Yeah if you're looking for something close to the ankle then just get something that fits you well and hem them.

Hello!

My college recently moved to a new building and its really cold, some crazy aircon even thou i come from all year round summer country..

Was thinking of getting M.A+ Aviator jacket? Has anyone come across owning one? Is it practical to get one? The length of sleeve is longer than the length of jacket itself.. felt like it will disturb me writing using a pen.


or if anyone could recommend me other jackets? not too thick as well!

thanks!

/\ I don't know how warm the MA+ aviators are, but they seem to be of pretty thin fabric, don't think that is the best choice if your building is "really cold". I'd look into a BBS ninja zip, they're very warm and comfortable, the thumbhole construction is either a plus or a negative for writing depending how you see it (I think it makes writing notes better in class over long periods of time).

Anyone got experience with The Last Conspiracy sneakers this season?
Planning to get these http://shop.thelastconspiracy.com/co...roducts/bergar but i cant figure out the sizing.

I wear 43 from Common Projects and US 10.5 from Nike for reference.

Size up for half size on The Last Conspiracy -- I'm a spot on 10.5 and wear a 44 in the Gest Mat model. 43 in ramones and 10.5 for Creative Recreation sneakers for reference.

No problem. Spectacular craftsmanship for the money coming out of that brand IMO.

Hahaha the last part, ignore the writing note part, makes my question sounded dumb.

I'll look into the bbs as well! thanks!

What other materials have been featured in the Drkshdw Detroit cut besides cotton and cotton-stretch?

[DudleyGray]

Does anyone know how Rick does his leather treatments? I don't understand how blistered lamb looks/feels like that. Or even the reverse mohawk or cracked leather. Hammered lamb is a little easier to assume it's just beaten, but it ends up looking kind of like a polished stone so it's still kind of 'oh it must be magic' to me.

[the breaks]

The blistering baffles me too.

[guardimp]

While not safe for home it would not be that hard to get the blistered effects with a bit of chemical application to the outer surface when creating the jacket. Depending on the desired amount of blistering and/or required cohesiveness of the jacket you could do it before putting the pattern together or when the leather shell is assembled.
