Finally, the Bedfords arrived today and I have sent out to those who returned my pm.
I was able to get smalls and had some people on the list for them. I also ordered the remainder of there stock which comprised some more smalls and mediums. If I don't hear back from those of you who I contacted today, I will consider that you are not interested in purchasing one. I do appreciate everyones patience. Thank you!

Smalls, speak of the devil. Is the grey herringbone bedford (as pictured on page 1 of this thread) the same fabric as the grey herringbone norfolk and waistcoat from this season ?

Also, is it lined with thinsulate?

Thanks (and thanks too for the lookbook, Gary).

just picked up the small bedford from gary. was wrestling with the idea of the bedford because the norfolk looks so damn sassy, but seeing i already have a spring norfolk, i could use a new style of coat, very excited.

click on the norfolk, and click the dropdown button, you can get an XS. price is steep, and with proxy's you're taking a hit, but it's there.

Did you try giving these guys a call to see if they're carrying XS? Angelo @ EG told me that they make XS for anyone that orders it, and from what I can recall, Barney's and Hejfina both do. Maybe one of the below do too? If they don't, maybe an S can work and you can just layer underneath with maybe a vest or thick sweater. Norfolk Jacket - Wool H. Bone Grey Active Endeavors – Chicago, IL August – Oakland, CA Boutique U & I – Montreal Canada Hollander & Lexar – Boeurm Hill Brooklyn, NY Legion – LA, CA Tailored by Bastille - Salt Lake City, UT

Due to a lack of real world photos in this thread here's a pic of the Field Jacket (@ Odin). Didn't pick it up cuz it's a little too warm for SF weather and I've already picked up a khaki piece for the Fall:

I asked them this on Monday, but I have not heard back yet. It would be odd that they wouldn't.

Do they ship to the U.S.? It doesn't seem like they do.
In other news, we are not fans of Active Endeavors at this time.
For now anyways... I'm going to follow-up with them [read: harass them
