Thanks! they're Levi's 511 cords.

I have $497 worth of stuff sitting in my cart on epauletshop.com. It's been a while since I've bought anything. Maybe I should just man up and do it?

2 Shirts(charcoal flannel and white spread collar), Pewter tweed trousers, and the Navy bowtie. Gahhhh so tempting!

^ Are you a size 30, TKJTG? If so, you should man up and buy everything except the pewter tweed trousers. I need to start buying **** from Mike again.

Naw, 32. Otherwise I'd be all over your rivet chinos.

Congrats Mike!

Now, when are we going to see some new items online with a sneak peek here first of course

Thank you sir! Got new merch going online shortly, and I'll link it all up here first. This Gant Rugger parka is especially tight. I'll post some preview pics later today.

Very cool, I love those pants. The purple reinforcement was Staple's idea - they wanted a small flash of color when it's cuffed. It looks good when you wear it, it's pretty subtle. They're great trousers with brown boots - especially suede ones.

Oh, and sizing question: if an Epaulet small fits me perfectly, what would I be in one of the Ashland shirts?

It's not too heavy, it's some of the lightest flannel that I've felt. You could easily wear in in 60's-70's temps. Going to be too hot for the Summertime though.

And good question on Ashland - you'd be either an XS or a Small. If the Epaulet Small is pretty slim on you, then I'd recommend an Ashland Small too - it's not much bigger.

Unfortunately, they don't make one at that price. Wish that they did. We're working on another brown leather piece for the Fall which will fall in-between those two prices, but be absolutely, postively, ridiculously good quality. And a perfect cut. It's going to be a monster.

Gave my Smiths a soak last night to get rid of any shrinkage -- minor though it might be. There was a ton of indigo loss in the tub, a real cool teal color. After drying they're not stiff as a board. I'm looking forward to trying them back on and breaking them in.

Awesome, very cool! Just as a heads-up, some customers have experienced a lot of stretching when they soak the jeans. For a raw denim, it's pretty soft, so the long soak really relaxes it. If you do a warm wash for the next time, they'll shrink up to about normal size.

Thanks for the heads up. Out of curiosity, did they soak and wear until dry? Or were they dried and then worn?

Call me crazy, but is it possible that some of the older denim was unsanforized? I picked up an old pair of Smiths a while ago that were slightly too big for me, so I tried hotsoaking/drying them yesterday. The inseam shrank from 35" to 31", and the waist went from ~31" to 28".

Do you guys plan on having linen/cotton sportscoats for the spring/summer time?

You guys need to stop being such hipsters. I guess it's a Brooklyn thing. That hair is sweet.

Please post that GANT parka, I need it in my life!
