It's actually a Modern Amusement cardigan. Mostly cheesy line (that's now out of biz), but they made some excellent sweaters. I wear that all the time.

And yes, we've got two chino's coming. In about two weeks, we'll have a Walt pant in tan Italian gabardine. It's mostly a cotton dress pant in a classic chino color, but can be worn casually as well. Made in NYC and dry clean only. At $165, I think that this will be the best-priced and best-made option of its style on the market.

On top of that, we're making an EP's chino as well. This will be made in LA and will be distinctly more casual with a lower rise, subtle coin pocket, and some EP's style details that you guys will definitely dig. Overall look and fit will be roughly the Smith Jean / New Standard slim-straight cut. I'm hoping to get this by mid-to-end March.

Too early to ask for details on that cardigan you mention in the interview, Mike?

Should be getting my second sample in about 10 days. Once we've got it worked out and we're ready to put everything into production, then I'll post up some pics. I think that you guys will really dig these.

Thanks for posting the pic - they're looking great! I wore mine today in the insane NY snowstorm.

Sure thing. We're looking to make an old-school shawlneck cardigan for the Fall. Something really solid that you can invest in and wear for years. We're working out the model now and trying to dial in a slim body and sleeves while keeping the overall fit true to the original shape. I'm hoping to launch them around early September. The craftsmanship is amazing, and we'll definitely bring them out for a good price.

A tiny nitpick: you should list 10 items a page instead of 9. When I see 9, I don't think there are more pages because all the columns aren't filled.

No, that's a major nitpick and you're 100% correct. We're working with a design team to redo a few of the functional aspects of the site, and that's one of them. We also want to install a "VIEW ALL" feature so you don't have to flip through multiple pages. Good looking out!

I've been meaning to point that out for a while; glad nonissue brought it up.

I should be more on the ball since it's the industry I work in.

Herr Temple,

We're looking at about 7-10 days for that one. The next shirts to be delivered will be the Pinpoint Oxfords and a restock of our Navy Tartan.

Oh, and GANT has shipped! We get it tomorrow!

That sounds good to me. I want to see that Gant jacket you have been raving about!
