Wow, that looks great. Is the liner the same color in the Memory?

My coat is the Merino and it is different - that said we have good photos of the navy Memory made up exactly as it will be delivered - you can see the liner vs coat shell there :

Anyone have any advice for how to care for a G. Inglese Shirt? Feel like sending it to the dry cleaners would shorten its lifetime and kill the fabric.

I have one of those top loading wave technology washers (no agitator) and I wash with cold water in garment bags on the gentle cycle. Hang dry. I have never had an issue.

You can always just have them laundered (not dry cleaned) and pressed at the cleaners.

Now going to get this one - I wanted something I could wear with black shoes and the beige was a killer originally - but this is SOLID - how do I order?


Order links are up in Kyle's original post 

Deadline for pre-orders is Tuesday 2/10 end of day.  The pre-order pages will be inactive after that, and we will collate orders and get the ball rolling.

Delivery, obviously, is September-October 2015


How do I specify the size there?? Wasn't an option in the drop down for jade green...

Wear for at least two years before washing. Then wear it while swimming in the ocean for no less than 23 minutes, rub with sand, swim for another 14 minutes in a highly chlorinated swimming pool, rinse with cold purified water, sprinkle with cream of tartar to help set the whiskering, then dry inside-out in the light of the 3:15 - 5:00 pm sun. :)

More seriously, I think there are probably several threads on this forum about caring for dress shirts. It basically comes down to the amount of time you're willing to invest. You obviously have the most control over the process if you wash and iron the shirt yourself. Some people don't consider this a big hassle, and even enjoy the process. I'd like to be one of those people, but really am not. I err a bit more on the side of convenience.

A middle ground would be to find a laundry/dry cleaner you trust near you, and discuss with them any special instructions that might be included in your "standard" order (most such services have a customer profile that notes special requests, preferences, etc.) to give extra gentle treatment to your shirts.

put it in the gift message

kept leaning towards going conservative, but already have 2 black overcoats, black CG parka and a charcoal krane jonas. kinda leaned towards camel but have a slim camel gloverall. almost went navy, but have a rrl melton peacoat and unis varsity. went full circle debating what items to get rid of and/or decide what items i dont really wear

ultimately decided to just take a plunge and fill a void i didnt think i had lol ... ordered jade and completely stoked :slayer:

Trying to figure out my size in Rota trousers.
I wear a size 34 in Epaulet Walts.
Measurements are:
Waist - 35"
Thigh - 12.5"

What size would I be in Rota? 48 or 50?
