Depends on how much you're willing to pay for expensive streetwear I guess. I'm under the impression they retail for quite a bit less than that though -- like 15k jpy? Haven't kept up with them for about half a decade, though.

Man just found out those feit slip ons are made in china for half a stack like wtf.

Even if they're made by master leather craftsmen in guangzhou I don't give a ****.


Yeah, my wool hikers were made in China, but the craftsmanship is pretty impressive, for half off anyway.

I'm going to my nieces wedding next Friday and torn on what to wear. They are both very young, neither into clothing and very conservative. Was initially thinking a light summer suit, but now I'm thinking a matched suit may still be too formal for them so maybe just a nice white Linen jacket with dockers and loafers.

Any suggestions?
You know them better than I. A white linen jacket may not be ideal if the ceremony and reception are indoors.

Depends on the shoe. I sized down one for the wool hikers, and it's the right size. The Feit website has sizing advice for each shoe, or just give them a call.


Just hit up Apartment Number 9 and Meyvn. Jacob at Mevyn was nice, and we chatted about the brands. Great shop. It was great to see Niuhans and Story Mfg in person.

i just recently quit my job of 6 years (salesman/floor manager/closer at a car dealership) and will start a new job next week working for Etsy. for the first time in my life i have a job that doesnt require a specific dress code! it feels great that i can submerge myself in jawns again and not worry about my manager asking me to go home and change because "i'm dressed too intimidating for customers." 0/10

i haven't been active much lately, but it's good to see a lot of the same members are still around!

i started as a salesman then was promoted to floor manager/closer, which is pretty much still a salesman, but on top of that i was the guy that came in to close a deal if a colleague was having issues. so yes pretty much i was the douche that comes over when you wont agree to buy a car to pressure you some more.

Is anybody making an indigo dyed linen trucker jacket (or bomber jacket)? I've found both made with indigo french terry, canvas and ventile, but no linen.
