Can anyone comment on the fit of the "Slightly fitted, falls at hip" shirts by LLB Sig (the description of all the shirts from madras to hunter plaid to chambray...)? I like the look of a few of these. If anyone could compare the waist relative to J.Crew's cut, or a flat measurement at the waist on a Medium would be awesome (or fitpic!)

Thanks in advance

I checked out their Gingham Poplin Dress Shirt. The thing's like a tent on me; I wouldn't describe it as fitted at all. It's otherwise nice, though. I kept it and took it to the tailor to have the sides taken in.

thanks -- saw those measurements, and everything looked right so I went ahead and I'll take in the sides I guess.

Fall Winter preview. Goes on sale August 2nd.

Stuff I really dig
-The jungle boot looking Bean boots
-black leather and loden ranger mocs
-cargo pants
-all the blaze orange stuff
-mackinaw coats

That GIGANTIC shawl collar coat towards the end looks straight out of a vintage Sears Roebuck catalog.

Tried these on today. Really nice for the price. Wasn't crazy about the fit, though, so i didn't buy. It was a very full, straight fit. I felt like i needed some serious boots to fill the leg openings.

That suit is a real wasted opportunity. I would have killed for something like the Our Legacy one from Spring/summer with all the great detailing. Might be able to put something together like it from EG this season though...
