General Research (Mountain, Naval, Riding, etc..)

It says on the site that the online store will be closed till the 9th... try again then.

ha

if only i could read!

[seafinch]

Just a quick heads up.

The garbstore online store is back up...

[dunkin deeznuts]

some reason i thought htey would have new stock

and does that site get all messed up for everyone else as well....all the shirts and clothing gets stacked up on top of each other

if so, not a good look as thats been going on for six months now....

[16steps]

i need this

[seafinch]

That's looks great Zubin, Get it ^^^

It's finally getting cold enough to be wearing my Mtn Research Jacket...

Favorite thing I own...

x-post from waywt

[16steps]

seafinch,

you're waywt is what made me look up GRM which lead me to this thread.

I really want that jacket but I try and avoid gang colors (blue/red) when possible. I might cop the AM jacket if i can find it in my size.

For reference, what size are you wearing there finch? That jacket is so sick

[seafinch]

Haha, I don't have to worry so much about gang colors... I live in Utah!

MR stuff is amazing. It was well worth the insane customs charge I got surprised with when ordering from Garbstore (they have the blue version of the one you just posted).

That's a size large and fits between a medium and a large I'd say.

23" pit to pit.

Let me know if you want any other measurements.

Peace

[Dead_Wizard]

Glad you decided to keep it

[seafinch]

ME TOO!!! I had so many PM's from people telling me how stupid I was. They were right. Such a great jacket.

[RAISED BY WOLVES]

No doubt their jackets are really nice, but this season it's all about their pants and shorts. Have a look on sett.co.jp

Off the chain.

Wish Garbstore would stock.

[dralfonzo]

visited the tokyo shop the other week its a great store, really nice size and great presentation. I love the way they shrink wrap the socks, nothing new but it looks really cool.

[MeohYesMe]

The detachable 'cape' on this mackinaw is, in my opinion, a really nice detail that really sets this jacket apart from this 'season's' version which Zubin posted.

Those pics are probably 2 years old. We've seen them before.

[notesee]

I'm interested in getting one of their anoraks ... and was wondering if seafinch or anybody else could give me advice in regards to the label's general sizing?

Usually I'm a S, but since it's a JP label I'm not sure if I'd need to size up. Any suggestions?

Haven't been successful with getting measurements.

[seafinch]

I'd recommend sizing up. Mine is a large and it definitely runs a little small. I'd say it fits between a medium and a large.

Pit to Pit it measures 23"

Hope that helps.

Basically. My naval research Jacket is right between a medium and a large, which is great cause american companies never make my size. I am a "marge"

This is good to know. It sounds like they are consistent.

Chill the fuck out........

just something to bear in mind with sizing,as far as im aware some pieces if not all that garbstore stock are cut to accom the western shape,so just beware and check info on the product you intend to buy not just on what people say here as there could well be a mix of jp purchased goods and items purchased from mountain research

[notesee]

Thanks for the input seafinch and RBW.

Seenmy, I was planning on purchasing straight from their site ( http://www.sett.co.jp/ ) ... if that makes a difference?

Good point. I remember the garbstore folks mentioning something to that effect when i ordered mine.

That said though, I translated some measurements in cm to inches from one of their Japanese retailers, and it still seems to run a tad laregr than most JP sizing.

If you order from Sett, lemme know how it goes.

[notesee]

Yeah, I'll probably put it off for a few weeks but I'll let you know how it turns out. Could you PM me the link that you got the measurements from?

Size for Anorak. Just click on "size info" on any of the items and a new window pops up with measurements

Nice feature from Dwell mag, via inventory on the Mountain Research encampment in the mountains outside Tokyo.

Amazing photos.

Have a look.

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

^^ Yeah ,caught that too. I really love the look they're going for, very similar personal style.

REI and granola crunchy kind of vibe going on I love.

[pompadork]

One of my favourite brands so I feel like bumping. Go to the nakameguro store like every couple of weeks now. 

 

Might pick up these shorts next week - http://salt.shop-pro.jp/?pid=88192259

 

 

Also, have they done an extension coat like this before?

yup

 

 

seems like the only difference is variety of colors(?).

 

Would be tite if you could attach all the extensions together to make a long coat but that would probably make it heavy af
