@JohnElliot is the moderator of the forum and should ban this guy ^^. He's not leaving any helpful feedback in regards to anything John Elliott related and resorting to violent and vulgar language?

I love when folks let me know where to cop from when John Elliott's website sells out of a particular item. The OS hoodie has been long gone, and a ton of us probably would not have been able to get our hands on it if we weren't given a heads up on this forum that xhibition, machus or unkwn mi received stock. This thread is a John Elliott thread--we're here, because like @gerg99 said, we have a similar liking and respect for the brand. Whether it's discussion opinions on current items, or hopeful future releases, sizing, size OOS--where to cop; that's the whole point of this thread.

Let's get this thread back on track. I wasn't able to give my full opinion earlier on the paneled flight jacket bc I was typing it up on my phone, but yea it's Made in China, and I know that doesn't been it's going to be subpar quality than if it was made in the US, so that wasn't the entire deciding factor of me wanting to return it. It's a great jacket for a great price, but it does have that rugged running through vietnam look, and it's just a little too rugged for me. Fit is definitely cool and oversized, I thought it was kind of big on me. Good product for a good price, just not right for me.

you have zero respect for the brand actually. do you think the ethos of the brand is sizing inquiries and dumb questions about fabrication? good luck getting me banned here

The sizing **** is annoying just buy two of what you think will work the best, then return the other - whala. JE is a low priced brand compared to many on SF such as SLP. If you can't afford to cough out double for a mere two weeks you probably shouldnt be buying $200 sweatpants and hoodies.

I'd like to see pics of the olive paneled flight jacket if anyone's got em. I'm curious about the color shade, the filters on the site make it seem much brighter green than I expected.

This thread is now how I imagine KTT/NT/HB forums to be like.

Fwiw gray paint spatter was the best denim from this release. Spring was underwhelming in person.

Yea i'm looking for pics of the olive paneled flight jacket so I can convince myself it's too bright so I don't cop haha. I'm daydreaming about that damn jacket. I went to buy the small black 5 min after release and it was sold out. Not even mad.

NT high end section is nothing like this lol. Everybody pretty much helps each other. Still get the sizing questions over and over but either people help or skip over it.

Anyway got my zincs from the tailor and now they passed my knee ripped rag and bones up as my favorite pair! Got the leg opening tailored to match my rags (14.75 - 15 cm I believe )

What's your shoe size? I want to tailor mine a bit too but with my size 10 feet it's hard to get the jeans on. In the past only way to tailor skinny was to remove the hem.

Zincs are also my new favorite pair of jeans. Ended up picking up a Cast 2 Coast pair and love those too.

Used to wear only BLK DNM Jeans 25 -- have to say these are a step up.
