Quite some time ago there was a discussion about the prints Paul Harnden uses, someone mention and linked to a book with many fantastic prints quite similar to what Harnden uses. Does someone knows the name of the book? If I'm not mistaken it was German, but I might be wrong.

If you're curious about Haeckel, there is also a fascinating (and beautiful) documentary about him called "Proteus." https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0391407/

that's the worst area, otherwise it's just here and there throughout the whole jacket. maybe that's how this fabric ends up looking after a while anyway, that baby alpaca mix is very delicate.
also, after a few e-mail exchanges with Yoox the total price for that Stravinsky is about 85% off retail, so i guess i'll find a way to appreciate that worn look lol.

Unrelated: How do you store your leathers for winter? I don't want to hang them because some are too heavy to be hang for an extended period of time. I don't want to stack them because it might leave creases. I'm kind of puzzled. First world problems.

LOL
Anyways, maybe you roll them and put in a garment bag. I think rolling is better than folding as it helps to lessen the creasing?“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

Thanks for the rolling suggestion. That's how I pack suitcases for the same reason, I think it sounds like a winning strategy. Will report back in April. Ha. Thanks!

I just picked up a pair of the Rick Owens Tractor Dunks and I have been having some toruble breaking them in. I believe the leather on the boot is leather (read it was cow or horse I believe?)and I looked online and saw some people recommending you use a hair dryer to soften the problematic spots. Would you guys recommend this? Just afraid to irrepraibly damage the leather or should i just tough it out?

Sellari's SPS Shoe Stretch Liquid stretches any leather shoe. Softens leather so it will stretch without cracking the surface, or breaking any fibers.

Vintage stores around me really suck so I'm looking towards online sellers like ebay to start building up my collection. Sorry if this is the wrong thread, but what tips do you guys have for buying online? I'm getting my measurements taken at some point but aside from that, anything in particular I should do or look at before buying online?
