          I prefer the non-hooded version but the LEB is nice.

            Still not crazy for leather w/ hood, even though that particular jacket is nice. Just do not see the real need for hood and seems bulky.

                not sure where to post this, but has anyone been in touch with graham at re porter recently? Unusually, I've not been able to make contact with him.

                    qq about the sizing on toogood unisex outerwear. any sizing equivalents out there? i'm looking at a photographer jacket in size 2 and i'm a 46 but i'm worried it's going to be too small.

                      Julius knit denim... 4% polyurethene vs 8% polyurethene vs the 43% polyester/8% polyurethene, what are the differences in hand feel, weight, and stretch?

                        Where is Rick Owens cheapest in Asia? Willing to fly over somewhere to pick up a few pieces, I have gotten taxed 300% on a pair of jeans and deem it cheaper to fly somewhere to buy.

                          Can anyone recommend me brands to look at for eyeglasses? Tldr; black/dark-grey square-ish frames, a bit thinner than Kuboraum's Mask K3.

                          I only really wear Rick Owens these days, simple black/grey tops with black shorts/trousers and chunky sneakers. Quite a casual look as I'm back to school and don't really have the chance/desire to wear more extravagant things.

                          I'm considering the Kuboraum Mask K3 in matte black, however they are almost a bit too bold; I would be worried they would stick out a ton since I have dirty blonde hair and very fair skin. That is the point of their eye-wear, and I have a long face that I think could accommodate the frames, but I would really like some other options in similar square-ish shapes that are a bit thinner.

                          It's scary trying to buy glasses without being able to try them on, so I'd like to find a few pairs to mull over against the K3s before I pull the trigger.

                            I'd suggest Linda Farrow 71s, but they're also rather bold. Ive seen some SLP and Valentino frames that seem as though they could match your description, but i wouldn't be able to remember models or anything.

                            I'd go for the Kuboraum's though, bold is (often) good!

                              I do like the 71s and a few of the SLP frames, but the problem I have with the more mainstream brands is that their eyeglasses don't really have any personality. To me they either look like watered down sunglasses, or are indistinguishable from any other black rectangle frames save for their branding.

                              The little edge details, nose bridge and notched temple, really stand out to me on the Kuboraum K3s, while still being subtle enough that they don't scream. I wish they were a little bit thinner, but after a bit of photoshop fitting I think they will work out well. I'll still search for a few more comparison pairs, but my heart is slowly being set.

                              Thanks for your suggestions, cheers.

                                Does anyone have any experience with the rick owens granola sandals? Just picked up a pair TTS and waiting for them to arrive. They cost as much as geobaskets full price!
