A.P.C. Men's F/W 08.09

The description says "Indian Boots in black". They look like moccasins but there isn't a page in the catalog with a close-up picture of them. Doesn't mean they won't be on the site or in either US store.

There's always pieces in shop that never appear in the catalogs so it doesn't surprise me.

She can do layouts fine but her design skills are shit. Needed to keep her busy.

[AcrobaticTenement]

Shiiiit, must cop that red cardi.

noob q: when do most pieces hit stores? (barneys, etc etc)

I was on the hunt for a summer piece a week ago and was told the Fall stuff might actually hit by late July, early August. Blackbird in Seattle told me they'd e-mail me when they got it. If people are interested I could post here when I get it.

[chronoaug]

What are prices like? Are they going to keep rising to the point where it's not worth it at retail like ndg?

[mellowfellow]

South willard already have some of new apc on their site.

So Goddamn French I Can Barely Stand To Look At It And Love It

[Ry'on]

definitely a fan, the line looks like what I would expect

[gonegonegone]

does apc re-release the basic stuff every season? i really want an apc sweater and a cardigan (both in grey). if no, please contact me if you want to sell me that stuff!

[zakkaz]

Q for people who have seen the red hoody...is it fleece lined?

I have experience of a couple of apc hoodies and find them with cheap fleece lining which causes 'fluff' to get stuck to me and the t-shirt underneath.

Also, can someone comment on the fit of this particular hoody.

thanks

Jimmy, I guess you get the store catalog, not the one that's sent out to their customer list. Thanks for the pdf.

The cataloglet I received is designed by M&M Paris, comes with 8 pages of looks and a selection of products with prices, and a very awkward-looking "arty" poster.

I think I like the green pullover.

[kblk]

they are on the website now.

[Freakflag]

Shit, I have to own this coat. Does anyone know if this'll ever be online? Can't find it on the A.P.C. website...

[MiniW]

thanks a lot for the scans Jimmy.

I have to say the collection looks rather boring imo. My main critique is that they chose to do yet another interpretation of the german army inspired sneakers... has menswear become that stale? I have a feeling that a lot of the stuff will sit in the stores at full retail, and then when the deep discount sales comes around they will be snatched up quickly.

[Dead_Wizard]

Boots are better priced than I was expecting.

STFU T shirt is so goofy I kind of like it.

Pricing is all weird on the website though. Some looks certain pieces cost more, even when you click on it.

[svelten]

have to agree with the above, boring collection for APC. except the last pic, which kicks all kinds of ass

[Calden]

It looks like they are still working the bugs out of the website, I can only get to it through google cache. There are a lot of items I was hoping to see that are missing from the website, mostly winter items, so I'm assuming they put them up later in the season. The button up windbreaker looks nice, it's too bad they put that embroidered logo thing on the bottom though.

[le_chic_garcon]

I want this duffle and the jeans, but i am scared that they may be too tight.

[RAISED BY WOLVES]

I don't give a fuck about collections right now. If it is made of a well cut cloth, and it looks tight, I'll fuck with it.

Yup.

Edit: The above look is exceedingly gay

[midnight]

I love the way they call them "very tight pants". They know what they're selling and don't lie.
