Yep it’s because we are in the middle of a much needed 3PL swap. NO MORE DOOR DASH OR GETTING SPEAKERS WHEN YOU ORDERED PANTS. We will have intl. back online as soon as it’s completed. In the meantime, if you are outside the US email us at [email protected] (not com) and we can sort you out easily. Sorry for the extra hassle. Lots of great things incoming imminently.

I don’t have the Plaza’s but I take the same size in all of the others. The Bennys are a really good shape, and at 6’1 the inseam is perfect.

Have abstained from complaining on this but my old Cello light wash pants have the worst pocket bags I've ever encountered! Left hand pocket split down the seam after a couple months - I patched it up and then the R hand pocket blew three weeks later. Just patched them up again this afternoon so I can wear them at a show and in the midst of putting my L hand into my pocket a (trimmed!) nail caught on the pocket bag and tore a small hole :censored:. I think I just need the bags replaced at this point but my tailors are telling me it'll cost a bunch. Makes me nervous to put my phone or wallet in the pockets (keys usually go in my jacket/bag) since I'm afraid they'll just fall out if they tear next time I reach in. Hasn't happened w/ any other 18E pants.

it’s the wash on that style - it did something to the pocket bags that made them really weak. We’ve addressed it for future iterations but in the meantime please shoot customer service an email - we can have our india team put new ones in for you.

Is that last summer's blue striped chestnut previewed in the mainstay collection? I've been looking out for a re-release on that for a while!

same fabric, new model. That’s my favorite shirt fabric we’ve run and I’ve worn religiously since it came out.

This has happened to all 3 of my goreckis too with the hand pockets being very thin. This has caused large holes along the pocket seam where my wallet and phone can just fall down my leg.

I think this may have been addressed in the latest gorecki releases though?

it’s been addressed with all the pants from the last time it was called out. The issue here is the denim wash breaking down the thicker pocket bag.
