Have you seen it in person?

It's not that great TBH though the wool is very light, which is nice.

I was not a fan of the overall cut and color, otherwise.

edit:
There is a lack of texture to the jacket, which IMO should be present in such a plain charcoal color

No, I haven't not seen it in person.
I have too many variations of navy blazers and thought that a charcoal blazer would be nice addition as a spring/summer blazer.
I saw small charcoal andover in odin's website a few weeks ago and waited too long on it. not there anymore :brick:
Any help finding either jacket would be much appreciated!

have a feeling he means "sale time" in general, throughout the industry. Thinking about stopping into Nepenthes today myself to see what's what.

Did my copping at full retail this season and it #feelsgoodman

Out of interest, what is the difference in fit between the Bedford and the Baker?


The Bedford is a boxy and shorter length.
The Baker is a more tailored fit and a bit longer.

I'm seeking a Large Baker in Navy Broken Twill should anyone come across one. I've done some poking around w/ no luck but I'm not a dedicated EG shopper, so I'm sure I've missed some spots. Any info, in thread or by PM, is appreciated.

Thanks Gary. Was all set to go with the navy Bedford but changed my mind at the last minute and decided to push myself a little so went with with the anchor Baker. Have a funny feeling the Bedford will fit me a lot better but we'll see. Fingers crossed.

Nitty Gritty Still have one http://www.nittygrittystore.com/men/outerwear/baker-jacket-broken-twill. I'm sure I seen one on sale when I was looking around yesterday but I guess Nitty Gritty's sale must start soon anyway.

While I'm here, Has anyone seen the tropical wool cinch pants in a 36? I can only find them in a 34 which may work but I reckon will be just too small.
