Mike,

Really like the blue madras shirt and the point collar white oxford. Are you getting any new shirts that will be online within the next week?
Thanks

Kind of in the same boat as you slack tide, except I already had a bunch of grown up clothing that I'm trying to replace so that it looks like a grown up bought his grown up clothing.... anyway.

This is what Mike told me about the Super 120's:

basic dress trouser with a year-round weight and a RIDICULOUSLY nice hand
I would have bought a pair already, except I'm looking for lighter colors. If Mike puts out some tropical wool in mid- to light-grey again, I'll snag those.

Appreciate the info..

I too actually have a closet full of grown up clothes (tho retired and gathering dust for several years) that I tried to pull off the bench. Just spent a boat load at the tailor trying to fix 5 slacks and two suits. But it didn't do it and I decided I can't wear any of it. So starting from scratch. Have a post on the MC forum general questions asking about suits too

Maybe I'm not grasping how wide that is - for some reason I feel like a parka should fit on the baggier side, no? I'm in a ******* parka conundrum. Picked up a WWM one at Mortar last week but it's going back tomorrow, not substantial enough, and I need a louder color than navy.

Looks fine from the pics. I have the same shirt...it does shrink quite a bit but that worked in my favor and now fits perfect whereas before the dry it was just too big.

Thanks.


The weight is given on the website...that being said, they feel quite a bit heavier. I love them and wish I would have had them earlier in the season. My thoughts and dress are more toward spring at the moment.

I think it's okay but a little too small. Wouldn't do it again on purpose.

For comparison, pic with the shirt on right out of the box:

Thoughts?
