Hows everyones easter break going?

Great. Spent the long weekend with my gf at my apartment, only got this weekend before the painters and timber floor guys get in and start their work.

Spent most of the days shopping, Capitol, Prize Paradize, Wagaya, Takeru, Azuma, Marigold and Starbucking.

Weather today sucked.

No stimulus payment yet.....waiting.......

I read in the sun herald that acne will be opening their flagship store in paddington during May. I think that the brand makes some nice basics so I'd be interested to visit the store once it opens.

[DJI]

acne jeans and basics are nice but definitely aren't worth paying retail for. can imagine how much shit will be locally when an oversized cotton tee is $200 USD on their webstore...

[gobbledock]

I'm really keen to have a look at the store, but I have to agree with DJ. 200 USD for that...wow

[DJI]

$5 USD uniqlo tee sized up one looks like a much better option haha

[nlim3482]

I dunno how the prices at the webstore are so expensive, the pricing at Incu is pretty reasonable...eg $149 for a crewneck sweatshirt

[ben_253]

anyone been to the pop up cheap monday "store" on south dowling?

[johony]

might check it out tomorrow

i assume it'll be a facsimile of the bondi store minus the trek

[Ivans On High]

I'm feeling the pinch too. Made semi-redundant and am only working 3-days a week now. Luckily I got my stimulus package...

Now it's time to blow it on a leather jacket.

[50_lions]

What jacket are you thinking of getting Ivans?

[Ivans On High]

I seriously have no idea.

I like the V&V stuff, but it is just going to be too short for me, and what I'm looking for. I was going to check out the Zambesi but was told otherwise . Fifth avenue shoe repair have a nice bomber style for $1500, so may try that on. I'm going to go check out Assin tonight and consider spending so serious dough, but I would have to be impressed beyond belief to spend over $2000 on a jacket.

I already have a cheap thrift store hooded bomber which I use as a beater, so don't really want another hooded jacket.

Any other suggestions.

[50_lions]

I guess it totally depends on the style you want, man. Also on what brands you are willing to pay for and what they mean to you.

You could look into Robert Geller, he tends to do some nice leather and the seem to be cut a little longer in the body than most others. I think 'our spot' stocks some of his stuff not sure how extensively, though.

[home]

^ let me know if they have the rick leather pilot jacket in black/small @ assin.

yeeeow.

[Ivans On High]

Home, thats what I was going to look for. I know they have it in brown, but I'll check for black.

50_Lions, I really like the geller leathers but Our Spot is only online now and don't have any Geller at the moment anyway. I could always buy from SuFu or something, but I don't trust the yanks. haha.

Out of curiosity, what leather are you wearing in your WAYWT post? Nice boots btw.

[50_lions]

haha, those boots are still courtesy of you and always will be!

The WAYWT leather is the 09 CM bomber.

[50_lions]

And yes I would only trust the yanks on the SZ board tbh hah

[Ivans On High]

What's the 09 CM bomber like? Price point? Does it have that weird pattern on the front or was that last seasons? Also can the hood be detatched?

[savage science fiction]

fashion design

Awesome me too.Thought it would be something creative. Not much going fashion wise in SYd right now

[DJI]

What's the 09 CM bomber like? Price point? Does it have that weird pattern on the front or was that last seasons? Also can the hood be detatched?

$870, no argyle pattern and detachable hood.

[Ivans On High]

Might look into it. 50_Lions, can you post a couple of pics when you have the time?

[Ivans On High]

DJI, what's your opinion on the CM bomber? I imagine you've seen it in person.

It seems quite reasonably priced, but Assin don't have any 09 outerwear in stock yet, and I'd like to try it on for length, and cut etc.
