I’m pretty sure they’re the same pricing as regular trousers depending on the fabric you choose. I can’t recall the exact price, but I picked a higher-end linen for them.
Do you recall which mill? I’ve wanted to do some linen pants and love that color. Also love this style and will possibly have to have Joe make me up some as well.

I don’t. But Joe will know.

Really happy with the order I just received, a shawl collar tux, tux shirt, and a blue canclini skin chambray dress shirt. Will post pics once back from being pressed. First time ordering, really nailed the fit on the shirts and jacket. Back of pants around seat need a little clean up due to my forward hip stance, which we discussed during fitting as a recurring issue of mine, it’s better than my RTW pants but still needs work. Overall, very pleased and looking forward to more orders.

Just got back from a 10 day trip to the tropics which included a 7 day cruise. My travel wardrobe was highly Hemrajani- and Rubinacci-centric, as is largely true with my wardrobe as a whole these days. I thought I’d post a few photos focusing on some of my recent Hemrajani purchases for your amusement. I may do more than one post.

Let’s start with formal wear. On his last visit, I told Joe I wanted a white dinner jacket. What we wound up conceptualizing was based on a Loro Piana cashmere/silk fabric that I posted previously. The design is meant to be almost a Swiss Army Jacket that can be worn as formal wear or more casually as a blazer.

It is a single-breasted, peak-lapel (self-faced), one-button with jetted pockets and double vents. Here are a couple of pics worn as formal wear on the cruise (note: the dinner shirt is also Hemrajani).

Here is the same jacket worn as a blazer with a Hemrajani white linen shirt and Steed brown linen trousers (not visible).

There are a couple of fit issues with the jacket that I’ll resolve with Joe when he’s here next. But overall I’m pretty happy with the result.

For post #2 I’ll focus on the more casual stuff.

First, the linen beach trousers I posted before. Worn here with a Robert Barakett tee and a Neiman’s chambray short sleeve shirt.

Next, is a raspberry linen camp shirt. I also had him make me one in a bottle green.

Same shirt with a pair of Rubinacci “Manny” gurka shorts.

Excellent stuff! That off-white LP fabric works well as a dinner jacket! I think you did a good job with the design of it. My only comment, and this is purely personal, is that I don't like the swelled edge around the lapel. Joe made my lavender jacket that way and I didn't like it at all. He offered to remove the stitching, but I didn't dislike it enough to have them rework it, but I have to say it does bother me every time I put the jacket on. So when I commissioned a second jacket in the same fabric that you have @Mark from Plano I told them not to add the swelled edge and I like the plain lapel much better. But, as I said, it's just my taste and not at all a criticism. I think the DJ looks very sharp indeed!

Canclini Skin Chambray: very light, not sheer but quite thin. Neapolitan spread collar.

Just got my first Hemrajani shirt in the mail last week. Wore it a couple of times and fit seems good so far assuming shrink happens as they predicted - took it to my hand laundry to get the shrink over with - hopefully when it comes back everything is good to go and I can start replacing my OTR shirts!

Having been a customer for 10+ years I can say that I've been very pleased with the way they estimate shrinkage in fabrics. I think you'll be satisfied.
