Really happy about this too, always been really keen on Nonnative but been unable to get any due to tiny sizing.

How tall are you guys? I've got a Nonnative long tunic that doesn't quite fit me.

Maybe mentioned in previous posts but can someone explain how thin those high count twill cinch trousers are? My region stays caliente 8months of the year. I found the poplin pima cotton material (from last year) very thin and bearable in the heat.

Barneys has the SS EGxGolden Bear collab – first place I've seen it:

I like this batik blazer. does anyone know which is the true color -- or does it actually come in a light and a dark version?

Thanks, man. You asked if I saw them at American Rag. I did not on Sun but went back today and realized that I missed a whole rack of EG there, including those pants and their sister in khaki. They had the whole run of sizes in both but the 34 in olive is now at my home ...

5'11". The tunic fit me best in a 3 and I am not a slim dude. 4 would work for a more slouchy look. I think theirs are superior to EG tunics this season.

Very thin and airy - for twill anyway. Very soft to the hand. Perhaps feels just a tad more substantial than tropical wool, though not by much. I think with the tropical wool likely the thinnest fabric this season for pants.

Comes only in this printed canvas cotton. I feel the first picture is more representative, second looks way too dark. I pulled the pics below from TBB and Nepenthes which I think are very accurate. A really great piece, however, I could not immediately figure out the best colors to match. I saw it modeled with very dark navy and it worked. I can also see it with EG khaki this season or any of the colors in the fabric. Then again, who am I talking to? There is probably nobody better on the planet to make it look stellar than you

Nephew – I'm worried about you wearing EG in good health. Did you not see how easily you could wear that jacket with staple olive and navy EG trou?

Parker knows what's up. That jacket to me is one of the 2 or 3 best this summer. From all the pics I've seen it does seen the brighter pic is more representative.

With a white t and faded jeans w vans/Adidas can't be beat.

I might try to find it in SF to save on shipping heh.

Would also be the bomb w this seasons willy post or balloon pants. White pants/jeans, blue jeans, chambray blue trousers, green fatigues.. Shorts.. Etc etc. Perfect summer blazer for me.

Thanks for the response brotha. Would you say it is thinner than the 6.5oz flat twill fatigue pants (khaki) versions? I got a pair of those in last week and they are a bit thick to wear in the sun.

Has anyone seen any shops in the states with the Blue Chambray Shop Coat worn by Marcial in Look #3 of the "Don't Hold Me Close" Feature? http://nepenthesny.com/dhmc/
It's a beautiful piece that reminds me of the Duster Jacket from last season (SS14) but with a simpler design which I find more attractive.

I am loosing it, uncle. And my mental state was very questionable when I tried it on at American Rag. That store always overwhelms me Thank God you and uncle Penance came to the rescue.

I need me some faded jeans. What do you guys like with EG?

Mike

is the uncle/nephew **** a joke or are you guys using it seriously?

thanks EG dudes. the lighter color I like better so that's good. now to find it in a Med.
I was also thinking of pairing with faded banged up jeans and Vans.
