Someday.

Here is a very crappy cropped mirror pick of the gunclub jacket.



My only complaint is that the arms could be tapered more to a smaller wrist opening. Otherwise, I love it so far.

Is it just me or is that a really high button stance?

The suits look great, i cant wait to see them live. Just curious what the difference between this solid grey suit and the one that you had for spring/summer? Also you wrote this is a preview of the Italian suits are there going to any other suits made in china/usa?

when will the wool sweaters be up for fall?

It buttons 2" above my belly button.

I just noticed these:

Will there be any other coats, or just those two?

Weight, primarily. This is more of a year-round fabric, albeit a bit heavier for summer.

And yes, this is just a portion of our tailored goods for fall--about half. The rest is made in China and will be arriving in the US before the end of the month.

They're on the way. So, 3rd week of September, roughly

Yes, there will be three other styles. By the end of the month.

Any chance we will get a preview of the rest of the tailored goods before we make the jump on the ones we have seen so far? I would prefer to know all the options before i spend my whole budget in one shot

Sure. The rest of the tailored items are going to be

Suits
Navy wool (VBC 120)
Light gray flannel (Guabello)
Mid gray flannel double breasted (Guabello)

Jackets
Brown plaid cashmere (Cerruti)
Navy plaid wool (Barbera)
Blackwatch plaid wool (Botto Giuseppe)

Overcoats
Gray wool and cashmere single breasted with ticket pocket
Camel double breasted short polo
Navy whipcord wool double breasted (like a short ulster style coat)

SWEET.

Are these all going to be China made?

Will they hit the website at the same time as the rest of the Italian made stuff, or will we at least see them on a preview basis before the Italian stuff comes up for sale? What with the limited quantities and all I don't want to to sit on my hands waiting for the chinese stuff to arrive unless I know it's what I want.. otherwise I wait and stuff is sold out.

Yes, the above are made in China, full canvas.

They will follow behind the Italian stuff, which I have in New York already. The Chinese stuff is still enroute, with all of it due to be delivered by the end of September. But, until I have it.....

When will the next round of Italian wool/flannel pants be available? I am still kicking myself for missing the last round of light grey flannel...

Thanks

Nice, wish we could at least get fabric swatches or something to judge between what we've seen of the Italian stuff and the Chinese stuff to come. In particular I'm trying to decide between the navy plaid here and the blue windowpane in the Italian run. Although they're totally different, will also probably have to decide between the green tweed and the grey flannel suits. Will sizing be the same as the summer jackets between the Italian/Chinese stuff?

With regards to the overcoats.. dibs on the 38 for the navy ulster type coat. Will these be sized to accommodate a suit underneath or will we need to size up if that is our intention?
