    ^^agreed.

    the "found aviator" is entirely unbelievable. i admire his ability to gain access but i never want to read another interview of his again. counting the rick and ma+ that makes 2 interviews about him i've read already. thats enough

      ^^ If it is the sleeves aviator that he found, that's the one I bought from him. To me he said that he got this "sample" from a store as a gift. He had never worn nor washed it. The latter may be true because the thing reeked like ballshit (musk cologne or something) and i've found like 4 holes in it and the label couldn't be read anymore.

      I really want to believe his salestory about this being a gift and that he lied about the condition being unworn (not about the not washing, it's disgusting in both stories). But his interview story sounds like something more likely actually due to the smell and terrible condition he sold it to me.

      Holes now fixed and smell after multiple washes almost gone
      It was "dirt"-cheap anyway

        What!!! The guy found my aviator!!! FINALLY!!! I've been looking for it for ages, wandering the streets like a wraith!!! I was out one night riding my pet llama with my friend Elvis when we got attacked by giant bats who stole my aviator - I guess they must've dumped it when they found it didn't fit!!! Anyhoo, please PM me and I'll let you know the address to send it to. Cheers!

                does have the baseball tee vibe but the back is solid black, which helps. and the sleeves are slim and long, not 3/4. in the end it is very cool...

                  If this is working the way I think it is in my head...both sleeves are not created from the same panel. Therefore the back must have some sort of seam on it as well...making it no different from the front panel. So if that's case, I find the front being a different panel color strange...and not very ma+...

                  edit: Ohh wait, now that I think about it...the back and two sleeves CAN be the same panel. Ohhhh Maurizio you sly fox you...

                    I really don't like when the ts have a red cross. That is just my opinion but it really takes away from the piece for me.

                    That being said, I love the subtle placement of the siver crosses on the garments (sleeve, bottom of pant leg etc.).

                      Agreed, it's like having a target on your body. The only Red Cross I support is

                        I agree as well, I love the silver cross logo more the red cross

                        Especially a fabric red cross tag on sleeve or bottom pant. I do not really like.

                              Swami's post looks to be the current season with the slimmer toe and soft sole. The second pic is Individual Sentiments though...

                                Sinbad, I love that boot design. I still want the original one that he created though with stiffer leather and a slightly shorter upper. I prefer that one to all of the later iterations.
