Engineered Garments Fall / Winter 2013

[Shingles]



The classic shirt is a camp shirt with long sleeves.. I have one from 09 I think in a gray flannel plaid. Super comfy but def. short and boxy. One is enough for me.

Yes. I have a plaid as well, black, green, red tartan like from this season. I like wearing it unbuttoned above a printed white t-shirt. But would most like to wear it as an over shirt, but don't really know how to do that since it's plaid. I think it works better the other way around, with for example a plain grey classic shirt above a patterned shirt (as you would wear a CPO). Someone mentioned wearing it above a chambray work shirt, haven't tried that out but suspecting it might be a little odd. Any ideas? How do you wear yours?

^^^since mine is a cotton flannel I wear it over gray black or white tShirts. I looked at the red wool classic shirt the other day at bellerose here in Paris--IMO that cut works best as a regular shirt rather than an over shirt, mostly because the camp collar needs to lie flat


I do have a CPO in the gray herringbone wool that I wear over lonsleeve Ts or over OCBDs as a sports coats substutute.

Will post fit pic when I get a chance. Would anybody be interested in doing a MTO group buy of trickers that are made in the same makeup as the EG x Mcnairy longwing mismatched shoes that were released a couple years back? I think they will be pretty expensive, but the added benefit that they will be MTO so we can add tweaks here and there. I was thinking of doing the same exact makeup, but with dainite sole instead of the double-leather sole, but am open to opinions. Thanks!

Although not truly pertaining to FW13, this discussion has prompted me to sell a pair of hardly worn EG x McNairy Longwings in brown. I bought them in a US12 wishfully thinking that they would fit, but after 3 years of shoe care and <10 wears, I have decided to part with them as unfortunately, my wishful thinking hasn't made my feet any smaller.

I've put them up on the marketplace here http://www.styleforum.net/t/376353/...-mark-mcnairy-longwing-brogue-brown-size-12us and will put them on ebay in the coming days.

It would be nice for these puppies to go to a new home where they will be loved and worn, rather than just loved and admired.

How are you getting free shipping to go through?

Normal checkout procedures, it just lists free shipping as the only shipping option

I don't seem to be able to get free shipping either

Sweet, too bad the shipping costs kill the deal for me in the US :/

Anyone ever had the sleeves shortened on a workshirt? Seems like it would be pretty easy for a competent tailor to do from the cuff since there isn't even really a gaunlet. I guess it would get closer to the elbow patche but I don't think .5 - .75 of an inch would be noticeable.

Got shipping confirmation this morning
Maybe they feel bad I have to pay $30-$50 shipping whenever I buy something from overseas

Inventory are good operators. They use Fedex to ship overseas, so it's always prompt turnaround time with tracking included. I was amazed that one time they magically squeezed a AW Windbreaker & thick Ripstop Field Jacket into a medium size Fedex box!

Ok. I think it was Inventory that styled the plain grey classic shirt as an over shirt, I can't find the photos but it worked out really good. It's more difficult to do with the plaid version though, imo.

I like that they are doing elbow patches!



Another FW14 lookbook sneak preview. From Gareth from The Bureau.

Bureau has first s/s delivery up. I know s/s shows up relatively early every year, but I still feel ridiculous buying hawaiian print short sleeves in early January.

 

[Phil McCrackin]

buying a Hawaiian shirt any month , is ridiculous , to me ..
unless for fancy dress ..

I'll second that. Just ordered a couple of workaday BDs in their sale. Great communication and super fast shipping.

Unfortunately had to pay $45 for the shipping to oz though.
