Got a lil drop from Merz as well. You know you can count on us to bring a new 3-pack of 1950s crewnecks with seasonal colors, and this time around it's Pacific (blue) and Sierra (rust).

Great shape, great colors, organic cotton and loopwheeled construction. Perfect to add to any rotation - you know the drill.

We also have white 215 crewnecks. I try not to abuse words like classic but there is no way around it - this is like THE loopwheeled crewneck white tee. Merz has the machines and they have the knowledge and they just do the thing.

Lastly, we've brought back the popular white and navy cotton bucket hats and added a seasonal green. Always some good inspiration for these in the No Man IG it seems.

Every summer we get some goodies from Marcel over at X of Pentacles, and every summer it's a highlight. He's got a great taste level and eye, and the fact that everything is hand tailored in Italy never hurts.

So his version of easy pants he calls Lounge Pants and you can see a few great details - self fabric drawstring, sharp pleats with the elastic moved to the side only for a cleaner front, and darts on the rear to help with the roomy-upper-into-tapered-leg shape. And don't get me started on the wool solaro! We're no strangers to this fabric but it doesn't make it any less special, and it's always a treat to see how the light hits it and how it changes in motion.

Next we have what Marcel calls a Resort Set, all in washable (!) wool (!!) seersucker (!!!). We do stock a lot of cool stuff, but this is like really cool. The vibes are very real. Hand tailored in Napoli of course, but what blows my mind is that he also recommends just going for it and wearing this as swimwear - the construction allows it, and the material is naturally quick drying. I dig it.

Wear both together, undo a few extra buttons on the shirt, chill poolside. The dream is very real.

The X of P stuff is so so nice. I don't know if I have the... fortitude... to jump in the pool in those super luxe Tallia di Delfino tropical wool seersucker shorts, but I do admire Marcel's.

Anyone have reqs on sizing that LEJ linen plage jacket? I’m 5’8 140 so I’m guessing S but…I tend to wear a M in most things so maybe a M?

I'd go with M if that's your usual. Definitely not something I'd size down on

Okay, really love the Merz b. Schwanen bucket hats. The right amount of ease IMO.
I have two in size medium and they fit well on my head. Should I take 0 or 1 for Sublime in the paper and paper/raffia hat?

For the X of Pentacles lounge trouser is the virtusize front rise measurement of 9.1” right with the two inch waistband? Isn’t it supposed to be high rise? Also any chance to get the hem measurement?

Any way y'all could take a quick shot of the XOP resort set?
