    ***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    Shanks in my Aldens and Vibergs always set off the metal detectors in the airport (I'm also TSA Pre) so I stopped wearing them through. Last time it happened to me there was a dude right behind me who was dressed very nice, and wearing very nice shoes who also had to remove his. We had a...

    Engineered Garments FW 15

     Yeah a bit too baggy, a bit longer, and a bit larger in the shoulders. I think it'll be fine... The fabric should stretch some anyway. In other news, tried on one of the Bedfords in the Block Color Herringbone. They definitely run large. Going to need to find an XS in that one if I end up...

     It's probably about 1/4 inch higher that my wrist with my arm by my side.

    Engineered Garments FW 15

    What do you guys think, are these sleeves too short? Still debating my decision to get the Knit Leisure Jacket in XS instead of S. The sleeves on the S felt too long but I'm afraid these are now a bit too short...

    Engineered Garments FW 15

    What do you guys think of the multi-colored block herringbone jacket in terms of versatility? At first I thought it might be a bit of a one-trick pony, but the more I look at it the more I dig the uniqueness and the colors. I don't think any 2 of them are identical either in how the colors are...

    How tall are you? If you don't mind me asking... I'm 5'4". I tried on the Leisure Jacket in S first today and it pretty much fit, with a bit of pucker in the shoulders. The sleeves were a bit long. I also tried on the XS and ended up getting that. The shoulders seemed to fit better, the length...

    Pretty sure NNY has it. Email them and ask?

    Engineered Garments FW 15

    Kopped the Leisure Jacket from NNY in an XS. ******* psyched about this thing. I really wanted to get something in Cable Knit from this season and this is perfect. They also fixed the seam on my Navy Moleskin Bedford. Took it right up to the factory and it was done in less than 30 mins. NNY rocks.

    Yeah I keep bugging NNY to see if they have it but so far not yet. Going to drop by there today and check in.

    In the lookbook this jacket is listed as Knit Leisure Jacket but is it actually just a Bedford in Dk. Gray Cable Knit?

    Engineered Garments FW 15

    I bought a Bedford in Navy Moleskin about a month ago and first wearing it today. While giving it a quick steam this morning I noticed that one of the seams on the back is a bit fucked up. Looks like the fabric is curling out from under the seam there and the edge is fraying. Is there a way to...

    Engineered Garments FW 15

    What do you think of the shape of the B1Ps? I stopped by Nepenthes NY a couple days ago and I love the fabric, but they were sold out of all but 36 (I wear a 30). I bought the Fatigue Pants in 8W Cord instead and they're also really nice. I'd like a pair with the 6W fabric but I'm worried that...

    I got a navy one. Super psyched for it to get cool enough out to wear it.

    Aw CRAP! I was just in Minneapolis the past couple days and wanted to check somewhere out, but I didn't think anywhere in the Twin Cities stocked EG.

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

    It was Mildblend on Milwaukee in Wicker Park. Mine is actually the 257 (Computer briefcase) which online sells for $345 but I think I paid $300 in the store. Seems like that's the deal with most Filson bags, though.

    I bought mine at a store in Chicago and it was significantly cheaper there than online. That's the best deal afaik.

    That's really interesting. Maybe its a 2045 problem? I have 2 pairs on the 2045 and while I love the look and shape, neither of them are particularly comfortable. I thought for a while that they may just be a half-size too big, or just not the right last for my foot, but what you describe (the...
