Yea, definitely. His footwear is gnarly to begin with but that white is just a whole 'nother level. With that said, the white boot this season looks a bit better from the last, it's more, dirty. I kinda like it.

The pictures from the SS08 collection really make me want to try it too.

[quote user="philip nod"]i think you can only do ccp white if you are satifisfied w the greys and blacks in your collection. you def. can't just go cold into a store and sit down with a ccp white leather boot and buy it. its way too traumatizing. i tried it once.

how does one go about that?

Re: Carol Christian Poell

you buy, in my case, a pair of grey and black ccp boots, and feel like you can comtemplate a white pair then.

Hmmm, I find that challenging. I buy a pair of black boots, and then buy another pair of black boots.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

yes, i think you might not be the only one who subscribes to the black boot approach [73]. but once you buy the white boots, i can only imagine that your desire to get another pair of black ones is feverish.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

i was super hesitant on those white boots, but looking at them on the A site makes them look pretty fucking good.

The greyparka-chute is amazing!

On a side note, I had similar issues to mike lowrey withmy jointed knee paper cotton trousers tearing at the seams... This is due to the non-woven nature of the fabric... Contacted CCP directly and they were again very gracious to offer a repair or replacement... I opted for a replacement in wool...

It's a pity because the material is really so amazing to touch and I would like to see this material re-done with a stronger mesh/wovenunderstructure...

The following image may be distressing to some viewers... discretion is advised...

Holy shit, that's painful to see! Well, at least they're doing by sending you a new pair.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

OUCH! Well hey, at least we know CCP does right by their product and will replace it. A+ for that.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

Re: Carol Christian Poell



i have my own issues with ccp quality control. i'll post a picture in a sec.

edit:

i've been e-mailing with a worker at ccp. should be an easy fix, but would still like to hear what they say.
