Description
Jägerloden (Austria) Vintage, 1970s, High GSM. I currently have over 100,000 pieces sitting in a warehouse, because moderation has never been my strong suit. What began as compulsion is now a side project. Scaling, of course, requires capital. I'm well aware that most of you don't have any, but statistically speaking, out of the millions who drift through here, it is statistically probable that one of you possesses both interest & solvency. After a half-decade sabbatical from fashion, I felt it was time to reconnect. I moved to Europe a few years ago & began collecting vintage with the field discipline of an anthropologist & the denial of a high-functioning hoarder. I currently have over 100,000 pieces sitting in a warehouse, because moderation has never been my strong suit. What began as compulsion is now a side project. I'm firmly in the pre-revenue chapter of the memoir-800 sales, & high morale. The broader archive skews larger, stranger, & more historically pointed-East & West German rarities, bureaucratic glamour, Soviet institutional wear, industrial archaeology-rich in Trevira, Diolen, Terylene & mid-century state textile programs, & an elegy in garments from the DACH region & beyond. The collection is mostly a Cold War capsule wardrobe, institutional tailoring, state-issued, regional cooperatives & rural ateliers, white labels from the department store era, exceptional knitwear, socialist leathers, the zenith of Parisian fur craft, selectively preserved tweed skirts, rare 1960s mod, exaggerated '70s collars, essentially the entirety of the 1970s, when even institutional garments had the decency to be well made. Eventually, this evolves into a full-scale operation-complete with the token NYC storefront for aesthetic credibility. Given that about 70% of you are ordering from New York, it seems reasonable to ship our 50 pallets there & open a labyrinth of "true vintage" to get lost in. Scaling, of course, requires capital. I'm well aware that most of you don't have any, but statistically speaking, out of the millions who drift through here, it is statistically probable that one of you possesses both interest & solvency. Type us into Google. Everything is there, including a contact form. What's on offer now- early equity at a materially discounted valuation-is both sincere and short-lived. We are currently operating in a pre-scaling phase, during which the scope of our vintage archive has expanded beyond what can be listed at human speed. For context, our archive exceeds 100,000 pieces. Only a tiny fraction of the inventory is visible online, not for lack of supply, but because an inconvenient commitment to perfectionism. Feel free to request access to our Google Drive. New drops are added daily. There is, incidentally, an upside to this arrangement: direct access, special attention, preferred pricing, and quantity-based concessions. For access to the Drive folder, pricing inquiries, or any other particulars, my assistant is your point of contact. From there, we provide an elevated level of service. Buy 3 pieces or more and the pricing conveniently sheds 20%-70%. SUNDAZED & OUTSIDE SOCIETY ... c. 1970s Size Conversion (approximate): US Women’s Size: M–L EU Women’s Size: 38–40 SKU: 900290 One minor clarification seems necessary: on eBay, "Vintage" tends to imply garments that have endured a meaningful span of wear and tear. To eliminate any potential ambiguity, I'm adding an explicit disclaimer that the majority of these items are, in fact, new, unworn deadstock. This contextual cue should help orient users who are accustomed to encountering authentically fatigued clothes. To answer the recurring question about U.S. import: we've already covered the fees through our postal carrier. Your parcel arrives fully cleared; any bureaucratic bloodletting has already been performed on our side . Currently, the archive sits in a warehouse. At some indeterminate point in the future, contingent entirely upon capital, it will relocate to a labyrinth, somewhere in NYC, with hundreds of racks of "true vintage." You may reach us via the QR codes below. When the relocation is complete, the announcement will appear there. Let's be in touch
