Small questions thread

zip it up, go to bed, lamb stretches always.

i have just worn it around the house for half an hour and it already feels better, i'm thinking that this may turn out to finally be the one

[franz]

anybody?

You should seriously consider a dry cleaner IMHO.
I do not know where you live, but no doubt there's a good, or at least above-average option in the area?
Dry-cleaning does not damage colors from what I experienced, actually it seems to preserve it and sometimes prevents color fading or dye running off later (e.g. in the case of denims, but even also simple cotton black pants that otherwise turn grey-ish after a few wash).

I already damaged some stuff of mine, I learned better and get professional help when needed.
It would be a shame to damage your carpe linen!

Thanks for that insight Franz, there's a really good dry cleaner at London Fields, I'll just take them there and see what he says. (he managed to get two year old coffee stains out of a CCP parka for me NO PROBLEM)

cool man thanks so much, never handled the kangaroo so I have no opinion but personally I just like the stiffer thicker stuff as well, aw oiled calf and hammered lamb are my 2 favorites by a lot.

asking french colleagues here, what is the best way for express shipping to US (3-4 days)? Chronopost is about 150 euros for a stuff of less than 3 kg ! What a joke !

Yes, c'est relou.

Had the same issue to dispatch a Guidi bag to a friend of mine in NY (I ended up spending the WE there actually).
At the time, I checked every option, and La Poste's "Colissimo international" is the cheapest way to go, just have your shipment insured, it will be around 40 to 50€ I think, depending on the weight and value of goods.

i have the roo intarsia from ss09 and it's one of my favorite leathers. it's super lightweight and soft, which i like. thicker, stiffer leathers don't suit me well for whatever reason (small frame maybe). the best part about kangaroo, other than the fact it sounds baller as fuck, is that it's tough as nails. i have put this thing through a lot and it has come out unscathed.

It looks like blistered lamb, the color may be DNA dust.

You should contact them at: enquiries@ln-cc.com to verify. They are very helpful and friendly.

Anybody know any black denim that measures only about 32-33" in the waist and 12"+ in the thigh at crotch while still a tapered hem?

Does anyone know where "White Label" falls on the Issey Miyake spectrum?

Can anyone who own a pair of the RO FW11 spiral boots tell me how rigid they are? I was thinking - will they slide down the leg and bunch around the calves as you walk, or will they stay up?
Thanks!
