Nepenthes

[sawn-off chef]

Copped the skirted 60/40 jacket in khaki on Sunday. Also bought the iridescent suit in khaki and the EG trickers. Haven't been bothered to post pics, but got damn, Nep gets all my money nowadays.

Engineered garments FW 13 collection!

http://www.fashion-press.net/collections/2009

love the collection but man that model is horrible.

[RAISED BY WOLVES]

There are several amazing pieces for f/w, holy fuck. Time to knock off a few banks. It's gonna be a hot summer.....

[RAISED BY WOLVES]

Isn't the model always horrible? Feel like that's an EG look book tradition

[sawn-off chef]

Model is less than ideal. Already talked to the guys at Nep and will be getting one of the windowpane suits the day the drop, $$ set aside already and everything.

 

That new Over-parka is fucking ridiculous, too. They were kind enough to show me pics.

[Al6ert]

I've definitely owned more than a few other pieces that i've gotten rid of. I could never really get the blazer style jackets to work, and to be quite honest i kind of hate the pockets on the workshirts. The only reason i kept the red flannel is because i really love the fabric.

 

I was about 10 workshirts deep before I came to the same conclusion

[gettoasty]

windowpane suit is really nice 

 

was trying to get my hands on a siki im suit from f/w 13 but it fell through. maybe will try my hands on the EG

[sawn-off chef]

Are they on sale now?

[readytoignite]

Half off s/s at nepenthes ny, I literally had to stop after scooping 3 pieces before I ended up buying everything. Fall-wise, reversible Melton jacket with floral liner is bananas

Can anybody proxy the eg x vans for me? Please PM me, willing to compensate for effort. Thanks!

[halomunkey]

^are they not taking any phone/email orders for that collection? I thought they provide free shipping CONUS for everything in store.

 

oh shit nvm, just read that its only available for phone order on thursday

After an excruciating forty-minute wait and about 25 calls, my order for the black slip-ons has been placed. The guy on the phone mentioned that he's expecting everything to be sold out by Monday. Good luck to everyone else!

 

Oh, and I paid 10 for shipping.

[Fycus]

I'm glad I only paid a tiny more and had mine proxied tuesday. I don't have to worry about calling (which was busy all freaking morning) and leaving an email (they never responded yet). Not to mention I have a very common size so mine are prob long gone now

can anyone proxy a pair of the eg x vans for me? please pm!

[Broark]

Well I missed out, was looking for the slipon in either tan or black and they were out of both in size 12. Oh well.

[SelfEXplanatory]

new balance for engineered garments release tmrw

 

 

[Nov Spur]

I didn't realize there was such a demand for the EGxVans. I went in on Friday, the place was empty, they took my phone order for pickup first call no problems, and they seemed to have a bunch of stock left. Go figure. 

[skeetinmynose]

Anyone willing to pick up a pair of the New Balance 993s for me?

[Spaghettini]

just scooped up an andover in navy wool/cashmere blend. ideal jacket. need to fire up the collection pics again since its getting to be winter time aka ideal eg season

 

oh, this is also a little late, but hit me up if you ever need to proxy something from nepenthes.

[Bryan_Funfetti]

Hopefully this thread gets some more love.

 

I've bought a few things from Nepenthes over the past couple weeks.  Copped the new LDT jacket in navy serge wool, with the matching Irving pants.  Also just received the black floral/paisley corduroy pocket square.  I want one of the reversible vests from this season, but I'm undecided as to which. Now I just need the temp to drop so I can wear some of this stuff again!

[Fycus]

Can somebody proxy for the sample sale? Looki for rare outerwear, shirting, pants, etc. Size large in most items medium if it runs large

Hate to bring this back from the dead, but I was wondering if anyone knew who the creative director of Needles is? Been going through the NepTokyo news archives and there are just so many outstanding Needles pieces. I want to know more about the brand, because right now I can't find any resource.

Keizo Shimizu

Thank you!

 

this thread shouldn't b dead in the 1st place

Yeah, I feel it. The Nep family puts together such sick stuff all the dang time, I don't know why no one is talking about it on here. The Needles 2014 S/S lookbook is ridiculous.

[Nebulae]

Really really really fucking bummed that this is 1 size too small (someone please buy!)

http://page15.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/t361422859

 

There's also a gray bike jacket to fit a small on yjp.  

Really cool piece

 

 

Also, I heard that the rebuild series doesn't have consistent sizing (since it's "rebuilt" obviously) so it's hard to gauge fit unless you try it on?

Picked up the new Fatigue Pants in black/grey houndstooth, absolutely ace. Just hoping to manage a navy rips top pair too now before they vanish everywhere.

I'm also interested in hearing about this. I've been wanting a rebuild flannel so much but they don't pop up too often, let alone in a large. Specifically this one looks so nice:

I've also been eyeing the Champion rebuild sweatshirts. Nico Jacobson, who used to post here as like, nerothekid or something, has one and it looks on-point in his photos, though I've yet to find just a general product shot of it. Think The Bureau was selling them?

 

I've been going through the Nep archives and saving all the stuff I like that I'll probably never find. The number of beautiful pieces is just astounding. I'd be happy to upload a zip of all the product shots I like after I finish going through all of the archives if anyone is interested in that.

 

Oh yeah, and someone needs to buy this South2West8 shirt on e-g. I would jump on it but it's too small.
