    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    I just got the Field Jacket in Navy. Boy, that's one of the best jackets EG has ever done IMHO. Right up there with the best pieces from the SS2006 collection (still my favourite one). The length is just right, not too short. My only quaint little issue is the sizing. EG never seems to stick to...

    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    I'd say that, if anything, Engineered Garments has a stronger "Americana" identity then they did at it's inception. When we were doing the EGxSF belts, Daiki told me that they used to do the belt in all sorts of crazy materials, like Ponyskin, for the Japanese market. I think that with the...

    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    I guess the problem is now with EG getting a lot of attention from GQ Magazine and the likes, the "fashion" crowd who usually buy Prada or other "glamorous" brands are getting on to it. They have other expectations for what they want to spend their money on, and the mindset...

    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    Is it true the new Binocular from S/S 08 fits smaller than the Wool one from Winter 07/08? I heard the news ones in XL are like the previous ones in L. But I can't confirm it myself because the next EG carrying store is a 2h flight away.

    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    Can someone help me - I was wondering if the Shawl Collar Sweat (see pic) fits big or small. In EG jackets and shirts, L is fine for me, while with sweatshirts it's sometimes either L or XL because the sleeves are very short. Thanks!

    FS or swap: Engineered Garments Trenchcoat / Beige / Size L *BRANDNEW* never worn

    Hi guys, I have a brand-new, never worn Engineered Garments beige trenchcoat from Summer '07 here. I bought it but out of a bit of too much enthusiasm even though the color beige is really no good for me as I have very light skin. Now, I want to either sell it OR swap it with the black one...

    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    The shoes look like dark brown or black bucks, and look to be of the same type as the white bucks in the other pictures. As for the lookbook pieces, I imagine they'd want to show off the stuff that will most likely be ordered by stockists and there's always lots more that shows up by the time...

    Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 08

    I like this collection, but it seems they are doing fewer pieces with every collection. Especially I was hoping for more outerwear and shirts. Let's see what eventually materialises. I got to get these shoes: 2nd picture of the series, right side. Looking not actually spectacular, but exactly...

    2007 S/S Engineered Garments

    Can anyone owning a store sell me this shirt in Size L ? Japanese stores only carry it up to M! @ Eggplant. Colorful madras. Cheers

    2007 S/S Engineered Garments

    damn I just wanted to say that EG needs to look for an updated model look. That bearded guy looks like they pulled them out of a Berlin minimal techno club circa 2004. No offense to Nick, that beard is still "on" in 2007 I reckon.

    FS: ENGINEERED GARMENTS Heavy wool winter coat XL

    That, that is really nice. If I was a huge dude (say, jacked up about 50 lbs of muscle), I'd take it in a sec. That pattern is cool. hehe start working out now ... then again you would probably have to take lots of illegal substances to be that huge in time for winter ;-)

    FS: ENGINEERED GARMENTS Heavy wool winter coat XL

    Hi everybody, I have a very warm winter coat by E.G. for sale. It has never been worn, comes without tags. It's too big for me, and it breaks my heart not being able to wear it. Anyway, I am putting it on eBay tomorrow evening (PDT). I'd rather sell it someone here who can appreciate it fully...
