But the fact that you're shooting for the casual feel while not having the jean style pockets puts this into "lock territory". Tickle me excited. Any initial thoughts on pricing? A little less than the walt cotton trousers or same ball park?

Now, did you check you're PMs? I sent you one. I am a man confused, and I need you're help!

And sorry for the delay on PM's - we're doing a newsletter this afternoon, but I'll get back to everyone today.

Cheers,
Mike

The Whiskey Shells look seriously like butter. Too bad they're above my pay grade.

The chinos sound very promising--in fact, they sound perfect. I hope I'll be able to get my hands on a few pairs when the time comes.
