Size is 40R and price range is immaterial for the most part...


Been wanting one as well. Epaulet has a crazy nice piece and given the material / build I'd say the price tag is well worth it:

Really like the BBBF one as well due to fit, but I'll kop when it's 50% off

Made in China though if that's an issue for you

I'm a 9.5UK in Trickers normally, so looks like I would be in between sizes?

Goodale premiered their Fall collection on *********** and I kinda like this denim, but the carabiner back pocket thing kinda kills it for me, not entirely a deal breaker, but they are marked down from like $183 to $49.

Probably due to the leather being matte in color and made of thin lamb.
Up close it looks much better and a bit more substantial but then you're exposed to a terrible fit pic/proportions.

That Lim jacket is pretty clearly not cut for a lot of body types, definitely try before you buy (or I guess get ready to eat fees for returning it, if you're shopping online). Lay of that collar looks kind of weird too. Also, those side-seam half belt things give me the creeps.

You know you can unclip a carabiner, right? And if the leather patch bothers you, take it off with some scissors/xacto/seam ripper.

Those jeans are awful though.

I wanted something that was less "blazer" like.
