Shit. Same thing happened to me on my first pair... I patched it twice, then the patch ripped. Then I lost a little weight to deal with the shame and got another pair.

Hey whatsbthe safest way to ship stuff aka silver bracelet from the UK to Germany? Is ere any other reliable service except the expensive ones like fedex?

i believe you are 100% correct on the theory, but in practice it means after 4 wearings, a size S is a size XL.

As far as I know, unstable cotton in the term for cotton that isn't spun as tightly when it's woven from raw cotton. Stabilized cotton would be tighter spun and in longer/tighter strands from what I understand.

Unstable cotton would likely mean a softer hand and a less tight knit. The term shouldn't mean it would fall apart. At least any more than regular rick double layer shirts do.

Those really wispy/sheer shirts tend to develop holes pretty naturally, even more so in the rayon versions than cotton. It's hard to justify $400 for any kind of t-shirt, much less t-shirts that tend to get frequent holes in them. I love the double layer shirts and I have a few but they all end up with holes if you wear them on any kind of regular basis.

The Julius black wax corkscrew jean, does the waist fit larger than normal sizing? The website I want to order from says a size 1 is a 32" waist and a size 2 is 34". I thought, traditionally, that a sz1 fit a 28-30, sz2 30-32, and so on.

most of julius' trousers are usually meant to be worn low on the hip. so yea, a size 1 is often ~40cm. no surprise there.

Did these Ann boots ever get released from the FW10 collection? The ones 3rd from right? Seen the ones with laces on the rear for sale, but never the ones without.

I have these jeans. They're great. I'm usually a large (Italian 50), and I wear a 3, and they're loose-ish and comfortable. Not a skin tight fit. The material is pretty thick too, so the silhouette is just baggier.

So,

Size 1 = 46
Size 2 = 48
Size 3 = 50

If you're a 44, then you're not in luck I guess.

[CUTUP]

Thats a good general assumption copacetic, but....

You cant really go by that logic unfortunatly, as the cut of the jean plays such a huge role in the fit, and sizing in the waist seems to be all over the place

For example, I wear a 3 in Attachment jeans, but KK Attachment I need a 4, Julius I need between a 2 or a 3, and Geller a 48 in some, and 50 in others

I know everyone likes to try and ask for a general size guide, but it never works out for most brands, your far better off going by the measurements or asking for some if they are not listed
