Whoa, those look great! Gorgeous in scotchgrain.
Yup, it's the Brentwood Country Mart, and we had a taco as well right before this pic. And then an artisanal pour-over coffee. That place has the bougie behavior.
So these LBM's have a funny story. They're all LBM 1911 jackets in cotton which we had left over at the end of the year. They were selling slowly on markdown, so I drove them to my LA dye house. These guys do the best natural indigo dyeing in the United States. We tested one jacket and it looked boss - and we then ran the whole batch.
They're a mix of canvas and poplin, and 2-button and 3-roll-2's. For some reason, we quite a few 50's, a couple of 48's, and I believe a single 52. We need to measure them out, but I believe they shrank by approximately one size (Size EU50 became more like an EU49) but we'll confirm that before they go live. They look awesome, and this fabric soaked up the dye bath beautifully. They'll go online in a little over a week and we'll have the priced at $450. I had them hanging at the Santa Monica closing event, so some of you Cali guys may have seen them there.
Always. We've got new styles on order for the Fall and we've reordered the Emersons from last year.
So they look great, have a great story behind them, and are one-of-a-kind makeup. Sadly none in a 48L US I am guessing. The guys that get to pick these up at such a low price point are extremely lucky.
