are there any other colorways for the cotton twill workshirt besides the blue/brown? Really like the fabric and weight...not sure the color is really me though.

Did pick up the chambray at Context today. Told myself I was going to skip it this season as I have so many EG chambrays, but the fit in a medium was just too perfect (mediums are usually a little small, larges are sometimes too big or too long....so this season they fit a little big because the medium was perfect). Will probably sell a couple of my other ones that don't fit as perfect to make up for this one :)

Also, chambray is darker than the pics I've seen from EG. The pics on Context are accurate.

Also tried on the serge wool and denim Bedfords. Both really nice, liking the fit a lot this season. Denim definitely fits a little bigger than the wool, and that is some pretty heavy duty feeling denim, liked it better than I thought I would. Still hoping to get my hands on the herringbone wool Bedford at some point too.

So are the medium Bedfords a bit bigger in the chest this year? For the year or two, the medium Bedford is slightly too tight in the chest for me but the large is much too big in all other ways. Thanks.

^ good to know.

Similarly, if anyone has first hand experience with one of this year's Brooklines in Medium, I'd love to hear about it.

Can't say for sure as I can't fit into a medium Bedford (large or XL for me, depending upon fit)...but I would guess so as the other sizes seem to be just a bit more generous this year.

I'm sure someone will stock it in the States or Europe.

Japan tends to get things first.
