A waxed cotton blazer seems like a nice idea, I'm trying to phase out synthetics and replacing them with waxed cotton or Ventile.

 

[xander_horst]

Amen to that. I've read that Ventile is quieter too, a bird-watcher's favorite.

Nice - thanks!

Does anyone have feedback/comments on the Courier Wind Shirt?

I just found out they have put a few things on sale. Who has "liked" them on Facebook? Apparently there is some kind of special offer today and it will be announced on their FB page but the work server here blocks FB

40% off the following men's items using code "LIKEUS":
- Guise Shirt
- Palm Pullover
- Confidant Short Plaid

They also have 3 women's items on sale. Not much of a selection, but it looks like this is going to be a weekly deal, so the item(s) you want might show up eventually.

Sadly the discount is not cummulative with existing sales.

Thanks for posting the above! Well...can you post the discounted items for those, like me, who don't have access to FB at work

Oh, the FB discount is applied onto the original price? A bit pointless then for something like Confident Short Plaid as it's on sale already. Oh well, but I guess no way they would do it the other way..

Another edit - I am seriously thinking about the Riding and Acoustic jackets.

Another edit - I am seriously thinking about the Riding and Acoustic jackets.

FYI, the Riding and Acoustic jackets are both 40% off now, plus free return shipping, if you want to try them out. Nau actually had a 40% off sale via their Facebook page on all their jackets/blazers last week (while SF was down), so I bought a few things, including the Riding Jacket.

Here are my thoughts on the Riding Jacket, hope it helps a little. Overall, I didn't really like it. Looks very similar to the Vice Blazer, but I didn't really like the material of the Riding Jacket. As someone posted earlier in this thread, it's reminiscent of a Kenneth Cole jacket. In terms of sizing, I probably would have been better off with a Medium (vs the Large in the Vice Blazer), as the Riding Jacket fits a bit bigger/longer. The Riding Jacket does feel quite a bit warmer than the Vice Blazer. Depends on what you're looking for, but I much prefer the Vice Blazer (I'd get another one if it came in something besides light and dark grey - although I'll probably end up getting the light grey one at some point too, haha).

Also got the Profile Fleece, and didn't like the fit and look of that either.

So looks like everything is going back, unfortunately.

Anybody interested in a Black Nau Rheostat in size medium? I have one that I bought in February and wore VERY lightly for the winter season and am looking to unload it for insanely cheap. Shoot me a PM!

Hello, thanks for the review! It's very helpful. I can't access Facebook from work but when I get home tonight I will see what they have on discount today (Wednesday is their FB offer day I think).

Oh I may also try the SOP blazer from Gilt as well....I have no idea what it's like and I am thinking it may have that Kenneth Cole effect....

I have a Riding Jacket, but after seeing the Vice Blazer in person, I'd recommend the Vice. The Riding is all poly, while the Vice is poly/cotton blend. The blend feels and looks a lot nicer. However, the blend doesn't have the same stretch as the poly stuff. My Riding Jacket is small and I can move fine in it, but I have to size up to medium for the Vice or Populous Blazers. I can wear them in small, but they restrict movement a bit. That sizing is a bit odd, since their small shirts seem to have more room than their small blazers.

But I'm waiting try the waxed cotton blazer.

I'm about to list some Nau items on Ebay. If anyone is interested in the following items, shoot me a message:

All items are Men's size Small
*NWT
**NWOT

Vice Blazer (Caviar Heather)* http://www.nau.com/mens/categories/jackets/vice-blazer-007M01.html
Shroud of Purrin Blazer (Caviar)** http://www.nau.com/mens/categories/jackets/shroud-of-purrin-blazer-007M02.html
Free Range Stripe Shirt (Caviar Stripe)** http://www.rockcreek.com/nau/free-range-stripe-mens/25493.rc
Free Range Stripe Shirt (Lapis? / Dark Blue Stripe)**
Polotariat Long Sleeve (Caviar)* http://shop.sdcmountainworks.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=0&idproduct=15929

The last 3 items are no longer offered from Nau's website.

Of course, I'd rather not deal with the hassle and fees of Ebay. So if you're willing to help me avoid that, I'll cut you a deal on the asking Buy It Now / Best Offer I was going to list them as. StyleForum prices will be:

Vice - 180
Purrin - 250
Free Range - 50 each
Polotariat - 30

If you purchase at least 3 items, I'll waive any shipping fees.
If you'd like to see my Ebay feedback:

http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...userid=hangyourheadachedhead&ftab=AllFeedback

As you can see, I recently sold a Nau Dual Citizen Hoody for far less than retail and the buyer was very pleased. My feedback reflects my honesty and professionalism with my items. If you'd like to see actual pictures of the items, I can certainly provide them.

Nau's first Fall drop.

http://www.nau.com/mens/categories/fallarrivals/
http://www.nau.com/womens/categories/fallarrivals/

The highline blazer has some interesting ideas. The elimeno-pea coat doesn't look too bad (edit: I really like the scarf on the model, though...)

I may just get one of the cotton/yak tees for now and wait till the next drop. Yak. lol
