Hi Mike,

Do you have enough grey Hopsack to do a MTO sportcoat? If so, could I order the stock Walt trouser to match or is there an issue with the dye lots?

Thanks!

Nope. Solid prices, amazing service and lots of dialog and input. And when stuff does get marked down, it's a great deal. Check the sale section to see if anything's in your size.

Yes, we've got enough to do about a dozen MTO's. Exact same batch of fabric as the current season Walt Grey Hopsack, so this prime time to pick up the whole suit. This fabric tends to get zapped pretty quickly by in-store guys looking for wedding suits. Drop us an email and Matt can set it up for you. MTO jacket would be $750, OTR trousers are $265, so a hair over a grand for both pieces. We can also do vests now too for a 3-piece joint....

This jacket is the best fitting one on Logan yet. Was it MTO?

I feel like many of the jackets he models look too big, TBH. :nest:



But I'm sure one reason I liked Dylan as a model is/was because we wear the same size.:revolve:

Yup, that was an MTO. Logan's been on the signature Epaulet Weight Loss Plan which has made him a bit smaller than most of our off the rack fits, so things are looking deceptively baggier on him these days. Dylan's going to resume most of the fit modeling, and we've got a new guy as well who's coming on board soon.

Hopefully that comment didn't make me sound like a jackass.

Haha, no you're entirely right. No knock on Logan as I've currently got the opposite of his "too slim for Epaulet OTR" issue. Somehow Adele's former pregancy weight is finding its way back to me. Possibly related to how quick and easy the pizza place is when you're exhausted.

I know what you mean!! Shovel down the easiest thing, as quickly as possible...I am going Jenny Craig this time around. I know it sounds kinda crazy but its actually pretty great. It takes all the guess work out of trying to decide on something each night and provides decent portion control. Certainly not a long term sustainable model but for a few months I figure its not the worst thing in the world

Two New LBM Jackets

Quick note - we just received two really killer pieces:

1000

L.B.M. 1911 Double Breasted Navy: $750

I'm a HUGE fan of this piece. Some of you guys might know that I have it in white. I find DB's a bit hard to wear in most instances, but this is comfortable and easy. I wear this Navy one in Santa Monica a few times a week. The fit is really spot on.

1000

L.B.M. 1911 Single Breasted Olive Silk/Linen Donegal: $745

I like to call things "The Best." But I try not to exaggerate or overuse that.

Take it from me that this is the best fabric that LBM has ever offered. It's GORGEOUS in person and wears extremely light. I've never seen anything quite like it, and this olive jewel tone is a knockout.
