Greg - do you wear 58 in the kimber polos?

You didn't ask me...but I wear a 52/42 in most tops and I needed a XXL for the Ripley to look right. It looks best if you are on the taller and slimmer side of life. Great knit - everyone notices that you are wearing something nicer than 99% of the people out there. I have it in two colorways.

Camoshita suit, Niche shirt, Kimber loafers. Taken at Brooks Brothers because my waist is 3” thinner than the last time I wore this suit and had to buy an emergency belt lol

How do you guys find the inseam on the LEJ pat-a-cake trousers? They seem to measure a little short, but you don’t want them pooling too much with the cinch.

I’m 5’10 and I’m fine with them. I think I might end up just cutting off the cinch tbh. I’ve had the pyjama pants and pat a cake which both have the cinch but I rarely use them.

So great huh? I love my cream cotton pair. Fully plan on picking up 1 or two more pairs for fall.

My personal experience with the Kimber polos is that brand new, two sizes up looks like I bought a size too big and one size up looks great. Thing is when you wash and air dry, the knit gets super tight and it essentially shrinks so that one x now basically doesn’t fit (not sure if I’d say it shrinks one whole size). You have to stretch the shirt like crazy in all directions while damp and dry flat to get it back close to it’s original size. I imagine if you get two sizes up, after wash you don’t have to do much stretching and you can maintain the louche vibe like our man easily amused. Debating which route to take if I get the sunset brown one.
