Yah there’s some rule against that.
So, I feel uniquely qualified to address this.
You definitely do not need it. I question myself sometimes on the wisdom of two Travelers. But they are different enough, and I know if I ever lost one or stained it or had moth holes I would have an extra and there is no guaranty this jacket will be available in perpetuity.
So I have two. Navy and brown. I love wearing monotone outfits 90% of the time so I feel justified in it. However if I had gotten navy first I probably wouldn’t have gotten a brown. Someone had happened to return the navy and I snagged the re stock. I just like this coat so dammI think I could do two if they were different enough. Like a dark and a light. I don’t think the green is enough of a contrast though. I was originally looking for a camel/beige coat and wish that was available last year. Might still pull the trigger and then let go of my Green. Maybe then you’ll still get your commission!
So, what kind of commission do I get for beige Travelers sold?

What are the other two colors and size?Gonna grab the gray one. Technically my third one, but I got too fat for the other two, so I'm going to try and sell those.
I'm assuming sizing is pretty much the same? I guess I could also wait til the actual preorder opens up.

Who here has the Wythe Bedford Cords? The advice was to size down one, right? Or go TTS? They seem a size big based on the measurements. Anyone with some fit pics?

fitpics below. You can size down for a snug waist but you don't necessarily have to. what you see in the pics are a size 30, and the waist on them is just a little beyond 32" once they're stretched out. I would also buy 28 if they made a size 28, but at size 30, i have access to stuff in my pockets while seated, and I have a full range of motion, making them the easiest-wearing pants i own. and the fabic is cool.

Well, I think I'm getting gray so I can wear it as formal as needed, but sizing is still a question. Anyone 5'9" who wears a 42 in the KS Traveler can comment on the length? I'm 155-160, 42R w/ a 10" drop (broad chest, not crazy jacked). The SdC trench in L felt like an appropriate length for me and I could wear it comfortably over a sportcoat. Should I go TTS?
@gdl203 Slightly lighter weight but still that stiff and rigid fabric everyone loves, right? I returned the SdC because I was worried it would be too light for my one winter coat (and last week's ice storm in Houston would have confirmed that theory).
Others may have a different view, but I would consider sizing down. These are quite roomy. I’m 5’9”, 170 lbs, with a 41 inch chest (and a similarly significant drop), and I wear a 38. I can comfortably wear a thick sweater underneath. Sleeve length is near perfect and the coat length hits the knees. Good luck.
