My knowledge is pretty limited to Guidi and Rick. The largest Guidi I've seen is a 47 but that would probably run more like a 45.5 or so which would be closer to a 12. Kunk definitely has a collection of Rick boots and sneakers so I'm assuming there is a 46 that would fit a 13.

at the moment ccp's bestiary includes horse, kangaroo and bison (recent addition, since 2010 collection only). it used to include calf, deer, donkey, goat, pig and maybe some other that i can't remind me of. Oh, and yes, calf is still available, but as an exception, on reissues of older styles like fencing and overlock jackets.pix

It's stupid expensive, but Balmain is one of the closest heirs to the luxury rocker look Dior was working in the later seasons.
If you can find it, Nicolas Andreas Taralis still turns out some pieces that are pretty close to old dior (especially jeans and tailored wear). Also some of what Plokhov is putting out has that sharp tailoring with an edge that I appreciated about Dior.
Mostly though, don't get too caught up on brands. Take apart the looks you like and see what makes them work and try to put something similar together with what you can find/afford.
Originally posted by KingJulien View PostSo, my own small question - I've pretty much figured out what kind of aesthetic I'm interested in, and it's probably most closely aligned with the glam/rockstar look of Slimane-era DH. I've been having trouble finding labels that do this well, though. Dior at five years out is near-impossible to find, and n(n) did what I'm looking for pretty well in several seasons but the label no longer exists. I've got a few items that I really love and work well with that type of look from Raf, Balenciaga, and a couple others, but largely I have trouble finding anything that appeals to me.
Anybody have any suggestions?

Looking for some cheaper backzips to round out my shoe collection. Picked up Ann Sidezips a few months back and really like those, but want something with a slightly rounder toebox. Budget is around 400-600. What are my best bets to search for on eBay, Y!JP?
