Currently planning to be in town and to stop by at some point on Saturday afternoon.

Question on the Inis Meain color cards.

I want to place an order for a solid navy. It looks like either the Ardee or, possibly, the Navan may be what I need. Can anyone offer insight?

Ardee is navy (seen made-up on the pub jacket in the big post). Navan is black as far as I can tell.

Gotcha.

Also leads me to: who's up (out-of-towners or not) for grabbing a bite after the trunk show on Saturday night? For this one, please RSVP in this thread so we can make appropriate reservations.

Really wish I could make the trunk show and join you guys for dinner ... hopefully next time.

In case anyone was wondering about sizing, I just realized that my Inis Meain linen crewneck is actually a size medium, rather than a small. I normally take a small in Inis Meain, and wear a 36R coat.

And FWIW, I bought the crewneck in "lisheen." I think it's a good summer color, being a slightly lighter shade than navy and all.

Count me in.

Will be visiting New York this week and this fits perfectly to the schedule..

Is that color true to life ? It looks like a grayed blue -- which I like. Or by bought do you mean that was your new MTO order?

I don't know if it's true to real life, as I don't actually own the sweater (or have swatches in front of me). I assume either Kyle or Greg could answer that. I'm hoping for something just an itsy bitsy lighter in shade, like what's pictured in the swatch cards under "lisheen," but again - don't have anything in front of me.

FWIW, the sweater right behind that grey blue one - that sort of cream color - is reasonably true to real life in my current IM linen sweater. I think IM calls that "mist."

Finally bought something from NMWA - the La Portegna 'Fat Carter' briefcase:



Very excited and can't wait for it to get here!

Very pretty. Been looking for it but never seen it online? Where is it?

 

[Gerry Nelson]

I don't know if it's online yet but they've definitely received their shipment. If it's not up on the site, it will be soon.

I took the photos off the La Portegna website.

Thanks for your feedback DW. That help a lot.

I'm planning on ordering IM Pub Jacket and linen crewneck. I ussually wear SC in 39R. I guess size L is what I need.
