Haha Poly, no worries.

I have the slim (I'm pretty sure), light grey selvedge and they fit magnificent.

[Dangydang]

haven't been up there in a while, (soon goldengloves, soon!) but there are 3 fits. classic (one wash selvedge and bleach black non selvedge) slim (DRY RAW selvedge, dry non selvedge, light grey selvedge) and a tapered slim zipper fly (one wash selvedge, black overdyed non selvedge) it gets confusing after a while. The new dry selvedge of last season FIT VERY WELL!! BTT and I have a pair.

Thanks for the info, Poly.

How slim is the slim cut? Like an APC New Standard?

anyone seen the deck hoody in person ? hoodies are handy to have but are commonly boring , and this one just appeals to me .

[polishmike]

I saw the whole collection at the store. The deck hoodie is very nice and I think it was around $440. Some other nice pieces but I'm not really blown away by it. I can see myself getting something on sale but not at full price. Their jeans are very nice, I really like the grey ones (both light and grey). I alos like this sweater a lot, it was $286.

Hey Mike, what's the Macintosh Kennedy like?

Ouch. thats like a weeks paycheck. Are they doing a light grey selvedge jean this season ?

It's very nice, I think the pattern looks better than in the picture. It also has a belt that you can't see in the picture. I didn't look at the price cause one I would pass out and two it's just not something I would buy. I think it would suit your style very well.

I didn't check if they were selvedge but they looked very nice. To be honest I would buy them either way.

They are. We got them at Blackbird the other day in the narrow fit, along with the rest of our Fall order. Honestly, I am pretty impressed by it; especially considering how unimpressed I was by the pieces last year.

[jubei]

are they still doing sales on S/S stuff? I never got a chance to head down there for their clearance sales... and does their denim ever go on sale?

[Darkeside]

I'm loving that Hood along with a few other pieces - shame none of the Uk stockists have it in, plus for that cash i'd like to give one a try first.

The basement was closed, so they probably sold the remaining stock. Even if they have anything left, it will not be good. There was very little left one moth ago. Also, I have seen their denim on sale at the store, or the t shirts for that matter.

their denim does indeed go on sale. i've seen everything except the t-shirts go on sale. i never ask about the t-shirts so i don't know if they do, but last time i was there,everything was 60% off.

[ruach]

Today I took some pictures of my favourite pieces that we received at Blackbird...

Deconstructed Deck Hoodie (which I bought today)

Waxed Hooded Parka (with huge arms)

Deconstructed Plaid Corduroy Shirt

Thermal

I hope to buy the plaid shirt and thermal as soon as possible...

i loved last year waxed cotton parka. kind of wish i jumped on it when they offered me 20%, did you guys get any m65's and do they do any smalls in the m65?

They did do smalls, although we may already be sold out of both the black and grey in small. I will double check tomorrow for you, though. The price for it has gone up (around $740 or something) but it is also a much thicker and heavier wool than last year. Much more of an actual winter piece compared to last year.

[Analog]

That parka looks really good zipped up.

Ruach, how tall are you (if you don't mind)?

yes it is, but a bit out of my price range for now.

[music_coffee_jeans]

I dont know, I tried on the deck hoodie it was nice, high quality material etc, but really I couldnt see myself wearing that for more than one season, which is espescially a big deal considering the price.

[Brooklyn Zoo]

fucking deck hoodie deck hoodie deck hoodie deck hoodie.

it has become a need

Blackbird just posted some pics of the clothes on their blog. As much as I like the style of NDG lookbooks, I'm more interested in seeing the clothes. These pics make it a little easier... http://helloblackbird.blogspot.com/

No price on the wool crewneck sweater? I think someone had a photo of it in recent purchases but damn it looks really amazing when worn. I really want a lot of this stuff.

The wool crewneck sweater is $288 at Stels (www.stelsinc.com) although they do not appear to have it online yet. They also carry it at Brigade (www.clothingbrigade.com). There is a Styleforum discount of 10% on all items (you need to ask for it at this point) and free shipping from Brigade. I like all three shops (Brigade, Stels, and Blackbird).

It's $288.

edit: beaten. We can also do a 10% discount on NDG for superfuture members, as well as free shipping.

I should've upped the ante and said that the discount was 25% off or something, and seen if you guys would have met it
