Recent purchases - Part II

[FrankCowperwood]

Thanks @DeadBoy.

I emailed FarFetch and it looks like I will be able to cancel my order and reorder size 46. I should tell them I "didn't see" my referal code too... ahem.

Width is typically the issue for me. No Buttero sneakers, either. @LA Guy what size did you take in the Epaulet Chelseas? That may be where our shoe purchasing has overlapped.

Thanks for indulging me in sizing recommendations in the Recent Purchases Thread.

I took a size 11 in the Epaulet chelsas, but those are much looser on me than my Guidis, which fit me like a glove. I could probably have gone down a 1/.2 size for the same fit, I think, 10.5 or so. I feel that a 10 in the Epaulet chelseas would have been too small.

Guidis, at least mine, are incredibly comfy, even when they are fitted. I typically hate, hate, hate, glove fitting footwear, but Guidis are the exception. Once you have the right size, and they conform to your feet, I can wear mine all day long with zero discomfort. I think that it's because they have very little structure in them. There is a fairly soft heel, and then a bit of salpa in the toebox (very soft) or sometimes none at all, and none of that stuff that shape most footwear.

I was watching that awful/awesome Seattle vs Arizona game and of course couldn't pay attention for four hours of that, so I bought what I THINK is a Helmug Lang moleskin chesterfield coat. Not really interested in other fabrics, but it was only $150 so worth a roll of the dice maybe??

Looks like the one I have. Think that's around AW2004.

I was looking at that (let me know if it doesn't work out!)

Cheers, thanks for the info. Hoping it is the moleskin version.

And happy to pass it along if it doesn't work out! Wife is already mad I watched football all day and then bought a coat haha

Tag makes it seem very likely it's moleskin. I don't think he did a cotton twill in black that year. Nice find regardless at that price.

 

[t3hg0suazn]

put me on the interest list for that

 

[nahneun]

if there's anything i've learned it's that you can never have enough pants

Got some stuff in from a new Korean techwear brand called 0608. Quality is around Guerrilla-Group/surplus but it's cheap on sale. Got all this plus some running tights for approximately $AUD250.

I was looking at that bed jw ford jacket at a shop (mathematics?) in Kyoto, its v nice

[futuresailors]

Yeah, that's moleskin. Sideways fabric label means it's from the be late 90s.

Cheers, thanks for the info. Hoping it is the moleskin version.
