They've also softened their collar lining a bit, which was an issue I had with the last round I bought (I was pretty happy with the last round for the price I paid, despite that issue). I bought six, including shipping ($30) the total was $150.

Good deal.

Sadly slim fit, 15 or even 15.5 x 35.5 is unavailable in white poplin, blue pinpoint, blue PoW, pink mini bengal.

I'm definitely not skinny, but then again I'm not a ***** either. I used to play football in college so I guess I would consider myself "athletic" cut. But BB ESF shirts work pretty well for me, so if I can find a cheaper alternative with a similar cut I would be a very happy man

There are exact measurements on their site. They're definitely not ESF material.

Yeah, once I post something like this on Put This On, stuff starts disappearing real quick.

Edward Green Trunk Show


A reminder that our spring trunk show with Edward Green takes place this Thursday May 5th from 11 - 7 PM. Robert Godley and Xavier Candat of Edward Green will be on hand to assist and take your order.

Trunk shows offer a unique opportunity to view many shoes and boots in one place. You will have the opportunity to choose among models, lasts, leathers, colors, and soles.

May 5th also marks Leffot's third anniversary. To celebrate we will present our first limited edition Anniversary Shoe the Edward Green Westminster in Horween navy shell cordovan.

100% of the profits generated from sales of our Anniversary Shoe will be donated to relief efforts of the Japanese Tsunami.

Our EG shows are tremendously popular. We present the largest selection of samples assembled at any Edward Green show in North America, including classics, core lines and new models. If you love EG shoes and frankly who doesn't, you can't afford to miss it.

The event is open to all; however we ask that you please contact us to schedule an appointment, this will help us to better serve you. We have already received a great deal of interest in this show we hope to see you there.

For more information about this event or to make an appointment please contact us at 212-989-4577 or [email protected].


I wonder what the price will be on that beaut.

I would say they are pushing the bounds of even being called slim fit.

This is mostly a repeat of my comments in the other thread on this topic.

I was actually surprised at the quality of the fit, although I'm not "slim" in the SF sense (6' 220 lbs, 44" chest, 35" waist). I can move easily, but no collections of loose fabric anywhere. They note on the website that the "slim" fits are for people who are, in their words, "lucky enough to have a flat stomach" and I believe that's what they delivered. If you would described yourself as "slim," probably not for you, but if you're just a normal sized guy in good shape, they work nicely.

Neiman Marcus Last Call has a 35% off any-non sale item online today through May 5. You can also get free shipping with the code LCMAYFS.

Pretty picked over selection, but I used the code to buy two house label belts.

For those in the suit market, a couple of Hickey Freeman suits (including this gray staple) are available for under $400, shipping included. No 40R's, unfortunately.

Like forcing a test drive of a car before discussing price.
