Surprised this hasn't come up in SW&D, got a chance to check this stuff out at sw today and I have to say it's probably the only work wear type stuff I would ever wear. I'm not really a fan of designer work wear but the original is so cold, terribly cut and outsourced from the US that it wasn't an option either.
Anyways, there were only two things Ryan had which were the diagonal quilt jacket and the montagne jacket. The company is based in Seattle (paging robin) and everything is made in the US and the construction/feel of the jackets are top notch including the materials as well. The company has been around since the 70s and it actually is authentic stuff, not inspired, remade, etc. The quilted jacket felt very margiela-esque and the prices are downright cheap.
You would have to size down one for a slim fit, the M fit me perfect and I'm a 40 (50) euro usually. You guys can read more about it on their website and southwillard will be getting more pieces in including the quilted shirt jacket, it's a small operation and I believe Colette carries it as well. I was really tempted to buy the jacket today actually.
