Went by the Smith St store to get some shorts and a shirt today. The wife got a pair of shoes, and we introduced my three week old son to the wonderful Epaulet folks. With the shoes my mother bought, and the belt I gave my father, almost every adult member of my family has at least one item from Epaulet. My sister will be in town at some point, that will probably make it a full sweep. The entire crew at Epaulet was helpful and awesome as always.

The scarves look awesome, especially the one in the lower left image.

Put me down for fairisle blazer/varsity/jacket (would not be able to kop Junya so a worthy alternative), scarf, gloves and socks...yup no sweater.

Another question:

I am thinking about ordering this shoe.

I was wondering if the sizing advice applies only to crepe sole style shoes because for some reason I recall hearing that Yuketen boat shoes with rubber sole are TTS. I may be confusing this with another brand

This is why I am torn between 9 or 9.5. Since I am in Canada...really trying to avoid returning as well. My sizes for reference are:

Sperry 10: fit well, but just slightly loose on the length, not unwearble or anything
McNairy Saddles 9.5: Fit is same as above
Clarks DB 9.5D: Same as above
Common Projects 9: Perfect
LANVIN 9: Perfect
Alden Indy 405 9D: Don't own them yet, but remember trying them and they fit pretty good. Trubalance D must be massively wide since my foot width is just over D.
Red Wing Classic Moc Toe boot: I can fit 8.5E or 9E.

I've seen your site as well as your products. I can say that they look good. I like the Mens Buttondown Collar Forest Madras Shirt. It looks great.

Absolutely. They'll feel stiffer right after drying, but more broken in after you wear it a bit.

Actually, I can probably set up the navy sportcoat for a Short & Long special order run sometime in the next few weeks. I'll work to get the measurement differences so that I can post up the full specs.

For the medium grey, I'm out of nearly all the fabric, so this next run of 24 medium coats is going to most likely be the last one.

But, after we get the short & long sizing specs, it will probably be possible for us to run that off in the charcoal and navy suits that we'll do in early November.

You got it - we can definitely make that happen

Thank you Max! Always a pleasure to see you and the family.

Haha cool, I wish that we had a fairisle sportcoat in the works. I'm afraid Junya's probably going to be only game in town on that one for Fall.

For the Yuketens, most of the customers have gone down a half size. These shoes fit TTS is the beginning, but they definitely stretch out significantly with wear. But it depends on the shape of your foot and how closely you prefer shoes to fit.

Given your other sizing, I think that the 9.5D is going to be a good fit. Chances are it may be a little large, but that's always better than too small. I'd recommend getting that size.

And I can tell you that owing and wearing these shoes will most likely mean that you'll never wear a pair of Sperry Top-Siders again. When you've felt a proper handsewn on your feet, there's no going back

Just stopped by the Orchard shop and walked out with the printed belt. No money for food now. Epaulet diet plan is working.

5 pairs of chinos, with a pair of the shorts on the way- dangerous and looking forward to more. Just ordered the shorts and noticed that although I am registered, when I pay with PayPal it doesn't keep my order history in my Epaulet account. does this matter at all?

As for the new suit jackets, hitched single vent? The double vent is fine and all but I feel beholded to the single vent. Too Americana?

Saving up for the new Fall drops. Keep up the good work Epaulet!

For shoes with the moccasin constructions, are they repairable/resole-able?
