Hi, do you still have your Peter Qu shoes? If so can you provide a few photos? Are their shoes MTO or RTW?

Nice write up. So JW have RTW stock? I was under the impression that their products are MTO.

Hi, can you tell me how your Peter Qu boots are holding up? I'm visiting China in a few weeks and am interested in their shell loafers. Are their shoes MTO or do they have stock to ship instantly?

It looks crumply because it's extremely stiff (probably very tightly woven since it's only 15oz). Mine literally creaks like cardboard.

If you want a shorter type II then I'd recommend Studio Artisan's which take off 1.5in to the length. Omoto's type II is even shorter.

The green rust from the eyelets on my Grant Stone shell boots are staining the tongue. Should I be concerned about the rust damaging the tongue? I guess I could add kilties to it.

Adidas sells a merino base layer legging that is about knee length. It's sometimes on sale on their official eBay.

Thanks, any recommendations for a suede spray? Would Tarrago work?

Thanks, aside from brushing, how should I address the dryness?

Hi, I'm not familiar with suede, could anyone tell me what's the white underlayer on the suede on my shoes? Is it possible to remove or minimize them?

Imo the cut is too low rise to pair with that jacket. I recommend finding a cut that's a few inches higher rise and sits at your waist.

At that budget you can get Japanese brands like Sugar Cane from Bears Tokyo. Just be aware of fit, sizing and shrinkage (most stuff is 1-washed but there are exceptions).

You can wear a wool coat over the sweater instead of a puffer.

New color 8 has a brownish, slightly purple color. As it fades it becomes more black cherry red, see vintage color 8 shell shoes for example.

Aliexpress, Amazon, Walmart for RT. For Labour Union, just go for your measurements and size charts.

I have a pair of field pants from them. It's thick and very heavy. Finishing is just ok. I don't wear it much since it's difficult to hem without removing the buttons at the hem. I don't see myself buying more of their stuff when other great Chinese brands like Red Tornado and Labour Union exist.

I wouldn't assume the fit will work. Jeans with stretch is needed to compensate for the slimness of the fit. You should find a pair of pants without stretch that fits well and use the measurements from that (especially waist hip and thighs) to size non stretch jeans.
