LOL yes all the belt loops are there (got an extra non attached one actually).I'll try to take a better pics later. I actually might be able to do a 29 but I'm pretty terrified 2 even think about exchanging these for the 29's because the higher rise on those. The 30's are already are pretty tight in the crotch area and I doubt that stretches at all.. How do yall recommend drying these? Hang dry or is machine dry alright? Thanks again.

Sorry to side track the never ending Rivet Chino discussion, but my girl got me a couple of the Johnston lambswool scarves and they are ******* ace. Especially that exploded tartan.

Thanks for posting the pic - they look great! Really glad that you're pleased with them.

Hell yeah, I got two final samples on Friday. Perfect chest, perfect sleeves, perfect armholes, but I'll probably give them a softer shoulder. Heading to the workshop first thing Monday morning to get it sorted. I'm hoping to have full delivery by the end of next week.

Sounds like the 30's are a good fit - you can expect a bit of break in anywhere in the crotch and seat where there's tightness.

It's true, the fabric is tough and can easily take a machine dry.

But our official Epaulet recommendation is washing in cold water and hang drying. It's the best way to get the most life out of cotton garments.

I know it's been mentioned, but what's the price on the full suit going to be? Also, are they all going to be three-button suits? Maybe I just have brain damage, but I thought the sample I tried on was a two-button jacket.

It'll be worth the wait. I stopped in the Manh store the other day and tried on the jacket. It's excellent. The drape is great. For the price (will defer to Mike on what the final price will be), it's an outrageously good garment. Agree with softening the shoulders. EDIT: The roll Mike mentions below works really well.

It will be $365 for the jacket and $185 for the pants - so $550 for the whole thing. It's a 3-to-2 roll front, so you can wear it as either a 3 or 2 button.

Love me some soft shoulders, and what a great price.
