Is that a zipper on the front pocket on the mainline fatigues?

Gary, nice buy. I am a bit shocked at how expensive the CPO's are this year, but I know that fabric isn't cheap so I guess thats what has driven them to go higher.

Thank you! Yes, it is expensive but a very time consuming piece to put together and very expensive fabric indeed.

Gary, can you comment on the difference in feel between the uniform serge and herringbone wool? I'm really wanting a FW Bedford, but not sure which fabric I'd like more.

The Wool Serge will be lighter and more wearable inside as well as an outside jacket in the fall. The Herringingbone will be loftier and not a great indoor jacket. Hope this helps.

Gary, when will your stock be available? How's the fit on the USN pants? I'll probably get a pants this time, it's missing in my EG collection.

Especially great selection this season Gary. Going to have a tough time choosing from the numerous items on the list.

Nice pattern on the F3A0790 / Western Shirt / Black Printed Floral / Paisley Corduroy $255.00 S > L


This is a must have: F3A0896 / Work Shirt / Navy Heathered Cotton Oxford $230.00 XS > XL


Great pattern on this one too: F3A0917 / Miners Shirt / Grey/Navy Heavy Twill Plaid $205.00 XS > XL


A staple: F3D0278 / CPO Shirt / Grey All Wool Herringbone $505.00 S > L


Another staple: F3D0378 / Bedford Jacket / Grey All Wool Herringbone $530.00 XS > XL

Might have to spring this one too: F3D0571 / Field Shirt Jacket / Grey 12oz All Wool Flannel $495.00


The front left pocket zipper on this is a good detail, great to fight against pickpockets: F3F0791 / Fatigue Pant / Olive Reverse Sateen $205.00 28 > 36


The windowpane pattern overall is really good.

F3D0857 / LDT Jacket / Grey Wool Herringbone Windowpane


F3C0357 / LDT Vest / Grey Wool Herringbone Windowpane


F3F0257 / Irving Pant / Grey Wool Herringbone Windowpane

F3A0917 / Miners Shirt / Grey/Navy Heavy Twill Plaid $205.00 XS > XL


I love this fabric- it reminds me so much of a traditional poncho, and I love the prints typically found on those (My dog's name is even Poncho...), so I'm having a hard time resisting the Button Shawl from look Z: .

That Heavy Twill Plaid is also available in a Red/Navy and Black/Blue, and there are so many fabrics available for the Button Shawl beyond that.

ANYWAY, since the .jp EG site's lookbook doesn't have the names of the items styled, feel free to shoot me a PM if you can't seem to identify a piece you've seen so far or if you're just wondering what what fabrics your favorite piece comes in.

Yeah, I'm really loving the combo of that fabric and the miner shirt design, especially with the fabrics change of direction on the pockets. This may be my must-have of the season.

Just as FW13 starts to pop up...

SS14 is mentioned:

crazy!

the navy work shirt and plaid miners shirts are definitely looking nice, and will be on the list. digging the olive fatigue pants w/ zipper as well.

What is the fabric on the bedford in look S, looks a little heavier than the serge wool? Thanks!

Thanks! It looks great. Do you know whether there will be any bedfords in a knit material this year?

Yo Steven,
Can you share all the cpo color/material options for the season? (button shawls too if possible)

Like the Grey Jersey Knit from last season? Not seeing any indication of one judging from the fabrics listed...

PMs would be appreciated if possible guys- Just so we can keep this thread as an open discussion of the collection. The last thing we want is to hog the thread, especially considering the other retailers haven't posted any of their buys yet. Thanks!
