They're half-canvassed, by Corneliani. It's been a while since I ordered, but I recall them being more shaped than super slim. They're pretty waisted, rather than lean throughout. But as I said, it's been a while, so the memory's hazy.

Why would you get hit with customs fees?

There are separate euro yoox sites, but they ship out of the US.

Well, I can always go and sell some blood or an organ I have two of. Perhaps I can pawn 1/4 of my liver on the black market....who knows.

I like handwork, forces my wife to be careful when she washes my clothes.
