        No, instead let me know were you would want to buy it from
        This is very high on my wantlist. Don't know if it is worth the money, but it's a great looking parka for sure. Which color though and is it this model?

              Would definitely advise against buying it without trying it on first. Tried on the exact same coat in my size in CCP (48) at Degli Effetti and the fit was very, very poor. Didn't fit well on the torso even though I'm super skinny and the elbow prosthetics were way too high (but I do have somewhat monkey arms).

                Agreed. Anything with precise details, like elbow, knee, zippered legs, etc., should be tried on in person.

                    ah the usual CCP crapshoot.. I waited 8 months for the first ever custom order of a size 42 high neck, by some miracle it ended up fitting perfectly.

                      This goes in against the nature of CCP. It should be ill-fitting and give distorted silhouettes and the titanium protection should hurt you

                        I was thinking of picking up some boots and saw some used Buttero boots (hopefully they fit) for $200. He said they have barely been used, here are some picks: 1, 2.

                          that would be bearable if they didn't go for half that on rakuten, and were a little nicer on the eyes.

                            Forgot about rakuten there, I'll definitely check it out.
                            I'm guessing you mean they don't look good, so is there something else you would suggest in terms of lace up boots?

                              The world is your oyster if the only criteria is that they are 'lace up boots'.

                              What is it that you like about them? What do you want to wear the boots with? Or is this more of a price range decision?

                                Waffling between this Layer-0 leather in horse leather or a CCP scarstitch. Only reason I'd prefer the CCP is because it goes better with my (ugh) business casual wardrobe - looks fine with a tucked button-up and slacks.
