly different whites and how well they'd work.
Perfect steez for those white MMM high's from this season imo.

I think it's more of a "this is so ridiculous and awesome" rather than "I actually want to buy that"

I've been trying to figure out why I kinda liked the gray&black one (though no, I'd never wear it). I finally got it: Major Matt Mason

+1. It's that next gen of steeze. If it was offered, I would have debated with myself for a while, only to realize that there would be no way in hell that I'd be able to pull it off. It is dripping swag, and it would be ridiculous to see in person, but even if I bought one, I still wouldn't be able to pull it off. Not enough steeze.

Jesus i think if i hear the words steeze or swag any more on this forum ill light myself on fire...and im black so i actually like slang. Aren't there any other words for "cool"?

**** i need burgundy lamb for a quilt dr, im spending all the allocated funds on watches, blazers, and sneakers.

 

[AR_Six]

^I missed it, did he say he could GET burgundy lamb?

 

[Magic1]

I want burgundy calf, or some sort of oxblood. I just can't do lamb yet, not quite responsible enough. Burgundy calf would make an amazing bomber.

 

[blynch]

been eyeing a toj leather it seems for years, dark/med grey collared moto might make me finally pull the trigger. Also waiting for fit pics on this one.

So because I'm not black I can't like slang?

That's how I would speak. I'm not going to put on airs and type out a response on the internet that's different from how I would talk in real life.

Hey has anyone who ordered their bombers in February gotten their stuff yet? I got my WV in 3 weeks, so just curious if the bombers are taking longer (ordered mine beginning of February). Not concerned, just curious

 

[AR_Six]

Bombers would take longer I would think, just by nature of a bomber. Also, different factory makes the bombers than all the other jackets iirc.
