It would not be easy to effectively taper our Escobar sweats. We flatlock stitch everything inside out. It might be easier with the Gap version.

Darn, that sucks. Guess I'll have to deal with the looseness.

JE is right. Not many ppl can do the stitching the way they do it. But, you actually technically can get them taken in, althought JE is right though 95% sure they will not be able to replicate the flatlock stitch so i would recommend if you must take them in to do it on the inner leg as most tailors like to take in on the outer, that way with the inner not having that particular stitching it would not be less noticeable. Hope this helps!

Why would you not restock the charcoal hoodie JE?

Do you not want to take our money?

...

Pretty sure they want to keep their things classic, and not take away from what the brand has to offer.
Exclusive capsules would be no fun if they restock things like that.

They could care less about money, they enjoy bringing great clothing for those who appreciate simple products with details.

Super stoked with my first foray in to JE, but disappointed that I didn't place my order soon enough to get the special edition magazine.

Anyway, some fit pics if you're interested.


Sand Villain, Grey Mercer, Duo Escobars

(I'm sending the Villain back for a size smaller - the Medium is just too big in the chest I think)






The sweats are perfect. Comfortable, but slim, and man I wish a pair of the midnights was still available.

Flannel, Black LS Mercer









The flannel is sick, but I did expect the leather to be a little more substantial. Still: it fits like a glove, feels great, definitely keeping it. The black LS mercer also looks amazing on its own, might be my favorite item.

Actually, the inseam is flatlock stitched on the current FW14 Escobars. The outseam is not. I'm sure it would be possible to taper our sweats, but the inseam would most likely be harder to replicate the stitch on, as most places do not have this type of machine.

We are not restocking the Charcoal color because ti was part of the Midnight Collection, a limited capsule. We do not restock these limited, exclusive collections. Sorry about that!
