If you have fabric swatches, that's probably enough for some of us to put in a pre-order so we can get ours with the initial run. ;)


+1! the XS shirts sell out extremely fast. if i don't pounce within the first couple hours, usually they are gone. even now, there are only a few shirts remaining in XS on the web store. a pre-order with swatches would be great.

I just received my first pair of Epaulet Walts in slate Donegal, and have to say I am very pleased with the quality of the fabric and construction of the pant. The fit was however a bit of a surprise for me, as I am not used to having such well fitted trousers. They feel great when standing up, but become almost skin tight in the thigh when sitting with a leg crossed. I am 6'2", 170 lbs, take a 40L jacket and 32 pants. I bought these in 32 (TTS).

It may be possible that this is just what pants are supposed to fit like, and my other pants are entirely too large for me, so I ask you for advice. I am looking for something that fits well, but do not want something inappropriately slim for a professional environment.

Yeah I've got the pindot, so nice in person, I highly recommend it. That ocean chambray is kind of sexy.

I might have to pull the plug on the Small even though the chest and the shoulders are both an inch larger than what fits me perfect.
Thoughts? Shall i do it?

It's Context's measurements that are really throwing me off because they say the chest of the Small pindot chambray is 19.5".

Being that I haven't seen a single Gitman stockist carry the polka dot chambray in anything smaller than a S (I have only seen 4 carry it) I would suggest buying it.

Context actually has XS along with S but they show different measurements.

Why doesn't Epaulet restock the Smith jeans?

Weird, no idea where they're getting that. It's definitely measuring out at 19" for me. It's a pretty awesome shirt.

Ah sorry, our denim line - at least for the moment - is totally discontinued. If I can find a good production partner down the road then we may put them back into work in the future.

But, we're going full-force with chinos, so they'll hopefully be a good, non-denim alternative for you.

Oh man, Ocean Chambray is so good! It's very lightweight though, just as a heads-up.
