Nine Lives

[Akuma no uta]

In January I was fortunate enough to attend the MAN/WOMAN trade show in NYC where Nine Lives was showing the FW collection. Needless to say there's still quite a few pieces yet to be unveiled that will blow you away. These guys are something else when it comes to creative tailoring and insane fabrics.

I'd like the same shirt in emerald green. Maybe next year…

now that's an idea!

@BloodnThunder:

Have the red.  So tempted to get the blue too.  I can attest, the fabric in person is unreal.

How does the Fabric feel, on Pictures it always looks a bit stiff and smooth ?

[Niro]

The fabric is definitely not smooth, it is highly textured due to the weaving. It has a feel to match the 3D look.

Neither is it stiff.

^This.  The fabric has a jacquard/slubby hand to it.  The fabric itself is has some heft to it but is not stiff at all.

Do the jacquard shirts shrink in the wash? Wearing mine for the first time and it could do with a small shrinkage…

[Giles]

Wash at 30C
Not enough shrinkage?
Add 10C and repeat
Repeat until you have got the shrinkage you need

[JDelage]

Will do.

Got some shrink out of the DMT with a WARM gental wash and a MEDIUM machine dry.  Really happy with the resulting fit.

When I first saw this thread I thought it was for cat people.

Disclaimer: I am not one of those people. They bury their  shit in a box In your closet and then proceed to walk on your kitchen counters and table and everywhere else you eat. Your pillows.. I’m gagging now. Thanks for nothing cats.

Loving how the raglan sleeves with the darted shoulders fit, look, and move.
Just a cool innovative design that no one outside the user would even notice…

Cause they're too busy, tripping on that weave! Lol

The NL Yak Leather jackets are something to behold. They are jaw-droppingly good.

They seem to live by mantra of all or nothing in terms of quality

Thank you! We try—

The two things in life that one should aspire to are good manners and good taste—and not necessarily in that order.
