I just bought this set from Wunderwelt and it might be my greatest J-fashion pull yet.
I was mainly trying to hunt down a proper vest so I could make better ouji coordinates, when I saw the vest listing.
It was sooo cute, so I opened up the page in a different tab and keep scrolling. That's when I saw the shorts meant to go with it, and I realized I could get a matching set!
Both the pants and vest were each listed for about $45 USD (Wunderwelt calculates usd prices from the yen price listed.) and the original yen prices for the vest and pants upon release in 2013 were: ¥15,540.00 and ¥14,490.00 respectively. $174 and $162 USD according to a 2014 blog post by BtSSB San Francisco.
I caught a MASSIVE deal!
Praise the ouji gods!
The A/P Check set comes in brown and gray colorways according to lolibrary ♕ ♛ and the Wunderwelt listing said they had the grey one, but the pictures looked a bit more like the brown colorway. So I'll just have to see when it arrives in the mail!
Either way, I can't wait to coordinate this set!
The material doesn't look thin, so it should be easy wear and stay warm this coming winter. Although I won't have to worry about it getting too cold in my area because of climate change. πππ
