edit: Read through the rest of the Measurement info, guess I'll go remeasure myself with my tailor.

The fit of the Napoli is the same as the Daltrey/Weller/Caine. 

The only difference is that the Napoli has no padding in the shoulder.

Sydney, in winter, has a spectrum of 50 to 70 degrees (F). However, if it is windy, it can get a bit cooler.

 

It appears to be one of your top cardigans, knitted in the U.K, I assume it is of pretty high quality.

I'd say that the Hardie is good down to about 40 degree F. It would probably be comfortable up to about 70F or so. 

It's incredible quality and, honestly, one of my favorite knitwear pieces that we've ever done. It's a little more on the side of outerwear than a layering piece, but I think it would be an almost perfect jacket-type piece for Australia.

It's similar, but in my opinion a hair lighter.

I'd say it's pretty close to the Cadet Grey Merino Walt trouser that we are currently stocking. It's definitely not as textured as the Air Force flannel, but fairly close in color. It's a nice tone for a light blue/greycast odd jacket.

Also, is the Maroon Herringbone Tweed close to a brown at all?

Thanks guys,

The grey Donegal is the same fabric as the Daltrey we ran last year. It's a grey Donegal tweed with red flecks. I'll see if I can find a close up of my jacket.

That tweed definitely reads in the red family. That said, I think that if you pair it with something in the blue or brown family it could take on a slightly different tone. That's one of my absolute favorite fabrics that we've had the pleasure of making jackets in. It's ridiculously awesome.

Hi epaulet,

After weeks of searching I cannot find anyone who has non shell longwing boots in stock in a last I am happy with and a uk 10.5. Alden has an 18 month waiting list for chromoexcel plazas and getting a c&j skye 2 just aint gonna happen. Were I slightly better off, id go for your shell steinbeck boots but alas I am not. Do you anticipate getting any further stock in carmina calf or CXL steinbecks in the near future? 

Harris tweed ordered. Wake me up when it's April-June.
