    Re: Carol Christian Poell



    Yea, if they're considerably more, then I might have to pass.



    And Albert, what do you mean by having them half clasped?





    They do look pretty gnarly...A lot different than the other boots Poell has made that's for sure.

        Re: Carol Christian Poell



        I'm thinking about something like not doing the top to clasps sort of like how the diagonal zips dont have to be zipped up all the way for that tucked-in but not a militant look you know?




        I just don't know how the boots'll look half-clasped (or if the clanking sounds will drive you insane hahahhaha)

          I think whoever stole all that stuff was just some crazy fan or something....It'd be kind of obvious if some of his ideas started hitting the shelves under another clothing name...

          um like i said AUGUSTA?!?!

          BTW.... think over those clasp front boots... my first reaction was "holy shit... baller!" but I don't think they're anywhere near as versatile as his diagonal zips. The clasp front boots pretty much require you to have your pants tucked in, or over them... don't know how it'll roll with it half-clasped. Depends on your steez though I suppose. It's why I let the wraparounds go, you either gotta go straight military with them wrapped around or under pants... where they look like every other CCP boot.




          ....but Seal has these boots and rocks them hahahaa




          I think someone asked EM when they first hit... don't remember the exact cost but they were definitely a decent amount higher than the regular diagonal zips



          [/quote]



          Yeah, If memory serves they were selling at EM for right around $1800 shipped to the US. Maxfield was carrying these as well Cas. They should be receiving the S/S 08 any day now, so it may very well be a worthy trip up for you. And they have stuff from 05 to recent as well, so it'll be a fun browse for sure. [75]

                Damn, with my time zone, I only seem to be catching the pre-game cheer
                and by the time I wake up it's already the post-game conference.

                Sorry if I appeared to be confusing the terms--that's exactly what I meant. [:$] And the value that he assigns to his work in a given year should not be diminished simply because it's no longer his latest.

                Ah, gotcha. Agreed! (I wasn't directing it towards you or anyone in particular, I just wanted to be sure we were all on the same page) [66]



                Hrm, with these Augusta copies, I wonder what can be said about the value of repetition...







                Oh, and Albert, is that amazingly ugly & beautiful rabbit shearling frankenstein glove you posted from the same season as this one?

                        Re: Carol Christian Poell



                        i traded albert for them.



                        got them for winter.



                        wore them once. they ripped. w no pressure at all applied.



                        had them repaired by chris french.



                        they ripped again, this time on the other side of the carol seam of the orignial rip.



                        sent them to carol.



                        usps fucked the tracking. thought they were lost.



                        ccp got them almost a month later.



                        now its spring. cant really wear them.



                        they should be returned soon, hopefully with a new brain and new unrecognizable look [79]

                            Yea, it's just the standard taped seam crew neck shirt. Maxfield also ordered the same one and A has the grey one.

                              Yeah it's been pretty terrible. I feel horrible for sending P something that ended up being defective (!!!). I'm awaiting the results from CCP and hope that they bring something BALLER back to Pnids.




                              As for the alternate version that I posted a photo of... I've not seen it around actually. Probably one of those experimental pieces. If I had unlimited funds... I'd collect all of that stuff and put it into a glass case....

                                I remember seeing those buckle boots at maxfield last month and I was surprised that the buckles are actually rusty at some parts...
