You’d think for that price, they’d at least consult a photo. I can understand being fooled by a rep in some cases, but this is just laughable.

this is the "copleston" I just received from mr porter View attachment 2324521

Is this a j crew jacket?

Is this a j crew jacket?

no tags inside the jacket so dont know. quality is terrible.

It's a serious problem. I'm not going to use it again

In order to aid a project, I'm considering letting a few prized pieces go. Thought this maybe the best place to post, or maybe Grailed, but not sure if the latter is used much these days.

Any interest, do let me know. I'm after reasonable money for the vest considering how rare it is, and the materials used. It's a signed IT piece, Italian cashmere, filled with 100% down (excellent quality, think its Polish but could be Hungarian, can't recall), reversible to an amazing vintage African Indigo Kuba cloth. In my opinion, Hiroki at his very best. A work of sartorial art.

It's a size 3.

The Nomad was a spot FIL release, also a size 3. I'm thinking of letting that go too.

You don't see many of these. Drop me a message if interested.

Any concerns then I'm sure there's a few on here that can vouch for me.

Interested in that nomad if you still have it! Pmd

Did anyone buy or has handled an ICT Deerskin Shoulder Bag 0223903003006 and have any thoughts? Or know the retail?

What size did you order? I want to make sure I don’t order that one and be disappointed. Because I guarantee you Mr Porter is just going to put it right back in stock.

Hopefully Japan isn't next for you guys. 🥺

Anyone know which international retailers are carrying the Grenier or Kerchief? Other than Pancho, Union and Slam Jam?

does anyone have any experience with the scout plain toe boots? usually i am 10.5-11 and not sure to go 10 or 11.(trying to avoid the 10.5 on visvim and looking for a sale) for reference a 10 in 7holes was too small for me.

 

[Fycus]

I wear a size 11 and im a 9.5-10 in all visvim boots (9.5 in 73 folk and grizzly, 10 in brig and virgil etc). They fit ridiculously small- go up to a 12.

 

[botzzz]

anyone have a sense of what the "superfine" jumbo is like vs. the "ultimate" from seasons past?

 

[Fycus]

Superfine is a merino wool that is thin and smooth- it started with their athletic diffusion line then branched out into the "superfine" line which is expanded on further for aw25. Ultimate is sea island cotton which has a different hand, weight, and warmth.

Also am wondering this, they seem to be sold out instantly

Same fabric as was used in the Visvim Sport line from a few years back.

Edit: sorry, didn't see your elegant mention of "athletic diffusion" @Fycus. Was discussing this with the guys at Carmel at the AW25 trunk show too, the superfine items in the upcoming season are pretty cool.
