GYAKUSOU : undercover lab + nike

[Mikeyone4life]

It's weird because NDC had them online for maybe a week and then they got pulled. Was hoping to get another grey pair of Lunarspiders.

[spaces]

yeah that is sort of strange, i went to the niketown in san francisco and asked about 7 employees about the drop of the gyakusou line, needless to say all of them had no idea what I was talking about...

 

anyone know?

darkside initiative (supposedly) dropped the collection in store today.

Has anyone seen the grey lunarglides available online? Seems like all the usual retailers are limited to the red and orange ones.

more from darkside

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

every season i like the 3/4 length or full length pants but never do anything about it.
good thing pocket layout on this season's pant kind of really strange >_>

[wahwho11]

i need a usuable ass pocket on the 3/4 pants or full length pants.

has anybody tried on the tights? all the sites seem to say size up across the board on this collection but I have yet to see any post measurements.

[jbanger]

^ I've sized up on tights from previous seasons (as well as everything else) so I don't know why this would be any different

 

oh, some of the new collection's on fleabay already too

[Mikeyone4life]

My girlfriend spoke to an associate at Nike Las Vegas and apparently only Nike in NYC got it. I assume it was Mercer. But he said that only about 20 stores in the US got them or some shit. Take it for what you want but I'd call around and see if stores are getting them/have them.

I spoke with SNS and they said that according to Nike there weren't enough orders on the gloves (and neckwarmers) by the stores in Europe so they were dropped from release there.

ok, thanks. i ordered the thermal and tights both in size L (usually size M). so we'll see how that goes.

it was mercer. NDC said they didn't have the release on their calendar.

[burgerking]

yeah only place in us that has it is mercer.  had a few customers call to check and i couldn't find any in the nike system cept mercer. most of the gyakusou collaborations drop mid/late nov

[solifestyle]

went to mercer to see the collection in person. looked and felt great but sizing was quite small- nothing anybody didn't already know i suppose. I normally wear size S in nike running or M for a slightly more relaxed fit but I think I could easily do L in this stuff.

[Phrost3]

For those who have tried on the F/W 2012 mesh lined pants, how do they fit? 1 or 2 sizes smaller than labelled? I'm about a 33 inch waist and deciding whether a L or XL would fit better.

 

Also, are the pockets big/secure enough to hold keys and a phone?

slightly off topic....but, thoughts on Nike White Label? Looks interesting I recall some other "Made in Italy" higher end Nike stuff in the recent past but not under the name Pinnacle that the oki-ni article refers to.

Anyone know where i can get an XS in this season's stretch shorts in midnight turquoise? Bought the sport red colorway in XS fits just right (was an size S for SS13)

 

Most online places only go up from S onwards...

[Njalle]

Been looking for the shorts on the right for a year now in size S or M. If someone has them holla at me, will pay good money if the condition isn't too shabby. L will be considered too

[jbanger]

^ great shorts, took me a while to track them down was after them for a while too

 

just a tip: i have them in an XL, i sized up like all my gyak but for some reason these seem to fit tts, or maybe that's how the fit's supposed to be, almost look like a drop crotch, lol

 

however i live in them, i don't run in them anymore, but prefer to wear them casually now anyway

 

good luck in finding them, always some floating around on fleabay but haven't seen too many smaller than an XL though

[Mr.Sander]

No Size S with Gyakusou? I can't find any even on ebay. May I have the chance to find some in Japan?

Thanks - yeah, I remember finding them in L once, but the price was way too high. Now that I graduated I can afford it easily, but I haven't found any yet... but thank you for the heads up about sizing. guess this means L is out of the picture, but that I will consider XS if anyone has that size

They are an anomaly. I have I think 5 or 6 pairs of GIRA shorts and those are the only ones sized TTS. Incidentally I wore those shorts with those same tights this morning to run - I still haven't gotten tired on them. Oh and I finally found the new gloves. So it has been a good day.

[rirawin]

How did you size the gloves? I have pretty large hands that are thin and long... thinking to grab a size large, but I'm unsure if Nike are generally generous with their glove sizing.

 

A subdued season, I've only purchased two sets of short shorts and s/s tees for the lady and myself. Just need the gloves and I'm done for this year.

 

Regarding purchasing size smalls, they surprisingly sell out fast from the majority of Western based stockists, probably because those shops only get one of each style in that size, as they're too small for the "Western man". I've had more luck with proxying direct from the Nike store in HK. They tend not to sell out too fast in smaller sizes and are generally cheaper than the US and Europe even when factoring in international shipping.

I got the large and am hoping they will fit. I also have fairly large long and thin hands - will let you know once they arrive.

[Njalle]

In orange? Are you sz S/M?
 

If the answer is yes to both of these questions you should definitely sell your shorts to me

Rirawin, how you do contact the Nike store HK? Trying to look for an XS for the stretch shorts in midnight turquoise...got a XS pair in sport red but having little luck online. Just wondering if they might have it
