Yes ma, the fit is FARM TO TABLE
Veg-dyed gems + the case AGAINST no-show socks + delicious natty wines + more “unbeatable recon"
Today’s sletter is an exclusive for Cla$$ified-Recon SpyFriends — our embedded email-vibe-scanner has biometrically confirmed that yr credentials are elite. Welcome to the Spyplane Inner $anctum…
So the other day, SpyFriend Mia Morikawa of New Delhi / NYC brand 11.11 hit us up with some very dope advance intel: They were preparing a new capsule collection of highly limited-edition unisex SUMMER JAWNS, themed around NYC parks and green spaces…
We f**k with parks AND we f**k w/ 11.11 — who have cooked up collabs with SpyFriends like Mr. Porter and Stòffa — so we asked Mia for an encrypted dossier of further documentation.
It turns out that not only are the jawns in question beautiful, but they align with several ongoing Spyplane interests, among them MONOCHROME MATCHING SETS, ROOMY SILHOUETTES, and O baby — NATURAL-DYED HUES!!

The capsule’s called City Lungs, and it’s made up of 14 pieces. Among them are:
🌞 Some fantastic organic-cotton shirt-pant combos — dyed mustard yellow with pomegranate skins, or dyed dusty pink with sappan wood, ferrous and tamarind seed. These are available as a set or as loosies, and you can take them out on the STREETS and/ or take it to “pajama mode” and ROCK ‘EM IN THE SHEETS.
I’m wearing the dusty pink joints all the way up top. They are crazy soft and extremely nice, with 2 patch pockets and irregular-cut shell buttons on the shirt. We just wrote about how to transition from quarantine fits back toward more “put-together” looks while retaining flowy laidback energies, and (besides flowy laidback suits) monochrome sets like this were exactly what we had in mind!!
🌞 Some very sick organic-cotton tees that were “knitted on a hand flat-bed machine w/ hand-spun heirloom yarn” and dyed using “indigenous ingredients from the Indian landscape, including sappan wood, myrobalan flower, ferrous and tamarind seed.”
🌞 AND some more ROOMY trousers, ROOMY jeans, ROOMY shirts, ROOMY shorts and hand-quilted bandanas…
11.11 says most of “the ingredients involved in these pieces are safe enough to eat”?? Please trust & believe the jawns are not merely PLANT-BASED but FARM-TO-TABLE QUALITY, lovers !!

The sourcing and the fabrication at 11.11 involve various blessed practices as relates not only to natural dyes but also to organic cottons that grow using very little water; hand-made yarns; and contracts with cotton farmers who “allow fields to lie fallow with cover crops to allow for soil remediation, respecting the need for the land to regenerate” and who “have owned and worked their land for many generations”…
HERE’S THE THING — 11.11 only has enough fabric yardage to make a small number of each design (like, 7 pieces, in some cases)…
AND GET THIS — we set it up so that YOU, our Cla$$ified-Tier subscribers, are the ONLY people on earth who can cop the City Lungs collection between now and this Sunday night. That’s right, it’s a Private Spyplane ‘Xclusie for our “beautiful & blessed” readers here behind the paywall!
These garments are unisex and truly special. To access the SpyPresale, caress this button & use the password “unbeatablelungs21” — (no quotation marks):
Mia says “everything will deliver in 7 days (aside from the miniature tie-dye shirt...that takes 25 days.)”
This Spyplane presale ends on Sunday night, so don’t sleep !! (And yes, these get a C.I.R.L.O.C. exemption because they are highly dope & highly Spyplaney & while you can make an appointment with Mia to shop 11.11 I.R.L. in Soho there’s no store you can just waltz into & cop these at 😉)

MEANWHILE: More reader questions from our recent open call on IG —
What’s the Spyplane position on no-show socks?? — @jerkovici
We try to practice radical jawn-acceptance, ‘cause this is NOT a doctrinaire sletter, BUT personally we are anti-… I once saw a tweet or something calling no-shows “dishonest,” which struck me as both funny & true…
When you wear “no-show” socks you’re trying to look like you’re chill & casual, but you’re lying!! It’s roughly akin to a dude doing a comb-over or rocking a toupé vs. just embracing his baldness, not just on some honest s**t but on some confident s**t … i.e. no-shows are a physical manifestation not of vanity, exactly (as in the combover metaphor) but of a prophylactic preciousness that’s the opposite of swaggy — if you’re gonna wear socks, commit to actual socks; if you’re gonna let the dogs breathe, just let the dogs breathe, mamma mia!!
I guess if the socks are truly no-show, meaning there isn’t the faintest micron of fabric peeking up out of yr shoe, then fine, it’s your secret / private shame, no one’s the wiser, lie to the world if you feel you need to.
But the moment I spy a wisp of sock? The merest GLIMMER? It’s like you tried to do a magic trick but you’re BAD at magic and everyone in the crowd can see through the illusion. So I’m deducting points from the whole fit, to the punitive degree that U might find yourself in the red !!
