very true

that said, I would kill for a Panta-made sweater styled exactly like the one he's wearing in the photo below made in the same grey cashmere you used to make your pants paired with the french buttons you also used on your pants. Would also love a vest in the same fabric if you ever decide to make them one day

My apologies if this has been addressed already, but are you also considering suits, sportcoats etc?

I'm waiting for the Panta longwing.

When it comes out, I will buy one in every hide and every color.

Good point as well. I think... Could you localize the comparison for the European audience?

Never. But AE seconds are for owning, treeing, and rubbing with Saphir Renovateur, the Elixir of the Gods...not for wearing. Their most holy soles flit above the base Earth.

Back to the Panta longwing: if anyone can solve the unsightly creasing problem, it will be Ed. I might be going on a limb, but I see a spaghetti welt in the future of this longwing.

Hmmm. Let me try. Tell me if this analogy works:

Scott Schuman is a professionial photographer in the same way that the Dutch are 2010 FIFA World Cupâ„¢ champions.

True.

There is definitely a talent, though, in making a living taking the same photograph over and over again. No one can take that away from him.

I agree.

(I think the Hairy Bikers are great, btw. So that analogy goes limp too"”as we say in Dutch.)

I hate how it's a true 3-button with almost no roll to the 2nd button.
