ROCHESTER TAILORING X EPAULET TROUSERS

Hey guys! Here's some pics of trousers that we received and shipped out yesterday. They are INSANELY nice. Overall, the quality on all of these garments is a few levels above Southwick, and you're going to be absolutely delighted by how they fit and feel. It's been a long wait, but it's wonderful to see this stuff finally coming through.

Here's Navy UK Moleskin with a rad watch pocket...

This brick wide-wale corduroy is an absolutely perfect color tone...

This Houndstooth tweed is extra dope in the high-waisted Taylor shape

These blue cords are actually part of an incredible 3-piece suit. I'll have pics of the jacket and vest tomorrow

And a beautifully executed button fly!

Hey Eva,

My trousers (the grey ones with the button fly) arrived today and I simply couldn't be more pleased with them. Great job to you & RTC!

Got my navy graph check shirt, and it fits great. I assume this is a pretty typical and consistent fit for your 'stock' shirts? I got this one to see if how it fit (esp because the sale stuff was discounted even more a few weeks back, will def grab that lumberjack one if that happens again!) but at least I know the chainstitch M fits me well and others will in the future.

@carrma that is so fantastic to hear!! I screenshot this and sent it along to the team at RTC too.

We're really so excited for the future with them. Our launch was definitely dropkicked by COVID, but they're back in fighting form and we expect to get every backorder within the next weeks. And to offer a confident 4-6 week window after that. I've got some new designs and patterns in work already, and it's really my ambition to offer the absolutel best combination of style and price in US-made custom tailoring.

We're going to start a separate thread for Epaulet x RTC, and we'll be taking any and all suggestions that you guys have. They're willing to develop entirely new shapes for us.

Oh, and I'll absolutely be at the factory in June to do an on-site feature and "Ends for Friends" promotion.

@banjozombie great to hear! And yes that is a great guide for our stock shirts. You'd also most likely take a 38 in our jackets. I try to keep the sizing consistent among styles as much as possible.

Has anyone tried the Trophy collar on his Individualized Shirts? Any real life pics?

I think that the homie @L.I.T. might have some... he was a habitual Trophy collar customer

Oh also a few other notes:

1) We're offering the $369 promotion on 3 oxford shirts until tomorrow (Sunday). It's a GREAT deal for three custom American-made shirts. There's quite a few fabrics to choose from, the only limitation is that you need to style all three with the same details. Timing is great as we'll be able to ship these around mid May.

2) I'm going to relaunch our Rivet Chino short project tomorrow. We've still got good inventory in the five colors of Nylon/Cotton fabric, and it's a perfect item for the Summer. Last year's short was a little tight, so we tweaked the pattern to have an extra inch in the waist and half inch in the thigh. Fit will be more consistent for everyone, so you can comfortably order your usual size. This cloth is awesome for the Summer, it's tough as hell, and it hang dries in no time.

3) I took a little trip with my partner to Mexico, so I'll be mostly off until Wednesday, but you can hit Ming at custom[at]epauletbrand.com if you have anything urgent. I'll work to catch up on everything right after I return, including shipping out orders.

It's gorgeous here but also insanely humid. Despite my best efforts, my hair pretty much looks like Tina Turner's in "Beyond Thunderdome." We visited this beautiful "cenote" natural lake earlier today...

4) Rest in Power to DMX. I know that quite a lot of us are fans of his music..
