UC blazer + knit

I've seen the pics for this zoom in and out of varoius threads, but can someone direct me to some styling/ fit pics of this blazer/ knit combo piece?

The price difference is mind boggling. I am beginning to think that maybe he made two versions?

i'm not. there's the version atelier has, and the same version that everyone else has. and then theres the price difference.

NDC. They are no Yoox. Yummy. I want a pair too. Cheap, but not unemployment cheap.

the toebox on NDC shoes always looked excessively turned up to me. looking for boots that aren't quite so long too, shortness and longish boots doesn't work

[Faust]

DJI, your foot, shoe trees and gravity will put them in place. They have shorter boots on there too. I own three pairs of NDC and I can't praise them enough. If I get some extra $$$, I will buy these to have a fourth.

price? online sellers? better fit pics?
thanks in advance

theres a long version which is nylon and $2k

and a short leather version which is $2300, I believe thats the one in the pic. not a fan of the fit on the short one, long one is pretty cool.

also this leather one similar to the one mike posted first is quite interesting

has anyone from US or Canada actually ordered from this site?

^ you can't mate they only ship within Japan, you'd need a proxy to order from them.

when do the F/W sales begin in Japan, late December?

last year they started late december.. probably early to mid december this year as the summer sales started a few weeks early too

[dji]

thanks for the info my friend goo. I'm hoping that Julius coated wool coat makes it to the sales, most Julius coats get fairly deep discounts at the end of the season (only upside to proxying from the southern hemisphere ).

hmmm, i should go later than november then...mid december you say? I have to match the exact time so that the good pieces are still available when i arrive...hahahaha

[my friend goo]

november is highly doubtful... most stores have pre-sales for a week before the actual sales, im guessing first week of december, but the boutiques (non-barneys/istean and stuff) stores are pretty tight-ass about it actually being for only people they know.
the good stuff gets pretty picked over during that week.
