Okay guys, I'm super excited for this!

Today I'm launching seven vintage M65 jackets. Matt Smith (Rebels and Rogues) sourced the garments and kept an eye out for ones with good proportions that would fit how we want them to. The coats date from the 1970s and were made here in the States by Alpha Industries.

We dipped all of them four times into a reactive indigo dye bath. The result is freaking awesome! The shell fabric takes the dye with horizontal striations.. and the color is a subdued navy. Patches and other details got totally dyed out. There's just nothing like it at all!

Sizing is individual for these, and we're going to have the following (approximate) sizes available:

38R (This one is already online and available)
36R
40R
40L
42R
44R
44S

These jackets are an easy fit, so the sizing will work for someone who's a bit off from that exact number too.

These are pretty cool. I wish the Air Force was a 44R as that was my service back in the day.

CUSTOM ORDER DOYLE/SINCLAIR/DEANS NUTS FIELD JACKETS

Hey guys! Ming here, your custom order contact. Here's some better photos of the new fabrics for the Custom Order Doyle/Sinclair/ Deans Nuts Field Jackets. We can only make 2-4 units of each, so get your orders in if your really digging something. If you have any questions about any of these fabrics you can ask here, pm me, or email me at [email protected]. Turn around time should be around early March with the factory being a bit more stable now as Eva said.

Here's the Link
Wool/Silk/Linen Blends

E. Thomas
From E. Thomas we have the peacock donegal that's been really popular already, so don't sleep on this one if you really want it. I'm also really loving the color and texture on the Lapis Basket Weave




Ermenegildo Zegna
From Zegna we have 5 gorgeous light weight wool checks that'll make up into the perfect spring tradition jacket.

TWEEDS & FLANNELS

Here's the link and photos of the tweeds & flannels also.
Tweeds & Flannels

My personal favorite out of the bunch is probably the Di Pray Indigo and Tobacco Step Weave. I just love the way it gives off a subtle tan tone with an indigo glow in the light. A close second would be the Cinnamon Donegal from Moon because a great brownish/red tone jacket simply goes well with almost everything in my closet and probably yours too.

Custom Doyle & Sinclair Fabrics

Hey guys, I'm going to launch these with today's newsletter. I'm taking a cautious approach to custom work in LA right now. The factory is back up to speed and ready to start work on these, but I'll probably limit our overall quantity to 20 units or so in Feb.. just so we can get back into the groove of making and delivering stuff on time. Plan is to take orders now and ship finished items by the first week of March.

There's some pretty stellar fabrics available! You can check the videos when you have a moment. Pricing is going to be from $325 to $375 depending on the cloth....

I ordered a pair of tweed trousers the first week of October. I haven't heard anything about them. Are we supposed to cancel our previous orders and then order these because they are available?

This is what I had to do for my early October Doyle order. Contact Ming to clarify this:[email protected]

Eva - perfect call on sizing the tees. Small was the way to go for me

All is fine. The October order will be ready in 6 weeks. Getting tweed pants in March vs. April isn't really an issue, since in either case they wouldn't be worn until next late Autumn.

Thanks for emailing Ming... he's doing a great job of getting everything collated, and we're going to absolutely attack any missing items. Things are still slow going with RTC, but I anticipate that we'll have most of it in hand by mid to end of next month.

Those tweed fabrics which were posted are all for our Los Angeles custom program.. so just Doyles, Sinclairs, and Field Jackets. They'll be in work next week.

Fantastic, that's great to hear! I need to really focus on talking about the t-shirts more. It's a new item for us, but running a report.. it looks like we've sold nearly 500 of them since last Summer. And we've had quite a few customers buy one or two and then come back for more. They'll definitely be something that we expand upon.

For next week, I'm planning to launch new t-shirts in:

PEARL GREY
BLACK GRAPE
VICUNA
STEEL MOSS (that's a restock)

And.. we'll have new solid sweatpants in all four colors too.

And... we should have our Dye Effect preoder items in hand around the end of next week.

It's good to have things moving again!

Got some great Doyle fit pics from Instagram recently too...

First up is @fashionthefurious in one of the olive sashiko doyles that we did with American Trench

Next is our very own @CausticMan in a custom French Blue duck canvas doyle (with natural buttons)

Third is @Jrock73 in a Tobacco Duck Canvas Doyle. This was a stock run that we did back in 2017 and it's still going strong...

For those attending dinners in Scottish castles this winter (or Texas ranches unaffected by federal energy regulations), Fox is offering 21/22oz barathea as one of their specials.

Oh, fuck. I was aiming at the Black Tie thread.

 

[Epaulet]

LOL, at some point I need one of those Scottish castle invites...

Here's the post from Instagram stories today... we got beaucoup Sweatpants and tees dropping on Tuesday. I should have all of those dye effect pieces next week too. We'll have extra stock in tees and a handful of open stock Kamigatas.
