Has anyone ever tried out Homespun? It looks like one of the better "In good company" items. Hard to find anything about the company online. Doubt I would find these in store. Does anyone know how this fits? http://www.jcrew.com/mens_feature/in...9983/39983.jsp

In other news, are those suede NB sneaks growing on everybody or is it just me? I want a pair for summer instead of wearing chucks all the time.


For over 100$ it isn't.

i agree on both parts, i like them, but not for $130.

looks like you can order the green pair on the NB website for $76.

All I can say is that everything seemed to fit smaller. Like a pretty big jump. That gray cardigan (which was nice enough, but nothing special - for $100+) fit really slim for a small. Like enough for me to want to want to try a M on if I actually considered buying it. Which is pretty much unheard of me for me with j crew. Same boring polos. Some different color choices on the shorts this year. Khaki is a difficult color to find. The most compelling piece was a burgundy/red zip up in their terry loop. A lot of light weight cardigans..cropped. This was all really early spring stuff..first batch I guess. big checks and horizontal stripes..

Hard to tell. J Crew is very good at hyping up an item by giving the consumer a sense of being unique. I do love the look and how deep the buttons go but I just dont know if I can put up 65$+tax for it.

I'm personally going to wait for a sale, and if I miss it then oh well.

Anyone have pics of new balance 574 or 1400 with slim jeans/chinos? I'm tempted to get some myself but with so many colour combintions its hard making a choice.

One of these shoes costs more than half of what the other costs. Quality is probably more or less the same. Can you guess which one?

I suppose 20 percent off one item is considered a sale, but the only time you get great deals at J Crew is when they're switching stock.
