All this GRP talk has me excited to visit their store next week in Florence

Haven't had to wash mine yet but the merino seems very sturdy, seems like it would be fine on a delicate cycle with woolite (maybe throw it in one of those mash bags if you have a top load).

That's all the enablement I need. Assume you got the size 3?

I completely forgot about my Valstar preorders…and now I CANNOT wait to receive them

Yep, got the 3. I'm 5'6", around a 37" chest.

@gdl203 what are you guys teasing on instagram for this week? Purple velour clint jacket? Chinchilla KS traveller?

 

[smittycl]

Frank Leder shirt in the wild. Got back from post-work bike ride and wifey said "we are going to the wine bar...now."

 

[hendrix]

that's a beauty

Glad I bought the ivory Chamula fisherman sweater first, because it instantly made me buy the dark gold one as well... which was still in stock, but the ivory wasn't. It's such a great chunky, soft, full sweater. Absolutely amazing.

Has anyone ever done an international return to NMWA by the global-e returns portal? Trying to get an idea of the cost. Cheers.

Cord vest and shacket for me. How about you?

Congratulations again to No Man for 10 years - what a milestone!

We have more to drop tomorrow alongside those capsule pieces, and first up is Kaptain Sunshine, a maker particularly dear to me.

Silhouettes continue to be large but balanced, and fabrics and finish are top-notch as always.



Hard not to kick things off with the Traveler, and this season's is in double-faced melton. Super fine wool, mid-weight, and soft as hell. In recent years a few people have tried to make their own but nothing tops the original!

Top one is navy with black reverse side, and the lower is navy with a large chocolate brown windowpane and blatchwatch inner. Nicely chosen and the reverse complements it well when worn either open or closed.



Our other full-length coat is the Walker, in the perfect burnt orange. (OGs will call this walnut.) I fell in love with this as quickly as I fell in love with my Traveller in the same color (but different fabric). The wool on this is physically very heavy but dense, like a gabardine, so it isn't stiff like the Traveller and flows amazingly with all of that heft behind it. One of my two favorite pieces of the collection.



My other favorite piece is this Barbour-alike, which, and no shade on the original, is so, SO much nicer than it has any right to be. This feels and looks like a very luxurious alternative, but don't get me wrong, it's tough too. Cotton gab outer, soft and dense wool lining, great details and hardware - just everything we expect from KS.




Speaking of outdoing by the original, some primo Champion-reverse-weave-alikes. Emerald green is my pick here but both are good with jeans or something casual like that IMO.



Their Supima is always superlative, so it's nice to be able to stock something like this white tee. The cut fights right in with these roomier shapes as well, so it's a more natural pairing with something like KS or Document than like your typical white tee.



Lots of gabardines this season, and this wool and cotton one is great for these side-tabs. Hefty, hold a nice crease, and with a beautiful drape they caught my eye right away on the rack.



As did these superfine wool doublecloth pleated joints. This is the kind of flow and luxurious wool that makes you do a double-take.

For Doppia we have our first delivery, and while I'll skip the special 10th anniversary styles so those can remain a surprise, I'll cover the rest here.



Get your Wes Anderson on with this killer suit separates set-up in lustrous corduroy.



Aalviero knit jacket is back (and much appreciated) and we've got camel and navy to cover all of the bases.



There's a new wool polo in a skipper style. I think they really nailed the collar size and placement, as well as the width and design of the placket here. Just all around very nice looking.



Gotta love the Aasti chore jacket in wool here. We love chore coats, we love shadow plaid, we really love this. It's like the Vince McMahon falling out of his chair meme: Chore coat...Italian made...shadow plaid...wool



Lastly, another new style that feels like such a no brainer - quilted westerns! What a sick overshirt or shacket for the season. And two great plaids with complementary liners. These are going to go fast hint hint

@conceptual 4est - Are you wearing your normal size in the Barbour-like coat?

Surely this makes it to EU store, right?
