Cheers jet would love at least a list of the places to check out, need to compose a shopping timetable. SoCal can't remember if its that one for some reason it looks a bit different? Can't remember if the store one was RO drkshdw or something, now I'm thinking it must of been because the price is way lower then that one when its on sale. Check it out though Jet, I didn't have a proper look at it.

Nah it's the reverse of the one genius linked, those shorts are ridiculously nice I can't believe you got the last L man or I would buy some was looking for those in spring. Ended up getting a floral shirt, floral blazer, the grey v neck and a bunch of socks from that my fav jw collection. That jil one is thick even though it doesn't look it right? That's a solid ass investment piece.

I'll make a list with some nice food spots for you as well just let me know when.

Yeh pretty sure I got the last large doubt they would of had doubles of sizes. I'm starting to like JW more and more recently. Yeh the Jil is pretty thick but its just the perfect weight. Best part was I got it for $80 is as new condition..

Yea, atelier has been at 60% for awhile. Is it at 70% now? There were a lot of larger sizes left when i was there a few weeks ago. MA+, Augusta, Carpe Diem, CCP were not on sale and never go on sale really. Still plenty of Ann D, some damir doma, a pair of size 5 n(n) jeans, some nice julius jackets and more, and other stuff. Might be worth a call.


jet/davo- What were some of the prices on JW stuff you were picking up? I wish they had a blog or something like that so i could browse stock. Curious to see what drkshdw, ann d, cdg, jw, and raf they have and prices. Might email for a brief stock list tomorrow

Thanks for the Atelier update... sadly I'm only going to be in NY on like the 20th of Jan :|

Chrono I agree they need some kind of blog showing what they have... they have decent amounts of stock, out of those only drkshdw, cdg shirt, jw and raf are on sale (as well as Undercover and 1 or 2 other japanese brands) and they are at 50%. Not sure if he is willing to ship overseas but if you talk to him I'm sure you can work something out. From what I can remember (stockwise...); all these prices are in Aus dollars so its quite a bit cheapers...

Drkshdw
- "there is a place that opens to tears" dust coloured long sleeve for $100
- a nice two tone knit for about 350ish I think?
- a leather jacket I'm pretty sure was drkshdw, was kind of coated, not sure how to describe it; on sale down to about $1100
- detroit cut jeans in a few sizes in a black wash, around 220 I think

CDG shirt
- not much left, shirts were 50% off to around 200
- quite a lot of sneakers on sale
- fred perry x cdg grey polo, about 100

Junya
- the linen shorts (no L's left I dont think) in khaki and navy, 270
- the famous navy/white/blue sweater from the photo with the red pants, quite a few sizes I think, around 250ish?
- a cardigan, another ls knit, a few polos and shirts I can't remember the prices of
- black linen pants (pretty much exact same as shorts but long and pretty slim) for 290 i think
- Linen blazer or two, down to about 700

Undercover
- a few pieces like cord jackets etc... nothing great to be honest, tee's down to around 80 and shirts to 200ish

Raf
- that orange/white tee from ss07 that SoCal has for about 150
- white oxford for 210ish
- a few different short sleeve shirts for around the 200 mark
- I think there was a colour block suit at 50% off as well as the velcro sneakers but not 100% sure
- V-neck greyish knit the one that sort of changes shades of grey, 370

Probably a decent amount more, this is from memory and there is other stuff I'm definetly forgetting. Pretty good prices once you do the currency conversion. Thought I would help Scott out and give you all some kind of idea anyway

I always read about people seeing Carpe Diem, I thought it no longer existed?

Was also under the impression it doesnt exist; maybe its because some of the designers created lines that "branched" off it or something? meh

Only part of Atelier is 60% off now being F/W collections of Ann, NN, Yohji, some DD, Attachment, Virdi-Anne, Julius. They just got some new SS09 YY, AD and Julius. m.a.+, CCP, Linea, etc are full price.

Looks like quality has gone down and prices have gone up? I found them on a Japanese website and they are around $2k. I had always figured they were closer to half that.
