how are EM's prices? are they equivalent to US/Euro pricing?

[DJI]

haha, definitely proxy but still need to see individual pieces to make decisions!

yeah, ~250k yen or so would be my estimate as:

- jacket = 85-90k yen

- pants = 40k yen

- boots = 70k yen

- leather accented cut & sewn piece = 30-40k yen

- stole (?) = 25-30k yen

ajax I'd imagine EM's prices would be similar to EU/US prices, so between 50 and 100% mark up...

[Ivans On High]

Has anyone ordered from Komakino before? I asked that they mark the package down to avoid import duties (only a $150 below actual value), do you think they will do it?

[btbam]

havent purcahsed from there but have met the buyer, was amazingly kind. And the stores are amazing Should be all good

[Ivans On High]

bt, may I ask, what sort of start up capital did your store require? and do you own the space or are you leasing? feel free to PM the answers...

spoke to cale today regarding the new CM jeans. they've decided to produce the waxed black and charcoal grey jeans in the lizzie cut, however they haven't decided on the exact denim they're going to use yet. they want to make sure they get the right denim, as their current line of jeans has remained very popular despite being unchanged for a couple of years now. he also mentioned the new higher waisted lizzie blacks, apparently it will have a rise of about 1.5-2 inches higher than the current lizzies.

any new word from richard bt? I think it would be best to try and contact everyone within the next couple of days if possible, before people start to become anxious or lose interest. also pmed you with another potential buyer this morning .

[Tyro1]

2 inches my be a bit too much extra rise on the lizzies... they could have 1 inch ok I think, but they may end up like cheap mondays with 2

[DJI]

yeah a higher rise definitely isn't for me but I guess it doesn't hurt to add some different cuts to their range, they're still producing the lizzies (in different colours/finishes too) so I'm happy .

[Tyro1]

oh, that's cool, I though they may be replacing, but yeah an option is always good

I imagine they would target the the new cut more at female sizes

[melvin7]

when do you think they will release them D? next season maybe?

when i go to melb in july i will definitely be getting the black pair

[jbone]

were they doing the slim trousers as well D?

i got the CM swesson pants the other week, pretty happy with them even though it was different to what i expected.. thought i was getting the catalogue colour with the black & dark greyish colour but ended up being all black..

How'd it work out with the shoes T?

[Tyro1]

total fail with the boots unfortunately... Was really keen to get them, but Barneys wont respond to my emails... would still cop if I could.

what do people think of these LUC pants?

Still waiting, its only early in the day over there, might hear from him but sadly i have no idea as to where we are at apart from its loooking good!

Pants look pretty amazing. Want that RO jacket in the higher collar in a L :\

Would like to see a fit pic of the pants

[50_lions]

Bigger rise is a great idea.. I find with long legs and while sitting down, the low-rise makes it hard to keep them in the one position (even with a belt).

[btbam]

Scrap my last comment on obscur

Order has been confirmed.

[DJI]

aw hell to the fucking yeah! looking forward to receiving an email/pm from you bt :D:D:D

T sucks about the boots, was really hoping you would be able to get them (I did post them here for you after all ). I'd pass on the pants, tbh I think there are better ways to spend $350...

CM have been making high waisted womens jeans for a while now, I think they're called the jug model. no word on release date of the new jeans yet, they want to make sure they get them right instead of just rushing them out. the high waisted lizzies as well as a recut of the regular black lizzies should be hitting stores soon though, they're just waiting on new zips. they've sold out of black lizzies in every size except 28 and 36, had to pick up a pair from fat for a dude from the US who got them proxied .

forgot to ask about the slim slacks. cale did mention they were doing some cotton/wool basics, however they may cancel making a lighter weight jacket for a 2nd winter collection as they're trying to push forward the initial S/S drops to August.
