They are of the longer body length and sleeves were also shortened a tad (1cm on a sz 40). Continuing to refine our pattern with G Inglese based on customer feedback.

Also, several of the basics were restocked (white, blue, pink...)


Shortening the sleeves?! Come on - that is going the wrong way. If you have T-Rex arms you can take them to a tailor. Nothing you can do if you are 6'2 and above. Brutal.

We're the antidote to fast fashion.

If you cannot wait 15 seconds to buy a multi-hundred dollar garment, then maybe it's time for a 12 step program of some sorts.


Have you guys thought about changing web hosts? I've just done this (for other issues other than speed) but the speed of the site has improved out of sight. You guys are pretty smart so I'll assume you've addressed the speed with your developers/IT people, but there is no real reason it should be that slow unless your images are super super high res. Though, even high res images can be scaled down do not lose any noticeable detail on screen to the viewer while still being a lot smaller in size in pretty much any image manipulation program.

Hey Greg/Kyle,

Sent an email to [email protected] this morning, can you guys please check to make sure my message is not in the junk folder? Still awaiting reply.

Yep we got it. We'll get to it.

Did you see the part about 1cm? It's a very small change. You can stop by and try the new ones on - I'm pretty sure you'll be fine. There was just a wide majority of the customer feedback saying that the sleeves were too long.
Greg,
Were the chest and waist changed at all?

No change at all in the fit.

@Henry Carter there's actually a multitude of very real reasons the site is slower than we'd like, ranging from coding, script ordering, image resolution, cache expiration management, hosting/CDN, etc etc... We know that the site is a bit slow, we know what should be improved and have a list. It takes time and money to address this, and we will, but we have higher priorities right now, like bringing awesome products to our customers and showing them why they're great. Our focus is and will always be the products - the UI will follow, but it isn't first priority.

Anyone wants to talk about the products? :)

^ Argh (to David, not Greg)

On a similar note, I can't believe dat Camoshita duffle coat is still in stock. Looks so sick.

I know, Greg, I know...I just love the Inglese shirts so much and I want them to work badly. The sleeves were too short when I tried them on the very first season, but I am definitely going to try them on again when I come by to pick up my Camoshita duffel. It just doesn't help to be tall sometimes. Also I am surprised they work for you.

And sorry to whine - there is so much win at NMWA; I just can't speak more highly about the construction of Inglese. If they work for you, they are the best shirt on the market.

Last question: are you planning on restocking any of the Eidos suits? It looks like the navy herringbone is already sold out in 52L, which I think will be my size. I had planned on trying it on when I next visited -- as usual, don't sleep on anything stocked at NMWA. Gone with the quickness.

There really are some great things on the site right now. I think that Camoshita really hit it out of the park this season. I am generally a bit skeptical with regards to Japanese brands (I feel they often look better on certain builds, just IMO), but they have some really interesting stuff this F/W. The sport coats look great, and I would love to see what those pleated trew look like.

Amazing how fast some things fly off the shelf as well!

Greg, will the Merola peccary unlined gloves be restocked? Or possibly new colors?
