trying to find retailers for Engineered Garments that sell size XS shirts or 28 waist pants... So far I've found Haven and Context Clothing. Seems like End, Bureau, and brick/mortar stores here in SF only go to small and 30 waist sizes.

Has anyone attempted to unshrink jeans by wearing them in a bathtub for 15 min then out of the tub for an hour? Some claim it works. Wondering if anyone has first hand experience.

[Julio]

would anyone know if i should size sk8 hi decons the exact same way i've sized my CT 70s

[wax]

are brown topcoats cool or fool?

[Francks]

How does this sweater fit?

Anyone has tried it already? http://www.margarethowell.co.uk/men-aw1 ... st-granite

[JewTurk]

Where can I find some basic ass jeans in a similar wash for relatively cheap?



Didn't have any luck at Levis outlet stores or Old Navy etc.

I own a dark grey and a navy pair of semi-formal pants, what color blazer can I/should I wear with them? I was thinking something olive/dark green butI have no experience really with blazers

[bels]

replace the navy pants with another pair of grey and get a navy blazer.

[pirxthepilot]

will i have trouble 'matching' these cdg trou if i break my temporary no cop for them? (fabric is wool, slightly waffled texture)

[bels]

matching them with what?

They don't look like they'll go with your collection of topcoats particularly well but I might be wrong.

[pirxthepilot]

yea, this is the problem, i like them a lot but not sure what i'd wear them with. i wear wool overshirts and snowman-type smocks in spring but trou are prob a bit too formal-looking for that? all i can think would work is some type of comme-esque black blazer or cardigan over white shirt.

[bels]

Formal looking? I was thinking the problem is the opposite. They look like they have knee pads/gussets from here. Are they finished with a different material on the back or is it just a satiny stripe?

I reckon they'd look good with a high neck hooded technical zip parka and hitop trainers (not sarcastic)

I think what we're getting here is it's too tough to call. I'd keep up the cop freeze.

[bels]

They... probably got them hemmed? They probably come unhemmed if they have a 36 inch inseam.

[pirxthepilot]

what he said. her models are bare tall tho. i once went to an afterparty for one of her shows and my neck got tired after talking to these lanky white ppl

[Francks]

You don't look short so they must be very lanky.

[Francks]

by the way tried the howell sweater, would need a medium. But I don't need all these things anyway

[CheerUpBrokeBoy]

where would i go in NYC if i want to replace missing buttons on clothes? somewhere in the garment district, i'm assuming

[can-]

any tailor has and can replace buttons but if you want to buy your own there are a million places in the garment district, mood fabrics is the most accessible but they might not let you buy like 2 buttons.

[alby]

bought a watch off of yjp but it doesn't come with a battery. is that something I can replace myself or should I just take it to a jeweler? watch man? where do you take watches

[bels]

If it was a baller watch take it to a jeweller I guess.

If nae DIY.

[dbcooper]

Is there a way to open a single post in a new tab rather than having the whole thread show up?

[sknss]

No

edit: yes

[germinal]

not quite want you want but this is probably the easiest solution

[Francks]

To choose:

Arc'teryx Veilance Mionn IS Vest or Jacket?

[ramseames]

Choose based on the insulation:

Vest is 40gsm coreloft all over

Jacket is 60/80

Aside from that + sleeves or lack thereof, they're the same product
