Sounds about right. Should work out.

 

Man, if only the mill that made that wasn't out of business. The Corduroy Tweed saga continues.

 

Thank you! You'll absolutely love it.

 

 

The flannel is thicker/warmer. The Cozy Tartan is an incredible fabric, but closer to the hand of Oxford cloth than flannel.

 

 

Looking tough as nails! I'm honestly a little jealous of that vest...

 

 

This is what came to my mind immediately after your fit...

 

 

 

 

We have a few more things up our sleeve, but not all that much! Keep your eyes peeled.

 

 

Ah sorry to hear they didn't work out. It's so tough coming up with a size conversion that will work for everybody, but we always try! You shouldn't have a problem unloading them.

 

 

HOLY SHIT. Those pants look like a Mod's wet dream.

 

 

Ha! Thanks for the plug 

 

 

 

Enjoy them! Your dad is going to be one stylish looking dude.

Please tell me the Eisenhower in Navy Melton Wool shall be restocked. I was waiting for Xmas money to snag a large, and now feel like an idiot. Such my style.

Crappy pictures today, the sun was too much in effect. The awning Walts:

Great - many thanks for the information.

 

In that case I am going to order the factory-finds fire-red corduroy in a Rudy fit (so enough room for a flannel lining) with 38" length (to get them cuffed at 2"), and then I can walk around like boss giving a big-2-fingers to the gray winter weather here!

Re: the Hardie gray cardigan

What size is the model wearing and what are his measurements? I'm 6' 172 lb, 42 jacket/34 jeans/35 or 36 dress pants and not sure if the 40 or 42 will work best for me in the Hardie

Are the carminas still supposed to go up this week? I am about 95% sure that I am finished buying boots/shoes for the winter and I am going to jump on the grey cardigan and a pair of Oxford grey flannels... But I just need to make sure that there does not end up being a pair that I just have to have.

Hmmm... I'm about your size and would likely order a 40 in this for myself. But then I also order 40 in Epaulet sport jackets as opposed to your 42. Going to guess that 40 in this is going to be pretty fitted, whereas 42 will be a little roomier. Epaulet's cut is definitely on the trimmer side across the board.

One solution if you can swing the temporary charge is to order both and return one. Epaulet is very good about this for SF members, and it's a real service so that you can get a feel for your sizing if you don't know it already. All it will cost you is return postage. And of course, probably many many more purchases from Epaulet once you see the stuff in person.

Edit: Also just noted this from the description "Overall, the piece this piece has a slim fit, but most customers will want to size down one. If you typically take a 38, we'd recommend trying the sweater in size 36. In terms of Epaulet shirting, we would recommend a size 36 for an Epaulet Medium, a size 38 for an Epaulet Large, and so on."

Might be well worth ordering two sizes and sending one back.

Thanks frank! I am glad that you added that "edit". I wear a 38 sports coat and was watching the 38 cardigan. When I saw that I should have been watching the 36, I checked and there was one left. So I snagged it and (and a pair of Oxford grey flannels)!


With the temperature rise in St. Louis, it saddens me that these days for almost the whole winter all I need is a heavy cardigan for a winter coat. 10-15 years ago, we would go months without seeing more than a sporadic 40° day at the high end. Now the ground stays so warm my freeze susceptible plants don't even all die... I need to convince the GF to move north!

As a California native I have to say, you people are crazy lol. Still, I wouldn't mind the opportunity to wear my cold weather clothes more often.

Around 20 here. Heavyweight twill chinos are helping a lot. Also, will see how heavyweight chartreuse tweed behaves in these and more chilly conditions.

Hahaha! My mom is a manhattan beach CA native. She lived here for twenty years and recently moved back and we always find it funny to discuss the difference in the perception of cold between denizens of the two states ... I guess that it is all relative to wear you live.

 

Hey dude. I'm 5'9, 140 lbs. I wear a small in our shirts, 36 Southwick jacket and I'm wearing a 34 in the Hardie Cardigan. I'd say that if you're a 42 jacket, you'll want the size 40. Knits definitely need to be tighter in the beginning, as it will mold to you/stretch over time. 

 

If you have any other questions, feel free to PM me!

I'm curious to know Dylan's current measurements, and what size jackets he's wearing in the pics (he takes a medium in shirts amirite) 

 

You are correct. He wears a medium shirt and a 40 jacket taken in just a touch. I think he's 6'2" around 175. Basically our employees run the entire gamut of sizing!
