Didn't both of the Byron and Airman release last week? I saw plenty of pictures of people trying them on in stores.

Stuff usually drops on the web store at 12PM JST on Tuesdays.

Yeah they did and I missed the drop. 😢

Looking for Wallace Deck US 10 in brown or burgundy. Any help would be appreciated. Also, will these be part of this fall winter drops? Thank you.

There was no stock of Byron or Purser jackets allocated for the webstore. The production run was insanely small it seems.

Whoa weird, I wonder why the production run was so small. I remember these were both pretty popular at the trunk show.

I got a pink Byron and a Olive Purser that I haven't picked up yet...

The pink Byron looked great. Just seen those lambskin Virgils. 😳

I’m hoping to pick up a kerchief from the upcoming release and need sizing help. I’m 5’7, 155lbs, 39” chest, typically a size M in US brands. Would a size 2 be the way to go if I’m looking for a roomy overshirt fit?

I think that would be the way to go. I think 3 would be too big. I’m like a 42/ 43 chest, XL in US sizes and wear size 5 in visvim most of the time unless oversized stuff and I got a 3 in the kerchief since it became a looser fit

 

[Retlas]

Yeah definitely a 2

 

[Retlas]

Did or has anyone tried on the tweed Airman?

 

[Xonnel]

Hey has anyone got these grizzly’s? Going to buy a pair but unsure on the sole? Are these resole able? The black bit looks a nightmare for cobblers? What even is that?
I’m not that into the white sole so will wear them for a few month break them in then resole them to a black sole hopefully but just looks a nightmare for a cobbler. Cheers.

Thanks fellas. That looks great. I’m going for the indigo pattern as well.

You might even want to consider sizing down to 1, although I think the US store doesn't generally stock size 1.

 

[Retlas]

depending on the fit you want - i would go with that advice. I am approx the same measurements and a 2 is still nicely an overlayer... a 1 would be a closer fit and hard to layer anything under it
