  1. What he said , love the wabash shirt !

    Just did a google on this shirt to see how much I can get one for , and it appears that when I start robbing banks I can afford one .

    "Everybody freeze! I need a new Flat Head shirt!"

    ;)

  2. Hey guys, up for sale is my Pherrow's corduroy ranch jacket in size 40 (Large), made in Japan. There's nothing wrong with this jacket at all, it's just a bit too small for me, especially in the waist. (I sized up and bought the 42 recently to replace this one). 

     

    This jacket is made of a relatively hefty corduroy and had faux sherpa lining all along the body and neck; there's is smooth, sateen-like polyester lining in the sleeves. This jacket is fairly toasty; I've worn it with a flannel shirt and undershirt comfortably into the low 50s. 

     

    Price: $150, OBO.

     

    PM me if you're interested.

  3. Oh, other than that I don't know what fade pattern running from the butt down the back of the thighs, and too many creases down front along the inner thigh, they don't look THAT bad.    :P

    Neg repped by accident!

  4. oh right. yeah i remember that store now. it's from the places you told me that i found. it's that store under the cafe with a small staircase down leading to it right?

     

    edit: tbh, i dont even know if i went to the right store the other time..

     

    Yep, a little hard to find, it's under Woo Life down a stairwell.

     

    There's another store nearby that's also down some stairs, hope you didn't go in there by accident.  :D

  5. taiwanese dude looks familiar. wonder if he works at take 5 taiwan. kinda reminded me of one of the staff when i was there.

     

    No, zk is Kurt Chen, he runs Faith Co., also here in Taipei.

     

     

    Can anyone tell from the photos what jacket he is wearing

     

     

    It's the W and Anchor Bros, Faith Co's in-store brand:

  6. That a-1 is nice, and price is even better. Makes a leather jacket that much more affordable, but that leather looks off.

    Also I like to know the ethical line most of my clothes were made on, but goat leather? I'd love to read about where their goat leather comes from. Just can't say I've heard of it being used.

     

    Goatskin seems common to me:

     

    http://www.ebay.com/bhp/goatskin-jacket

     

     

    "Goatskin: Lower grade of leather used in coats and has a grainy look and feel. Made popular in aviation jackets because World War II U.S. Government contracts and specifications were for low quality materials and awarded to the lowest bidders for coats. (The generals did not wear goatskin coats.) Most Goatskin leather jackets are advertised as "authentic" or "traditional", i.e., lower grade and quality."
