Great looking jacket.  Is there a link to it or is it only in stores?

Thanks everyone. We definitely had a great time. Can't wait til we are rolling 20 deep when that DBNT summit happens

And August, I tried finding online but to no avail. I know I saw this jacket in stores around winter time so maybe just the store by me is burning off the rest of the stock. What size are you looking for?

I'm 5'10 with a 40" chest.  What do you think would be a good size? Medium?

Btw, what is the material of the collar? Is it cord or leather?

Thanks man.  Appreciate the help.

I'm 5' 10" 38" chest. Medium fits be fine but I also tried on the small and that worked too so medium prob would be fine. PM man. I might head back to the mall tomorrow. Maybe we can work something out. (I'd just need shipping covered). Collar is corduroy btw.

I have tailor he does good work but he trips on certain alterations (ie slimming shirts and legs of pants).

One could assume he cant do it and dont want to botch my clothes or that its too little money for the work. I would assume the latter.

Only because he has slimmed one of my shirts and it came out great and that he has made pants for my father. He also has fabric to make shirts from scratch. So I figure he can do the job.

I tried to get him to slim the legs on my Express suit and he got to trippin. He was fine with taking in the sides of my jacket and and taking in the waist.

I like my pants slim fitting. Everytime I take in slim pants to get altered, he gets on about how peps wear boots (Texas) with the type of pants I like. I'm like damn!!! Shut about them damn boots!!!!

Sorry it had nothing to do with anything currently being discussed, but I had to vent.

Anybody familiar with Stance Socks? Seen D. Wade post some pictures of them on IG but I can't tell if they're supposed to be dress socks or athletic...

I think I might be a 39 chest like your friend also.  I never found a 39 chest jacket to confirm, but a 38 is snug and a 40 is a tad loose.  You mind telling me what MTM stands for for future reference?

They're a skate company but have a lot of designs that can be worn dressed up.

Yo wanna shout out Pinoy for pointing me in the direction of some JCP oxfords the other week...

Wore them today and they were pretty comfy Sorry dont have pics of the outfit( hate taking pics right now).

But back to the shoes, they are really comfy and well worth 50 I paid ( got $10 off when I copped)...
My brother has a pair of cole Haan dress shoes with the "air" tech and says that these JCP "stafford" are almost as comfy. ( Idk about his opinion since I don't own cole those cole haans,
Anyways, good buy for someone who needs, inexpensive shoes fast... Way better than an "Aldo shoe"...
Don't know how long they'll last but I'm satisfied I guess with the one wear and I probably will only wear them two other times this year so it's whatever
Here's the shoe and link ( they have it in black too)

^^^the roshe wasn't designed with running in mind, it's a lifestyle shoe. Super comfortable though, I hear more than the soft moccasins.

Is that why it's called the Rosherun?

Sorry D, all the smalls were gone when I went back for it. That's why I scooped the medium (also knew I could layer better with the med, so I guess it worked out).

I think Nike is really onto something here. I see some of their new lifestyle gear, and some of that stuff looks alright. No obnoxious sayings like "I'm That Dude" or anything.

But man, kids used to be fiending for those And1 VHS tapes FootAction gave out. I remember at lunch we would be doing all of those moves, and the final score would be like 10-14 90% of the time was spent perfecting the moves, didn't even matter if the ball went in.

You will surely be able to get one with that price range. I'll keep an eye out for you as time goes by. I saw a very nice one at Bloomy's a couple of months ago, but it was a zip up. It was navy mohair so it's hairy with distinct gold zipper. Your best bet is to try to pull the trigger now since it's somewhat still off season and you can get a deep discount.

Try checking out Yoox to see if there's anything you like.

I have too many zip ups that i never wear and dont have any pullovers so i want just one.

I was looking at this one: http://blueingreensoho.com/site/ind...facturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=62

But length looks too short for my liking. 

This is also a consideration but I feel like shoulders are too wide for their corresponding sizes: http://blueingreensoho.com/site/ind...facturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=62

Here's some of the pics of the Nike lifestyle stuff I was talking about: http://www.styleforum.net/t/311835/nike-thread/2040#post_6264259


I really like how JCP is revamping its image...down to the simple name of "JCP". It's clearly coming at brands like H&M, and Zara and acknowledge that menswear is becoming popular among the younger crowd.

I saw those pictures on Hypebeast the other day and thought to myself, I should start wearing my neon AM95s again

How many times were those released? 4 or 5 now?

I searched for some hoodies for Frank and I like these. With the exception of the KVA one which is a little above the $250 mark, they fit the bill. All of the hoodies are 100% cotton so I'm not sure how warm they will be though.
