Similar fit alternatives to Acne Max Raws that are actually well-built?

Anyone know a good suit tailor around the downtown area (LES/Nolita/Soho/West Village)?

fit pics on the nomad hiker that's on sale at oki-ni:

Jacket is size L, I'm 6'1", 40, 33w. Fits bigger than other nonnative stuff I've tried, and definitely bigger than most jp brands

Anyone know where I could pick up something similar to nonnatives dobby storm parkas they did a while back? basically a light navy parka with technical detailing.

maybe a nomad?

Nonnative Hiker maybe? On sale at oki-ni:

I just received the last large, love the fit & detailing on it.

Already got tickets to Amon Tobin Isam, looks amazzzinngg

Trying to figure out what other nights too, Saturday at Neumos looks pretty good

Finally shipped, extreme flakiness on my part, also just received my package! Pics coming soon...

Anyone looking to try on momotaro jeans in the city should check out kuhlman, stopped by the other day for the first time in a while and apparently they just got in a few cuts.

swap partner I'm going tomorrow too, I'll be in at the last moment

seattle:

pros:

* Great summers, weather's perfect

* Good food. Lots of variety in the low-mid range places. Great korean, ethiopean, thai, vietnamese, etc. New restaurants open all the time, people are generally pretty knowledgable/excited about food (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/12/travel/eating-in-and-around-seattle.html gives a way better picture of the mid-range than I can. As ridiculous as it sometimes is I love it)

* Fun bar scene with decent variety (cocktail bars, beer bars, dives, etc), including both pinball/circus and mexican wrestling themed bars.

* Music scene isn't bad, venues are generally small, packed, pretty fun

* Amazing seafood

* Decent air connections for a city of this size (directs to most euro/east asia hubs, mexico, lots within the states)

* Cafe scene is great. Lots of late-night cafes where people are always working on things. Plenty of coffee/atmosphere variety.

* Most of the downtown area is pretty walkable, I almost never drive.

cons:

* Very limited number of neighborhoods you'd actually want to live in

* Weather in the winter/fall/early spring: 9 months of monotone gray

* Girls aren't great looking

* Passive-aggressive people

* Not too much of a club-goer but the clubs in seattle are the worst I've ever seen. Shit's straight out of 10 years ago in terms of decor, music, crowd, etc.

* Street food scene is lacking compared to portland (though getting better quickly)

* Public transport is eh, and isn't slated to get better for like 5 years.

* All the neighborhoods with cool, older architecture are either slums or completely unconnected to the rest of the city. Newer buildings are, generally, not terribly exciting.

my free trip to hawaii is only 4 days long...

Assume that to get a decent job you need at least 2 of these 3:

* Know people

* Be skilled/have a portfolio

* Have a degree

Just knowing people won't get you shit, at least not for long.

There was a study...

Yep, if you can justify the $450 annual fee Amex platinum is great, you can usually find 25-50k reward point signup bonuses too. For short-term mileage bonuses, there's a BA Chase card right now with a 100k miles signup bonus, it also has no foreign transaction fees.

Flyertalk is a great resource for stuff like this.
