Just ordered my first pair of rivet chinos ... way too pumped to see them. Really enjoy this store a lot! Thanks.

are the colors of the cramertons off in your picture? looks a lot different from stock images.
looks to me like the pockets appear high.
anyone have any pictures of cramertons with the pocket flaps tucked in?

Just need to move the re-sew the buttons a little further down - easy fix.

British Khaki is kind of a more subdued khaki, with an olive cast. In low light, they look more olive, but out in the day they look like a very subdued grey/brown.
I think the Cramertons are closer to a golden khaki.

Yes, the color is a little bit off in the first picture. I should have mentioned that I used a flash. The second picture is closer to the true color, which is a kind of golden brown.

I could move the buttons, but having them a little high ensures that the pockets stay closed. I'm not sure that this has a perfect solution.

Mike/Matt, are you guys planning to make the spring/summer iteration of the navy pindot or will the only pindot shirts be Gitmans?

long ago Mike said "Cramerton is a variant of the British Khaki color, it's a dark tan with a bit of an olive cast."

So it has an olive cast too though? I'm looking to buy another pair of pants right now. Perhaps I'll just have to wait till the great pants restock of late february

Weird question, guys, but would you happen to have a small collection of the MOP buttons y'all use on your oxfords on hand someone could buy? I seem to have lost four in one really, really strange night.

For future references:
What style of trousers would be best for me if the service pants fit me pretty much spot on?

The Rivet Chino is going to fit exactly the same as the service pant. If you want a Walt trouser, I'd recommend getting a 32. It may be a bit large if you take a 31 in the service pant, but not by much. And you can always have the waist tailored.

But we'll have a ton of rivet chinos to choose from very soon.

are cramertons the same color as the british khaki rivet chinos? or not at all?

Hmm, I'd say that the Cramerton is a pretty typical "khaki." If you imagine the usual tan to dark tan khaki tone, that's pretty much it.

British Khaki has a distinct olive cast to it. It's also a much lighter weight fabric.

Nice! That stuff's a great fit on you.

do the rivets shrink at all when washed? and for reference, if I am a 34 in the rivet, should I get a 36 in walt?

Is the sizing info correct on the website regarding the Schott Chester coat? You guys recommend sizing down one from your shirt size, but I had the chance to try this jacket on at Barneys and it ran wicked tight (especially in the arms). Awesome coat BTW.

Picked up some Alden Suede Boots that were delivered today, and what else do I find in the box? MIke included a free Saphir suede cleaner. Thanks so much!

Mike,

I hope you guys make a red rivet chino, a true hue of red, one that is not already faded. It would be killer for spring/summer!
