^ awesome, fits you great


Thanks. I've actually been kind of obsessing over the idea of going back and getting a size M jacket. The small fits great everywhere in the conventional sense, but isn't quite as slouchy as I would like.

I don't think they pay attention to the branding because its stamped on the fabric rolls straight outta production. The patterns probably aren't cut in any specific way either. Usually uniform serge is lined so this issue is not that common. I love my uniform serge bedford, its warm but still breathes better than my whipcord cotton bedford surprisingly.


Yeah I see what you're saying. The only reason I even brought it up was that I had seen a few stockist photos that had a visible watermark when cuffed, which led me to believe it might be an intentional detail.

OK first set of fit pics finally! Sorry for the delay. Both these looks were for similar occasions - semi-formal - casual / dress.

Pic 1: Shawl Collar Shirt Jacket / Olive + USN Pant / Indigo / Denim + Flannel Tie / Tan, Navy, White [FW11] + Shirt [Not from EG]
Pic 2: Lansdown Jacket / 8W Cord / Olive + Tab Collar Shirt / Black Floral / Flannel + USN Pant / Indigo / Denim
Pic 3: As above but closer up to show floral shirt details...

I did get more items from Gary but waiting on more as well. I'll take more pics real soon.

What's the difference? I just picked up the olive one and it's about a size bigger than the SS12 Dayton.


Yeah the olive one is a size bigger, the grey one is basically the same as the SS version. At least the one i got is..
What size did you get?

Got mine in XS. It fits the same as the SS12 lace Dayton in S. Now I'm tempted to pick up the grey one as well.

Has anyone out there purchased a pair of E1 pants yet? Im curious as to which size will fit a W32? Im finding it hard to believe that Small fits a W32... or am i wrong? Thanks for the advice in advance...

Knight, thinking you need to size up on that cord landsdown.
I think you're right. However i do have a Medium in the Herringbone Wool from Fw11 and it was quite big.

Knight,

Love the cord landsdown. I'm looking for the exact same jacket. Haven't found anyone willing to ship to EU yet though.
What size is the jacket and do you care to share your measurements? What's the fit like compared to bedfords in the same size?
I probably agree on sizing up, it's on the verge imo.

Thanks

Anyone tried the denim jacket? Any comments on the sizing? It looks pretty small & short to me.
