18 East

[NickPollica]

Goddamn. I hope these will have a lot more L/XLs. Will the black/ecru shorts and shirt arrive in time for the summer?

So these are all slated for June....but they'll likely be July.

I'm 5'8" with a 40" chest and have similar issues across several brands...sleeves tend to be pretty long for me haha. I love the 18 East safari jacket I got but I will definitely only be wearing it with rolled up sleeves.

Same issue.. 5'8" with wider shoulders than most and length has always been an issue. Irregular Boyzzzzz stand up! Was able to snag the patchwork sahasika and the sleeves look really good rolled up though.

And wow, super excited to see the double knees and pockets sahasika.

Those are ******* dope, and that Utility Sashaika is going to be so fantastic to miss out on because my boss made me work during the drop.

Wow. Super excited to see the militaryish 18 East pieces. Those double knee pants remind me of the vtg danish parachute pants over at Broadway & Sons

Speaking of cool pants in green that sold out in my size...

 

[NickPollica]

doubling the quantities on double knees.

people need to chill a little bit with the unsolicited business advice on the thread with zero visibility into the logistics, finances and everything else that is going on in the background. it's become a regular occurrence every time there's a drop and people miss out on things. the fact that the owner has the patience to sit here and actually address a lot of the concerns is crazy in of itself but the fact that the same questions keep popping up and the start of comments basically insinuating that "if things don't change you're going to lose my business" is even crazier. it's incredibly selfish for people to want a business that's essentially still a start up to carry inventory as if it's a big box retailer, invest money / time in trying to investigate if there are shopify bots (there aren't) and try to predict the future on sizes / order quantity for specific styles when there's a multi month design and production process is absolutely absurd. let's be a little more self aware. the owner has already given us insight into changes being made going forward to mitigate some of the current concerns and that should be more than enough.

wholeheartedly agree, since that's what a lot of it was kinda coming off as.

to actually touch on this, I also think it's amazing that the 18E community has actually been fantastic when it comes to selling/trading pieces they don't want.

outside of a couple of herbs and oddballs, everyone tends to be fair and tries to sell at retail/a slight mark up. we never have to worry about people selling for quadruple retail because highsnobiety told them travis Scott and a$ap rocky are going to be wearing this for the next 10 years and "YoU sHoULd cOp To FLiP". the people here just really like the clothes, and imo that's what really sets this brand apart from almost every other brand right now currently.

i get that people are super passionate about the brand and get bummed when they don't get the stuff they want, but that's the nature of the game lol.

I gotta say it's really awesome you're keeping us in the loop with this and showing design drawings. Really appreciate it. Are the black/ecru pants/shorts going to be like the blue patchworks? Like is that going to be patchwork stitching, or a dyed pattern on the fabric?

 

[aladdnzane]

That sahasika.......?

Same model as the indigo ones. We added this in late after the blue ones blew out.

That's so good. You just made my day/summer. These look like they may be even better, if that's even possible.

lots of black in the pipeline. But mixed with color in a cool way. The stuff I just posted is only a little bit of that group and there actually a bunch of color there.
