Sorry man, I had my eye on those for a little bit now had to nab them.
Mike, pretty please oh please ship these USPS, I dread the day I have to see another one of those brown/yellow UPS door tags.
I feel the same way - USPS has a key to my building, UPS does not. And I have to drive across the city to get to the UPS customer center to pick up my deliveries.

Yes, there most definitely will be when we fully launch it. The measurements and ridiculous amount of copy are two of our signatures, so they'll both make a full return!
Maybe while you're at it, you could have it proof-read once again - some funny typos lurking here and there (like, "you're jeans")

Working on all the new product for this week. I've got two quick preview shots:

1000

Our new tie collection is done in unlined virgin merino wool, all handmade in London. It's almost illegal how nice these are. And this hound print on the dark grape ground is so freaking ace.

1000

So, I've been promising some denim for a while now. This week, that promise shall come true! How about the Walt trouser in a lush, streaky Italian dark indigo denim? It's going to ship raw and unwashed, but I'm doing a wash test for shrinkage tonight. This fabric is gorgeous, and I'm just expecting an inch or so of inseam shrinkage. But we'll include a full report with the launch.

shirt/sweater combo is great there.
jeans are a little baggy for my tastes.


Thats what I hate about LVC, still a couple of soaks away from optimal fit...we'll get there.

Ok, so I just read about denim trousers last week coincidently and the idea sounded awesome! So do you wear these with a crease and are thy fairly dressy? Like, I work in an environment where I can where chinos or trousers. Would these most likely fit in to that group or does is still look more like a jean? I am excite!

Finally ordered Oxford Grey Flannel trousers and will get denim trousers as well:nodding:

Let's just say that Mike and Epaulet staff are always helpful and willing to go extra mile for their customers.

Haha, that's how we roll!

You could crease them. These will be side-to-side pressed, so there's no crease in the center like our typical Walts.

This is an excellent denim for a trouser. It's 12oz, very soft, and has a great super-dark indigo tone. I wouldn't compare it to to the usual Cone Mills / Kurabo / Raw / Japanese thing on the market. I love that kind of denim, but I wouldn't try to make a Walt trouser out of it. The vibe on this is a bit dressier, and more in the Zegna & Isaia camp then the APC & Iron Heart one. This works brilliantly as a casual trouser, and it's intended to be a way to wear a sportcoat and jeans without wearing a sportcoat and jeans - if you catch my drift. It will most likely fade nicely with wear, but not the kind of nutzo denim-head fades that you typically see.

So... what Carminas are coming in this week, and when can we expect to see them? (I am hoping someone stocks a black Rain-lasted captoe soon.)
