Regarding several of the posts above and how fucked up SUFU is (along with the buying & selling in SF & SZ), I am working on a custom web application for buying & selling of used clothing. It is going to have a very modernized feel to it and (imo) much better organization & search features. Additionally, it will be much easier for sellers to manager their items. So be on the lookout in the coming months.

Speaking of which, when is the Barney's 1 day sale coming up? Generally, it should've already happened by now.

saw something atrocious the other day. A guy in his fifties getting coffee at work had on probably the worst cuffed jeans I have seen since I saw little kids try to do their own cuffs. The cuffs were uneven, they weren't straight, and the jeans really weren't the ones to cuff. No idea what brand they were, it didn't matter. Then I noticed that the rest of him looked somewhat similar. Perhaps he doesn't own a mirror or doesn't care, but man oh man!

I love that, for the most part, SF has moved on from workwear and SuFu is just now getting inundated with it.

Didn't want to get too off topic in waywt.. I would agree with what's been said, and the lack of structure on some RO leathers really keep me from kopping one. I feel that even some in XS wouldn't fit me properly as I'm a pretty lanky dude. The columnar construction on my Julius moto definitely flatters those with leaner proportions. I might just stick with Julius leathers unless I can fit a rather substantial RO one that'll suit me properly.

To make them fit properly, you need to really fill out the shoulders and chest area, or else they slouch too low, especially in the back. They don't have as much structure as other leathers, relying a lot more on your body to fit the curves of the jacket. I had a Rick jacket about a year ago when I was 10 lbs. smaller in the same size/cut, and my current one fits a LOT better now that I've gained a bit of mass, where my Dior and Julius ones seem like they'd fit a straight-up skinny dude a lot better. I'm not big by any means, but it def. fits better than when I was rail-thin Photographic evidence, edit: found a better picture on my phone

The jacket has a lot better structure around the chest/shoulder area. Look how it's pulled taut across the chest, rather than bunching up around my belly and drooping past my crotch
