Julius cropped pants

[Redhotaj]

Julius jacket with attached skirt

[lowrey]

An alternating weave on either panel with a subtly controlled rolled edge. The yarn used is top notch and has a variated color throughout in this version. The black/gray version is overdyed so when worn the center seams show the whiteness. The rolled edges require you to adjust knitting tension as you create the hat.

The freeform hat can be worn several ways... I like to tuck in the top corner and leave the other out. Some folks wear it untucked and others with both tucked.

It's a great piece and shows the complexities within something so basic on the surface. Altieri really thought about all the facets from the construction on up for this hat.

nice rundown. I have to say though that the darker versions look a lot better and bring out the detail/weave better.

I butchered mine by turning it into a regular beanie and it has since become my favourite headwear. I was initially worried of the soft cashmere breaking over time, but I've probably worn it several hundred times over the past 3-4 years, washed it in water many times and its like new, except for the alteration

Julius jacket with attached skirt

Got this blazer real cheap last year from Tokyo it looks so bad-ass when you wear it along with any of Julius' skorts/wrapped pants. Now wanting the FW12 skirted blazer real bad

Those denim cropped pants didn't work for me though....

I definitely agree. I've owned (and unfortunately lost at least one) a few of the black/gray ones and I think those are the best. Right now my go-to hat though is the dark gray/black OD LMaltieri elf hat.

Funny, my go-to right now is the light gray L'maltieri elf hat you sold me awhile back.

I got the blazer 2nd hand from Rinkan in Shibuya. I think the best places to look for Julius are:
1. Isetan Men in Shinjuku
2. LHP Harajuku and Shinjuku
3. Rinkan and Brandcollect in Shinjuku (both 2nd hand stores though)

The Daikanyama store was ok but they get sold out on everything so quickly there wasn't much to see or buy the last 2 times I visited. But seems they're selling some store-exclusive items there right now so you may be able to find those when you go there.

Isetan you can go from 10am ’coz it’s a department store. For the others, it’s safer to go after 12pm. PM me if you can’t find any of the addresses.

Not a purchase, but a find from the basement of the house my brother closed on last week...

previous owner said he got it in hawaii in the late 1950s...fits me like a glove...

[HWith]

Is it an original Schott Perfecto?

[lost53]
