They had a full size run in the cream navy polka dot work shirt and an XL in the s/s 2010 fatigue shorts left. Bows + Arrows just received their s/s 2011 shipment. I would definitely call.

Does anyone have any experience with this season's or last season's engineer jackets? I had one from 2007 or 2008 and it was really boxy. I'm wondering if they have changed up the fit at all.

Context has engineer jacket. It does look slimmer than the last few seasons. It actually looks like one of the best jackets from this collection.

I agree--just trying to see if anyone has tried it on.

That one at Context is awesome--it's what I've been looking at.

the extra VAT won't help UK interest in EG, infact last few seasons have struggled even before VAT hike.

decided I had to stop back into Context and pick up the cream w/ navy polka dot workshirt today....snagged the last large they had and glad I did. Fit is much better this season. Last seasons large workshirts were huge and billowy. This one still has a little of that EG anti-fit but is much trimmer, higher arm holes, and just an overall more proportioned fit, at least for me. I was closer to a medium last season but it was a little short and tight through the chest, this season I am definitely a large and got a great fit. I resisted trying on the engineer jacket because I was afraid I would buy it, great looking piece.

what is your height/weight? i was a large in last seasons workshirts but a medium in the 19th century shirts. i didnt mind the cut of last years workshirts as they were suppose to be worn a tad large.

could you also post the measurements of your polka dot large or are the measurements on the context site pretty accurate?

The Blue tab-collar floral shirt from a few pages back is $176 + tax at Nepenthes if anyone is wondering. They do process phone/e-mail purchases but they don't ship, so you'd have to get someone to proxy it. Looks like I have to find some place else to buy it :/

Measurements seem pretty accurate and I trust the guys at Context to do a better job then myself, though I don't have my tape handy to confirm that right now. I'm 6' 195lbs.
