DJI very nice deepti... again i never normally ask but interested to see it on, i may have to track one down for myself.

These would've been my first A1923 purchase, too. That deep tone of black is something else, isn't it?

Sick Deepti sweater, too. Would've bought it also if it wasn't made for people with 0% BMI.

P.S. I am sorry you have to live with carpeted floors.

thankfully the carpet is only in the bedroom and closet!

the A1923's are a great matte black, kinda hard to see with the crap lighting (overcast Seattle right?). for what it's worth I still like my Carol and grandma+ boots better but these are a nice example from what I've handled from Simone.

the Deepti is unforgivingly clingy but I was quite enamoured by it when I tried it at EM. will try to post a WAYWT with it when it gets a bit cooler around these parts.

Yeah, I came dangerously close to pulling the trigger. Still out of my budget, unfortunately.

[okayvin]

Did that and got complaints. People should also put some effort into posting. It doesn't have to be all me.

that photo is tiny now. we can't see any details

[TriggerDiscipline]

Wow, brutal. Have you tried wearing a long sleeve underneath it?

@Trigger I hear ya. Luckily the plates are only evident on me when i have my arms flexed perfectly straight which is pretty rare. Maybe it's due to my bad posture or wearing so many garments with articulated sleeves... but I typically walk around with my elbows a little bent

wait im talking about the tejana but i guess it can apply to your jacket too lmao, although because theres an actual physical object in there it bothers me less

first A1923 purchase

So nice. Best iteration of the double-zips in my opinion. Really gorgeous leather. Safe to say that I'm envious.

Am I right in assuming that it will naturally tarnish over time, in the same way that sterling silver thread will?

[dji]

that is the idea Law! from memory there was a pre-tarnished version produced as well.

I was in New York for the weekend and decided to stop by BBSNY. Absolutely awesome store with great people. Picked up a handful of pieces. P13RF "Dark Red" and TS2 from BBSNY and a pair of BAMBA 4s from Darklands Berlin.






Had to do this one in black & white. BAMBA 4 from Darklands Berlin.

Picked up a couple of Lumen Et Umbra pieces today. A pair of pants, and a long sleeve shirt. Quickly becoming one of my favourite current brands.

Marsèll boots, a great find at under $200 and with very light wear. Temporarily filling the Guidi-shaped hole in my heart...

[gregor]

that guidi shaped hole in your heart should easily be filled by marsell for quite some time. miss my pair dearly, they're a great company in every regard.

I haven't been to as many boutiques as a lot of the members here, but I'd like to think I've been to a fair share, and the service at L'Eclaireur really blew me away. They didn't push me to buy anything, but this Layer-0 coat was too good to resist. Full body shot just to show the whole coat - unfortunately lighting sucked so it's not a very good pic.

That is certainly a first.

[snafu]

In my experience i have never felt pushed to buy anything when i'v been there. Unlike other stores it one i actually feel comfortable to browse without n assistant following you around.

On the topic of that coat, i love really long coats however i think that may need taking up a touch, but like you said the lighting doesn't help.
