On a another note, ordered the royal rider with the money I had set towards raider tickets. I think I'll get more use from the royal vs pink. I'll see how I feel about the vent once I see it.

It's not unique like the purl or raschel, but it's definitely a heavy, quality cotton. Made in Japan, for whatever that's worth. Doesn't mean much to me, but it may to others. I'm just really digging the wash and uniqueness of the shirt.


did you size the skittles tee the same as your purl gray size? do they fit the same as oversized tees? arent they the same model?

I went XL on my purl, but I never posted any pics of that in here. You will see in the pic where I am laying them on top of each other that the main difference seems to be in the chest width. Shoulders looked about the same and length was a tad longer on the XL. Keep in mind that the purl is definitely a more form-fitting material. I don't know if you got any of the OS cropped tees from RTV, but the weight of this shirt is about the same.

Mr. P almost out of the skittles tee. I will be returning the XL, so if you're interested keep an eye out. I can also just sell it to you.

Looks like you will see a lot more of it. Delivery 2 lookbook tomorrow

Oh man, just saw that. Lookbook days are rollercoaster rides..
Half of me wants everything to be amazing, half of me hopes the majority is a pass $$ ha.

Thanks whoever returned the Classic Curve (M) in white to MP - Got it. Days of refreshing worked a treat.

Guys,

Does any of you own both the biker and the summer biker? It's unlikely but I'm having some trouble deciding so figured I'd ask about impressions.


I've owned both Summer Riders and tried on the majority of the other jackets. What's your question?

And just an FYI for some people talking on the Summer Rider, they definitely updated the fit on this years. If you have last years, this one does fit better.
