will you be posting your FWK buy as well?
would help if you could also post the sizes available too!


as far as I can tell we've got 30-36, S-XL across the board on styles, though some things are already being bought up by locals. can check on a given size for you for any item if you'd like!

FWK will be a little longer, but once I have it on the site I'll pop an update on here for sure. Some reaaaallly cool stuff in there - floral scarf-weight labcoat, if only they made it in a men's medium!

My top picks here are the Java Cloth Leisure Jacket and the Round Collar Shirt - I have a pair of cinch pants from last year in Java and it's the most amazing summer fabric. the leisure jacket is a great fit with the cloth, it appears to be boxy but drapes nicely under the arms when worn. I was really skeptical about that thing before I tried it on, now it's my favorite jacket in the house

The Round Collar shirt is a strange design, but the dobby fabric is sooooo good. I'd buy it in a tank top if they didn't offer anything else. the color and pattern is super unique. It's an expensive piece, but I don't think anyone could replicate it.

I believe this is everything for EG for Summer - we've got FWK in process as well, just as many styles, and our thermometers are finally hitting 60 so we might just have a spring season on our hands! Within the FWK boxes are some scarves as well - you've seen the summer scarves before, so just let me know if you have a fabric in mind and I can see if we've got it for you.

As always, PM or email me with questions about sizing, whatever else you'd like, or post on here / the affiliate thread (which I'll be jumpstarting now that we're getting fresh spring arrivals in)


Stopped by @Portland Dry Goods yesterday while in Portland for work. A massive EG buy for the spring. It was amazing checking out everything in person.

Dustin, please know that your efforts here are appreciated. I picked up the Gray Twill Field shirt based on your post the other day!

If you are in New England, make a point to check out PDG. Portland's a great city to visit and PDG kicks ass.

Quick update on the Cinch Pant vs Willy Post Pant this season.

Earlier I had posted about the Cinch Pants being way too slim compared to SS16 and earlier—to the point where I could barely bend my knees. I'm happy to report that the Willy Post Pant doesn't have this issue.

While both pants are slim on the calf, the Willy Post Pant has a larger top black and more fabric around the knee giving me full freedom of movement.

These shots from Nepenthes Japan do a good job illustrating what I'm talking about:

I've never tried EG pants before. Can the cuffs on the Cinch Pant or Will Post Pant be let out to add some length? If so, about how many inches would be gained?
Thanks.

How is the fit on the Ghurka Short this season? Last season they had slightly widened and shortened them from previous seasons. Are they unchanged from SS16?
