Would you say the merino Kennedy is a light, medium, or heavy sock?

i would call it medium weight. I'm wearing them today with chucka boots and they amazing in sneakers. I think they are ideal for sneaker wearing in the winter, like Epaulet trainers, Stan Smith, et al. It's not as chunky as a camp sock or a hiking sock.

A bit late to the party here, but my first ever Rivet's plus my first ever Doyle - the Sashiko, finally made it here through Ecuadorian customs today.

Really delighted - the Cramerton fabric is really solid and love all the construction details of the Rivet. As for the Doyle, like everyone has said, it has a very soft drape, and the texture combined with the indigo is fabulous. Understated but really interesting.

Thanks Mike and Adele!

What's the latest on the museum calf sneakers? Sorry if I've missed an update...

@OhHello we got them last week and emailed every customer on the preorder.

They all came in except for 9 pairs. One of the boxes was lost or stolen in transit.. it had 9 pairs of Full Court Highs inside it. We're trying to track it down with the shipping company, but I'm not too hopeful TBH. I think that we're going to have to put thru an insurance claim.

If you ordered Full Courts, then send me a PM. If you didn't then we absolutely have your pairs here, and you just need to pay the balance. We've emailed people twice on it, but I know that some customers use alternate emails specifically for online shopping and don't necessarily check them all the time.

Reminds me of a score from a concert 15 years ago.

@jah786 I'd agree with that. I'm not the sock maestro that Jacob is, but the weight here is firmly in the middle of stuff we've sold in the past. Pretty ideal IMO. Not too thick for dress shoes, but not too thin and fine for sneakers/boots.

Ah, I ordered a pair of gunmetal full court highs, so I guess that’s why I didn’t get an email. :(

@OhHello gotcha... send me your name anyway, we may have them. 9 pairs are missing, but we still got about 12 pairs of Full Courts, and there's a few awaiting balance payments. The missing ones may still be found, they only close the investigation this coming Wed.

@Yako they've been finished for about a week and they're definitely being picked up by the freight forwarder on Monday. From there, we have a projected flight and arrival at LAX on 12/26. That could change, but it's the latest update.

I'm doing everything possible to get them here and emailing all parties on a daily basis. It's a crazy time to get air freight on commerical carriers due to holiday traffic. If you're on the suede order, you don't need to post or email or PM or IG us... I'm on top of it and you guys will know immediately once they're in our hands. I promise. We'll send out balance payments and ship fully paid items within 24 hours.

Sandows and ‘16 Garnet High Courts. Most comfortable kicks I own.

NMWA camoshita has something similar in color in Calvary twill though was too tapered for me (constantly got stuck at calf, so won’t look clean as trouser)
