    Re: What are you wearing today?



    [quote user="xcoldricex"]ah must you remind me of that auction - any info on that label? is it cheap? :)

    Thanks for the positive comments, guys. The shirt&#39;s fit is actually pretty cool. It&#39;s pretty long and slim on me (6&#39;, 170lb). Construction is okay, but I think the concept is great. It reminds me more of a mature fashion grad student work than anything, but for the price, I think it&#39;s worth it. </p>

    </p>

    Here&#39;s some more info from the label I just found, a letter written by the designers themselves. Apparently they even had a shop in Covent Garden. Funny I never saw it while in London. </p>

    Dear Aaron</p>


    Yes you are in the right place ,sadly the old Burro company had to cease

    business but we are still designing menswear for other people , we are not

    producing a Burro range in the UK at the moment but we have done a small

    custom range of Ts and sweats for Japan (catalogue attached) in there we

    have done a T collaboration with some young designers called Wastin My Time.</p>


    Items in the custom Japan range from &pound;14 bag to &pound;49 hoody ,Ts are &pound;35 and

    Sweats &pound;40 and &pound;45 we have not really sold this to retail customers in the

    UK which is why there no proper printed catalogue sorry the reproductions

    not great as it was just for our records .</p>


    Also be a licenced range in Japan very soon (they design the range we

    endorse it) it will be online for SS07 at www.burrojapan.com the sight is

    not live yet though. We closed the old Burro website but are in the process

    of doing a new one where we will post updates on any Burroesque

    collaborations . We expect to produce a UK range again soon.</p>


    We might be able to do you a custom camo jacket as we had some left over

    stock in the studio I&#39;ll check for XL.If you are interested let me know and

    we&#39;&#39;ll work out a price.</p>


    Thankyou for your e-mail and your custom we have had quite a few fans get in

    touch and it&#39;s really heartening to be appretiated for our creativity and

    independent spirit.</p>


    Best regards</p>

                          Good to see new faces on here, coldrice I like the sweater on you!
                          Suddenly my camera seems to be broken, the menu screen is grey so I can&#39;t set the time or any other settings, but it still takes pics. Tried to get a decent pic in the mirror. I didn&#39;t actually wear this today but it&#39;s my new suit (see recent purchases), hopefully you can see the gorgeous fit in the pics at least. I don&#39;t have many occasions to wear a suit, but I can see getting a lot of use out of the jacket and pants as seperates.</p>

                            Yeah, Case, that is one of the nicer fitting suits I&#39;ve seen recently, the pants especially! I&#39;d like to see it open, too, it looks like the buttons tug a little bit at the sides of the jacket. I imagine that&#39;s pretty hard to avoid with Dior-slim sizing. Are you going to alter the sleeve length to show some cuff, or keep it like that?

                              Thanks servo, yea I love the pants. It seems many designers forget about the pants because so much goes into the jacket then you get some ill fitting or overly baggy pants with a nice fitted top. I actually don&#39;t mind a little tug, and I don&#39;t think it&#39;s too much, if I stand perfectly still and upright there&#39;s no pulling and if I would&#39;ve sized up the waist would be huge and it wouldn&#39;t have that special Dior fit. But I definitely can&#39;t gain any holiday pounds or wear a sweater under it. It does look good open too, has a lot of structure so it stays close to the body.

                                casem - of all your posts this one takes the cake, I like it better when you dont chop your head off in the picture as well, less akward some how. anyways great fit!
