Pulled the trigger on the Bedford Khaki cotton version. Also got a navy reversible vest [paisley one side // large white polka dot the other] Hula Girl 19th BD, and the Truman vest indigo denim. Super excited and will be taking fit pics once i receive it. I also got me some Needles pieces which is a first for me. I got the Floral string pant in brown and a plaid cardigan.

Does anyone have experience wearing Needles before. I apologise if i ask a question relative to a different label on this EG thread. The ReBuild pieces look unreal.

Thanks in advance...

^ I have that shirt and it's great. I bought the vertical striped version as well from thebureue since the fit of the tab collar shirt is near perfect for me this season. So much better than last S/S, which was too small.


Yeah, I'm with you. The Tab Collar & Popover are the only EG shirts I generally buy.

I've handled the rebuild jacket at Nepenthes. It was absolutely excellent except that my style sucks too hard to own a jacket like that.

Nice! I think anyone can wear it my friend, no one's style sucks, i would bit the bullet and wear it :) Im hesitating bc i got the Field Jacket from EG also in Olive and it would be an impulse i hate to say. But i saw this on the Bureau's webstore and its just phenomenal.

Tempted to buy the railroader in Chambray, anyone seen it in person?

Just an FYI about the Railroader -- my denim one from FW12 flares out at the bottom (seems to be a common trend inEG outerwear pieces).

Overall, it's a great piece. I'd get the Navy Twill from SS13, but my wallet is severely lacking.

Word to the wise on the Rebuild pieces--every single one is different, pockets in all sorts of crazy places and ****. Patchwork Baker is ******* bomb. Guess those pics settle that it is indeed a Baker, not a Bedford.

And yes I have to size up.small size would be too short for me!

I think Needles stuff should mix in well with your EG stuff, interested the floral string pants myself, would be interested to see a fit.

I have a shawl collar Rebuild jacket that I got from another SF member a while back and absolutely love it. All the pockets and wild details are really cool. Mine seems to fit me perfectly which I was rather surprised about considering its quite an unusual jacket and each piece is unique - maybe I just got lucky! Its quite voluminous (in the sleeves for example) and so requires pants that have some volume for balance, a lot of my pants are a bit too slim. I'm guessing EG workaday fatigues would work really well.






The front left side of mine was apparently a trouser liner (to be worn over a uniform) in a former life and has some random instructions like LUBRICATE ZIPPER on the inside
