Ask J_J or jevna.

Is anyone aware where the factory producing RO garments is located? I heard that you can buy items from previous collections there... And the same about his footwear (I beleive it's another manufacturer).

I'm planning to travel across Italy and hope to find some good items there)

Yes its possible to buy garments there, and sometimes even get great deals on the price, but I don't think its a case of the sales being available all the time...........I think they have a specific time when its done.........of the exact time I am not sure, but yea, as Faust said Jevna should know

Sales at the Olmar and Mirta factory outlet take place only two times a year, in september/october and in march (iirc), but the time of the very good deals is now over. In addition, the most interesting stuff is sold very quickly, during the first days.

And what about footwear? I beleive it's produced on a different factory. Or it's Olmar and Mirta as well?

Footwear is there as well.
And Gareth Pugh too.

Oh come on, mate. We are just teasing you. You ain't been here long enough I guess... Really, we all love each other. Except for Kunk and Agent L, but that's another story

[Faust]

imparfait, stop shitting up this thread, now.

Move it if this question is in the wrong place.
Can anyone give a breakdown of the rick leather types and the letters that represent them?
I know
LP = Hammered Lamb
LO = Oiled Calf
anyone know what LY is?
if there's a link or discussion of this previously(I'm sure there is) I would appreciate some guidance towards that. thanks

[magic]

i cant remember how many times these has been discussed...

[kunk75]

i think i have seen all of Limo and there is nothing I can't live without

[mrbeuys]

ok, you're still gonna buy stuff tho, right?

[kunk75]

^ha. I really don't think so. I desperately wanted the flight jacket but the fit was boxy as all hell, even in a 52. The shearlings were all fails for me. I wish the numbering system were available when the showtek was around as a 54 might have made the cut. The knits are all seemingly reissues or barely retakes. If anything, maybe just a cashmere liner.
