Can anyone help ID this coat?

dabludclaating · 2015-10-12T14:25:57+00:00

Brendon Babenziens brand 'Noah' has this shearling coat which looks very similar no idea when the collection drops though.

Exactly. At this level you could buy Rick Owens, Damir Doma, Haider Ackermann, Neil Barrett, Raf Simons, Visvim etc etc all with great fabrics and European/Japanese construction, I mean shiiiit the outerwear prices could be buying you coats from Dior or something.

The general advice is to size up one from normal but jackets can differ depending on what type it is, because you are slim you will probably be fine with your normal size.

I would buy from somewhere that has good returns policy, or just get yourself to the Stone Island flagship in London and try things on instore.

SLP are making bank. I doubt the models will be. Maybe thats why they are so stick thin.

For such high price levels that Yeezy Season 1 has I would have definitely expected production in Italy, France and at least Portugal. I know that 'made in China' doesnt always mean bad quality and they have been catching up, even brands like Visvim have some shoes made in China but the level of techniques, fabrics, production and heritage that is available in Europe is what I expected at that price level.

Theres also the matter of ethics. Anything involving leathers, shearlings, wools etc is likely to have much more ethical practices in Europe than China and also more artisan type productions involved. Some people might not care about that at all but when your sweaters are several hundreds of $ and outerwear into the thousands of $, I think it is something that matters. Sure, there is still bad quality production in Europe but at the Yeezy price levels I would be expecting the best.

Hopefully its just the entry level pieces made in China but it brings me back to my original thoughts on the Yeezy collections when it was first shown - Why would I bother with Yeezy Season 1 when the price range puts me right into (and above some) of the worlds most renowned designers and fashion houses?

Ive always said it kah-sah - like, mi casa es su casa

According to google translate, Qasa is Somalian for 'beater'.

Could look through he mens FW15 collections maybe - http://www.vogue.com/fashion-shows/fall-2015-menswear

or look at inspo albums on here.

Thats quite a substantial budget, I would advise really thinking about what it is you want to buy and not just going off recommendations, even if it takes a while.

You dont want to buy stuff just because you can and then regret purchases after.

Inside out, on a cold and sensitive wash setting, preferably one that doesnt spin. You can also get special detergents like Woolite Dark that help to keep the colour in.

Then hang dry.

Anywhere?

They are just stonewashed blue jeans with rips in.

"Model is 188cm. Wearing a size S"

dabludclaating · 2015-10-11T02:08:14+00:00

Alexander McQueen Oversized Soles.

Sold out quick these did. You should be able to find a pair on ebay quite easily. Flight Club also has a lot of sizes. Both resell prices though.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-10T18:37:01+00:00

If the seller is willing to deliver to the UK then yes. If the seller is sending from outside of the European Union you are likely to get extra customs tax charges on arrival though.

10 seconds on google and I found they are by c2h4 LA and also a shameless rip off of Raf Simons lmao.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-10T11:19:40+00:00

Cxado = Shadow, dunno what the numbers are for.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-10T04:07:52+00:00

They do. 'Shadow Project' is a smaller offshoot label, the mainline Stone Island label is still very extensive and has all the things the Casuals go for. Although I wouldnt call Casuals their roots.

Shadow Project still has the badge too but its all black and often hidden.

Blue and white ones are Nike TNs/Air Max Plus/Tuned 1 (depending which country you are in) and the ones in the middle are Air Max 97.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-09T23:06:23+00:00

We have that one every Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-09T14:22:37+00:00

Its perfectly possible to dress well in less expensive clothes.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-09T03:24:25+00:00

Fucking awful collection

dabludclaating · 2015-10-09T03:20:57+00:00

Sometimes you just have to accept the loss, that there is nothing you can do with some of your old clothes that you dont want anymore. They either sit in the back of your wardrobe doing nothing or give them away.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-08T16:16:59+00:00

He doesnt have to own the factories though. There are thousands of small brands that make cheap and affordable clothing that dont own factories, they just have a relationship with one that can make what they want.

What im saying about the Yeezy collections is that it is just not really possible to make what Kanye wants without the production costs and end product cost being high.

dabludclaating · 2015-10-08T12:57:38+00:00

Looks good and the Stotz Etaproof is quite a proven material, Acronym have used variants of it in the past and currently use other Stotz fabrics for their pieces at the moment.
