Can someone give me an idea of how slim the Rivet Chinos are? I'm not hoping for a skinny fit, but I am incredibly skinny and hate baggy pants. I've been hoping to go the MTO route, but am worried that even in my size, they'll be too loose. I've tried J.Crew 484, gap, dockers, club Monaco. A few fit well, but were too long and not worth the tailoring cost for such cheap pants.

Between the model pics on the site and the fact you can return them as an SF member why not just try a pair?

How skinny is incredible? Skinnier than Stanley? His pics show how they fit on very slim build and they look great. I don't think he gets them tapered below the knee, but maybe...

nope no taper for me

my jeans have like a 6.4" leg opening and I think the rivet chinos in size 29 have like 7" or something. they look fine that way though; wouldn't want them as slim as my denim.

Weren't there Walt special orders with fabrics such as UK Donegal Tweed Salt & Pepper? I now see only Rudy special orders now, but I want the slimmer fit of the Walt. Am I imagining things or was there a Walt special order under MTO that has disappeared?

Perfect.. Thanks for the help guys. Stanley, I'm curious what inseam you have on your rivets? I figure we're similar heights

They're slim, but definitely not skinny or tight. SVB is a pretty good gauge of the fit on a small dude. Most guys size up in the waist from Club Monaco/J Crew and the like, but find the fit to be killer.

And like oboy said, we offer a 14 return with refund policy to SF guys.

Feel free to drop me a line if you need sizing advise!

We don't do an MTO item for the Walt, but can special order a pair if we are out of your size. We'll be restocking the Donegal trousers in the next delivery, I believe. However, that will be the last of the fabric that matches the Weller we made. If you're not looking to complete the suit, we have another, VERY similar S&P Donegal we can cut.


Just pulled an impulse buy on the Carmina Emerson boots...


HELL YEAH! This boot was partly my baby/dream boot, so I'm glad you guys dig it!

We'll restock in the near future. And maybe have something in the pipeline that will also fit the bill...


Kudu looks absolutely sick!


Thanks, dude!

I feel like that boot has your name written all over it!

TIL that the Alden Kudu is not in fact, Kudu leather. Fascinating!

How does real Kudu fare in snow, salted ice conditions?

Picked up the Scotch grain Alt Wiens!

Not for this season, I don't believe that we have any on order. We've got more Carmina boots coming next month, and a Vass boot arriving in about a week or so.
Any chance you can share details on the Carmina boots coming in? Re-stocks or new models?
