Hey Mike, do you guys plan on making the cumberland camp moc in a chukka style for the Fall? I'm looking to replace my crappy Eastland Senecas.

Still waiting on them from LA, but I'm hoping that we have them by the end of next week or so. They'll go up immediately after they arrive.

Thanks,

Yup, I'd definitely do the 32 and not the 31. The thighs should be a good fit, and most customers actually prefer shorts to fit a bit looser than trousers.

No, I don't have that size planned, but we will have a couple of higher lacing styles for the Fall. Finalizing that now.

Hey guys,

We expect to get a restock of the Super 120's Southwick for Michael Kuhle blazer within the next 2 weeks or so.

We're going to restock the Medium Grey one, and we'll offer a matching jacket for these Midnight Blue trousers:

With wedding season in full swing, we've got people coming by our NYC shops every day on the hunt for suits. I think that the incoming stock is going to move really fast. I want to make sure that any SF members - especially guys who already own the matching pants - have a shot to get the jackets if they're interested.

If you want to be put on the waiting list, then please drop me a PM with your full name, your email address, and your phone number. Once the jackets arrive, we'll contact you before putting them out for general sale. There's no commitment or deposit required.

Mike,

Maybe I'm being dense but does this mean you aren't restocking the current navy jacket?

Thanks

Oh no, we're definitely getting the Navy hopsack jacket too. We'll have decent stock on that, but anyone can feel to PM me for a reservation.

It's just that the Super 120's suits are pretty limited in production (we're only getting about 24 pcs per color), and I've got quite a few in-store customers on a waiting list. We got a lot of local press for it, so a bunch of guys are planning to wear it in August as their wedding suit. I just want to ensure that any SF members who are really interested in the suiting sportcoats get their shot at it.

Hi Mike,

Is it just me, or do the canvas rivet chinos drape differently from the "regular" ones? I'm trying to decide what my next pair of rivet chinos to pick up should be. I'm getting the feeling that the canvas ones are a bit stiffer, but can't tell whether or not that's due to them being new.

Well, every different variety of cotton is going to drape and wear a little differently. But, with a little bit of wear, the canvas will look and drape pretty close to the other cottons that we use. Like denim, the canvas is a little stiff and starchy before its first wash, but you can expect it's going to break in with wear.

And, on a totally unrelated note, I was going through the digital image folders on our store computer and I came across this. We're going to carry all four of these fairisle scarves in the fall. And fairisle sweaters. And some other fairisle suprises. The's wool's gorgeous, and they're knit in Ireland.

Hey Mike,

Would you say that giving the canvas chinos a cold wash and a hang dry will soften them up a bit?

Fairisle scarves look great as well -- can't wait to pick up a pair come autumn!
