Now owned by Colgate.


I've been using Green Tidings Organic unscented for over a year. Great stuff. $15. You can check it out here:

Thanks for the heads up, I'll def give it a try. Lately been curious to see if there were other products available that won't wear out as fast since making the switch to aluminum-free. Apparently shaving my armpits also help with the sweating too.

Speaking of denim, anyone have a recommendation for skinny-ish black jeans with not-too-low of a rise? I tried on N&F's Weird Guys and liked the leg line, but not the seat. A friend suggested I check out RgT's Stanton and SK fits, but the local shop is sold out.

Not looking to get anything too skinny, but also not looking for slim straight-legs.

I have no personal experience but I've also been looking: Momotaro x Blue Owl (skinny taper or natural taper), Big John Kuro2, Robert Geller Type 2 (nmwa), Nudie (lean dean), APC PNS.

There's always the tailor it yourself option.

JK, the answer is SLP.

I know this was sort of covered a while back with the MMM suede jacket, but I'm tempted by a suede trucker or similar.

How awful are the mainline Levi one's? Are the LVC much better? Any other options besides Aero?

I originally had Alan, at Johnson Leathers make me a slim trucker, but eventually changed to something else. You can email him about any suede in stock, and he'll make you one for a little under a thousand, if prices haven't shot up.

No idea about quality (though I've been relatively impressed with the other pieces I have from their "Trend" sortiment, but H&M have an absolutely beautiful MMM-looking suede jacket online.
Kooples (SLP copy brand) have also made nice suede truckers before + other similar brands also have

I like Acne Town since my legs are a bit big but they are kinda cropped.

I think falcon garments will be coming out with one soon, would be a good option

Yeah they're steadily improving, past 2-3 "Trend" seasons have had lots of nice-looking pieces.
Only seriously bad thing is that they cut the pants too short, even the ones that look long in their model pics.
(have two pairs of pants that flare but unfortunately they are both like 5cm too short which just makes em look weird)

You can order direct from RGT. They accept returns.
