Saint Laurent Paris - Official Thread.

I regret throwing so much money into the brand and at Kering. It's like going to the strip club and dropping a couple stacks in the vip for some head relief only to get swiftly thrown out by the bouncers.

Thanks guys, will look out for a pair of D10s. Regrettably my experience with D02s has not been that good. I had it hemmed a while back and tried it out on a recent trip. Frankly it can't be called skinny any more, really more "slim." I had another pair of jeans--lightly coated grey Rag & Bone denim in Fit 1 (their slimmest right now, low-rise, 5.75"/14cm leg opening)--and it fit me way better, esp. with the 60mm Chelseas. I hate how the knees of the D02s bagged out, really. That wrecks the silhouette SLP denim should feature IMO. Not sure if I just got a bad season or whatever, but I'll give D10s a shot.

Where do you find d10's nowadays? Looking for a plain black pair but there are so many variations.

Rag and Bone is good. I like the opening on the denim. The opening on rb is much better than slp I must say - the stretch helps with getting on and off too. But the rear area bugs me. It seems very wide.. especially compared to slp.
I believe it's the pockets. Seating just seems, idk odd.

100000% agree with @Prudy . D10+ French 85s is one of my favorite combos. I don't daily my French 85's but I wear them every chance I get. I've been thinking about the Wyatt 60 Harness to wear daily as the toe on the Wyatt is a bit more wearable with more casual wear in my eyes. Anyone have the Wyatt 60 Harness care to share their opinion?

Not the best "fit" shot, but here is a pic of the FW16 D10 and French 85's

How do the D10 fit? If im a 27/28 in D02, should just get a 27?

Cool denim discussion. I didn't realize the subtle difference between the D10 and LWs. Any particular reason why mid-waist sits better?

On another note, does anyone have experience on the Hunting Rucksacks (leather and canvas)? I have a couple of the SLP backpacks, and was thinking about mixing it up. Are the Hunting versions easy to open and close (I'm that lazy), and at least decent quality? Thanks!

Thanks! I prob need a 27 or 28, but I'll search around.

Do all plain denim colors (not pre washed) fade and whisker? Sorry a weird question but I love how my black denims are fading with regular use. Looking to get another pair that is a plain medium blue color..

What denim doesn't bag out at the knees? Pretty sure that's just through general wear and time. If you wash your denim, I assume they would revert back to normal.

I'm pretty sure mid-waist visually increases the length of your legs, plus there's more room for your junk and what not haha.

Can anyone give me a firm answer on sizing in SL sneakers? I had the SL/01 high tops in 11.5, and they fit. I want to get a pair of the low top SL/01's, do they fit the same as the high tops or should I adjust down half a size? I usually run a 44/11 in Common Projects, 12 in MMM/Nike, but SLP high tops were kinda weird coming in at a 44.5/11.5

I'd go 27. The D10 sit above your hip bone and on your true waist which for most people a smaller measurement... unless you have a big belly.

 

[ryancruisex]

anywhere that sells for similar price in the 29?
They also have the black suede wyatt's i want, just need .5 bigger

 

[Kallipagan]

How soft is Italian denim compared to Japanese denim? The D01's I have are MIJ and the feel and weight of them are perfect and I've been wanting to find more that would feel the same, I'm just afraid that since mine are from FW13 that the quality of other seasons won't be the same.

hi all,

i picked up the SS17 snake bomber a week or so ago and thought i'd share it here if anyone was interested in it or thinking of copping it themselves. it's great. i'm not really a fan of most of the new designs coming in (the dinosaurs, the sharks, 'sweet dreams', etc.--far too cheap and gaudy for me, and, i gather, a lot of other people as well), but the snake caught my eye because it's so classic and understated. the snake is really well executed--the way it loops around itself and the emerald green eyes in the gold casings are inspired. the construction is very intricate, too--the snake is made from black sequins stitched on to glass fibre that looks like scales. the fabric (100% viscose) is super fine, deep black and very shiny. fit-wise it's severely cropped (i.e. hits the hips/belt line; you pretty much have to tuck in your shirt otherwise you'll have a wide, unsightly strip of shirt hanging out below the jacket hem that divides your body in two ://), with long sleeves that puff up at the wrists. i've attached some pics; once again apologies for the atrocious lighting in my room. i can try to take more if anyone wants.

i also copped the calf L17 if anyone wants to see some pics/know more about it. it's a shame they're discontinuing it--the L01 is fantastic (in fact i'd decided months ago that i was going to get the L01, but i changed my mind to the L17 at the last moment) but i can't help but feel that the L17 is slightly more interesting; it's more detailed than the very simple L01, which to me actually started to look a bit plain after trying it on a few times. also the calf leather is way thicker and more durable than the lamb and i didn't want to drop $5k on a jacket only to be terrified every time i wore it that the lamb would stretch or scratch.
