The NMWA cut is definitely a good classic length.

can we discuss the issue of jacket length.....

perhaps i've been seeing far too many designers style their jackets to be shorter the last few years and it's stunting my perception, but isn't this supposed to be the classic standard length of how a jacket should sit on men ?


This is also a long. At 6'3" it is needed.

Some quick 'n' dirty selfies of goodies from NMWA that just came in!



Pictures do not do this fabric justice. Absolutely beautiful in person. The fit is great on me as I've mentioned before, will be spot on after a trip to the tailor.



Very impressed with the casentino. It's a bit heavier than expected, which is a bonus (especially in Canada). Beautiful coat.

The glenplaid is a more pleasant color than I anticipated. I actually really like that.

Worth noting that the photos don't show the blue in the glenplaid very well. It pops more in real life.

Looks great. If I were you I might shorten the sleeves 0.5" to show a sliver more cuff but it's certainly not a dealbreaker.

Thanks. That's about as much sleeve as I like to show with SCs. I show a little more with suits.

What alterations did you have done to the guncheck? Nipped the waist a bit?

My local store, Coachman Clothiers (Knoxville, TN), still has a good selection of FW '15 Eidos on sale at 40-50% off including:

Lupo Polo in Tan, Chocolate and Burgundy
Wafle Knit polo in Navy, White, Green
Cable Knit Belted Cardigan in Navy
Tenero Sportcoat in Navy and a Marled Grey/Burgundy weave
Raglan Sleeved Overcoat in Grey and Green HBone (not sure of model name)
Eidos x Kimber Jodhpur and X tie loafer in snuff suede, Chukka boot in green suede

They'll happily take phone orders. Call (865) 690-5805 and ask for Bryce, Jeff or Todd.

**Note: I don't work there nor am I specifically affiliated with them. They're good friends who run a great store and I know many of you may still be looking for some of these items. Just trying to help the cause.**

@NickPollica Is there any allowance to let out the chest of the NMWA cut jackets? Thanks
