EG did not make a Drivers Jacket this season, right? Really miss the one I purchased in SS13... I'd probably pick up EG's tropical wool version if it got released again.

No driver jacket this season. Lafayette jacket in tropical wool kinda fills a similar niche?

The Bureau added some sweet EG Workaday items: Ordered a green chambray shirt and chambray fatigue pants. I'll be Mr chambray this summer.

I'd size down one. I got a small and I typically need a size medium for jackets. Medium would have been huge on me since it's a regular/roomy type jacket.

Small:
p2p: 21"
s2s: 18"
sleeve: 24"
length: 27.5"

So size normally for a layering piece, would you say?

I got the bird turquoise classic shirt and the print is nice but does the straight hem look weird when worn with a jacket? Also I think I should've sized down.

Would look odd any tighter - it's a summer shirt

No way on sizing down. Looks great as is.

Kind of want one myself now... Which store did you pick yours up from?

Agree - I like this pattern as well. Especially nice on the shorts. Knight rocked them extremely well but they are the Gurkhas and that fit is too challenging on my thighs ...

Only thing on the shirt that I would want to consider is shortening the sleeves a bit and would likely wear it tucked-in in the shorts fit pic, maybe with a colorful belt thrown in? I think it looks good though with the olive Bedford.

This is an awesome fit. Like the gray theme here, am a fan of the patchwork pattern this season and will steal this look shamelessly. I think it will look even better with the blue Foulard tie and pork hat thrown in for some color pop.
