The Weller came. God, guys, how did you make it fit even better than I remember it fitting in the store?

You crazy, crazy bastards.

Now I just gotta let the shipping wrinkles, courtesy of United Parcel Squishers, ease out.

I have sent an email, but no reply.


Hey, really sorry about that. Your email came through yesterday at 8PM, and we just responded. You don't have to do the repair yourself - we'll get you sorted ASAP out with a repair or replacement.

Thank you sir!

And if that head kick didn't hit hard enough, I'd say that guy is pretty close to getting punched in his checkerboard-covered nuts.

Out of curiosity, do you know when the new chinos/cargo pants will be arriving? I'm in NY for a few days and was hoping to pick some up in person.

Thanks!

Decided to heed Mike's warning. Picked up one of the last two florals in a medium. First Epaulet purchase in almost a year. Yikes.

The truest color is in the third pic, even though it's a little over-saturated. Note that these are not my contest submission shots"”they're here only to show the cut.

Looking good Keith and thanks for the pics. I'm picking my gray SC up tomorrow after having the sleeves shortened a bit. May end up getting the jacket shortened by about 3/4" of an inch after a while though. Funny, when I tried on the jacket, I thought that the length was pretty much where it is supposed to be but I prefer a bit shorter than the accepted norm.
On two separate notes, had to jump on the purple gingham shirt. Also, if anyone is looking for a great lightweight shirt the two solid Gant Madras shirts are great (although I only have blue one). A great summer shirt.

is getting a sportcoat shortened an advisable move? I've heard a lot of tailors won't do a good job on this. just wondering; mine could take an inch off (but it's not egregious, i might leave it.)

Hmm...unless you are asking him/her to alter a jacket with working buttonholes, it's a relatively simple task. With sewn on buttons it should be a piece of cake for any competent tailor. I've had every jacket I own altered with respect to sleeve length, most shortened but a couple lengthened. Depending on how much I like the jacket, I may opt for working buttonholes but I've paid $20 per buttonhole for this.

Hey,

Just wanted to thank Mike (well in this case it would be Adele) for the great service! I went to NY for 4 days and passed by the Orchard St. store and bought the silver zig-zag melissa ballet flats for my girlfriend and she loves them!! The quality is really amazing compared to the crappy 20-30$ flats she usually buys and even she was really impressed with it. I am starting to get my girl into higher end clothing (well higher end then let's say forever 21) and these ballet flats are the right way to go!

Really amazing, thanks!
