The green linen trousers are one of the coolest things in the store IMHO. I wouldn't really have thought they'd look so good and be so versatile until seeing them in person, but you could have a pair of those and a pair of beige linens and be pretty set for the whole summer.


I am debating between the greens and the dark brown. Clearly I missed out on the beige twill. The green look very nice though, and I imagine that they are quite versatile.

Trunk show was awesome, copped the Schneider navy baseball jacket. I can't believe I missed all the fun on Sunday.

Stitchy you need to get the khaki Schneider coat, it looks awesome on you (Well it's awesome in general).

Some of the items on the NMWA site look just okay to me or my eyes pass right over them on a regular basis, but then photos from the trunk show change my mind - the Schneider Decks hooded jacket is a perfect example. Very nice.

There are a fair amount of items that just looks so much better in person and when seen worn than just in the pictures online.

I find that to be the case with many of the items that are not hard-core MC.

How does the navy dobby cotton hooded jacket look in real life? It's on my to-get list (as in possibly next month).

I'd go for the Schneider baseball jacket except it probably wouldn't fit me right. (Would have to go to size 5 to get the shoulders to fit, but then the rest of the jacket would look too relaxed on me in that size.)

Thanks for posting the pics. I thought I made up my mind to purchase a Cantarelli jacket, but after seeing the Carmoshita suit in action, I am not so sure now.

FWIW, both of those pieces are meant to look relaxed - neither is cut to be slim fitting.

Thanks. I'm not worried about the hooded jacket, but a little hesitant about the Schneider. It should already look relaxed on me in size 4 based on the measurements (except for my shoulders), not sure sizing up one will quite work.

Yes, 5 would be just too large for you. 4 is probably right

There's a kind of pick-and-pick-looking very light blue linen I thought was pretty awesome. But my favorites were mostly the ones that Greg chose already for NMWA stock.
