@conceptual 4est is it possible to order the cord fabrics in the shacket? Or strictly the mole skins?

I personally wish the shacket came with a slightly heavier or chunkier button than a standard shirting button. But that’s minor since it’s such an awesome piece overall

Same feedback from me on the buttons, didn't keep me from ordering the Ochre shacket though

Yup, you can get the shacket in the corduroys! Only the double-denim is off limits. I hear you on the buttons, but I really do think it works with the overall style and keeping things a little more refined. Maybe something to revisit in the future if we do it in different fabrics like tweeds or something?

black cord or sage green overshirt will be a tough call for me

The Document overshirt in XL I purchased during the Black Friday sale is on its way back to NMWA HQ - the sleeves were just a bit too long so I'm sizing down to L. I also sent an email regarding this size exchange.

We have beautiful scarves and accessories for the ladies in your lives BTW

Over the years, I've bought a few NMWA accessories "for my wife" that I want. She thinks I'm being nice buying her something. I get something I want. NMWA gets a sale. Everybody wins! I recently did this with a Scott & Charters hat and this Doppiaa scarf :

A woman at work just asked where to buy the scarf. So, if you're looking for an accessory to steal from a lady in your life, the Doppiaa scarf is a solid option.

@gdl203/@conceptual 4est/anyone else who wants to chime in:

Bit of an unusual question here. Is it possible to shrink a turtleneck's collar in a targeted way? I got one of the Chamula turtlenecks last week in an XL, and while it fits appropriately elsewhere, the neck is really large - it looks more like a cowl neck than a turtleneck. Comparing it to the recent lookbook and the product photos on the mannequin, I'm guessing this isn't the intended look, nor is it one I particularly care for. I like the sweater otherwise, so I'm wondering if anyone has had success tightening up a turtleneck collar. A cursory Google search reveals that some suggest wetting down only the neck and then either throwing the sweater in the dryer on high or using a hot blow dryer, but I'm suspect.

Edit: attached a photo. Upon looking at it, calling it a cowl neck is definitely an exaggeration. Still, I’d prefer it to fit more snugly, so my previous question stands.

You are thinking about this all wrong.

All you really need to do is work on enlarging your neck.
