Damn.

Well, I don't think you'll have a problem selling that here.

the club short is the slimmest fit, although not the shortest.

I like the club shorts, I think they're a little nicer (in the details at least) than the five inch ones I've seen and you can roll them and they look pretty good. There might be new five inch shorts in a nicer fabric though. The club shorts are relatively slim but not really slim.

I have a one from the fall and I do wear it a lot. It does lose its shape a bit though. It's stretched a bit for me. Still fits but it's a little more loose than I would like. I have an all cashmere version as well and that has kept its shape fully.

The J Crew cotton/cashmere do stretch a tad. I take in the sides with a sewing machine, about 0.5" - 1" on each side.

Can someone help approximate the cost of having a pair of pants hemmed and tapered?

Just want to make sure I don't get ripped off.

Thanks!

I just got an email for Free Shipping on orders of $150 or more. I hope the sales start getting deeper as get further into the month.
