Very nice! I love the Camel one.

Also, looks like some Inglese is up

Oh, and finally, my Eidos SC came in... Woohoo!

^^How is the fit of Eidos?

Slim. The 50 is a no go, the 52 fits well, but I am going to need to try it on and take some pics to judge whether it is going to work with my hips. The construction, hand of the fabric, cut, etc., is great, I am just concerned with whether there is too much flaring.

Wearing my comfy clothes today, as I'm not feeling too hot, but I'll snap a picture for y'all later when I am wearing something more appropriate.

On the other hand, Denim Chambray Inglese kopped.

I got mine today too
As rec'd I went with a 54R, while I take a 52R in Formosa. It fits comfortably in the chest and waist, but I will note that as advertised, it wears short. Mine definitely does not cover my butt, but I may be able to get away with it because my arms are relatively short. I'll try to get a better pic later. And I echo Newcomer in that the details are fantastic - fabric, lapels, cut, etc.
Here's an obligatory ****** bathroom pic so you can see the shortness.

The copy on the pink oxford Inglese is wrong (at least the bit about having blue stripes).

Thanks!

@steveoly it looks a little short to me, at least with those trousers. I'd go L - or try it on with different, longer rise trousers.

LOL. I know, I know. I really should show a little more enthusiasm when trying on a brand new Eidos. My hangover got the best of me.

Thanks!

Thanks Greg. I will see how it works with different pants, but yes, I am leaning toward swapping it for the L.

I'm gonna need that green check Inglese. Awesome.

There is this really excellent Inis Meain gansey in a grey/brown/green bull wool that NMWA will be getting in. They showed me pics of the sample. I've been begging @conceptual 4est to sell me the sample for weeks now. Possibly a month. He said that he "wants to", but that I needed to build up some steam for it on the forum. So... yes, I can apparently be blackmailed.

Hey, Kyle, can I post one of the pics?

 

[MGoCrimson]

Sooo has anyone had a wool A1 bomber jacket taken in at the waist/back before?

I have seen that sweater and it is fantastic. Definitely on my must kop immediately list when it drops.

It can work.... but...

1) A fair bit of work, or very little, depending on the construction of the waistband.
2) A1s are not supposed to be fitted, and they look more natural when they are slightly blousy and cinch in in the waist.

How slim are those Inglese shirts? I read the measurements but they don't always tell the whole story given body types and so forth.
