    Let me guess, sneakers? Plastic/rubber soles don't let air in - your feet will sweat in them much more than in leather soled shoes that cool the skin.

      Well, yes. Not only sneaks but the worst prepetrators are my Dick sneaks and Ann Dem slip-on boots (which I belive have hard rubber soles). Will adding protective soles result in the same effect or will the leather soles still have a similar effect?

        pretty sure you can buy leather insoles, but i don't know if they'll help.

          Sorry, don't think I was clear enough. I meant adding vibrams soles but maybe you were refering to insoles the whole time

            That is fine. I put vibram soles on all of my footwear. Just put it on my Guidis and they actually feel better on my feet.

              there was a lengthy discussion about this rubber soling vs breathability issue somewhere, but I think the difference is quite minimal. whatever, like Faust I add them to all my shoes, easier to replace, more comfortable and quiet to walk in, and most importantly usable in the winter.

                Just received my jacket from nakata/takuya (highly recommend seller btw, very fast and reliable).



                I like the color a lot, but I think eventually (maybe come fall), I'm gonna want a darker color, possibly grey.

                If anyone could recommend a place in or near NY/philly via PM, I would appreciate it.

                I cant take a pic of the current texture of the jacket if it would help. thanks.
                i couldn't see your fit-pic until here. if it fit me like that, i'd like to keep it.

                    got a julius blazer thats "tense weave 100% cupra/100% wool." did they ever make pants in a corresponding material...or what material is close enough to match my pants?

                      Try giving Calvin a PM. He had a CCP jacket redyed black by Poell himself.

                        P! imo, don't dye it to black color/dark color. You'll probably receive your black sheep leather jkt on tomorrow or may be monday. keep it in this current color for mix&match n' wear it until you want to do that on the next seasons.

                            Does anyone know if the Atelier NY x YSL collection jump suit is still available in size 44/46? Also, what is the price tag on the piece? And what about the CdG Homme Plus super drop crotch pants in size 44? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

                            Thanks :)

                              The CDGH+ drop crotch pants in XS = 46 (smallest size). The women's version in an S would be equivalent to a 44. Same fabric and pattern.
