Anybody know where I could get some Weaver Moccasin Waterbird shoes like these in a uk 9 or 10? I checked oipolloi but they're out.

Or these Clarks Moccasin Wallabees?

Lastly these Clarks Madison Magic Suede Oak. I haven't seen them anywhere but Hanon shop...

How often does Gilt Groupe stock good shit (Band Of Outsiders etc etc)?

Gilt's gotten progressively worse since it blew up. Expect like 99 Shitty Bloomingdales men's brands/Kitchen utensil sales for every BoO/CP sale.

bakc when they had thread at styleforum,

they said they were JUST at the Geller showroom.

maybe we'll see a sale in a month or something.

Could you guys name some "fashionable" shoe brands? Preferably casual. I know that this is a broad question, but please bear with me, I'm new to this.

[Guest umhaha84]

hard to recommend a brand without knowing your aesthetics.

can never go wrong with common projects though

Gilt Groupe is pretty much shit, been member for a while and rarely shows something that caught my eye

Saw some BOO for cheap on yoox (mainly basics) but i think sold out quickly

anyone know how a patrik ervell xs shirt compares to band of outsiders xs? I assume it'd be slightly bigger?

Is there a thread for Messenger bags?

I think I remember one, but the search function is a bit buggy and I can't seem to find it.

[pita bread]

what are the options for shortening the sleeves on a leather jacket with a zippered cuff? does it have to be done from the shoulder, or can the sleeve opening be reworked by moving the zipper up?

would washing the leather jacket create enough shinkage to shorten the sleeves by ~1-2"?

just trying to weigh my options before i decide to buy something... thanks for the help guys!

i really like this pair of w+h grey non-selvage raws: http://shopstels.com/shop/mens/by-designer/nom-de-guerre/raw-light-jean.html

is w+h denim worth the money? what about their chinos?

i can remember vaguely that they also released a grey selvage pair, is it available somewhere?

there definitely is, green selvage. I dunno where to get on web. Beware of the rinsed ones, they fit wack, you gotta get the unwashed. The fits seem good, I wouldn't pay 3 bills but I wouldn't pay 3 bills for any pants. 200 or so seems good though.

@seafinch I dunno I can't find one. Start that if you want or I will.

[sheepshead]

Can you guys name some cool backpack brands? Something like the North Face, or Arc'teryx, please.

anyone know how difficult it is to remove a leather jackets lining? i picked up a vintage perfecto in awesome condition, but i'm not feeling the liner. way too warm and i'd prefer something lighter.

[AHShadow]

Thanks!

eyeglasses i'm not so sure of. but my sunglasses are made in italy

[geekbonchic]

I didn't think there was a difference in terms of production between the sunglasses and the optical products. Luxottica runs the brand, so the manufacturing should be the same for both, unless someone knows otherwise.

yea, bigger in the pit to pit. the ervell shirts dont have the tight slim a body fit like band of outsiders.
