Mike,

I am eager to see your chinos for this season.

I am wearing the service pants now and they fit and feel amazing. They feel a lot softer yet more sturdy than my APC chinos that cost me $50 more. At $150, they are a great value.

I took them to get hemmed, and the tailor complimented the construction of the pants too. This tailor knows her stuff when it comes to construction of clothing so it was quite a compliment!

^ We should have a "Tailors complimenting Epaulet" thread. I think this happens to many people. The first time this happened to me, my tailor had just finished marking a pair of Kiton trousers, and was impressed mightily with the Walts.

A few weeks ago, when I went to pick up my pair of Harris Tweed Walts after having them cuffed, my tailor was all excited, telling me how much fun she had had working on them and how they just don't make pants like these anymore :)

How lightweight is Chambray? Doesn't really get too hot here in SF.

Was hoping that there would be a navy pindot like that one that was released in Fall.

Also, whoever's on the fence about the koi shirt, do not hesitate, it's amazing.

Picked up the Indigo Pindot Chambray...

The Gitman or the Epaulet one?

Wish I hadn't slept on the Gitman Indigo Pindot Chambray in size Medium. Would pick that up from someone if anyone is selling (or if Mike is getting a return).

Mike,

I read on the site that the service pants resemble that of the Smith jeans. Do you guys plan on carrying more of the jeans? If so, what colors? Please tell me you're going to have black!

Also,

when are your chinos going to come in. I'm looking at picking up fun colors to wear to work for the spring/summer. It would be nice if you can do really bright and silly colors ie red, purple, light blue.

I'm really digging the fit of the pants.

I believe Mike has said he's finished with the denim game.
