Here is a that green hopsack Formosa. And, it was still there at 5pm yesterday as the show was wrapping up but I doubt it will last long. The heathered mossy green color is very attractive. I think it looks especially nice with this muted pumpkin colored scarf.

Also, am I the only one who thinks that was a dope suit?

This suit is so 60's Rock N Roll. You can just imagine Charlie Watts wearing this with a turtle neck. Very cool suit.

I'll be in NYC for the next NMWA trunk show as part of The Proper Kit on Sat November 7th so I have the luxury of being able to digest everything I saw yesterday and add a few more things in two weeks. I did order several custom shirts and a pair of the Rota trousers with the single pleat and it's" rakish extended waistband".

Very impressed by the construction and handwork on the G. Inglese shirts. At these prices they are an exceptional value.

Curious, what changes were made to the Eidos fit?

Greg can correct, but I believe just the button stance was moved up just a little on the bottom 2 buttons. Had much better balance then the one piece I tried from last year. I returned for exactly this reason - button was just too low relative to the skirt. Made it kind of "top heavy" I thought. New model was spot on I thought.

Can't make it to the trunk show. Sad panda.

Would love some help picking between these two Eidos sport coats. This will be my first Eidos, so looking forward to it. Looking for versatility as my primary concern. I primarily wear sport coats to work with dress pants, no tie. Look forward to thoughts.

Option 1 - Brown & grey Herringbone

Option 2 - Blue & Brown shepherd check

 

[Murlsquirl]

Option 1

 

[heldentenor]

Option 1

Agreed, unless you are a 48. In that case, anything but option 1.

Seriously though, the herringbone is about as versatile as you can get outside of solid navy.

Shoot, I didn't realize this was two days. I coulda made it yesterday!

Thanks for the pics though, Gus.

Uh, both. Ok, fine. Option 1 is definitely the more versatile of the two. It's the grey version of a navy odd jacket.

Buy it now or brace yourself for disappointment.

Thanks.....you're safe as I'm not a 48!

Can anyone who has ordered a Formosa [Short] comment on the difference in the measurements? I'm trying to decide between the 50R and 50S (which, I assume will need to be ordered MTO)..

 

[ComfortablyDumb]

Buy it now or brace yourself for disappointment.

Exactly what I did with that same jacket.
