Dont usually like W + H but this looks pretty cool. Not bland like most of their stuff.

I agree with this. I also think the first would be more versatile and have my eye on them for my size, but have to wait for restocks. The Natural color is my pick.

I am a fan of that colorway over the navy one they released and was actually contemplating that before I decided to jump on the parka instead. I still would have preferred they used buttons instead of a zipper, but still gets my vote.

Hey, hope all is well where you are man given the flooding. Forget your exact location, but hopefully you have made out ok.

argh you're deliberately antagonising me aren't you?

NZ=/ Aus.



all good man. Trust me, if there was flooding here i would certainly break out the togs you sold me!


we did have some heavy rain last night though, so who knows?

Hopefully that all clears up in Aus though. I have a few cousins over there, they're all right. pretty crazy

^ Shite. I thought it you were from down under, bad memory man, oops. I'll continue to blame my cold meds until I feel 100% again.

Hope the trunks serve you well though my man

In Toronto, at Nomad. They're not showing up on their website, but they had them in 48, 50, 52, I think (there were two pairs of 48s; not 100% sure what the other sizes were, except that they were bigger).

damn, i'm a 46 in pants. O well, my search continues. I want high rise + pleats and a relatively relaxed cut, but not MC. maybe that is MC by definition. also don't want belt loops. Hopefully i'll find something.

I tried on this black slim fit jacket and it seems to fit really well. The hand length is good (at last) and the waist is narrow. The shoulders are broader than on most jackets so they fit my build although you can see a bit of shoulder muscle protruding at the side. It's about 180 bucks for the jacket and so far I haven't found anything better. I'm not sure if this jacket goes with pants (suit), but I would buy the set if it does. It's cotton. What do you think?

I'll be taking these in a bit in the waist - I'm more of a 46 as well. They fit a bit small, for a 48. Think I'm going to go buy them. Here's hoping I look like the Thin White Duke, and not just a weird old man.
