Did I miss details about a trunk show in Westwood today and tomorrow? Saw it mentioned in the newsletter yesterday, but I didn't see an address or time or anything.

@Duke Silver

Yup, my apologies.. you should have gotten an email about this. We did a separate newsletter to everyone in CA. Here's the info...

************************************

Dear Friends!

As a resident of the gorgeous State of California, you're receiveing this notice about our upcoming Trunk Show with Individualized Shirts. We know that getting over to Hermosa Beach isn't easy for everyone, so we rented a beautiful suite in Westwood for two days to offer fittings in all our custom products.

Wellworth Apartments
10980 Wellworth Avenue, Westwood, Los Angeles, 90024

Wednesday, June 21st: 5PM to 10PM
Thursday, June 22nd: 11AM to 6PM

We chose this spot for its central location... it's right near the Wilshire exit of the 405. Wednesday evening will have a seleciton of refreshments and snacks... and most likely an afterparty somewhere close by. Thursday is open during the daytime for anyone who wants to visit then.

Jim Hanrahan from Individualized Shirts will be on hand to fit customers personally. We'll have new fabrics and on-site promotions.

In addition to custom shirts, we'll have:

• Hertling trouser fit samples across all models and sizes
• Aero Leather jackets fit and leather samples
• Southwick Suiting sportcoats and swatches
• Our new Tennis Trainers and Sport Trainers in genuine Ostrich skin

All of the above Made to Order mechandise will be discounted by 10% for anyone who attends.

RSVP's are not required, but they're helpful for gauging the amount of booze and snacks we need to bring. You can RSVP by just replying to this message.

Thanks and we look forward to seeing you!

FYI, I didn't get the email either unless it was buried in the Gitman email.

Received my freshly repaired Dartmouth straight from the Southwick factory just in time for a concert in NYC tonight. Excellent service all around from EP and SW. Thanks folks!

+1. Maybe our names got mixed up

Curious as to the issue you had...?

@Epaulet -

Any chance of a Chicago trunk show?

 

[Duke Silver]

@Epaulet Sadly won't be able to make those hours. Is it cool to schedule a time at the studio next week to get re-fitted without actually buying anything? I'm starting a new show in Silverlake in a couple of weeks and it would probably be easier to make the journey to Orchard St than Hermosa Beach from there (and I realize that would require a time machine) and I just wanted to get a couple sizing things completely dialed in while I still have my days open. Will you be in all week?

Although, if the new Doyles are in by then, I'll definitely will walk away with one of those.

Stitches were coming out at the sleeve lining and front pockets.

 

[Epaulet]

I can't keep up with the speed of this thread, but I remember a while back the idea of a 5 pocket pant in the rivet fit was thrown around. Was there any further discussion of this? Just curious because it sounded up my alley

@K. Nights we were playing with that idea, but nothing concrete in that direction just yet. We're mostly trying to keep our inventory of Rivets up to the level of demand TBH. Finally got more 8oz canvas shipping out on Friday.

@Epaulet thanks just to verify before I order...10d in barrie means I order 10.5 in the trainer?

@indianshaft yup, that would be the equation for most of our customers. The Barrie is a nice comparison to our trainers

FYI, I didn't get the email either unless it was buried in the Gitman email.

@lifeinabox yeah, I see.. something went wonky with that customer export. We resent the newsletter today. Hope that some of you guys on here can make it out!

@nd1nd2nd3 nothing concrete planned, but I'd love to

@Duke Silver

Right now we're scheduled for Doyles to finish sewing on Monday. If all goes well, we can have them washed and ready for pickup on Thursday. So if you can come over next Friday, I should have them all here. There's a chance we'll have the Teba's and Saffiano items too, as they're getting picked up in Portugal on Friday.

And of course, people come by to do sizing all of the time. No pressure if you don't want to buy anything. But you do get 15% off any stock items if you make the trip down here. I've had a few customers interested in custom stuff who leave with a hat, wallet, belt, etc. We have all of those small items on hand.

Mike, just out of curiosity, is it possible for Individualized to do white collars on color/patterned shirts? Or a curved front hem?

 

[Duke Silver]

@Epaulet Cool. Just scheduled something for next Friday.

Yes on the collars @Mghart ... it's a $15 upcharge for just the collar and $20 upcharge for the collar and the cuffs.

No on the front hem, unfortunately.

@Epaulet Cool. Just scheduled something for next Friday.

Might shoot through to the Trunk Show already on this side of town anyway.
