For what it's worth, the two main things I'd love to see for spring/summer:

2) Some unstructured linen blazers/suits.


+1 A suit in something like the grey or navy linen you offered in Walts last year would be fantastic. They were my favourite summer pants, and an unlined jacket would make them hard to beat.

Also, if you're thinking of doing more of the Napoli in duck canvas, please think about using the moss fabric. I've found that colour to be really versatile and easy to wear in the chinos, but it would still be a bit different.

I roll my rivets and hem my walts with a cuff on wool and none on cotton. It gives me a bit of everything and rivets really are my causal pants. I think I wear jeans hiking and working on the car.

... Damn, too bad the veneto next year will be a true navy. That is the exact color of my montecore quilted blazer from this year. What color will the vest be? A vest was one piece of outerwear that I did not get this year, so it will be at the top of my list next year! I am sure that I will be getting it regardless of color

I decided I would take and upload more detailed pictures of my Carmina caramel double monks. Some people asked me about my care regime last time I uploaded a picture. I think they have worn beautifully and have loads of character.

I have had them for about 7 months, worn 2-3 times a week and polished about every two months. I keep shoe trees in them when they aren't being worn. I polish them with Saphir neutral and then go over them with a bit of dab of water to even out the wax. Then I just buff them with a brush and a cotton rag.

I missed out on this one last time as well. As soon as I saw Matt's post I ran for my wallet and pulled the trigger.

Thanks, Frank. The jacket is burgundy cord and shirt is navy flannel.

I'm tempted on the chambray shirt too but I'm going to get the navy pythons and some sort of the Austerity boot so gotta restrain myself :(
