Very nice of you to help out thanks alot mate. Are you referring to this knit jacket? http://www.contextclothing.com/item.php?id=3315 Do you remember if he had a size S or M and if it was on sale as they are old pieces? The Olive wool Duffle would be FW12 yes. I think I will drop him an email.. That outfit looks stunning, love the Needles rebuild stuff, got one of the vests myself and I tried on that jacket while I was in New York. I could do both medium and large in it but I preferred the fit of the large as the medium got a bit tight and a bit more "dressed". The L fit me like your jacket fits you I think, what size are you in that jacket? What is that C1 vest? Is it an old item? It looks great, do you have another picture of just the vest?So I made it to Tailor at the Tannery on Saturday and got the c1 vest - massive thanks to Jagger_On for the heads up!It is awesome. Also got some brown duck fatigues - fabric is great. Went with a 32 and they're a bit loose in the waist but good otherwise. Fine with with waist tabs cinched and/or belt. Think a 30 would have been too slim through the leg for my taste (he didn't have a pair in a 30 to try). As for Tatt's stock - the denim work jacket was indeed this season's denim coverall jacket - really nice and still had it in like 3 sizes, plus pineapple chambrays, the field shirt jacket with shawl collar in navy, black paisley cord western shirt, grey plaid miner shirt, brown/red/blue workshirt (only larger sizes though I think), some guy was buying an ldt while I was there - not sure they had another, and yeah the red Salmon people peacoat, navy/floral hooded vest, some black wool/polka dot reversible vests, black wool cinch pants too I think... brown duck fatigues, obviously. Old season stuff- one orange iridescent round collar shirt from ss13, field jacket in khaki from ss13, that knit jacket from fw12 that Context carried in a couple sizes (really nice), couple of fw12 storm parkas in khaki, olive wool duffle coat (forgotten what size, season maybe fw12 as well? I dunno) Also spotted a Needles floral loafer jacket from ss13 stuffed in the far corner. I asked specifically if he had the polka dot vest Shingles and he said no. I have a feeling that doesn't necessarily mean there isn't one hidden under a heap in the stockroom though. Who knows. The guy there seemed very friendly though he was walking around eating a bag of crisps (chips to you Americans), had run out of carrier bags, and generally seemed a bit haphazard. I think he remembered Jagger_On asking about the C1 vest and was like "That Scottish guy, your friend, he told you about it right?" and "He is Scottish isn't he?" and kept asking about you, which made me feel slightly awkward haha. Trying it out. brown duck seems to match the door...

Nice, I'm glad you managed to get the vest. Looks great. Think its from FW12.

Thanks for the information. Ok! Yes I guess they vary a bit too. I'm one inch shorter than you but 162 lbs and about 41" around the chest. I generally wear M in EG outerwear depending on the measurements and if the fabric is stretchy or not. Can rarely bend my arms inwards completely, and sizing up ruins the look/fit. But you'll get used to it.yeah thats the knit jacket he had. Didn't check the sizes I'm afraid (they were displayed kinda high up rather than on the racks iirc) but visually I'd guess M/L. Don't think he has old season stuff on sale unfortunately - the C1 is old season (ss or fw12 I think?) and was full price. Thanks! My Needles rebuild is M (I'm 5'10" 140ish, more or less an M in EG). Layered up and buttoned up its quite fitted, but nicely loose and comfy with just a shirt / tee. I think they probably vary a bit though. Here's some shots of the C1 - the colour's off - its a darker navy than this - but you get the idea. Its nuts.
Ah yes, I remember that vest now. It's very special! Crazy pocket design. Cool you still could find one. ----- On a trip to Copenhagen:
