Only need to pay 50% this weekend melvin and ones yours

[DJI]

haha, bt the enabler.

mel I agree that the cut and fabric is nicer than CON basics, definitely fits slimmer and the fabric is more substantial while still being soft and drapey.

[jbone]

arrgh... thanks for saving me a trip in then melv, i'm a large..

likewise, will check at another DJ's...

true true, make the most of it while i'm young and can...

still though, suppose to be advising people financially and can't even get my own shit sorted ha..

[ajax]

melv, we gotta meet up man.. you should feel this shiz haha

and agree about a job+copping while young, unfortunately this year i have no income, and sold nearly all of my stuff to buy this jacket hahah

oh, and forget what i said about the collar, looks dope when worn down (not folded). it's also calf leather, which is why it might be heavier

[DJI]

luckily I've never had to sell a piece just to raise funds to cop something, always sold because I wasn't completely happy with it. then again I'm pretty damn fussy when it comes to jawns...

[ajax]

cos your a baller.. $244 a fortnight for me! thanks centrelink!

[Ivans On High]

bt, should I take a screen shot of my transfer receipt for the obscur?

[melvin7]

haha i wish i could bt doing unpaid internship and need the rest of my funds to support my label. I should save as much money as i can for now

and i still gotta fkn sell the Damir Doma shoes to pay for the DBSS boots (i guess its a good thing for me that D's parka is sold to someone else)

aaron im down for the meet up! haha

[50_lions]

junior graphic designers get shafted salary wise but my freelance work helps me pay for most of my extra jawnz. Funny thing is the Obscur leather deal went through and on the same day I got calls on 2 jobs that equal to like exactly $1,500 outside of work. Fucking siked although I will be poor for a while until everything comes in.

In other news, epic stimulus fail. had them cancel the cheque today to transfer direct into my account... then the cheque turns up in the mail same day. May take 14days to go into my account now. fucking failll.

Also D, just checked those SAA dress pants.. the blend is polyester/viscose/elastaine and it does say dry clean only.

[DJI]

cos your a baller.. $244 a fortnight for me! thanks centrelink!

haha I have to work for most of the university vacations and try to squeeze in around 20 hours of work during the semester too , no student benefits for me either...

Ivan yeah you need to screenshot the transfer and email it to bt.

thanks for that 50, although the composition does sound kinda fail for something that's dry clean only : /

[50_lions]

correct D, will not be dry cleaning. Warm machine wash win.

[DJI]

yeah it's not 100% wool or something, should be fine to clean with water

[gobbledock]

hey DJ, would you mind posting pics of the CM parka that you sold? i was thinking of asking you to proxy one of them for me but when i went to have another look at the pic you posted in your sales thread it was gone!

[DJI]

that's odd, they should still be there :confused:. anyway, here are the pics:

no need for a proxy man, claude maus does phone orders within Australia .

[gobbledock]

thanks DJ! would you be able to point me in the direction of some fit pics please? ps you are the best

[DJI]

haha, thanks

ivan rocking his:

- waywt 1

- waywt 2

[melvin7]

Ivan took some waywt pics with them on:

hopefully he doesnt mind me reposting it here

[melvin7]

damn you're quick

[DJI]

lol, sorry mel

[gobbledock]

thanks anyway mel

looks pretty good, might have to give them a call this weekend

[DJI]

nice, not sure what sizes they have left but fat has stock of the coat too.

[DJI]

0 VG has the bird cage in cuff in stock again if you're still interested in picking it up

[50_lions]

random question fairly sure the answer is no, but has Obscur ever had a runway show?

That parka looks v good on Ivan... I tried on the M and the arms where perfect but it seemed really baggy around the body (weird).

[DJI]

no they haven't 50, he mentioned in one of his previous interviews that they were a lot of work so not while he's still working on his own.

haha, the parka was baggy everywhere on me till I got it tailored .

[50_lions]

also just sent an email bt

[btbam]

I would expect a runway show sooner then later guys

[034936]

0 VG has the bird cage in cuff in stock again if you're still interested in picking it up

cheers for that dude! but like everyone else, i'm conserving every dollar i can for larger purchases (seriously considering the CM trench).

[gobbledock]

did Ivan have to get the parka tailored? looks good on him

[50_lions]

Thanks for the interview D. Good news bt, a runway show would be interesting... I think they're another important extension of a brand so it would be great to see how he presents his work in that environment.

Seriously pissed off at employer atm. FUCKK%!^

[DJI]

not sure gd, the fit does look spot on though.

yeah I'd imagine that Richard would be looking at putting together a runway show sometime in the near future, especially with proper distribution of the label starting next season. would be great to see him present at paris, but even a local one in stockholm would be nice too.
