what does:

A single-curtain cotton waistband helps to keep your shirt tucked.

when I was waiting on something else to come in I just bought what I wanted online anyways to lock it in, and then sent them an email to hold it until the other item came in. Worked as planned, if I had waited 1 more day the double face shirt would of been sold out.

Thank you sir! I know that Canadian customs can be a pain with processing times, but you guys still get the last laugh with free heath care.

Absolutely. If you like, you can buy the chino's now and pay for the shipping there. I can then send you an invoice for the Walt's without a shipping charge. We'd then be ready to send both pieces out around the end of next week.

The curtain is a little tab of fabric which sits on the bottom on the waistband on the inside of the pant. It sticks out and lightly grabs a shirttail when you tuck it in. It's a smaller, more casual version of the double curtain waistband that we use in our trousers.

I'm crying because I got the red gingham with trocas buttons in a large that Epaulet was carrying a while back, and it's just too small. I am seriously kicking my self ********** for that one. Look for it on the B&S soon, folks! Seriously, I loved that shirt

Really glad that you dig the Blackwatch tartan. I wear those Tartan seersuckers more than anything else that we make. We're almost totally sold through that, but I'm going to check this week if we can do another run.

Oh, and we don't have a red gingham long sleeve on the schedule, but I've got two others:

1. Maroon Gingham longsleeve in lightweight cotton lawn. ETA early next week
2. Gingham shortsleeves in Red, Black, and Navy. ETA about 4 weeks.

Oh man, I'd really like too. They actually make that fabric in white but it's sold out. I'm actually fighting right now just to get more stock in the basic colors.

We will, however, make an ivory white-on-white seersucker trouser in the Walt fit. That's going to be bad ass.

Liking the sounds of those. Briefly owned a black SS gingham shirt last summer, but never wore it because it was too big. You guys should get some SS shirts out there with the button sleeves that give you the option of the sleeve roll to SHO OF UR GUNZ MOAR.

Yes, but probably for late August. I'm working with Gitman on doing a few special makeups for the season. We'll definitely restock that cream Tattersall though.

I was planning on using plastic tortoise buttons, but let me see - we might have enough colored trocas to hook those up. I agree - I love smoke and copper trocas on gingham!

Oh man, this Black Gingham is going to be mod as hell! The sleeves are the current model are actually kind of short compared to most shirts out there.

Speaking of that, last night I had a personal training session at a crazy bodybuilding gym in Chelsea. When I walked in, their system was already blaring "Ray of Light" by Madonna. The dudes in there would definitely appreciate some GUNZ-baring short sleeves. I could probably set up a kiosk and make a killing on Epaulet-branded wife beaters and bike shorts. Could be a nice brand extension for us!

Yes sir, the direct link is here. We've still got all sizes in both colors:
EP's Chino's and Denim

And, our team here is packing something like 50 pairs of chinos to go out this morning. Thanks again guys! I'm really keen to hear what you think of them. We're working on the second edition right now.

My chambray is here!!!

Came home from work late. Threw it on and was off to the supermarket to get some groceries (as if you can't tell).

Fantastic fit. Love it!
