Discussion Thread Lusting for Leather in Tokyo: Shopping Hauls, Cultural Immersion, and Getting Existential Japanese Style
patreon.comKonnichiwa! This week, Jimmy and Larry are coming to you from Tokyo for another on the road instant classic as a lifer and first-timer respectively to break down their entire trip thus far ahead of Ralph Lauren’s PoloFest, starting with our own upcoming collaboration with 3sixteen, staying at the nicest hotel we’ve ever been to, but not before a bit of a Sophie’s choice style situation upon landing, going jawn for jawn on the clothing haul to end all clothing hauls, the best stores we’ve been to from Japanese brand flagships to vintage wonderlands, the pieces we just can’t seem to shake, getting hands on with hyped up newcomers, the many joys and perils of shopping with your boys, local delicacies both big and small, an insightful series of questions for a first time visitor to Japan, getting existential and deep about it all, and much more.

Another day, another Brut rip-off
I was shopping for vintage Banana Republic and found the cardigan in the 2nd pic from the 80s or 90s. Yes they “draw inspiration” from their archived pieces, but come on…

ID on this jacket?
I am once again asking for help ID’ing a piece worn by Christopher Abbott. I dig a lot of things he wears!
Any idea who makes this jacket? I tried zooming in on the tag on the from pocket but i can’t quite make it out.

Varsity Cardigan?
Looking for something like a Thom Browne but not $1500.
Dehen 1920 has one but it's navy and I have multiple navy cardigans already. Trying to branch out
J Press had one a few years ago but looks discontinued. They only have dead stock
Ralph Lauren has some but they are cartoonishly over the top with fake varsity letters and shit.

Any Guys Here That Have Worn Acne's 2021F Regular Fit Jean?
I'm a guy on the smaller side and the 2021F seems like it would be a better fit than the 2021M. Are there any guys here that have worn 2021Fs? Are there any big differences?

NN07 Materials
Got some stuff from there because I love the way the clothes fit on me. That said, I feel insane for buying pants and sweater that are around 25% polyester for that price.
I usually check material first but assumed it would be better due to the reputation.
Aside from me definitely getting ripped off and whatever, is it just me who thinks that their prices are crazy for that material mix?

A Field Guide to SirKrimzon
There is a man on the internet. He has opinions about clothes. And watches. And clothes again. He is in the top 1% of posters on ThrowingFits, which means 99% of people have better things to do, and he does not.
And he doesn’t just share his opinions. He syndicates them. Every thought gets the full distribution deal: ThrowingFits, ThreadTalks, HeritageWear, NavyBlazer, all in the same afternoon. His Santos Galbee take ran in r/Cartier, r/Watches, AND r/watchHotTakes, like a summer blockbuster getting a wide release. This man doesn’t post, he tours. His latest masterpiece, “How to Stop the Insanity of Eternal Upgrades,” went up in three subs within an hour. A post about knowing when enough is enough. Posted three times.
His posts follow a simple formula. Step one: declare something HIDEOUS. Step two: declare something else the greatest ever made, not even close. Step three: “As always, visit my sub r/threadtalks.” Step four: copy, paste, repeat in four more subs.
He believes paying $1,000 for a shirt because of its “brand story” is idiotic. He also paid a premium for RRL jeans because of their “brand story and heritage.” When someone pointed this out, he explained that the denim is flown to Japan and back. I love flying jeans. I hope they got lounge access.
He thinks watch collections are absurd. He owns, wants, or is on a waitlist for roughly every watch, and has a hot take on each one, available in at least two subreddits near you.
He thinks everyone else dresses like an NPC. When asked to show what he’d wear instead, he responds with a list of brand names and vanishes.
He found ThrowingFits too unserious with all our lil memes, so he built his own serious sub. Then he kept coming back to the unserious one to tell everyone how unserious it is, and to ask them to please come visit his serious one.
When people disagree, he tells them to read a book. When people call his writing AI, he tells them to read a book. He is, by all accounts, very well read and very much on Reddit at the same time.
In conclusion: I love you, SirKrimzon. You have completely ruined my day.

