Love a nice pair of cords with a sportcoat in F/W. Better if cords are high-rise with side adjusters.You’re right. The fabric is beautiful.

They're supposed to be 28mm (source) but I measure them to be more like 26-27mm. However, I don't have a caliper so take that with a grain of salt.I'm planning to swap the buttons to smaller, horn ones too. These seem decent: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/8-Dark-Brow...ket-sizes-13-16-7-8-1-inch-cb461/293548410569
Can someone actually help measure the diameter of the current buttons on the cardigan? Just want to make sure I don't order bigger or same ones.
Rick was saying the buttons ended up being plastic because they "didn't come even close to the [minimum order] quantity required" for genuine horn buttons in that size.They're plastic because they're big? Huh?
Looking great, mate. Have you considered a combination in which you try to bring out the pink in the jacket?Grey Moon PoW from 2018, Botto Giuseppe high rise flannels (best flannels I’ve ever tried and relaunched this season) and purple label Italian collar shirt - this will be my go to collar for any future MTO shirts, its perfect.

Sir, I believe those are plastic as wellI'm planning to swap the buttons to smaller, horn ones too. These seem decent: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/8-Dark-Brow...ket-sizes-13-16-7-8-1-inch-cb461/293548410569

I thought the most straightforward way of doing a cuff was to give it a hem like you describe (one cuff length longer than the inseam, with a corresponding amount also extra on the inside, of course) and then simply turn it up and tack it. In other words, if you want a two-inch cuff on a 32 inseam, with let's say one inch from the inseam to the hem stitch, then you turn up three inches on the inside, from 34 inches overall, and then simply turn the two inches back up for the cuff. This will leave the hem stitch at one inch from the bottom, and you'll be able to see it when you peek inside the cuff (assuming it's not a blind stitch, as you described).FYI, There are different ways of doing a cuff, but a true cuff is ideal for durability of the hem and longevity of the trousers themselves. A true cuff uses a regular stich for the hem (similar to chinos) as opposed to a blind stitch--since the hem won't be seen--making for a much more secure hold than a trouser without a cuff. The hem is longer than the desired inseam because the fabric is folded over itself and then sewn in place at the side seams (any cuttings to reduce length are discarded, NOT sewn onto the cuff). This means that the friction point between your pant leg and shoes or the ground actually occurs past your measured inseam at a length twice the width of the cuff. So if it begins to fray, you can easily release the hem, fold back the cloth, and have either a smaller cuff or an uncuffed hem put in with the frayed section either removed or folded inside the leg.
So the cardigans are 1kg+? Kent Wang's cardigans are around 1kg so this would mean that they're the same weight?

You’re right. The fabric is beautiful.

Here’s a quick shot of the navy shawl cardigan. I’m liking the slouchy, relaxed feel. I wear a 36s slim jacket and I took a small.

I would fold any fine gauge knit wear made of merino wool over hanging, no matter the thickness. No one likes shoulder dimples lol. If you absolutely must hang them, fold them then hang them on the trouser bar partTotally mundane question (my specialty): the merino wool turtlenecks, fine gauge not cable knit--will they stretch out and lose shape if I hang them? Or is it better to fold them and store them in a drawer? Same question for the merino wool LS polos
out of curiosity, what is your normal sleeve length? And it looks like the sleeves are rolled a bit?
I’m trying to figure out how mine is going to fit before it comes in on Tuesday, I haven’t seen too many smalls posted here
I mean sure but my whole point was that the buttons on these new shawl cardigans are a tad big. So, at least for purposes of this shawl cardigan and pieces like it, there's no need to "source huge" buttons of any kind--plastic, horn, etc. etc.Seems like you don't upgrade coat buttons often. It's hella hard to source huge genuine horn buttons with the color you want. I've resorted to settling with smaller buttons which I prefer anyway.
Ideally the cardigan buttons should be replaced with a 28mm but a 25mm could work. The price difference between the 20mm vs 28mm is quite huge.
