Word I'm gonna be there on Thursday if anything, 32 works out for me quite nicely.

[truest]

Nice how were the prices? I'm a size 32 too..

[joey_formal]

why do i have to be broke right now.

[Mr Calvin Oscar]

hey someone pm me.

[gentleman]

eh, wasnt very good if you ask me. i prefer nudie regular ralfs and there werent many in my size (30-31). there were lots of nudie shirts and jackets but to me, their clothing is crap...its for kids.

im not a huge fan of acne...i just dont think its a quality brand for the money. they had a nice suit jacket but nothing i was interested in.

as for prices...nothing outstanding...jeans were $100, outerwear was $200. i just wasnt impressed at the selection or prices.

[thelion1856]

by the time you read this i'll be on a plane haeded to New York. but i dont think im going to go to this.

[polishmike]

eh, wasnt very good if you ask me.

eh fuck it then, i'm not going

[pamplemousse]

As for sizes, this is a true sample sale, so the sizes are very limited. Pretty much 32 in jeans, most tops are mediums, most shoes are 11. There are a few odd sizes, but you won't find much if your a 38 waist. All prices are less than wholesale. It's not crazy ridiculous cheap, but much cheaper than retail, I would say at least 65% off retail, some of it much more.

[Mr Calvin Oscar]

somebody get me acnes...

[kert]

if someone can hook me up with a pair of acnes in a size 32 at 65% off i'll give u an e-hug.

[neverletdown]

all they had were distressed jeans. i bought a nudie western shirt. they had a few acne jean jackets for $100 that were nice, but i'm shopping for the AZ summer.

[adsurgo]

it was good. not great. a ton of the filippa k shit had holes in the back which sucked

[Caps Lock]

Wasnt that bad, alot of their stuff was in season. They had some Flippa K raw denim though.

[denimAddict]

i love filippa k! perhaps more so than my slim jim nudie...

although i notice it s not being discussed very much here...

on a side note, pamplemousse, do you also happen to ocassionally post at a fashionguide site in taiwan?

*wink wink*
