Ah OK. How much did you take off would you say? I may have to do the same. Were yours longer than necessary then I guess?

Just got the same done on my cottle jeans as well actually.
Probably a good 6 inches, I just ordered them off of the website. Though I special ordered the new double dyed jeans and asked him to just make me a 28 inch inseam right off the bat. Just depends on how you purchase.

Good to know. I purchased direct but did custom orders of all my custom in terms of waist size so think that the same was added to balance out the length. Mine were all stock lengths so yeah probably need taking up. Shame as I lost the fades on the hems of the denim but I guess I have spare fabric now for repairs.

Are the double dyed ones the Persimmon ones? Has he got them listed anywhere?

How’s the sizing on the Zen shirts? I’m a size 3 in the Cottle hoodie and town jacket. Wondering if I should keep the same size 3.

Im curious what the weight of these pieces is like. Is it a heavier, canvas/denim feel or more flowy and linen-like?
Ordered some light indigo pants and type 2 about 3 weeks ago - the anticipation is killing me but know it will be worth the wait. Already shopping for more

not sure about the type 2 but the jacket i sold was medium weight i would say and doesnt feel like canvas or denim but also not flowy. I would say it was the more like coarse linen that was fairly structured and rigid

the light indigo pants are certainly flowy and summery!

'preciate it, was specifically curious about the town jacket. Sounds like it could fill the four-season-chore-coat-layer sized hole in my wardrobe. (And make a four-season-chore-coat-layer sized hole in my bank account.)
I imagine some of that structure and rigidity softens up nicely after a few washes/wears

I'm trying to order some jeans from Cottle but can't seem to be able to make contact with them (I'm in the US). Their email contact form on their website doesn't seem to be working currently. Does anyone have recs on how to contact them? Also if I'm ordering multiple pairs and returning the ones that don't fit, how is their return process? These jeans are expensive enough to make me need to confirm this stuff.

Just received my Life Botanical Dye Hoodie in Hinoki, Size 2 and unfortunately thinking I want to size up. Anybody interested in the brand new size 2? Would sell for the $750 i paid, and you'd skip the wait of ordering direct.

Anyone have experience with their Type 2 jacket's sizing? Was interested in picking up the one washed bengara but I wanted to know how it fit.
Sorry late response but...
Im 5' 10" and ~160lb. I was able to try both a 3 and 4. The 3 was well fitted if it was my only layer, but since I knew I wanted to layer it with hoodies/sweaters, and since i prefer a slightly oversized fit, I went with the 4. Both are pretty relaxed overall, boxy/wide in the chest, wide shoulder that will hang a bit past the joint, but somewhat cropped in length.
