prolly trying to wear them too high


Agreed - I think that if you slide them down a bit you'll have a much better fit. The Walt trousers are meant to fit at that point, but the chinos are designed to be worn lower. For a lot of guys (me included) pulling them up a natural instinct.

Does that mean the oxford grey flannel trousers will pair nicely with my Red Wing Beckman Black Cherry boots? :colgate:

Also can I special order the Rudy Trousers to pick up instore? I don't live in the US but I'll be coming down this Christmas. Epaulet is sure to be my first stop!


Absolutely! They'd look boss as hell with black cherry Beckman's

And sure, we can hold merchandise for as long as you like. We do that all of the time for our international clients. Christmas is a great time to visit NYC! If you've never been to New York at that time, then this is my advice: think about the warm jacket that you want to bring and then take one that's 2x warmer than that. It's pretty freaking cold in New York during the holidays, and you'll want to spend time walking outside and seeing the city.

Oxford Grey or the Navy Flannel.  I've narrowed my choices.  What is your reasoning of the Oxford Grey over the Navy flannel?


If you have to pick one or the other, I always advise grey because it can be worn with both black and navy coats. And most guys have those in their closets. Navy trousers will clash a bit with a black coat and will look too matched up with a navy coat. Outside of a medium grey jacket, those Oxford Grey flannel trousers basically go with everything.

Of course if your favorite coat is medium grey, then the navy trousers would be the ticket.

The other solution to this issue of course is just to order a matching grey flannel jacket :)

I did that last year and it's been great. The jacket on its own is just as versatile as the trousers, in fact I've ended up wearing them as separates more often than as a suit, I think. Highly recommended.

Oh, you know how we roll! We've got some absolutely bonkers flannels coming up.

I like the way you think...

Previous summer I posted a couple of pics from my trip to Europe, and this year I came back to Ghent once again (seriously, guys, I can't recommend it enough) and then visited Barcelona for the first time. Took a couple of EP items with me as well: plaid poplin from last year, golden tattersall FF shirt, grey oxford chinos.

The amount of new product and options is truly getting out of hand!


This man speaks the truth!! I go to the website and see 10 different things I want, realize I don't have enough funds for all of it then close the browser. A week later there is a bunch of new stuff I want..... Good problem for Mike to have I guess :)

Just curious: Would it be possible to special order (MTO?) some Rivets in navy Duck Canvas? It's not a stock Rivet fabric, but you guys keep stock on the Walt...

If so, would it be the same price as stock Duck ($150) or more?

thanks in advance....
