Nice pickups, darkanimial. That N(N) collection is by far the strongest ever. Did they have those multibutton blazers and coats yet?

And, nice wishlist Crillz. I was at that Cloak show, and it looked very good on the runway.

Not all, the one jacket I'm really waiting for isn't there yet, they said on the next batch. They have 4 kinds of blazers at the moment, including the double breasted blazer. Coats, the double breasted multibutton coat which is really nice, some 3/4 leather coat. Hard to explain since they are somewhat similar. You just can't go wrong with any piece in this collection!

I can finally post some pics...

Rogues Gallery M-65 jacket

2 pairs of Air Jordan IV Retro White/Varsity Red-Black (a.k.a. "Mars Blackmons")

I went to the drop of those this morning and i have to say, i was pretty disappointed with them. I was expecting at least for the little brooklyn guy to be embroidered on there, but alaw it was jsut a cheesy looking print.

Yeah, the Mars image definitely would've been cooler as an embroidered design. But it's all good... I'll take the laser etching. The '23' on the Fire Red V's coming out in December should be embroidered though.

anymore sizes of those rouges m65's LanceP?

Um... I'm not too sure. I picked up the only one hanging on the racks, and it was a small. I asked if there was a medium, and there were none. So you might want to stop by, or call, and ask if there are anymore left. They do have some of the olive green A.P.C. M-65's from last season... the ones that say "Shoot them in the back" above the upper left pocket.

BEAUTIFUL. If I didnt have a decent black blazer I would grab this myself in a second. Love the embroidery on the arms and back. How much did this set you back? I think I may have to visit the N(N) shop next week.....

This fit me so well like those skinny boys on the Dior runway, but not short enough like the current Lad Musician, that I decided it's mine in a heartbeat. I'm very positive N(N) is way cheaper there in Japan but to answer your ? I got it for 1200. I would love to get my hands on Lad's spring blazers esp how cheaper they are, but that might be a dream for now. If only xcoldricex extended his stay. hahah!

^^ Nice thrift pickups. I found that Herb Alpert LP in my basement a few weeks ago. It's definitely one of the best album covers of all time. I haven't listened to it yet though.

yeah i saw it in the box of records and said "ooh" my cousin who was out with me called out "i love the cream"--and we decided yeah we had to get that.

I can't see the pictures (work computer) but is that the Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass album with "This Guys In Love With You"?

Ive been looking for a copy of that cd for years now. Never been able to find it on anything, including soulseek and the like.

Song is sooooooo fucking amazing. The piano line about 3 minutes in, right before the big crescendo...i get chills everytime.

Ha, I have both of those and a few others on vinyl. I don't know whose parents bought a lot of Herb Alpert and gave it away, but there's always Herb Alpert in thrift record sections. I was just enjoying Little Spanish Flea. Harder to find:

holy shit n(n) is expensive in the states. the most expensive n(n) blazer i saw was around the $750 mark and that's pushing it i think (and said blazer was half lamb suede). could've gotten you some nice ones if you had asked me earlier!! nice blazer though- i got a similarish one from a season or two back with the spiderweb buttons and velvet piping.

i'll try to get pictures up of my japan shopping spree once i get home and get all of my boxes from the post office...

i wish i could say i bought more stuff today as i tried to go to maxfields but they were closed and i'm leaving LA tomorrow.. grrrr... store looked dope from the outside though. can anyone help me out with some purchases there that knows their avant garde fashion- cause i hear they're assholes to people over the phone that don't have a buying history with them.

Thanks for the Herb Albert help.
