      it seems like gareth pugh is something kinda "risky" (prohibitive price/ableness to resell) to be convinced in to. my opinion is that i'd skip these and keep looking. have you been able to try them on? from my experience they fit a bit awkward in the thigh in comaprison to the ultra wide hem.

              For me, being an old-school raver, I kinda feel like Gareth just made raver pants high fashion and somehow got away with charging a lot for them.

              I also echo F*CK no!

              If you want flared pants that have a perfect fit and at least have some underground culture context, then just ask a raver to make you a pair.

              If you want to pay $500+, then save the cash and buy something more substantial. His tops are nice....

              Just my opinion of course. Others will come to hate me for it. haha

                Yes to the jacket.

                No to the pants - flares just don't flatter anyone, particularly not men.

                  What to the zips do? If they alter the shape of the jacket, then they have a purpose.

                  If they are just decorative, then fuggit.

                      What size are you wearing? Was considering that beauty as a thumb ring too.

                          The W:M ring is a lovely piece. I just received my W:M rings and am so tempted to get some more.

                              Thinking about picking these up, but uncertain about those zips. Opinions/experiences?

                                Not really a fan in terms of esthetics, but my main concern would be about comfort: if you wear pants tucked in the boots, you risk to damage the fabric.
                                If you wear the pants above the boots, you risk damaging the fabric AND your skin. So I'd pass on these from the looks of it, but haven't tried them...

                                Speaking of CCP boots, this brings me to my "Yes or No":

                                I'm in discussions with a seller on ebay who has only one rating (but then again, I have one positive and one negative for a deal I cancelled, so...)
                                It's a pair of CCP 2007 cordovan sidezips I noticed here among the "Good finds". Size seems ok from the measurements I received.
                                I've been discussing with the seller and it appears I have an opportunity to get them under 700$ shipped which looks like a good price (especially from europe) but... I feel like this is a case of adverse selection : if the boots have not been sold yet, might there be a problem I'am not seeing?
                                Thanks!
