Damn I love EG, outside of various kops my money will probably be strictly with EG outerwear. I have 4 jackets from EG and they are all in constant rotation. I really want to try their pants out. How do the workaday fatigues fit? What size should I get if I am normally a 33ish?


I am a big fan of their shorts as well.

This is a bit off topic, but I figure someone here must have some insight:

I'm located in Canada and looking to order some EG stuff from Oi Polloi. Can anyone give some anecdotal experience on the customs fees they were charged? Right now I'm thinking it would be cheaper to proxy + mark as gift than risk a 35% charge for customs+brokerage+tax...

My experience is way off topic from EG but I bought a Heritage Research parka on sale for around $200 and was charged around $65 in customs & brokerage.

Picking up the Trail Parka (Navy) soon. I wanted to get some info on the fit. Anyone here wear one? How's the fit? I usually sport a Medium in the EG. Thinking about going for a small.

i tried the Trail Parka, it is definitely a wider cut than their regular parkas.

It's supposed to fit bigger.. I think if you were to downsize it would be restrictive in certain areas

From my experience I would say go with your normal EG size; a size down would probably be restrictive in the shoulders.

Saw that Bastille in San Francisco had this in stock in S and M. They had one on the mannequin, didn't ask the size though.

What is this cardigan called and where can I find it? Also interested in the beanie.


Beanie and Cardigan are non-EG. Not sure the brands. The images were from North Rim (http://www.northrim.cc/style/index.php).

Got the work shirt in natural today in the mail. Based on the size measurements I've seen I sized up to XL since the shoulder size is 18" - big mistake. The shoulder is fine but the sleeves are very wide and puffy (I know Puffy Shirt) and it's very long. I love EG but I wish the sizing was more consistent. Anyway it's back in the mail.
