How is the sizing on the single pleats? Measurements on the site seem to run TTS or slightly small (medium has 32" waist) but I've seen listings with the waist being 2" larger.

I'm a medium in the shelter shorts and pajama pants but had to get a large in the patchwork and booth shorts. Thanks in advance.

I need a belt for pretty much all my 18 East pants at this point.

@NickPollica are the fall double knees gonna be significantly thicker/warmer than the ones released? What colors will it come in? Debating doubling up on them now or waiting.

I think he mentioned in the past they were seasonally appropriate, so it seems they will be thicker. From memory of the teaser pic the fall 2knees were two toned, as in the knee patches were different colors than the body. Not sure if they’re all like that though.

Do we know exactly what's dropping tomorrow? In particular, I'm wondering about the pants shown if they're being released together with their tops or not.

I would assume so, as they likely came from the same maker, but there’s no guarantee

I finally had some time to snap some detailed pics of my 3S x 18E Kantha Liner. I decided to get the Black Indigo (I personally like the contrast collar, chest pocket, and pocket slits). I feel the Black Indigo color is definitely the slept on piece of the two.

The Kantha pattern has so many little details when you look at it up-close. The overdye also has tons of character and different hues, which I'm sure will get better with wear. The liner is pretty thick with a very soft hand and has quite of bit of heft to it, which is a plus. Definitely a super cozy piece. Despite the weight, I do feel as though this liner is quite breathable, but at the same time can retain heat during colder months. Trust me when I say that photos of these liners do not do them justice at all. I might go crazy and pull the trigger on the Indigo color this Friday as well (if permitted). Can't wait to start wearing this once the weather gets a bit cooler.

Mine has loosened a bit, I think. When I first put it on it looked like I had forgotten to take the hanger out but now the shoulders look more natural to me.
