Ooops - meant to post this here but started a new thread by accident....

Hey guys,

This next Friday we're going to announce our sale of the season: which is mostly discontinued fabrics and last pieces of past styles. We're rolling out the sale prices as we speak, and I want you guys to have first crack at everything. Here's the link:

EPAULET ODDS N' ENDS SALE

Please note that all discounted items are final sale and we'll be happy to answer any questions or help you find your size before you purchase
.


So sweet.


What's the difference between Walt sizing and Rivet Chino sizing? If a Walt 34 fits well should I order a chino in 34 as well?


If you're good in a 34 Walt, 34 RC should be ok. It does sit lower on the waist and run narrower through the thigh though.

Hmm, that's odd. The online measurements say the Walt trousers in 34 have a 12.5" thigh, while the rivet chinos have a 12.75" thigh. Thanks for your advice though, because if the thighs really are smaller than the Walts a 34 chino won't fit me.

Damn the prices on the chinos look really tempting. I'm supposed to be saving up for a suit, though

Picked up a Napoli blazer from another forum member - the thing is absolutely perfect. exactly what i've been looking for in a blazer, and the fit is fantastic. I'll post a pic later tonight.

p.s. why is every shoe for sale in my size :fu:

There is nothing I want that's in my size - my wallet breathes a sigh of relief!

Edit: Correction - red Rivet bedford cords and a chocolate brown calfskin belt are on the way ... :)

Fwiw a 34 rivet is too tight or barely wearable while a 34 Walt is perfect.

In for the blue shortwings would have preferred the boot but at these prices. Hope it fits half size down than my normal size

I know my Snapseed+ photos aren't everyone's cup of tea in here, so I wanted to provide something useful. These are the NatCXL LWBs after 6 months of wear, care, Saphir Renovateur, and brushing. Hope it can help people out wanting to see how these age.

Alden x Epaulet Natural Chromexcel Longwing Blucher, at 6 months. Freshly MacMethod'd.

Mike and others - should I order a belt that's sized TTS or should I modify based upon my actual waist measure (36") ?

I take my 36 Walts in approx .5" to .75".

Thanks!!
