well, they used to have them, but its all sold. only left selvedge coats in EM.

i was told the material for the parachutes are depleted. but inquire anyway, let us know if its a go!

still thinking of paper derbies, its nice to have some sort of synergy with the paperish woven suit.

[melvin7]

just missed out on the dipped sneaks on Y! bahh. Ah well, it wasn't the colour I prefer anyways...

If by the time I get back from my trip in Sept and still no luck - special order here we go!

unless I decide to cop ze derbiezZ

[fenrost]

^ it ended 1.5k. aud.

still quite a steal, since they rrp $2.5k to $3k.

most expensive sneaks ever, ugh.

[melvin7]

my max bid was 110k yen... i'm kinda glad coz i think i would rather pay a lil more to get the colourway i really want.

plus this isnt really a good time for me to spend haha. need all the money i can get for the label. we're shooting AW11 in less than a month time!

Insane sale on at Zekka. $100 Julius jackets

[melvin7]

whoa - any ideas what they have left in size 1/XS Dave?

[fenrost]

sorry, i think someone here asked me about em's ph jackets. got bombarded with pms. but anyway,

Insane sale on at Zekka. $100 Julius jackets

thats craazy discount

[Daaave]

They were just the white waxed cotton ones from _7 SS09, but even so. In size 1/XS, they had only so much left in the big name designer stuff, but a lot of the basics line that they put out a year or so ago, drop-crotch pants, shorts, T-shirts etc. I saw a really sweet Julius denim jacket for $350, but it was in size 3. There was a lot of Undercoverism which is really nice, quite a bit of drkshdw and CdG, including a lot of those Lewis Leathers x Commes de Garcons sneakers for $50.

[eversuns]

wow really! When did the sale start? I am hoping they still have some stuff on Saturday when I can get down.

Much in the 46 (Small) category?

[Deiv]

Haha, that was me, thanks Rob

[Raw Selvedge]

Daaave, which denim jacket was it? Can you link any pics? cheers

[Daaave]

There was a lot of CdG stuff in small sizes, as well as Undercoverism and some Julius etc. Just be aware that it's not in Zekka itself, but at the location of the future womenswear store in Shenton Park (214a on Nicholson)

I'm pretty sure the denim jacket was the 4-pocket from SS09, but I didn't have time to check because at that point I had to run a couple kilometres to UWA.

Just give the main Zekka store a call and I'm sure they'll work something out for you at the sale. Would love to do it for you man, but I'm busy with a birthday tomorrow/today and I don't think it'll last long...if it's not gone already. If it's not working out...just let them know I'll pick it up for you another day, if you can manage to 'reserve' it.

the sling style bag?

[melvin7]

noooo!~

thanks anyways Rob <3

oh and I ended up re-buying that _7 leather blazer in size 2 heheheheh

[Raw Selvedge]

^^^ Need another set of detailed fit pics like last time. Did you find it on Y!?

Oh and Tyro, I noticed your ebay listing for your spiral zips ended at a really low price . Are you really gonna let them go for that price?

[melvin7]

Haha will do soon. Naw i actually got it from nakata... in a different colour though - its dark brown which I actually prefer and it fits me perfectly this time.

^ sucks to hear T wish I could find a pair in my size again...

[kuugaia]

the sling style bag?

Can't find a picture of it but it's a typical messenger style bag with a single buckle closure. Sorry, didn't really pay too much attention to it tbh as I was more looking for clothes.

[Ivans On High]

I usually put a disclaimer in the listing, saying that if the winning bidder has made contact within 24hrs, or paid within 3 days then I have the right to re-list.

Not sure what official policy is, but I figure that would cover it (not that it's been an issue for me).

Hell, for that amount, I'll buy them back off you.

[swooc]

^what was the final bid? i state 3 days in my auction conditions, but i usually give them about a week.

thanks kuugaia, different bag i'm after.

[fenrost]

yeah, i would too. size just too big. : \

[homme.homme]

called the store.... so friendly and heaps of help. paying for some stuff via paypal. Thanks for the heads up Kuugaia - would rep if i could.

yo, for those in the know, do jetstar JP flights ever get much cheaper than 700 return? or any other carriers for that matter.

Yeah they do, got myself a return trip from Melb > Cairns > Narita and back for just $518 in Feb this year....booked it I think the first week of Jan. Prior to that I scored return tickets for $680 last August.

Just wait it out and once the sale pops up, grab your tickets ASAP. Don't think i've ever flown to Japan for over $900, although I wish accommodation was cheaper there.
