anyone looking for a 42, these are on their way back; in the end, I think I would've had to size down yet another size. Just couldn't hack the heels popping out quite so easily.

What’s your brannock size? I’m a 10E and wondering if these would work.

@gdl203 or @conceptual 4est, how would you compare the weight/breathability of the heavyweight linen used for the Ikiji big pocket jacket to the Leder mismatched pocket jacket from a few seasons back? thanks!

thank god! I just sent back my 43s in hope for a 42!

I measure about a 9.5-9.75D and the 43 with an insole fit with slippage, no insole it was far too big.

I took way too long to order this sweater, but it’s a dustier color in person. Also first time taking shots indoors so excuse the puppy kennel.

Oh and @CPAJay1221 I had this coat altered around the chest and downward and it worked out pretty well as it was one size too big, as much as I like volume it was wearing me. Nothing major but just a few tweaks to make it less like I was wearing a blanket with buttons.

There are just a couple days left in the sale and I think this Kimber jacket is being criminally slept on. I missed it when it dropped as well but Im into this as an elevated casual piece. Really is spring/summer weight as well so you won’t even have to pack it up as soon as you get it like the other sale items. GRP bubble knit as well. View attachment 1571539 View attachment 1571540

Really nice! What size are you wearing? and what size are you in menswear? If I may ask. Im trying to decide between L and XL.

I am wearing an M and usually wear a 40/50 jacket and am between M/L depending on the company. I could very easily have gone up to an L in the Kimber jacket, would have probably at least thought about exchanging if it wasn’t final sale. Happy with the fit as is, though.

Hey guys, head's up I just sent you an email about trying to adjust my pre-order size on the IM relaxed jacket (after hearing Greg's sizing advice on today's drop video) before you ship it out if at all possible. Thanks!

That is helpful. Thanks!

same for me. but i can see new items on specific makers’ pages.
Gotta go to the makers instead of "What's New"

99% sure I just fixed this, but might take the server a few minutes to refresh everything.

@gdl203 or @conceptual 4est, how would you compare the weight/breathability of the heavyweight linen used for the Ikiji big pocket jacket to the Leder mismatched pocket jacket from a few seasons back? thanks!


It's a notch or two lighter weight than that Leder one, which was probably some of the heaviest linen we've stocked. That Leder one felt like full blown outerwear, whereas this is somewhere in jacket/shacket territory.

Btw I'm digging Kyle's comment as part of the copy on each product page

Glad you like it! I think we'll keep doing this going forward, as it really allows us to say what we like about each piece in a more personal way. This week you'll see Greg's thoughts on G. Inglese and Kenshawn's on Inis Meain.

That looks great! Love the pattern and color on that.

I dropped mine off at the tailor today. Going to get the body taken in about an inch and a half and the sleeves shortened a bit. I think it will be a much cleaner look. It will be about a month until I get it back, but I’ll post the after photos. Thankfully, I can probably get away with wearing it into early May with our cold Michigan early spring weather.
