Shipping out of the factory on Sunday. Should be in about a week after.

27C in Calgary!!? We have snow piles outside our door still from last week!

Awesome news! Sounds like the linen and polos might be dropping around the same time. Will the Madras be similar timing? I'll need to get a bundle of madras and linens.

Yeah I think we had snow like twice all winter, it's been nice but very dry. We've been hovering around 20 for a week now.

Madras will be a week to 10 days after.

Hi Rick,
This might be a weird question; do you plan on having ginghams in a heavy/thick fabric?

Anyone over 6 feet have any of their jackets? Would like to try out a sportcoat but not sure how it'll fit since they don't have an long sizes.

I'm 6'2" and have a dark blue wool sport coat in 38R. It fits OK, but not optimal by any means. I've received compliments, and although it's too short for my tastes, I'm sure most people don't really notice or care, considering how common these shorter jackets are.

Nevertheless, I'm waiting to see what S&M comes out with in a long, since I don't really want to buy another shorter jacket if I can get a long one.

All new sportcoats will be cut in Long sizes.

Anyone know how the Aiden chino is?

What's the Aiden Chino? Isn't that a Banana Republic Chino?

Are polos coming back? If they are, can you comment on their fit versus your contemporary button-up fit? Are they much slimmer?

New Polos should be here by next week. They run a bit on the slim side. but as they are knit, you only need about 1"- 2" extra room from your actual chest. For example if you have a 39" chest, the M, with a 40" chest fits fine. If you want extra room, size up to the L.

I personally wear a 15.5 Contemporary in the OTR Shirts, I'm on the chubby side for anyone who knows me, and wear a M in the Polos, though I should probably start wearing the L, haha. I'm 5'7" 175 lbs, 40" chest.

Thanks for the update. I wear 16 neck, and we're about the same height, but my chest is larger and I'm about 10 pounds heavier. The chest measurement on the large is what concerns me, I may have to size up, but then the waist might be too big. I'll keep my eyes open for them to come back in stock. If I make an order before my custom shirt is delivered, can you combine shipping?

What's the interest in 100% Cotton Basic T-Shirts? High Quality, consistent staples?

I know places like Gap have fallen off the map in terms of quality. Uniqlo has become hit or miss, or they poly blend.
