Picked up my charcoal Heirloom cardigan from the mailroom today... this thing is absolutely sick, definitely one of the best knits I own right now. My only regret is getting online at 1:05 when the sale dropped; wish I could have nabbed the Blackwatch cardigan too

Rec'd cocoa tweed today. Fit is spot on. So pleased. Struggling not to buy a second pair

And don't forget the requisite public restroom pic.

^ Wheat donegals are getting dropped off to be hemmed today, will definitely post pics once I pick them back up

 

[applky]

Just got the cocoa and wheat donegal's in the mail today. Going to leave work at lunch and see if I can talk my tailor into having them hemmed in a 24 hour period. They usually take about a week to do this sort of work and I'm leaving town Thursday for a week. Really want to take one, if not both, with me.
What are you guys pairing the brown and wheat with?

A week for a hem? Bizarre.

All of those donegals are natural matches for #8 and Ravello shell. I'm wearing my donegals today, and personally like a gingham or tattersall with it.

And don't forget the requisite public restroom pic.

Haha, I get so envious of everybody here who lives in a city with decent tailors. Right now I'm in a small mid-west college town where it seems all the tailors have some sort of racket going on. $12 for a hem, $22 to get the waist taken out, guaranteed to take at least a week if not more, and mediocre stitching to top it all off...

Okay. Quick snap with my iPhone.
Don't even remember what the the pants are but they have a bit of green in them and they are flannel. Picked them up a few months ago when Mike put them on sale.
Epaulet trousers
BB extra slim fit shirt
Alden #8 cap toe boot

First off, Go Boilers

But if you ever feel compelled to take matters into your own hands, buy a small sewing machine and do it yourself - it's quick and easy to do a hem, and it's not hard to do the waist on these trousers. Just learn on a lesser pant first and then do it yourself! Think of each $12 and $22 that you could save by getting your own machine.

Good god....I pay $20 for a hem, $30 for waist, and wait at least a week. Stitching is good though!

Bay Ridge, eh?

(Joking -- of course Ercoles charges these prices for their work deservedly.)

LOL, pretty standard pricing by "tailors" round these parts. Dry cleaners are slightly less, but work is shoddy at best.
