OK Cool - I'll hit up a few more folks and we'll get the exact day nailed down. Looking forward to this! Man, nothing's better than being in LA and doing both "Dre Day" and Let Me Ride" at karaoke. Gangsta! And speaking of Gangsta, two new Epaulet Spring shirts came in. Words can't describe how stunning the Japanese Shadow Dot is in person. It's mind-blowingly soft too.

What are the chances of getting more button down collars? I can't get into cutaway, and I really wish I had bought that blue oxford BD.


Ooops, thanks, just fixed that.

And we've got plenty of B/D collars coming in. A bunch of the new madras pieces will be B/D, I'll definitely do a B/D gingham, and quite a few of our new Ashland shirts will also be B/D - including a blue japanese oxford cloth. We've got you covered!

The Madras looks awesome. Looked online and it states, "The length is shorter than your average dress shirt, allowing it to be worn un-tucked and casually while still looking sharp". Are we talking BOO or more Gitman V? As I'm 6' 3" BOO looks ridiculous on me whereas Gitman V looks pretty good. Anyone have an idea?

What about new chinos for spring? Maybe there is an answer way back in the thread, but I would anyhow be interested in getting to know what is coming up and when. Thanks.

Nice shirt drops, Mike. I just picked up that Shadow Dot shirt with the swiftness. I waited for that since I saw your swatch pic and think it looks great put together and like the long sleeves. Can't wait until it arrives on my door step!

the tartan mashup came and it is awesome. mine's a little louder than the pic we just saw. i'll try to get pics up later. my girlfriend saw it online and was unconvinced, but once it came she came over to my side on it.

also, i bought a small and did a standard wash & dry to shrink it some, and that worked really well for me. if it shrinks a little more with another wash & dry--or even if it doesn't--it's a great fit.

More like Gitman Vintage. Shorter than your average dress shirt is more referring to classic brands like Brooks Brothers, Thomas Pink, Turnbull, etc.

Band of Outsiders is in its own realm of fit entirely. Their shirts are intentionally "shrunken" for a specific look. Our fit is slim, tailored, and straight.

That's part of my trip to LA - we're still spec'ing out the next delivery of chinos. I've still got lots of inventory from the last batch, and our current fabrics are very much year-round and Spring-friendly. I would anticipate the next chino run to come around May or so. We'll definitely do a chino short, and restock items like Gunmetal, British Khaki, and Navy.

Oh man, you would absolutely love this shirt. It's actually moving faster than any piece we've ever put online - 22 pieces sold so far!

Mike / and anyone else with experience in the matter,

how do your shirts run lengthwise? I'm a shorter guy - 5'8" - and enjoy brands like BoO and WvG since they're a good length to be worn untucked. Brand like Ervell are just too long in the body for me.

that shadow dot shirt looks incredible and I really want to pick it up, but is it short enough to know worn untucked? I think I'd be a small in Epaulet.

TIA!

I'm 5'8" and wear smalls in Epaulet and also like the lengths of BoO and WvG untucked. Ervell isn't really intended to be worn untucked unless you're at or over 6 ft. or so IMO, but I would not worry about the sporty Epaulet shirts (like the shadow dot) untucked unless you have an extremely short torso. I wear them untucked without issue. If you want to compare, check his lengths in the charts with your other shirts and you'll see where they would fall. I can't wait to rock the bells with the shadow dot.
