Archivesf.com had the cotton version of the Julius fencing jacket last I saw, I think it was around $475. I remember seeing one on Y!JP as well for around 18k yen, not sure if it sold though.

I'm looking for a jacket and a pair of shoes. For the shoes I want something casual that can also be worn on a night out w/ jeans. I saw a picture on FB of some shoes I liked that I saw someone wearing, but I saved the pic on my laptop (which I don't have with me right now). They looked similar to these I don't think they were those though because I don't remember them having green laces, and I don't think those shoes were even out when this pic was posted. Can anyone offer any suggestions (or opinions on those I posted)? For the jacked I'm not really sure what I want. I was just going to get a northface fleece, because that's really what I'm replacing, but I kind of want something a little different. I was thinking about a G-Star jacket, and I found this one that I sort of like, but I'm still not sure (and I see it's out of stock now lol). I kind of liked this one too. Mainly for the jacket I just want something that is slim fitting and not too thick (if that makes sense). Any advice/suggestions? Again both the shoes and jacket will be primarily for a casual night out with jeans, but also would like to be able to wear for everyday use too if I want. Thanks edit: forgot about the price.. looking to spend no more than $200 (prefer to stay closer to $150) on the jacket and $100 on the shoes.

I've been looking for a pair of cords and I was wondering if someone had a recommendation. My preference would be slim fit (511-ish), but ideally with a roomy seat (I'm a 32 true waist but I have a big ass - denim known to have diaper ass usually fits me good).

Price range I'm looking at is sub-100, the cheaper the better (yay college). Was looking at jcrew's vintage fit cords, anyone have comments on fit and quality?

You can edit your profile when you log in. Also you can email them and give them your correct measurement. They are extremely helpful and prompt with responses.

thanks! What would you say the fit is like on Nudie Slim Jims, I usually wear Levi's 501 but I kind of want a smaller leg hole, which Levi's do you think is close to a slim jim fit?

I wear TTS in Levis 501s and I just take my jeans to my tailor and have them narrowed from the knee down. NO point spending 200 dollars on a pair of nudies.
