Evoke x Fragment design M65 Jacket

[chaos1124]

anyone here ever seen the jacket in person or happens to own one?

how's the quality? I like the design a lot..but wondering how does it compare to supreme and NBHD m65's...

Your options:

Zoloft, Paxil, Wellbutrin, Lexapro, Celexa, Prozac

Well, it is coming out at Blends LA this weekend, fyi.....

Someone mentioned on another forum that Blends will be charging around $500. And correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't Supreme M65 jackets made by Alpha Industries? You can go to a local military surplus store and buy a brand new one for $75 instead of the $250 plus that Supreme charges.

You're wrong.

Supreme M65 jackets may be made by Alpha Industries, but they are nothing like the A.I. M65's you can get at surplus stores.

I hope they don't charge that price..

if they do I doubt anyone would bother picking them up.

there are some floating on yahoo jp and some other japanese websites for under 300.

I'll hit Blends this weekend just to see the jacket in person.

thanks for yall who replied to my question.

[chaos1124]

just called Blends..

they're charging 450 plus tax.

holyfuck!!

oh well, I hope it's as nice as the price tag indicates.

I'm curious, what is the difference? I've been looking for a nice fitting black M65 jacket, but I should probably just wait til this fall since it seems like every streetwear company is dropping their own version.

[eastcoastrider27]

Well the version I have has a built in hood (as opposed to the traditional zip away hood), waterproof moleskin outer, and the fit is better than the regular A.I. M65.

The regular A.I. M65 that I have fits tight across the chest and has baggy arms.

The Supreme M65 has a snug, relaxed fit. Not too tight, but not baggy either.

[herpsky]

apparently the retail is 40,000 yen.

so 450 isnt that bad, is it

i came across this on yahoo

every hypebeast's wet dream comes true

[chaos1124]

^ Blends will also release those tomorrow. they don't seem to the purple color..but they do have both black and white, I heard around 60 bucks.

yeah, retail in Japan is 40000 yen, so that makes the mark-up aournd 100 bucks.

ar...whatever..I know I'll be shelling out 450 for one tomorrow so Ima stop bitching.

I really hope the M65 is nice in person.

the material looks different than most M65's I've seen...
