Any Schneider this season?

Greg mentioned somewhere (maybe on Slack) that Schneider has changed its business model in a way that doesn't work for retailers like NMWA. So, no Schneider.

I see a few LEJ pieces have landed today- expecting more? Had my eye on the winter plage coat in herringbone and the one pocket shirt. thx

Schneider may work out down the line, just caught off guard this season

We have a charcoal blouson coming later on, but that's all for this season. A few styles wound up getting cancelled due to manufacturing issues so it's pretty light.

Anyone know the conventional wisdom on whether the Valstarino should be sprayed with Saphir suede protectant before wearing? I got the chocolate if it matters. Thanks all.

i did but it might not be necessary. simon says he doesn't do it anymore but has got a video on it

I spray Saphir Superinvulner on any and all suede I own.

agreed, done to my Alden snuff suede without any ill effects, can't hurt but may not be necessary.

I received my William Lockie chunky cardigan the other day, however sizing doesn't match. There is no size info anywhere on the cardigan's tags, only on the detachable tag and I suspect it was misplaced 🤷
I ordered size S and it should have 41 inch chest, however my cardigan measured to 44 inches, which is size L.
Support, unfortunately, didn't reply to me.
I am not sure if I should exchange it for an XS or this was indeed a mess up with sizing tag and XS will be too small for me.
Can anyone with WL cardigan please measure if their chest measurements match website?

Anyone who has owned the Blurhms Hard and Soft sweatshirt - do they shrink? I just got one and love it, but if they shrink I should size up on the other color. Thank you!

Scottish/Lockie shawl cardigans tend to be sized true to their measurement. So a "40" actually has a 40" measurement. So unless NMWA is doing custom house sizing, I'd think you have a "L" sweater.

There is a small size tag right underneath the WL tag in the neck area. This should tell us if the hang tag was mismatched.

Measuring knits, especially heavily ribbed and stretchy ones like these, is the least precise endeavor I can think of. Give me one of these cardigans and a tape and let me lay it down on a table and measure it 5 times and I guarantee that I will get 5 different readings.

That said, if it's too big for you, you should take the next size down

the Lockie cardigans are our own pattern and sizes, so sizing is likely different from what you might've had with other Scottish makers, or even other Lockie knits.
