I've seen three fits amongst the shirts. The 1940s shirt is a bit more relaxed. Generation shirt is pretty slim throughout the body. The 1950s shirt is somewhere in between the Generation Shirt and the 1940s Shirt.

I haven't tried on the first shirt and we have not stocked it yet but from what I remember it was slightly shorter than most OL shirts.

I received my jean jacket last week. Color is great, the same color as pictured on TBS. As far as the quality, the fabric is very light and quite thin. I think this is due to the linen. The fabric resembles more of a denim shirt, but it still looks like a jacket. Great for layering and those hot spring/summer days. Fit is a little boxy, which a jean jacket should be anyways. I like it and have already layered it a few days out of the week, as it is still cold in San Francisco this time of year.


hey is yours size S?

I tried emailing our legacy but they respond to emails like never.

I would like to know what the length is like on these jean jackets, sigh...

thanks. Are the sleeves also slim (taking into consideration its a light jacket of course)? Really like the slim sleeves of 1940's shirts.

God the more I'm looking at detailed shots the more **** I want to buy. Never knew the unstructured blazer in constellation navy had specks on it. Now I want that one too sigh ... has anyone got that one?

I got that blazer coming some time next week. Hopefully it works out, then I'll have gotten my 3 blue summer blazers out of the way.

I actually just ordered the Constellation blazer this morning. I'll post some impressions and some pictures next week.

Got the constellation blazer today. Only got to unbox it before I had to head back into work. Initial impressions was that it's very thin/lightweight, so it would be perfect in the hot, humid, dog days of summer.

Is that the really really unconstructed one they have that is almost like a shirt?
