ENGINEERED GARMENTS FALL/WINTER 2020

[Symphony]

I’m selling my fall winter olive herringbone FA pants in size large. DM me if any of you were interested.

Anyone have any experience with having EG pieces tailored?

I picked up a herringbone cotton Bedford this season. I’m 6’2” and slim and actually ended up buying a small. It fits nicely but still has enough room to see the shape of the thing.

The sleeves are a bit short, but there’s a full inch of fabric inside which could be let down. Any do anything similar?

I did that once with an older Bedford - let the sleeves out about .75" Take it a tailor though and they'll let you know for sure what you can get away with.

With a cotton Bedford I imagine you’ll be able to see the original stitch marks but depending on fabric color/your fastidiousness that may not be too much of an issue.

Thank you!

Yes, I’ve had that issue with a cotton jacket before. The tailor tried to warn me, but I didn’t care too much. The visibility of the old stitch marks decreased over time and it all ended up good.

Thanks again!

Really unfortunate that Nepenthes uses UPS Ground to ship to Canada otherwise there are some good deals here.

Picked up a Madison parka for under $250 which feels like a steal. A bunch of sizes and colors are still available.

Nice. Which colour did you go for? I grabbed Black in the Bureau sale. They’ve made further reductions too ?
