    I'd say size up from your regular ccp size. As they are object tanned then dried they seem to have shrunk some. The nonjointed parts are stiff but the kangaroo leather joints are well placed and very durable. There are variations (albeit subtle) between shoes due to the processing so unfortunately its a little bit of a gamble buying them without trying them on. Best to ask more questions of the buyer!

      Hi guys, I just got this overcoat from CCP, my FIRST ccp item! The pricetag to me is pricy.. that costs around 344,000 YEN from Lift Tokyo store in Japan around 1 month ago.

      I have little knowledge about this item. But I really really love the silhouette when wearing it - razor sharp! (talk about Dior Homme by Hedi Slimane 02-03?)

      Could you tell me more about this? like the craftship..or material?
      It's from 2008 S/S collection. (I don't know why the SA told me it's from A/W collection , didn't he check the tag inside of pocket?)

      Front


      Back


      Connection? What's that? looks like connected by metal filament? but it's stretched..@_@






      yeah,again..


      Button/


      Thank you! plz feed me with more info.

        looks like the invisible seam long coat. very very nice. i'm assuming that it's 100% cotton (check the tag). what's unique about the piece is that the seams are connected by a fish wire type material that lets the seams expand. it's a nice effect. looks like he used glue to place on the seams, but usually he uses tape to cover the them. the cut of the coat is classic carol. very nice.
        Did you get and like the larger dick?

          Damn man, buying a $3500+ item sight unseen without knowing the details... crazy!

          It's definitely current season. It's a glue seamed classic CCP coat with his clear thread seams (invisiseam) that is designed to stretch when you wear it for an interesting effect.

          Congrats. Beautiful piece!

                Nothing wrong with the blazer.

                  i found the long coat less rigid and more dramatic and the invisiseams for me were more successful or reached their ultimate design peak.

                  the blazer was impossible for me to move comfortably in. but then again i don't own it and objects in mirror are known to improve w actual wear.

                    I did get a 50 instead of 48 and its quite comfortable but I see what you mean.

                    Great piece Shawn.

                          How is the button attached? Is it a working buttonhole or does it just give the appearance of one..?

                            I reckon for CCP, it ought to be working.

                              I reckon for CCP, it ought to be working. From the pics, it looks like the button is fitted in the workings of a cufflink.

                                Was it cut tighter? Wouldn't sizing up mess with the fit or are you say, a 49?
