Eta for Inglese wool polo pre-orders ?

That's not a thing !

Unless I've been sleep-posting or something

Lol I think I made up the wool part then...just went back through the pre-order thread and saw it's Oct/Nov so I'll assume that's still the case.

Great idea on the new drops.

Meetings will be organized accordingly.

 

[gdl203]

We have three types of polos coming this fall: cotton pique (same as before + couple new colors); cotton jersey; and cotton flannel (that's a shirting material, less stretchy than pique and jersey).

Only a few colors arrived of the cotton flannel so far but they have to go back to Italy for alterations as Inglese made a mistake and they are 2" too long across all sizes.

SO, we're still holding on to an expected October/November delivery for all those polo shirts. They'll come in batches.

Speaking of Monitaly any word on the ranch coats?

Not yet but...

It's OK. We don't sell fast fashion here. It's going to be 86 F this weekend in NYC so, when you think of it, it's rather normal not to sell flannel suits and overcoats just yet. Unfortunately our brains have been warped and formatted by retail giants constantly moving up the calendar, so we expect to see shearling in store in August - but we're independent so we can at least try to stay away from this nonsense when we can

I likewise think that is a great idea with the drops.

 

[King Calder]

@gdl203 lol it's 80 degrees in DC today so I'm in no rush to get it, it's just more that for some reason I had it in my head that they were expected to arrive this month.

The BBJ silver grass pants, woodgrain knit and that monitaly hooded jacket all look great.

Great idea on the new drops.

Meetings will be organized accordingly.

So will the site handle the inevitable massive load of people desperately hitting F5?

And regarding the ranch coat...

 

[gdl203]

Well, yes, it is cold in the arctic circle

I guess @Leaves was happy at least, but I’m a bit short on new overcoats!

 

[FrankCowperwood]

I sort of assumed 54 was blazing hot for that locale. Like the equivalent of 91 here on the shores of Lake Mich.

Hold shipping my Eidos macro-herringbone coat for a bit, will you Greg? (I'm killing myself here...)

Does seem like a good day though to order these, though:

@gdl203 @conceptual 4est I am down with organizing future drops Fridays at 1pm, good idea. Also for you or anyone else with experience, what is the leg opening on the Robert Geller Type 3 denim roughly particularly for size 34? Measurements on Ssense seem to suggest Type 2 jean sizing from my experience instead of Type 3 as shown here, which show a size 34 leg opening being around 6.75". My type 2s seem to measure that. Can anyone confirm if sizing shrunk this year??

My musings from a while back on why and whether menswear comes prematurely:
