The description for the roll necks says that they are made with "2/28 cashmere from Todd & Duncan". Does "2/28" mean 2-ply / 28 gauge (stitches per inch)?

2 = 2 ply (how many yarns)
28 = 28 meters per 1 g (measure of fineness of the yarn)

Hey Greg, Edouard. there seems to be a discrepancy in the Big John Slim Tapered Jeans. The name says it's a 14 oz denim but the description under the item says it's 12 oz denim so I'm curious as to which is correct. Thanks.

Sorry about the mix up, the faux slub (blue denim) is 14 oz and the Kuro2 (black denim) is 12 oz.

Fit looks really good for you. And it looks like it is going to be warm. I'll look forward to more photos.

frank, the whole ensemble looks great. what are the jeans?


Thanks. Jeans are from Gustin.

Frank, deets on the gloves please.


Gloves are Geier kangaroo, unlined.

That. Is the way. To do it.


Thanks! I was really excited to get this coat on.

Thanks. It is a nice fit. Now I need to take photos that look at least as good as yours!

USPS tracking tells me Canada Customs is now pawing through my haul. Since the items are made in Italy and UK, I'm steeling myself for the biggest amount of duty and taxes I've ever paid for a package. This web site estimates $470, but I'm preparing for twice that.


I hope the Canada/EU free trade agreement gets signed. Duties on most European goods should disappear.
