      Do all RO leathers have his signature on the lining? I just received a jacket that doesn't but it does have the Olmar/Mirta tag and the label tags. It came from yoox.

      Just curious because my other RO leather has the signature on the lining.

        almost bought one, I love the concept but the snap button was kind of bulky and a bit awkward... though if I found one at half off would probably buy it and wear it occasionally. I have a leather covered broach which I sometimes wear with with a black suit. Gives it sort of a cool look without looking like a guy wearing a broach :)

            I've never seen one without it. Newer jackets tend to have a small one on a side of the lining, rather than in the middle of the back the old ones used to have. You might've missed it.

              The thing about lyocell is you can find it in a ton of finishes, so intuitively, I assume it would depend on the finish. Personally speaking, I've had a couple pieces (most feel like an extremely smooth cotton) for over three years with frequent wear and none of them have even began to pill...

                What's the deal with the long black cotton label sewn on along half the perimeter of the inside of the jeans and hanging about a foot off? I thought I had a bad pair until I saw another paid here for sale with the same thing. I'm tempted to cut the whole thing out.

                  Most of the references to Lyocell in the US are to it's brand name Tencel. Might find useful information looking at that. This may not be proper, but my favorite boxers are Tencel and they are unpilled after more wear than most any non undergarment is subjected to.

                      manufacturing error, all the jeans from this season have that

                            You're actually supposed to wrap it around your thigh towards your ankle.

                              I thought you were supposed to wrap it around your junk, you know, just in case you pop a boner.

                                this made me really laugh out loud.