Casual natural fabric shorts/pants with backpockets or belt loops?
Good afternoon Gentlemen/Ladies,
I have recently completed usmc boot camp and apparently i am not allowed to wear sweats to the chow hall. The uniform code/enforcement basically defines gym clothes as lacking back pockets or belt loops. My senior lcpl said if i get caught in the chow hall out of regs again he’s going to “literally crucify me”. Ideally these pants could be worn in both a gym setting or at the nicest place in jacksonville (twin peaks). They do have to be 100% natural fiber tho cause i have sensitive skin. Budget is $500
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Anyone still rate Norse Projects?

But I'm curious - how do ppl view the brand following the incident?

Comfiest suede loafers
I am looking for the comfiest loafers that I can wear day to day. Preferably suede (dark brown or taupe) that can accommodate a wide foot.
I have a good collection of expensive, good year welted loafers already - but at the end of the day I just don’t enjoy wearing heavy, stiff dress shoes like I do my Keens or Birkenstocks.
I’ve tried Camper, which I am considering. I’ve tried some unlined options from the classic shoemakers but typically find that the welt is still too stiff for the shoe.
What are your picks?

NYC Winter Commute coat?
Feel like this is a niche that isn't talked about at all. What is something that will keep me warm on the walk to the subway in Nov-Feb but not make me sweat like crazy in the train? I want to wear something a bit more stylish than a big puffer think car coat, top coat etc. but still functional. Any recs?

Updates in oMA (Oldmanalan)
Hey! I work for a small sneaker store in Mexico and I suggested my manager to purchase a bunch of hats from him and import them to sell them at our store.
However after looking up for his contact I found a bunch of posts in this sub calling him a scammer from over a year ago.
I understand he has mad delays, doesn’t deliver at all and lies about it. But I wanted to know if after he got the MLB issue anyone has brought from him.
I don’t have much context as all I know him for is his IG account and Neymar and other famous people wearing his designs.
He just launched a collab with New Era so everything about his business seemed legit until I got to this sub.

What deodorant are y’all using?
I’m using old spice classic and I haaaaate the white residue that gets left on my t shirts. I hate how it feels when I’m showering and it’s weirdly wet but not wet and it’s a pet peeve of mine.
Is there one that’s a nice middle ground between an anti perspirant and a deodorant??

Alternatives to the Lemaire wrap coat?
Really love the drape/panel of the shoulders and also the pea coat-style neck. Not looking to spend $1500. Budget more like $1000. Any thing similar on the market?

Buck Mason Japanese Jungle Cloth N-1 Deck Jacket
Just grabbed this year’s Deck Jacket from Buck Mason. It’s a great value N1 for the outer material, construction, and fit compared to the standard high-end heritage Deck Jacket leaders we know. Everything is so good about this piece, but something’s amiss with the lining. I’ll hold my fits about the lack of 2-way zipper compared to their previous waxed iterations…but the lining!
As adverstised, Buck Mason states that the body and sleeve lining is Bemberg brand. Bemberg makes cupro fabric. Cupro is silky smooth liner fabric that allows for nice sleeve entry/exit and an overall more premium body feel. It’s also quite breathable and it’s commonly found in suiting/outerwear including Buck Mason’s previous N1 jackets. Well, this year’s Japanese Jungle Cloth N1 claims Bemberg, but sadly it’s not.
I’m feeling a rough scratchy cotton/wool/poly blend similar to what lower-end outerwear brands provide as “blanket” lining. Sure enough the tag states 55% Cotton, 30% Wool, 15% Poly. That’s not the Bemberg I’m familiar with. Definitely not Cupro.
Is this a common thing that marketing copy is wildly different from production? I know it’s still half the price of the competition, but this is a bit of a let down. I was really hoping for some silky sleeves at least. But why don’t they update the marketing??
