[the breaks]

The interview is definitely old, I remember reading that “It sort of just happened” -bit a while ago.

[Fade to Black]

yeah i recognized a few bits in there, i dig Rick's humorous and healthy mien in contrast to the darker themes and philosophies he projects through his work though.

Question re RO leather

I am considering one of the asymmetrical leather jackets from this season. The leather is washed and kind of stiff. The jacket fits very tightly, but I'm told it will stretch /give a bit over time. Is that the experience of the esteemed board members here? Thanks in advance.

they stretch IME but they don;t stretch a whole size by any stretch.

[mrbeuys]

Yup
Bauhaus in oiled calf. Serious jacket.

just curious what's everyones final verdict on the hammered lambskin. i have been mulling over a jacket but can't be sure if i'll be happy with that leather in the long run. i am not too fond of it on the rack but i wonder if it will break in and look better and less plasticky than it initially appears.

[philip nod]

fail at the hammer.

[mrbeuys]

fail at the hammer.

look who's back.
I have both and while I think the oiled calf is the better look I prefer wearing the hammered one. It was really stiff but now it's soft as and just more pleasant. Oiled calf has something sticky and, uhm... oily.

Would it be ossible to see a pic of the worn in hammered lamb?

totally agree

this new breed of 'get to 100 post' noobs are really starting to suck the life out of the forum.
