Another thumbs up for the EP Thorogoods. Not a better work boot for the price. Comfortable, fairly versatile, low-key toe box, get a lot of compliments on 'em.

How did I miss that? Anyways, its hard for me to imagine I could fit into a small or that the body would be long enough. I am 6'3 with a 40in chest..

Then why wouldn't you go with a medium or large? I don't understand what the problem here is.

I'm 6'4" with a 15.5-16 neck and 37 sleeve, and a 40-41 chest. Epaulet's large fits me better than any shirt I've ever worn off the rack. Great in the body and neck. The sleeves are just slightly short for me, but they're pretty damn close.

Assuming the other colors are also being restocked this could be dangerous for my wallet. I had tried the 38 (ended up being too small) and at the time was able to convince myself I didn't need it. Now with the plummeting temperature the past few weeks the cardigan is starting to look mighty tempting...

Does anyone have pics of the red chambray shirt? How is the color compared to the pics on the site? I was looking for a slightly darker color like the Gitman Vintage or J. Crew ones, but would prefer to go with Epaulet if the color is right.

Yup, these look really sharp with tapered jeans. Although they're workboots, the shape and toe box is significantly flatter than most similar styles on the market - especially Red Wing models. They pair brilliantly with the EP's Smith / APC New Standard shape.

Thanks for posting up the pic - they're a sharp match for the trousers!

Props for a great product guys.

Now I have to figure out if I want to score a pair of Thorogood moc toe boots or wait until the next Epaulet x Thorogood collaboration. You've got to rotate your boots, after all.

Thanks guys, really glad that you're pleased with them! We've been absolutely thrilled with the reception that the 685 boot has received. You can expect that we'll release custom makeups in this shape every season.

No, provided that you don't fry it in a dryer, then you shouldn't expect any thigh shrinkage on the Rivet Chino.

Yup, planning to grab a bunch of them straight from the workshop on Friday!

Yes, chances are you'd need the medium - and possibly even the large. The sleeve length should be alright. The collar might be a bit big and the body may be a bit too cropped to tuck in. If you're planning on wearing this tucked in with a tie then it might be an issue, but if you're going to wear it casually (untucked, open collar), then it should work well.

We should get them any day now - I know that the box is already en-route from Canada. We're restocking 36 in all three colors.

Er meant for the Streaky Jeans.

Oh no, you shouldn't expect any thigh shrinkage on those at all. And hang dry only on those! That streaky cone denim is too nice for a dryer.

Hey, forgot to post up my new tattoo. For any old-school hardcore fans out there, it was done by Civ of Gorilla Biscuits. I get it colored in on December 20th. What do you guys think?

PS: I'm not usually wearing black wife beaters. Just for special occasions. Like shoulder tat appointments. And da club.
