Gah, their stores are depressing. Edit: Are those 501's based off the 1947 version? I can't make out all of the text.

MAC received another shipment on Friday:

- M.I.L. Pants in Navy Wool Serge. It has slash pockets, buttoned rear pockets, and suspender buttons inside the waist, as well as a coin pocket in the waist.
- Beacon Pants in gray wool flannel (out of 32)
- Grey Buttoned Henley and White Buttoned Henley (same neck silhouette as the SS08 henleys and thermal material)
- Plaid Flannel Ties

Hopefully we'll see more knitwear this week from Gary and others.

I'm a notoriously shy lurker on this board but had to register after drinking the Engineered Garments Kool-Aid ... I'm ready to buy. I've found a few items here in LA. I wonder, however where I might find the Norwegian pants, a red plaid square and/or a red plaid bowtie.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks.

I can't believe they used the 507, it's such an awful cut. Bleh.

Anyone know where I might be able to phone order the following item in the US?

Engineered Garments Beacon grey pants, size 32

I was going to order from Hejfina, but they're out of my size.

Thanks in advance

IIRC, the z indicates a zipper. The original 501 1947's had a button fly.

I'd guess that they're not STF.
