I am rooting for large check because I wanna see how people wear that coat...but I got the other two. Camel is, in my opinion, the best one. Just look at Greg's fit pic if you don't believe me.


Blond and pale I'm always wary with "beige", especially top block.
How do you feel about that?
What's your Memory size, btw, David?
5 for slim and 6 for layering?
(just in case... and no pun)

I too forgot to list my size in the gift box. I sent Greg an email yesterday. I am size IV in the juncus. Go with same in the memory?

I went with navy cause I already have camel and charcoal coats. Navy doesn't seem to be getting much love here but it looks great. To me at least.
Team navy here. Classic, can't go wrong.

I think Navy will be perfect @budapest12 Defiantly can't go wrong.


Is anyone around 5'8 and worry that Memory will be too long? :hide:

I think the outer shell is significantly darker than beige...the hood is more beige-y. Anyway I'm not that into the "colors that go with certain complexions" stuff. But here's a picture from a couple of seasons ago (I think this is the Decks jacket, which is more beige than the camel Memory would be IMHO, and somehow still available in couple of sizes).

My Merino is a 6 and I'm happy with the fit of that one. 5 would be impossible. I've tried on a 7 and it would have worked, if a little bit oversized.

1. If I didn't already have a navy top coat Id be team navy.

2. I love long coats.

3. I wish I had the cajones to wear the check. :(

Thanks. Not to burst any bubbles, I quit the complexion game for now. ;)

My Merino is a 6, too. Shoulders are spot on, body is pretty wide, which is needed for the inlay and room to layer, no doubt.
I assume the Memory is pretty much the same size, maybe a tiny bit trimmer in the body?

You could pull it off.


Of that I have no doubt, bro. It's just that I would like to wear that coat as much as possible and I know that in many surroundings I would be uncomfortable with it and how I would be perceived. Booo
