Zippered arms are very useful when taking the Tube...you just store your tickets there and they are immediately available

I am not very familiar with that brand, but does C Diem also have womenswear? I found a leather vest that was marked down from 2100Euro to 400Euro, if anyone wants it. But it was in the womens rack, also looked more feminine.


Also KKA pants for 150euro instead 450, but only size 4 & 5. I think someone posted in help finding that he wants this size in curved leg pants?

just orderd a pair of laced ankleboots from Guidi, sz 42. that's the right size if I'm a 40? they are tagged 2 sizes too large? they had 41 but I knew I read that they where small.

bought from lazzari so I assume I can change if they end up to big.

Should be Ok, bestial.

Another Guidi question: How well does their stuff hold up over time and with wear? I presume fairly well, but I've had no experience with their stuff. Thanks.

Bestial, I usually have size 42 and wear 44 in Guidis. Lengthwise I could not fit in a 43, the 44 is rather wide though as the boots are backzips which fold forward when you put the on. 42 in lace-ups should be right for you.

thanks guys! these will fill the gap of the derbys and work well as everyday boots after.

Tried to search before posting, but couldn’t come across any good results…

I have a small hole in a sweater and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good tailor in NY that specifically has experience in mending knitwear.

Thank you.

great pick up bestial but I think these will be too big for you..

Maybe by 1 and a half sizes..

sorry.. second hand info though (with the cordovan version) so I could be wrong..

agreed i go up one size, because guidi is washed and will always strech but i do know most people do two sizes, honestly though iv owned 7-8 pairs, 4 currently and i find the sizing to be consistent im a 41 i go for 42 but really after alot of wear i think i could go for 41.5 after a couple of weeks would be perfect.
mattoe will sort you out if there is any problems, but remember they will get a size bigger than when you first try them on.

I have a pair of derbys I've worn a lot for a couple of years and I bought them second hand, they are in very good condition.

Jes is right.. I've got a pair of the taller version of those boots in sheepskin leather - I'm normally a 40 and the 41 fits perfectly. I wouldn't worry too much about .5 sizes tbh. They are def the most comfortable boots I own

I am about to cop the LUC baby alpaca sweater (as recently seen on bestial in WAYWT). Already tried it on in a 46, which was pretty tight - yet not unwearable.
Does it stretch out a bit?
And how warm is it (didn't really take notice of that when trying on)...

(already messaged bestial about that - no response yet, maybe others got experiences as well)
