Hey guys!

Couro Cromo Trainers are going online in the next few hours. We do have extra open stock in all five colors. Sorry for the wait on that - had to make sure that all of the preorder folks were taken care of first.

I'll post them up here once they're live. I'll tell you more about the leather in a bit, but yes, it's absolutely fantastic. It not only looks ace when it's new, but you'll love how it ages and breaks in.

My new red broken twill shirt has arrived! While it won't fill the void in my heart from the loss of the old crimson red chambray, it is a pretty cool piece. Will be anxious to give it a proper try out.

Also, luckily for me I called and talked to Mike prior to ordering. I'm a pretty reliable large in most everything, but he was sure an XL would be a better fit for me, and the fit is spot on. No way I could get by with my usual large. Very glad to have sized up one!

Now, about that grey engineer shirt... And some more Rivets... :)

Nice! My red broken twill shirt will be coming in this week - looking forward to it! I sized up from my typical size small, so i'm hoping medium works well for me. Also waiting for the indigo sea canvas rivets to be re-stocked & will order those too :)

good call. You will be pleased. The color is super rich in person

+1 here - this is probably one of the more overused phrases on SF... but truly, the photos don't do the color/leather of the Saddle Couro Cromo justice. Rich color as ryden fan mentions, incredible depth... you can also just tell these trainers will break in beautifully - very happy I picked these up.

Haven't seen any of the other colors, but I imagine the other trainers made up in the Couro Cromo may be similarly awesome as well...

I just wish there was a navy tennis trainer on a white sole. Though I don't at the same time because I don't need more sneakers Haha.

Gents - posting this with Mike's blessing.

For those that don't know, I'm Jacob from American Trench. We made a trench coat, then fell into the accessories business (long story), especially socks, which our dear friends at Epaulet carry. Last year we made a bucket fedora hat out of left over trench coat material. That is to say we took a bucket fedora pattern and used $30 a yard water repellent cotton fabric instead of $3/yard cotton twill. It's quite dapper, and can hold back a rain storm (see video on the product page). It sold quite well (i.e. it sold out), so we made it again this year. Except there was some miscommunication with the factory and they made more than double the number they were supposed to. I got a lot of hats! So here's some special pricing for all of our friends at SF, just follow this link below. Regular price was $94.50, special price of $65 (includes shipping). It's not final sale, you aren't locked in, but it is a great price for a unique piece.

and now back to ogling the new sneakers! (that's what i'm doing anyway).
