I've joined the plum duck Rivets club. Also shown are caramel calf Alt Wiens in special order 10.5UK wide, which is really a nice fit for me. Big thanks to Matt and Mike for everything.

I recently purchased the walt medium grey super 120 trouser and they look a bit dark to me. Is this level of grey pretty standard for medium grey, or are these particular trousers a bit on the darker side? I'm wondering if I should be looking for more of a light grey. Any thoughts?

here's a photo of me wearing my medium grey super 120 suit. I think it's pretty medium, but decide for yourself:

I have a question about adding length to the MTO shirts... will it add to the side lengths, i.e., the gussets, as well as the front back tails, or just the tails? I hope it's from the gussets.

I'm curious, how long did the special order shoes take to arrive?

Great outfit, Rob.

Who took the pics for you?


Not everyone's cup of tea, but I wore the chinos with some old school Jordans.

Four months from invoice to delivery for these. Mike put in a restock order and I piggybacked a few 10.5 wide special orders on that. At that time it was half down and half on delivery, like the MTOS.

 Jake Shuttlesworth swag.

I was si pumped for them. Wanted them when they dropped in the 7th grade but $150 was too much for kicks back then. And you know I got the restocked 11s last week too! Haha.

Haha. I know you did. $150 was too much for kicks back then, but I saved my pennies and swooped up a pair in the red/black colorway. I went to catholic school, and our uniforms consisted of navy pants/shorts and a light blue (think powder blue) polo shirt. When you pay $150 for shoes, though, you don't care if they match your uniform or not. You're wearing them regardless.

My limit was $100 per pair, and I can only get 1 pair per semester. I had to settle for the first Jumpman Pros, the only Eddie Jones wore. My first Js were the XVs in the 9th grade.

I'm kinda wanting the Grape 5s, but we will see. Kids line up/hype up everything now :( I also want those Suns Foams, but I missed the boat and I'm not paying over retail for sneakers.


Today...the madras trousers:
