Ah, you know I left that in there on purpose to show how the shirts fit. But maybe that's more confusing than helpful? I was kind of on the fence.

"Crap on a Crap Cracker" had me laughing for quite a while!

They're coming! Full restock of brown, and an introduction of black horsehide 685 boots will arrive around mid to late September.

^ Thanks much - looking forward to seeing them...

Any planned updates/modifications in the boot specs at all?

Mike,

Hopsack coming soon?
Thanks

Will the West Egg Sand Suede Longwings get re-stocked?

This. I was hoping my potential sizes (10 to 10.5) would still be available for when I was in NYC in June but looks like I am out of luck and no places close to try on a Leydon last.

Not really - the dark brown horse will be exactly as it was for Fall '11

The Black Horsehide is amazing too. If you guys didn't notice, I very rarely make anything in black leather. In many cases, black doesn't have the depth or interest of the equivalent skin in brown.

Not so with this horsehide. The black horse is gorgeous. It's got an awesome finish - not as glossy as shell cordovan, but with a deeper lustre than cowhide or chromexcel. It's really nice, and this boot is going to be a killer makeup.

Very soon! I'm expecting the Super 120's grey today and the hopsack next week. You guys will be the first to know!

Ah, unfortunately no. We got our restock on these way earlier than expected - they came in mid January. I know that a lot of guys don't really think about suede shoes until the Spring properly arrives, and we've been out of the key sizes for some time. Sorry about that! I don't have any new Aldens on the way until Fall, but I'll have four styles of suede Epaulet sewn by hand footwear within the next week or two.


And a quick note for everyone. Point Collar Oxfords are fully restocked in Blue & White. We've got sizes Small through XXL available.

Epaulet Point Collar Oxford Shirt Blue: $130

Epaulet Point Collar Oxford Shirt White: $130

are there any linen shirts on the way?

Is the Alden for Epaulet a continuing partnership, in the sense that you might decide to make them again for next season?

Thanks, would love a pair of them come September!

ok. decided to take a chance on the 9. they were still there, tempting me. Maybe I missed it.... what mocs are you planning to get in? Colors, etc?

Anyone know how the Kurabo denim (smith) shrinks compared to the 12oz cone denim? My Cone pair fit awesome but shrunk just a bit too much on my first wash. Now I just got a Kurabo pair that fits larger than the other pair initially so I'm tempted to shrink them a bit but I don't want another pair of jeans that are too tight. Tell me what you know.

Darn! Any plans for fall/winter button down solid color shirts? (doesn't have to be oxford material)
