Thanks guys - always love the feedback on here! Well, I'm definitely open to it - and if the price differential is small, then we can easily do it. But, given the 9.5" inseam, would you be interested in cuffing them?

Thanks for the heads up. Was looking out for the Ashland shirts, and had no idea they were made by Gitman Bros. Jumped on the blue grey oxford, it looks really really nice.

No, it's a good call all around. I love the seam taping, and hopefully we can swing it. Even if you don't cuff, it's a nice detail to have on the inside. I'll see what we can do

Hey guys, Some of you may have seen these yesterday, but we got our big delivery of Ashland by Epaulet shirts in! These are made exclusively for us by Gitman Brothers in Pennsylvania. I've been a long-standing fan of Gitman's single-needle tailoring. Back in the day I used to buy their product for Saks Fifth Avenue. Gitman has access to incredible European fabrics and we started this capsule collection to cut some of these excellent cloths into a polished, slim fit piece for our customers. The overall fit is a slightly tweaked variant of the Gitman Vintage cut - with the most notable change being light darts in the lower back. All of the shirts have genuine mother-of-pearl buttons. Gitman sizing and scaling runs differently than Epaulet shirting. If you already own a Gitman Vintage piece, you can expect the fit to be very similar overall. If you're new to Gitman, try matching up the measurements to see if the fit will work for you, and feel free to PM me if you need any sizing advice.

I'm definitely for the seam taping...I almost always cuff shorts and would love the detail either way...at 9.5" I could probably swing one cuff. Very excited about these. What colors are you producing?

Mike, have you ever contemplated doing polo shirts? With shorts on the website for about a year now, I figured this may of crossed your mind.

Thanks!

This is a great idea. Perhaps something with a tipped collar. Who knows? I'm sure Mike et al would come up with some great designs.
