Another amazing piece from him!

Sneak peak of the ROY Portland shirt?

Excellent discussion and great to see it remain civilized.

 

I also fall into the 'Western-sized' category (6'1", 215lbs) and IH works for bigger guys. I would like to wear Flat Head, but after trying on every 36" pair at Tate & Yoko, nothing fit properly.

 

Same boat as you... Wanted to try Flat Head and it just didn't fit well.

Neither of those two jeans are cut like the Slim Jim, i would look at the Strike Gold 1105, 2105, or 3105.  Those are cut far closer to the Slim Jim.

 

I own both the Nudie Slim Jim and the SG3105 and will second that they are close in style. If you want something only slightly slimmer check out the 3sixteen SL-100x (I own these as well).

The Liquor Store focuses on the elevated collection from J. Crew. We eliminate a lot of basics and focus on the higher-end that J. Crew offers. Aside from that, we also have partnership brands that you won't find in other stores. We carry a wide assortment of Wallace & Barnes that isn't in many J. Crew Shops. It's essentially a curated collection from what J. Crew offers that emphasizes the finest goods we offer.

 

The building itself is a refurbished old bar. Andy Spade designed the space working with the existing bar and layout. The building was erected in 1804 as a house. It was a liquor store for many years, then a bar called The Liquor Store. It's now a landmark building in New York, so the sign cannot be removed (though we wouldn't want to anyway). It's a great piece of New York history that I think J. Crew has treated with respect in its appropriation of it to brand and sell its menswear.

 

Sounds like its worth the trip. Thanks!

I see you got the arrowhead pop-over. Looks good, man. If you're ever in NY, come see me at The Liquor Store.

 

Whats the Liquor Store actually like? I've hit up the Men's shop on Broadway, but never made it down to the Liquor Store. Sounds like an interesting concept.

BUMP, Taking Offers!

Is the J.Crew shirt from the current season? Loving that hue of blue...

They're coming June 18th.

 

SWEET! I was planning on hitting SENY in the first two weeks of July.

Hoping SE sees some new stock of Okinawas' so I can try them on before purchase.

Anyone happen to know the approx thigh measurement of a size 34 1947? I've herd from 11"  - 13" but that's such a large range. 

12.7" via http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=65&products_id=279

1. No plans to remake that jean right now.

2. Yes, but if the jeans were not bought from us its $40 to shorten pockets.

 

1. Thanks, maybe ih.co.uk has my size

2. Pair of SG3105 from SENY coming back for a hem post hot soak 

Kiya, Two questions:

• Any plans to restock the IH-634S-B?
• Is it possible to get the front pockets of a pair of jeans shortened (just sewing a line across the lower area) while they are in for a hem?

Thanks!

So Kiya, when this new partnership begins, what model jeans do you plan to stock?

My okinawa's came in the mail today! So excited. It's pouring rain in Calgary for the next few days so fit pics will have to wait. I went tts and although they are baggier than what I'm used to, I love the fit!

How much did they run all told? What seller did you get them from on Rakuten?

Well thats $130 before shipping and taxes, but it will be nice seeing the prices come down some.

So we should be seeing an expanded selection? I'm very interested in actually trying on some Hawaii and Okinawa before purchasing at SENY.

Very excited by this development!

Yup, we have one left at SELA if you'd like to place a phone order for it.  Our number there is 323-933-9000

 

Kiya, thanks again for looking, but it turns out SELA only had a Navy one in XL, not the black. I'll keep my eyes peeled for when these drop again in the fall.

Thanks! I'll call in the morning when they open!

Any chance there is a Black XL IHSW-10 hidden away in any of the stores? I see its sold out online but sometimes the stores have a few hidden gems...

hit me up if you have ps or ns to sell in 33 or 34

Sent you an IM. I have a tagged size 32 NS but they measure 17" at the waist. They are barely worn with minimal fades.

no shame in the 3105...i'm hoping to check that out at sesf this weekend, excited!

The shame is in how much weight I've gained

Emailed, but really, I don't need anything. SE has provided so much info, personal advice, and just amazing Customer Service that I wouldn't consider shopping anywhere else.

Thanks again for being an awesome company.

As expected, SENY and Kiya came through amazingly. Thomas helped me sorting between multiple brands and I came away very happy in a pair of SG 3105 (shame I was too fat for the Flat Heads I had been eyeing, LOL).

My only regret of the visit was ringing them up a shade too late to be able to buy them lunch

Thanks again Thomas, Andrew, and Kiya!
