just got my new wool rivets... either i'm getting fatter or the rivets are getting smaller. I mean I can fit into a 32, but its getting tight... how tight is too tight? If you can see ****** move when I clench... is that too tight?


agree, not sure if the wool rivets are cut more like the oxford rivets than the duck rivets, but i found the wool to be tighter in the seat

Damn nice job!


Thanks dudes! Much appreciated.

What DB blazer are you wearing?
If there is one negative to living in SF, it is that there is no summer to fall transition. Summer, fall, and even winter kind of flow into each other.

It's a Daffy's special. I really have no idea who made it, but it fits well, is constructed nicely and I've been looking for a DB. Oh, it was also around $60. Having never been to Daffy's before, I soon realized it's like a real life Yoox. I had to dig, but maybe the best purchase in that price range I've ever made.

Yeah I was having the same problem...had to return mine unfortunately. Think I'll stick with wool Rudy's and Duck Rivets. I think I could wear variations of only those 2 cuts of pants for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy. :D

Hey Mike, looking for a update on the Rudy factory finds round 1? Thanks in advance.


Just got word on those, we're expecting them around the end of next week. Apologies for the delay on that - it turned out that the Round 1 Rudy cut was really small, and the factory pushed it out. The larger the cutting, the faster it generally gets done, as they're trying to get as much cut work to the rest of the factory. Round 2 won't have this delay because we took well over 70 Rudy orders for that. We'll let you guys know the very moment that they arrive.

no more walt factory finds? :confused:


Oh no, all of the Factory Finds can of course be ordered in Walt too. They'll be plenty to go around.

This is a good guideline. We've sold a ton of wool rivets to guys at their usual sizing without an issue. But if the Duck Rivets fit you slim and you're on the edge of the Walt vs. Rudy cut, then you may find them a bit too snug in the seat, at least off the rack. They can, of course be let out in both the waist and the seat though. And since they cannot be washed, you don't have to worry about any kind of shrinkage.

^ Good stuff. I'm a bit hesitant to size down to small according to general advice. Measurements say 19.5 for the chest, while I'm 38 in the chest. A medium in Epaulet shirts fits me pretty slim..

Hey dudes! Got a VERY limited run of Southwick Tweed jackets in a couple of days ago. We don't have many units and have already sold a few in stores, so if you dig one, I would recommend picking it up with the quickness.


Southwick for Michael Kuhle Caine Sportcoat Peat Marl


I've been looking for a brown-ish sport coat and thought this is probably what I'm looking for so I copped. Hopefully it works out well.
