For those of you that have the box pleat self belt trousers in basketweave, did you go with your usual size/pattern? I did, but I keep coming back to the conclusion that that specific combo lends itself to a fuller cut.
Thoughts?

I did -- and mine came out feeling MUCH fuller anyhow? Might be the sturdiness of the basketweave...

I went with my usual tapered cut. The top block is roomy enough for me, and the small pleat adds a teeny bit of volume. If you go fuller cut, it will definitely be more reminiscint of denim fits

I requested fuller thigh and a longer length. Mine are plain hem.

as an aside, got my 3-ply wool shirt and charcoal last week and have worn it almost everyday. Such a comfortable shirt.

Is it scratchy against the skin or just soft and cool to the touch?

Anyone grab anything from their Holiday collection?

I’m eyeing the Pressed Flannel shirting but wish I could try the cloth in person. Anyone experience it?
