Not sure where production is currently but most of the simple knits retail in the 300's so yeah pretty much.

I wouldn't ever go for a basic Lim knit though. Some of the more designy things are cool though a bit hit or miss...shirts and outerwear this season are very are nice.

Let the rights over my brother's sartorial direction between me and his wife commence. I bought him an 8-panel hat for Christmas because he's got the facial bone structure that's well complimented by most hats. His wife hates it, though. Meanwhile, he wore this awful earth-tone-colored knit yesterday that she gave him. Besides the nasty color, it didn't fit him well at all. It's total old-man garb, only not in the SF-approved sense. More in the "What steeze-less corpse did you pull this off of?" sense. Not coincidentally, it belonged to her grandfather.

I'm sure I've mentioned it before, but this is all a shame because he's got the ideal proportions (broad shoulders, trim waist) for a lot of clothes to look really good on him.

Ultimately, it matters more what he (and I guess she) likes, but I die a little each time I see him wear something like a boxy pea coat, dad jeans and white Puma sneakers.

I learned a great Chinese phrase today that aptly describes the purchasing habits of plebes who spend all their money on clothes/phones/wallets/bags way out of their price range: 打肿脸充胖子 (punching yourself in the face until it's swollen to pretend you are fat)

lol dude, 8 paneled hat? it sounds like she knows what's up, grandpa cardigans own especially if he's tall and thin. also I never get this hate on earth tones? What's the deal with that? Totally nonsensical.

Why would you buy anyone a hat. Unless you live in Ecuador or something. Also: it is almost always better to not give a **** about the way other people dress. There is a static amount of steez in the world, if he doesn't want any it means more for you. Although you'll have to rap fight the fuckyeahmenswear guy for it.
