Surprised at the negative reaction! The only thing that gives me pause is the lower back leather panel, looks out of place to me.

It's around $400, but I've been eyeing it for months

EDIT: Now that I think about it though, the waist clasp+the throat clasp would look pretty whack unzipped/buttoned. Maybe I will pass

That margie reminds me of Zara, at first glance seems minimalist and restrained, but then they add ugly details and add a bunch of unnecessary design elements.

On their own I'd say nay, the orange trim going up the front of the boot is hideous. But given your extensive collection of Margiela, I wouldn't discount your ability to make any piece look good.

I've been debating this all weekend

white mountaineering
700


offered $400, and seller agreed. looks like END had it last year and eventually sold on sale at ~$650 after VAT deduction. 1/3 off of that for a worn jacket doesn't seem like that ridiculously good of a deal. am I crazy?
