i was really looking for a slim fitting tailored look.

you're right nukeman, i submit.

I don't know, perhaps I'm not giving him enough credit, but do you really think Label Under Construction Carol Christian Poell is the sort of thing he's interested in, or the sort of thing he should just jump into? Seems like his tastes are more conservative, he'd be better off with, say, Jil Sander, which is actually pretty plentiful on eBay in 48/50, at under $100, even full suits for that much (although he wants a sportscoat, not a full suit), whereas on Rakuten the $200~$300 mark. I mean, more "conventional" european houses - Dior Homme, YSL under Pilati - would be more the sort of thing he's looking for rather than CCP or CdGH+

You're a plague.

Both LUC and CCP produce excellent slim fitting jackets. Whether he has the mental fortitude to whistand their telepathic wails beating at his cerebellum is another matter and can only be examined once the object is within range.

 

ha, im very familiar with rakuten. and y!jp and the like. just trying to avoid used clothing and doing best to buy from retailers. thats kind of what makes it a bit more difficult. LUC and ccp are cool and all, but i need standard shit, we have to dress "professionally" being in military and what not, even off duty. havent been able to find much RO that fits or close to what im looking for, same with yohji and cdg unfortunately. thanks for help though

 

 

That's a shame. Beyond the the bit more thematic, ostentatious(????????), or extraordinary elements LUC and CCP can embody there is a whole trove of pretty demure shit which wouldn't be hard to get away with in a professional environment (see "TheAddict" from SZ).

I don't mean to be rude but I have to agree with Nukeman here, hit the books, you already have all the keywords.

im like 6 3, skinny athlete. i was really looking for a slim fitting tailored look. after research (nukeman) i was finding a lot of looser fits from yohji or cdgh+ and i really just dont like junya for whatever reason, reminds me of old people. im not looking to buy used as i cant do the whole return thing if fit doesnt work out. admittedly i care about branding and do like look of this blazer, but not sure on quality as ive never had chance to physically compare UC with other higher end (as far as price) brands.

If you're unfamiliar with Rakuten I would heavily advise getting proficient at navigating it since a lot of spectacular shit gets thrown on there with (relatively) little attention.

At some point, once you're comfortable, I would also recommend becoming familiar with Yahoo Japan and Rakuten JP.

 

The only issue you MIGHT face is that at 6'3 you're a bit taller then a lot of the demographic from which clothing is sourced on Japanese mediums. Surprisingly, I do manage to find a lot of humongous shit which no one buys, so it might work in your favour.

 

I don't know how easy it is to find or how accessible it is to you but Julius, Carol Christian Poell, Label Under Construction, Rick Owens, Ann D often produce variations of sports jackets that you might be interested in and are accessible on Rakuten.

However, because you're searching a Japanese medium it is more likely to find things created under Japanese producers, then Belgium or Austrian... It might turn into a numbers game kind of thing.

On Rakuten global, for Rick I would suggest typing in "Owens", and for Julius "Julius"

I wouldn't put off CDG and Yohji at all if that's your concern. Both done their fair share of slimmer jackets so if you have a afternoon to blow just gets your measurements down and go wild bookmarking shit you like.

getting sweaty when eating hot/spicy foods

you ridden this one out alone brohime. that's gross.

 

feels when runny nose droplets falls into your spicy ramen shared however.

some scumbag is flipping a tacky ass bomber? it better have at least one hidden pouch for each of those prints or my wallet ain't tingling. whether it says raf simons or no,t shit looks bunk. prints i'd find on the kids play mat in a flu ridden clinic waiting room or something.

 

here's the dealeo bromeo. skip the heart attack on that piece of shit, go buy yourself a rick bomber, or issey bomber, or yohji bomber, or cdg bomber, or junya bomber, or carpe diem bomber, or whatever other dope af producer who actually doesn't look to cash cow the fuck out of his client base bomber for at least 90hundo less. talk to it, tear it and then realise it ain't worth a cent resale because you've torn off all the lining.

 

the mine still exists even though it feels like shitlords are dredging it. you just need to what's good for you and why, if you keep your shit super cold you'll catch

 

i got these mint carpe's last week and they look like i walked through foliage trimmings on a wet sunday.

Got it twisted, you don't need to suck his dick.

 

Guys more like the Eye of Sauron or s/t. Spends all his days staring at this abyss. Anyone that throws on a ring alerts his horde of slain fuccbois from beyond the rep circle jerk to scrutinise petty curiousity.

No ones seen his face, his words are pretty much mute, this empty vessel that reacts to the slightest twitch of life in his realm(supertrash).

 

Nothing but cloaks there hombre.

must suck being chained to the mid 1900s

nope. it just looks shitty. he got hairs over his socks and bad bikini thighs. Don't forget you on a male dominated forum where nobody wants to see when he sits. 

 

fuck you says my gay friends.  

who cares. you look like shit

And hombre is still kicking ass.

 

 

Submit to his ascension

those souless-hooker eyes

how much are you per night habeebee?

 

also, FREE RUNS 2 fresh need to experiment

 

im envious as always ofc.

fuck yeah dude
how many upboats until im internet famous?

Any decent vintage/consignment stores in Paris?

Anywhere to pick up Undercover?

Any decent places for techwear a la Acronym, Stone Island Shadow Project, etc

yes for everything however

 

i would seriously consider checking off the pretty bland and expected stores around champs-elysees and rue de riviolli ASAP just to get it out of the way

check every random alleyway and read all the random signs pinned on the walls as usually stores are tucked away.

then go find l'eclaireur, go to the one on rue harrold and the one in 3rd Arr., the one near champs-elysees is OKAY but the one on harrod is truly exceptional

iirc its 10 rue harrold hidden behind a huge door you wont see it so check the door bell and ring them, then wait.

and ask them for reccomendations once your done and then go back the next day and continue wearing everything

then go visit all their reccomendations and ask for more at those spots etc

if you have time to burn get lost in Le Marasis

 

tbh there are heaps of flagship stores in paris (obviously) just type the names into google and check the stockists page, check for france-paris, write down the address, check the map, find the store

Void is a great shop

o-paris is also p.interesting

 

there are heaps of really neato shops in Le Marasis

I never got to check out Shimji though unfortauntely. Spent so much time looking for it only to find it out it had closed.

Ahhhh is this in the Paris store?!

The ladies that work in the BLESS store there are so sweet to talk to!

I think I see one or two of them pictured here.

BLESS always has the cutest designs.

damir has been continually disappointing for the past few seasons, but at least this collection signals a slight upturn...

I agree.

I wasn't particulary fond of SS13.

Although AW12 and SS12 were still nice I don't think they were nearly as dramatic or exciting compared to AW09 and AW10.

This collection definitely saw Damir revist a few themes from his earlier collections especially in regards to the sizing and proportion of a few jackets.

 

The pants however seem to be all over the place.
