Where are you seeing these for sale? I’ve been looking for quite some time now.

In the archive section of the official EK webstore.

I highly recommend the lady white crew neck sweats. The ribbing at the cuff and hem are incredible. Either tts or size down as you see here.

 

[hobojones]

I 1000% agree ^
Brick bois with lambswool flannel elastics

hated the way that ribbing looked on the site but it looks much better on you guys. the colors are all very good though.

What’s the fabric like in the Lady White sweat? I was considering the brick color big shirt but now i’m torn

 

[Samer]

It’s the same hemp/cotton blend as the hoodies. A mid weight sweat fabric with a slubby texture. Brick is best IMO.

Interestingly enough the brick crewneck is different from the EK hoodie I got from the prior batch. The hoodie is thick, slubby, stays super soft. The new brick crewneck is lighter and doesn’t have any slub to it. Fit and color are both absolutely amazing though. I was gonna discuss the differences with Taylor at lady white next time I stop by.

Got a pair of cord elastic pants and am curious what kind of belts y'all like styling with EK?

has anyone handled the wax cotton fabric from this season? The four pocket pants look great but not sure if they'd be a bit sweaty

Latest editions just dropped. This thread dead? So quiet here

New stuff looks great. But I guess it’s also just subtle variations on a (very good) theme.

The natural dyed and wool/paper fabrics stuck out to me. The three button jacket also looks nice but the prices are eye-watering.

 

[hobojones]

Agree that wool paper looks the most tempting. I stopped by DSM LA the other day and they had absolutely nothing. SA told me it’d be a few weeks before they got the new shipment so I can’t check anything out in person.

If anyone is looking to move their big shirts/knit shirts in L/XL let me know what you got as I may be interested. Particularly in last season’s kasuri check.

 

[leftysmasher]

His stuff is glorious once again. Once you get to feel the fabric, texture, slubbyness, weight etc it’s another story lol. Evan is just reaching out for higher end - and with that comes higher pricing lol..

It's great to hear what other people have to say. Appreciate everyone's thoughts. I'm still not sold on EK. Have had a few things of his over the past couple years, but only the wool corduroy bellow jacket has found a home in my closet. I love oversized and anti-fit, but most of the EK things I've tried on just don't look good on me. Proportions, drape, length and so on are off. Often can't get past the french seams on the shoulders, which are sometimes messy and bunched because of material type, and ruins the drape and fit on me. Love most of the fabrics he uses, but other designers use comparable materials at a better price point. And I'm undecided on the blotchy dyed stuff. Persimmon seems to be popular this season, and a handful of other designers have better looking fabrics. In the end, the overall quality to price ratio isn't cutting it for me.
