Why continually reproduce something found elsewhere on your main web page, forcing customers to see it every time? Am I supposed to believe that as a customer of South Willard I am among the more cultured?
to each his own, but for me that is a good shop and not the best target for picking on. Especially when there are so many boneheaded operations out there deserving of abuse.

Can't speak to the Ervell part but I really really don't see the problem with the front page-blog thing. If that's pretentious we here are all pretentious elitists too (which might very well be the case but still...). It's not like you're forced to read the godamn articles before being able to browse the products.

Not sure about s/s11, but for f/w11 everything except the alpaca knits is supposed to be US-made.

sipang · Jan 31, 2011

Yeah, I think everything's being made in the US again, not sure how long the switch lasted in the end (F/w 2009 - S/s 2010 ? ). I'm far from being the most knowledgeable on the subject though.

yea, i did.

partly because i'm confused about what cut fits me best. currently i only have the KMW 2010's and am liking them. will probably end up selling the two that i can live without. i think rotating 2 jeans for 2011 is pretty reasonable, given that i'm wearing bcasual for the week

shibbel · Jan 31, 2011

^^yeah, either return some or break out the chaffing cream.

uNiCoRnPriNcEsSx · Jan 31, 2011

out of the 4, which 2 do you guys feel are the most worthwhile to keep?

1) KMW 2010
2) KMW 1980
3) Eternal 811
4) Triple Works 1220NI (low baller IH 634s)
