Would any one be able to tell me what the Y-3 jacket is made out of (inside and out)? I can't find one that fits me well (I'm between a medium and a small) so I've decided to just make my own replica myself. The design is pretty simple and I have my own small sewing studio. Any info would be appreciated, thank you all!
Mantis...thank you for the article. Well researched and quality stuff. If I were out there to get all this stuff I would certainly refer to your article.
There was this one jacket I saw at a Farmers store here in New Zealand that was a dead ringer for the Y-3 jacket. I almost bought it, but decided to get a sweater instead. I thought it would be available later on but when I went back it was no longer there. I think it was done by the company Chisel though. Interesting...
I received the Topman Navy Smart Polo in the mail today and it's very nice. The fit is great and it looks nice with my cream Levis. For $24 I don't think I could have found a better alternative to the Sunspel.
The above linked jacket doesn't look to close to the flm one in my opinion, the collar isn't right and it looks like a fleece thick kind of jacket, keep the suggestions coming though.
RogueBond, good choice on the polo I forgot Topman operates in the US too now!
I still havent had a question answered people! are the sta prest pants with the polo the same ones (or a different colour) to the ones worn in italy at mathis' villa?

Which size did you order? They've run out of size S!!! And I'm reluctant to order a M because I think it won't fit as snug as a S.

The Y-3 jacket's shell is 96% Cotton and 4% Elastane. The lining is 100% Acetate.

I believe the patch can be easily removed. It has the correct buttons on the side and the sleeves.
