Soooo. You will be offering a pre order on this?
Yes - waiting for sizing grids so I can put up preorders

Likely on these styles:

Yoke is pretty cool in the way it connects with the sleeve seam/piping

View attachment 1885775

This looks great. I like the Clint style, but the knitted cuffs and hem didn't do it for me (although I think knitted works awesomely for the Valstarino).

Yes we also noticed that the basted X there was a bit more dense than a usual baste stitching. I don't know why - maybe because the fabric is heavy... You can take it out with a seam ripper or a razor blade (old Italian tailor style)

Well, maybe I'll try removing the thread DYI, if I get enough liquid courage in me...

Bahh! Of course the Camel coat…there goes my no clothes February.
If it helps, I can guarantee that you won't be receiving that coat by February

Whoa. That grey gradient plaid number (is that what we're calling it? what do we call that?) looks pretty awesome.

Any Harris Tweed options this year?

Loving that black nappa shearling! That’s at the top of my list.

No Harris Tweed - there is an Italian wool houndstooth that I didn't particularly love

Great looking options, and right at a time when I was thinking it's finally time to get a Valstar.

Are there any other colorways you're planning to pick up on that first shearling coat?

I don't think we will stock any of the shearling options in the store. All pre-orders
