Got the berry and green shorts, as everyone else said fabric is bonkers. The extra deep pockets are a really nice touch. Like many others I’m kicking myself for not getting the whole set. definitely not sleeping on it next time around. And just to reiterate a constant theme on this thread, I can not think of any other clothing brand where the quality of fabric, dying, construction Comes at such reasonable prices.
Thanks @NickPollica and team

Well just got my other 18east package in the mail just now. I forgot it had pockets, definitely didn't notice them at first with the pattern matching. That attention to detail is why I love this brand so much.

Totally forgot about the pockets too. Can’t wait for mine to get here. That’s TTS for you or size down?

I just got both of these sets in and am absolutely in thrall to what will now be my summer uniform. I went TTS on the shirt (took a L and I'm most often a L) and sized up on the shorts (to XL).

@NickPollica the fabric on the berry/green corded cotton really makes me interested in the safari jacket. My only reluctance is that I'm a slob with two black cats that shed, so would worry about staining. Any chance that jacket might ever appear dyed? The green and brown you used for the goreckis would look fantastic on that jacket... not that the undyed natural color doesn't already look fantastic.

Dye it yourself? @UrbanComposition may have a recommendation on how.
Yeah, I was actually considering the feasibility of doing that and looking at processes. It seems like the potential for doing this well varies greatly depending on fabric. I'd love recommendations from anyone with practical experience in doing this. Or perhaps I'll just risk it and go for the undyed jacket!

Go for the undyed and then if you happen to stain it, give it a new life and dye it.

One of my fav hoodies was an undyed 45r until my GF took for a ride under an airport cart. I ended up dying it an peach color and like it just as much if not more now!
