So is Model 12 basically ventless version of Model 11, or there are some other difference I'm missing?

It's definitely most similar to the 11, but there are a few key details.
Our only one piece back, as well as our only 2 button jacket. It's also got its own new patch pockets, much more rounded than the Ivy style pockets on the 11. It's also got different edge stitching and a lighter canvas.

Just saw a video of Mark wearing Nigel Cabourne X Armoury army chinos.
Didn't see that mention anywhere about this new collab.

Can you tell us more and show some pics?

At the moment they are an Hong Kong exclusive, as we have our made in the US Army chino in our New York shops. We can always get a pair sent over if you'd like! Here are some pics.

they're more of a straight leg fit I assume

My decade twill Model 11 is arriving via UPS today. Excitement abounds.

They are in NY now. If you call the store, you can order over the phone.

Yup! Somewhere between our sport chino and the NY Army Chino. Very similar fit to our Nigel denim.

Also, I can say that this season's Loro Piana Coarsehair sport coat is incredible both online and in person.

It's a standout piece! I've got the same cloth made with Orazio.

So let's hear some thoughts and impressions about the fabric. Why did you opt for Model 11 versus Model 3?

Fabric is great, dense and soft. I rushed in to purchase because I had work haha, more details once I receive it.

I picked the 11 over the 3 because I like the machine stitching on the lapels and the 3 patch pockets, quite casual details, works well with a lot more of my wardrobe. Also my first model 11 haha.

I tried model 11 when it first came out, i guess the true "soft" nature make it look like a real sack on me and I never liked it, but I can see it work well for some

I have the brown tweed herringbone Model 11 from last fall and really like it (wearing it today with cords and an oxford shirt actually). The fit is great after a bit of tailoring in the waist. I thought the shoulder and lapel were perfect. I opted for the Model 11 blazer because it reminded me of the 3/2 roll, patch pocket Brooks blazer I used to have...but way better. The detailing on the lapels is really great as well.

I bought a size 50 and the waist had enough taper from what I could see and feel. I just had the sleeves shortened and collar dropped. Also opted for functioning buttonholes. I actually do not have a nice navy sport coat, so this will be my staple. 4-ply fabrics are my weakness
