    ^ Who? just sold one of those, maybe ask him... Or the man DJI.


    What is that LUC Sweater made of? Looks very warm... Is it baby alpaca?

      yeah, i bought it off of who? i just want pics of other models of destroyed ram, since this destroyed leather feels like a suede to me, unlike rick's destroyed leathers i own which feels more leathery...

          I have seen that picture of the LUC-sweater so many times now, and I'm starting to think that it's the sweater I bought! Is the one pictured the aw09 baby alpaca? I got the feeling that the picture had been around longer, and maybe was something from 07-08.

            I don't think that this is the same... It looks to me as if there is a brighter line going down the arm. Plus it seems thinner than the Baby Alpaca you bought and I decided not to get because I felt it is too warm...

              yeah, thought so, it also looks to have some "3D-effects" resembling a sweater Recht bought earlier. like veins.

                he has done a few similar ones, some have a more drastic contrast difference between the black and white, this seems a bit more evenly grey.

                  yes. and it might not be the one I talked about that rech sold either, well..anyway, it's nice.

                  EDIT: this is the one I thought about, looks a bit more extreme

                    Have you handled this piece? Is it ... thinner than the AW09 Baby Alpaca bestial has?
                    I really love those LUC knits but it's a shame alpaca is so warm. I wanna wear those on a regular basis and not just on colder winter days (when it's warm inside anyways and I wear a heavy coat outside)..
                    Well, would be a endless search for this one anyways for I have seen several persons been searching for it in my size with no luck.

                    Btw. anybody have a list of LUC online stockists?

                      I used to own that sweater - its really not that warm and you could wear it in the fall/spring.

                        you called?

                        mononon the jacket is made from a distressed reverse ram leather, from SS06 the structure I believe. there's a few floating around on Y and mbok, here's a lookbook shot:


                        afaik there aren't any other distressed leather jackets (they did make undistressed reverse ram leather jackets in both FW06 and SS07 though), the only other pieces made from a similarly destroyed leather are a few leather shirts and gloves.

                          thanks DJI!

                          edit: on another note, how's the quality of damir doma boots? worth the price for 40 off of a zippered boots, so roughly 570 after taxes and shipping?

                            ^quality is good, doesn't blow me away though, wouldn't pay 570 for it.

                              Does anyone know if the LUC raw silk cardigan is supposed to come with an extra button?

                              Bought mine from The Library and I didn't get the tag, so I'm wondering if there is more that they've forgot.
