Looking like a captoe slim oxford shoe or possibly a jazz shoe like the ones above in a brown color at a semi reasonable price, I know my only choice may be thrifting but if anyone has any ideas theyd be more then appreaciated.

is there a way to shrink a pair of gloves (70% wool, 30% nylon) without getting unpredictable results?

does anyone know where i can buy authentic Y-3 online??

I know Grandism has a couple shoes up. Not sure exactly which items you are looking for though.

I think it looks pretty good, however you need to be sure to get the right size. I think duffle/toggle coats look horrendous if they are too big but you still want room to layer underneath.

Depends on how much you are trying to shrink it. Don't throw them in the dryer but instead put them in front of a portable dryer and see if that shrinks them down a bit. They might have to be a bit wet for them to actually shrink.

QUESTION:

i have a blue jean jacket that i want to dye black. what type of dye should i use and where can i get it in canada, bc?

[chronoaug]

Cross posting because i wasn't sure if it counted as denim or other clothes

I recently received a APC denim jacket and i wasn't sure on what to do with it. Would i treat it like raw denim jeans and hot soak and wear? The APC card that came with it said to wash by hand or in machine with cold water only for the first 3 washes. Also it mentions nothing about drying.

I was thinking of hot soaking with a bit of detergent and then hang drying or throwing it in the dryer to make it a bit softer and shrink it more. It's definitely too baggy right now. I'm generally a small to medium and this is a size 2. I've never had a raw denim jacket so i thought i'd ask.

Yes they are.

I need sizing advice for Alife footwear, specifically the "Zeropoint". Does anyone know if they run true to size? For reference, I wear a 10 Vans Slips and Sk8s. Also a 10 in most Nikes except running shoes (10.5).

Thanks.

Anyone know of a good boba tea shop in new york city? I've been to a few places and they've been pretty shitty.

Can I still get Marc Jacobs prison issues anywhere in nyc or should I just pick them up on ebay?

[doctorgnar]

Anyone have any info on the 45 RPM store in Soho doing denim repairs for non-45 RPM jeans? I think I saw some stuff posted about this a little while back, but I couldn't find it.

I've got some old 505s with big holes in the knees, just want to have someone good patch them up and make some repairs.

Many thanks.

Anyone have suggestions for a nice waterproof backpack that is made for holding a laptop?

How's the sizing on Jordan IV? I cant try them on and Im not sure if I need a 9 or a 9.5. 9.5 is my "safe size" that work pretty much every time but I dont want them to be too big and crease a lot.

Basically I wear a

9.5 or 10 in Air maxes (9.5 being snug but not uncomfortable)

9 or 9.5 in Air forces (9.5 being a little to big)

9.5 in stan smiths

? in Jordan IV?

Well, I think they run true to size, at least the Millitary and Mars do. I wear a 10 Dunk/AF1 and basically every other non-running Nike. 10.5 AM1 & AM95.

Both my Military's and Mars are sz. 10 and they fit fine. I can't speak on the retro Wht/Cement or Blk/Red IVs from '99, I think. Not fortunate enough to own those.

Anyone know where I can get a pair of Puma Cliff in men's sizes (US 10.5) online, that will ship to Europe? I've tried zoovillage and yoox, no luck.

If I'm a Medium in a Spruce slim fit tiger fleece will a Small in classic fit fit me the same way? Or are the fits radically different.

or you can make an offer for my m65 version. might sell it.

[qwertyuiop5]

could you explain the different versions of the jacket to me, as well as availability, pricing, and so on? either through pm or post here

im not very well versed in the japanese high end clothing market, though id like to understand this well, and i am indeed interested in your jacket

i am very interested, so talk to me one way or another

[chronoaug]

From what i've seen, sizing down classic fit and normal slim fit don't work. The classic fit is a baggier cut. The arms are cut larger as well as the body. If you size down, you'll basically just have a shorter hoodie. If you want a slim fit, it's best to hold out and try to search the japanese sites for a slim fit in your size. I don't reccomend sizing down in classic.

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[chronoaug]

No. You'll have to ask parachutes or 2000db. I've asked and zozo does not ship to the us

Did any one incur a custom duty/tax when they ordered from Browns Fashion from UK to the USA? I used the search function, didn't get the answer I wanted. Any help would be great!
