Surfer Cool - Splurge vs. Steal (Proenza Schouler or Mexican Threads)

Proenza Schouler's capsule collection for Net-a-porter is full of their hits in relaxed understated sporty styles, I want them all. Yet, my humble budget allows me to windowshop only. Yet, we immortals can attain a similar look by looking for the originals. The baja hoodies by Mexican Threads promises a soft touch and once you DIY a little leather trimming on them, voila, you almost got yourself the Proenza Schouler surfer coolitude. (Is that even a word?)
