more props to Mike and Adele for their awesome service. I bought the Gant bonded cotton parka from them because I've been without a rain coat for years. It's really an amazing jacket. Their recommendation was spot on for me. Did anyone else pick this piece up?

Gonna get a pair of the chinos soon.

Hey guys,

Sorry for being MIA the past few days. Here's the status on everything going down:

EP's RIVET CHINO'S
Thanks again to everyone who ordered! And thanks to StanleyVanBuren for posting pics. It's official - the Rivet Chino is the best-selling Epaulet item that we've ever made. I've still got most sizes in the two colors, but we're getting down to single digits on some. It's been a huge hit both in the store and online, and the fit has worked beautifully for a whole range of physiques. We're definitely going to expand production of these.

I've got two special-edition chino's planned for the end of June. Once my fabric buy is confirmed, then I'll post up the details, and we'll soon put one up for preorder. Both fabrications are awesome, and have really interesting back stories.

For the exisiting colors, we'll definitely keep British Khaki in stock for the near future. I may be able to get more Navy soon, but it's also possible that I won't be able to restock that until early Fall. I'll let you know when I do.

EP's CHAMBRAY SHIRTS

Thanks for all the feedback guys! We're already planning a second edition of these, and I really appreciate your input. I'm thinking of doing some sketches for new shapes and posting them up. Maybe we can even do a poll. I've been dreaming of doing a Chambray western shirt along these lines:

MODIFIED WALT SHORTS
Just arrived today! We've got Italian Gab, Tropical Wool, Seersucker, and two awesome Indian Madras prints. Same quality of our Walt trouser with a slim leg and a 9" inseam. These are about as close to perfect as shorts get. We'll get them online by Thursday.

FRENCH CUFF & BARREL CUFF SHIRTS

We actually have a few spread collar, barrel cuff dress shirts in stock now. I'll also get them up this week. A French cuff is in production with a great blue/pink Tattersall (with no pocket). We don't have a white shirt planned at the moment, but we're definitely considering it.

CASUAL SHIRTS

I've got three new styles going online in the next few days. A banging long sleeve Madras, a long sleeve maroon Gingham, and a short sleeve Sunwashed Chambray.

Thanks for your order - and glad to hear that you like the Gant coat! I've been wearing the hell out of that this season.

Possible to get some quick snaps of the shorts tonight? They need not be anything fancy. I just need something to tide me over to Thursday because of this heatwave we're dealing with.

Did anyone else miss the folded-under shorts legs and think they were daisy dukes.

Hit 'cha back

Oh, and regarding the shorts - everything except for the Tropical Wool is fully machine washable. Like the cotton pants, they're sized up a tiny bit to allow for the nominal waist shrinkage.

I've come to a conclusion. For the price, Epaulet's stuff really can't be beat. Seriously.

Maroon gingham!! I wonder how maroon it'll be... There was that maroon BoO collab that happened a little while back that I couldn't go for because it was too much on the pink side and not enough on the eggplant side.

I loves me some interesting gingham/checks, though...

Mike, what kind of fabric are we looking at for the maroon gingham? Is it a twill like the multicolor gingham?
