do you mind posting measurements? which buttondowns were they?

These would be close to perfect if they were 9.5" inseam - probably gonna get em tailored, but for now I cuff them up an inch and a half.

What's the actual waist measurement on the 32" lightweight solid club shorts? I'm usually a standard 32 but I never know if things are vanity sized. I'm in Canada so would never be able to try on anyways. Just blindly purchase from the website.

Tried the vintage polos on in the store this weekend. Fit is very similar to the repp tailored.

Club shorts are TTS. Go 32.

I feel like the vintage tailored fit polo was a tiny bit shorter in the body as well.

The J. Crew vintage and repp polos are both nice, especially in solid colors. I don't know why I'm ambivalent about polos in general though. I have a few but I don't find them terribly interesting to wear. I find I prefer a good t-shirt instead.

I got a couple of the vintage polos a few weeks ago, the first time I had bought polos from Jcrew in 2 years. Have I shrunk or have their polos gotten a lot longer?

For you short sleeve shirt nutters, jcrew added a few to their website today. Also a few other things too, like a denim workshirt.

Mister Freedom tees! But it looks like they are just Cristophe's stencils on J Crew shirts? If so, they're not worth the same price as the ones he printed on deadstock naval tees. Edit: Word from kiya is that these are repros from Toyo (including the tees) not deadstock tees hand stenciled by Christophe like the MF tees at SE.
