They look very similar to the knit linen polos we've been selling for the last 6 years. So that was my guess. Could be wrong though as these don't seem to have reinforced taped seams... In any case, enjoy them - big fans of lightweight knit linen here.
Greg, let me know when there's a restock or drop for linen polos !

Lul different lighting but :uhoh:

Anyone been to a baptism lately? Full suit or odd jacket/trousers with a tie?

Bought a few things at Mashburn recently (just before the sale it turns out). They apparently started using a factory in Honduras for some of their seasonal stuff and the European cotton they use is amazing.

I grabbed these PJ bottoms and my wife tried to steal them. She was screwing with me and put them in the bag of items to take to her seamstress so I, of course, had to run back to Mashburn and get her a pair in a smaller size. PJs are like what my Grandparents would have normally had in their day, not the cheaper cotton or synthetic stuff you find at a Mall now.


I love bold summer shirts and this one is great and on sale as well.

Has anyone else thought about future-proofing their CM wardrobe for climate change? I'm in the process of developing a CM wardrobe from scratch and have had to think a lot about whether something like a flannel suit or a tweed jacket would ever get much wear in about a decade or so.

I think you're more likely to get too fat for your clothes over the course of a decade than what you're worrying about here.

I shifted to half-lined tailoring and ditched several winter suits after numerous mild winters.

I'm getting all my trousers hemmed 6 inches shorter to account for rising sea levels.
