Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

[flowcharts]

@OccultaVexillum were they too elongated or what? I'd half-considered them a couple times

Hi guys, what are your thought of this bomber/denim? I’m looking for a interesting jacket mainly bomber, but I find most boring or too flashy.

The sleeves can be changed to denim.

Thanks

Do Ann D jackets/blousons generally fit TTS or (as I seem to believe without quite knowing why) large? There's one on final sale I'm eyeing but the store is being extremely uncommunicative (and I can't find it anywhere else).

I haven't purchased anything recently but my old stuff varied wildly.

^ agree with that for Ann-era things but the recent season things I've tried were pretty much TTS in a slim way.

@yunBW looks hard to pull off unless you're Young Thug or something

I've bought a lot of recent AnnD stuff (though ended up returning or selling all of it...) and I've found it all to run somewhere along the lines of true-to-size, with some variation based on how the piece is supposed to fit. Structured blazers are TTS with narrow shoulders, unstructured blazers are TTS but slightly oversized (in some cases you can size down for a slimmer fit), jackets can vary but are generally the same - TTS for, say, her denim jackets, with some of the bombers running oversized. That's been my experience.

sup guys long time no talk. i want to get a wool overcoat type thing. just something simple, ideally hooded, mid length because i'm short and available in small people sizes. i'm broke-ish so something cheap and or used is ideal. was looking at the universal works mountain parka but i'm worried it'll be too long and the pockets too low. something like the arpenteur mevi coat would be perfect. grey or camel colored.

I like the arpenteur mevi coat. It is worth to consider. Indeed, I like the clothes at Beubien. I didn't know it the last time I was in Paris. Perhaps, I will check the store out the next time I am there.

Grenson is a good entry level maker but I'm unfamiliar with any line in that price range. Most are $300+

Their highest line compared favorably with C&J

I second that!

can't remember if you'd be a 1 or 2 in ts(s) (i'm a 2 at 5'5" 145lb). also, forget the hood and buy a hat

TS(S) Size 1

EG Duffle (FW09?)

Uniqlo U

woah that ts(s) is perfect and cheap enough to take a gamble on. thank you! although why is blowz shop on the global rakuten if they don't ship overseas???

Have you ever tried clothes from the brand before? In my experience,
European clothes usually run a bit smaller compared to the same sizes with US clothes.

Just my 2 cents.
