What do you guys think of the shawl collar vest? I'm thinking about trying to pick one up when the collection drops, but I'm afraid it will be one of those things I feel like I can't wear once I get it home.

You don't like it, the A.P.C.?

I like them quite a bit and already have several - you can dress them up or down quite a bit, especially if you get the matching pieces. I'm obviously biased though.

Nice, I might have to give those a try this fall. But 250 euros for APC's? That's bullshit.

I'm assuming they'll put it up any day now though, like they've usually done right after May for the past couple of years.

I hope that fur collar jacket doesn't disappoint. Poor quality/fake fur or a short length could kill it.

Save the fur! Good quality fake's fine with me as long as it goes well with my leather belt and shoes. Would like to see what they do with the fur color in the different colorways of the coat. From the pic looks like there's the neck strap that we saw in the SS08 Pea Jacket, but the collar doesn't seem to be shawl, based on the shape.

Also like the dark brown color of the Rucksack/Haversack in the last pic. Might have to pick one up this season.
