How would you compare this to>> Baltogs or MStevens garments?>The seams on the legs are like Bal-togs seams: along the bottom of>the foot and back of heel, gradually going to between the legs at>the top. No actual elastic bands; they rely on the stretchiness>of the fabric. And the fibre content is just as you guessed: 80%>nylon, 20% spandex. It's a little sleeker and a lot sexier than>M.Stevens unitards, but more trouble since there is that zipper in>the back. Not as shiny.>> Where did you hear of them having a warehouse in NJ?

Repetto only makes shoes now. No clothes. And they're in France. I haven't been able to find any US offices. So Terry Gal, looks like you've got yourself a collector's item! :-) ~Seamless~ Answers to this message: |
