APC Winter 08

^well said, I didn't feel like typing it out

Most of the people who complain about apc haven't seen/handled a good number of pieces. Yes it is slightly overpriced so let's not beat a dead horse again.

It's not a coincidence that the euro is marginally higher than the dollar.

to compare j Crew and H&M to APC is a
asinine

not sure what i want this f/w from apc yet... does that parka come in other colors?

the four apc pieces i bought last season are all great...

they get my money every year.

Anyone experienced with APC's accessories? I like the look of the shoulder bag this season, but am hesitant to pull the trigger. Not sure if the aforementioned gap between quality and price increases or decreases when it comes to accessories. I looked at it at le bon marche, and it certainly wasn't super heavy-weight, but honestly, I don't think I have a clue what to look for.

Agreed on the model, i think he doesn't sell the looks to well, at least to me. Like the look of the men's trench, super simple, but it's cut seems awfully large in person.

I like some of the trousers in this collection, the "fatigue-style trousers" in particular, but those, along with some of the new fabric options for new cures and new standards (grey denim, green for the "very tight jeans&quot, have hit $220, or even $240. Some of the outerwear pieces look pretty nice but I would have to handle them in person, same goes for the footwear.

For someone who isn't familiar with the line, what's the stuff that's Made in China? I've seen some coats but Made in the Ukraine. There are some nice coats this season, twee model or not.
