@zenosparadox why on earth would you post so much fire the day before drop all in my size?!
Because I need the money to buy everything a size up from your size on drop day! (And then I'll inevitably lose weight, return to a L, have to sell everything I buy tomorrow, and will spend more money re-buying everything I'm currently selling.)

Sounds like you need to maintain two sets of clothes: a L closet and an XL closet :teach:

Yes, that's the dream, and likely necessary at some point because my weight varies drastically. Right now, even maintaining one wardrobe has my clothing pouring out of closets and into weathertight buckets. Two of everything would drown me (or, rather, cause my wife to kick me out of the house, which would leave me with no wardrobes and finally allow her to have a closet).

Two last pieces:

Sage de Cret cotton/linen field jacket in a really nice shade of green. Size M. Worn but no defects to mention. I'm taking a quick pic of this, but can get better pics up soon.

The last piece isn't strictly S/S, but is nice to have most times of the year: a pair of Camoshita easy pants in an awesome brown wool twill. Purchased from NMWA in Fall 2019 and never worn. Still new with tags. Looking for around $150 shipped.

Also have two Camoshita blousons/shirt jackets available. Looking for around $200 shipped each.

The first is new with tags from last season: a cotton/cupro striped cobalt version in size L. Greg wearing the shirt with Lescas here is what made me want to track this down, but unfortunately I could only locate it in a L, which is a bit too small for my typically XL frame.

Measurements taken across back with shirt buttoned:

Pit to pit: just a bit under 24"
Shoulder to shoulder: 19.5"
Sleeve from shoulder to cuff: 24.5"
Length from bottom of collar to hem: 26.25"



View attachment 1598099

The second is a triacetate/polyester blend with a wonderful crunchy feel. This was actually a F/W release, but is better suited to Spring and Fall in my opinion. This one had a retail price of about $100 more than the $375–$400 typically charged for Camoshita's shirt jackets. Not sure why, but perhaps something to do with the material. Notice also that this version of the blouson has a breast pocket, which I don't think any of my other Camoshita blousons have. This is as new - I think I've worn it once, but had the same trouble with sizing. Just a bit too small on me.

Measurements taken across back with shirt buttoned:

Pit to pit: just a bit under 24"
Shoulder to shoulder: 19.5"
Sleeve from shoulder to cuff: 24.75"
Length from bottom of collar to hem: just a bit under 26.5"

Ok, in response to some requests, I've updated the blouson listing with measurements for both shirt jackets, which are pretty much the same for both. I've also taken a picture of the yellow/beige blouson outside so that you can get a better idea of the color and texture of this fabric, which is truly wonderful. The picture taken in my dark hovel of an apartment didn't capture this very well. It's a nice subdued mustard tone that's reminiscent of both the current Ikiji linen shirt jacket and that Inglese Giubbutino (I know I'm butchering that word) from last season.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions!

Selling two NMWA items:

1. Rota brown higher rise cotton twill trousers, size 54. Near-new condition, only worn about three, maybe four times, and briefly each time. I had them brought in at the waist, then back out to then original waist. The currently measure 19 inches across the waist. I had them hemmed at 32 inches, with two inch cuffs. Awesome pants! Asking $220 shipped.

2. Merz B. Schwanen oatmeal-colored crewneck sweatshirt, size 7 (slim XL). Overall good condition, but shows some signs of wear and pilling. Tons of life left. Asking $65 shipped.

Both sold!

Album - if you're interested (with more pictures):


Happy to do discounts if you're purchasing multiple items - got some other stuff to list up too....

Consider this saving a life, trying to buy a new coat and 95% sure the GF will kill me if I buy MORE outerwear without selling stuff

A couple more things -- perfect footwear for Spring right into Summer!

Just remembered I had this pair of fisherman sandals from De Bonne Facture from last year. These are the cinnamon edition carried by NMWA. Perfect sandals, but I incorrectly sized up on my initial purchase -- which is this pair in a 45 -- and so needed to buy a second pair in a 44. These have been worn outside once (just enough time to figure out they were too big). These fit pretty tts in my opinion, and I assume fit the same as this year's version of these sandals. Selling for $145 shipped and will come in original box with bag and tag.

And then a completely new in box pair of Castaner Pablo espadrilles in gray suede - size 44. I have a few pairs of these and don't really have any reason to start wearing this pair any time soon, so will let them go in advance of an upcoming move. $100 shipped.
