Got some decent 'bargains'. SS Shirt was new from this season with tags and envelope via a resell site so pretty chuffed.

Would be keen to get thoughts on the Eiger fit and how others style them. The green is a tad different from usual.

don’t have them so not sure how to style them but love the green tone on them. Nice pick ups!

my holy grail just arrived. This AW20 version. Been debating on a 3 or a 4 (I’m a 4 or 5 in Visvim). Decided on a 3 as I wanted a slim fit like the older versions and found one Yahoo JP for decent price relative to others you see online. Paid £1800/ $2400. Sadly the seller didn’t have the bag/ tags but don’t intend to sell so not too fussed.

overall pleased with the fit and it's absolutely beautiful in person. Size 3 fit actually looser than I thought it’d be and in person looks looser than the photo.

Fit looks great. Sits well on the cuffs, which would always be the main thing for me. Congrats!

Yeah size is good for the intended fit. Amazing price too

thanks guys! yeh I noticed soon as i put it on the sleeves were just right compared to some people's i've seen.

it does mean I have to sell something (my job cannot afford a Kerchief lifestyle without some selling on the side haha) so will be parting ways with my size 4 Pink Iris Liner if anyone interested. Now that on the other hand does fit slim and I really needed a 5 so happy to let that go

If it was a 3 I would've been interested.

What’s the usual retail price on a bandana Kerchief?

Also, is there somewhere to sign up to know what special drops are coming? Like Black Friday, New Years etc.

Depends on the kerchief color/year. Anywhere from $2500 to $5000. I'd say anything less than that in good used condition would be an okay deal.

They usually send out e-mails and update their website for holiday drops a 2 weeks before. Additionally the store associates usually know ahead of time.

I hear the new year release in JP this year was only available to VIPs.

the legit ones I currently see on YJP are all pretty much going for under 2k.

yeh I’ve been checking Yahoo JP for months for the right price, size and pattern, and you can get one for a ‘good price’. Mine was £1720 ish before shipping and what not.

some of the Grailed prices are just crazy to me. I know Grailed fees are high but you can’t really go wrong with Yahoo JP using Zen Market from my experience if you make sure it’s a reputable seller

 

[norigim]

Oh whoops, looks like you were asking about retail. I think the last drop was ￥275,000 in JP (with tax)

Kofu retail was 2,700. You can get on the store’s email list and from there you will know what’s dropping each weekend. They send emails about releases on Mondays. In addition, if you get cool with staff at the store, they will let you know about stuff as soon as it gets in.

All this kerchief talk has got me jonesing for one. ?
