Mike -- Couple questions on the Lightweight wool MTO.

1) Is the grey (8276) the same fabric as the grey hopsack walt?
2) Which do you think makes up better--wheat hopsack (8277) or tobacco (8281)? Looking for warm weather dress pant with or w/o sport coat.

Irish -

1) Yes, I believe so.

2) I struggled with the same but ended up going with the wheat hopsack. I'll probably end up with both to be honest.

I might have misread earlier, but are the overdyed Doyles supposed to hit this week?


They'll be either next week or the following week - coming with OD Wilshire jeans too. Without the SM store, our product launch cycle got a little bit slower (that UPS Ground to NYC is a killer) but we've got plenty of good things on deck. Next week will be the Kamigata and a bunch of new EPNY shirts.

I feel like the Doyle is more flexible.


Yup, I'd agree - the Doyle basically matches everything.

What price is the Noragi going to be retailing at?


$175 for the current two denims. It will go up/down depending what fabric we use in the future.

Can't say Thank You enough to SVB and Mike for helping out-of-towners to get some great gear from the SM shop.

Here are the newly arrived Carmina Brown Lizard Double Monks.

I also got a Navy Hopsack Cane Sport Coat that is a perfect match for my Navy Hopsack pants. Now it gives me a suit option.

Thanks Again!

Also pictured are Carmel Duck Rivets. The shoes were just tired on and I normally wouldn't wear them with this outfit (at least not with these socks).

Thank you sir! Sounds like a great haul, and those monks look great.

Yup, that's the same as our existing Grey Hopsack Walt And both of those fabrics will make up into exceptional trousers. Personally, I'd probably go for Tobacco. It's a great shade of brown and IMO will be a bit more eye-catching. I'd love that with something like the navy Loro Piana Vittorio jacket.

Question on the Driggs trousers, with their 33" inseam will there be enough to roll/peg them? Note - I normally take a 32" inseam.

I'm pretty certain there will never come a time that seeing a bulldog doesn't make me smile.

Nice pic MC! I agree with tricky, your bulldog makes me smile all the time man!

I think we should have a contest with some EP merchandise and our dogs. I'll post some of my girls (got two pups).

How quickly was the Olive Doyle sold out in size 36? By the time I finally saw the email around noon it was already gone.

Mike, can you confirm the measurements of the EPLA shirts?

You stated that they are slimmer than the EPNY although the chest measurements suggest otherwise. ie the chest for small is 19.25 in EPLA and 19 in EPNY.

A small EPNY is a bit snug so sizing up to a medium looks to be a big step with a 20.25 chest.

Mike,

I am thinking about picking up the Vass Theresianer captoe in the cognac scotchgrain; however, I am not familiar with their lasts. Alden Barrie 8 & Carmina Rain 7.5 = 41.5 in New Peter?
