Hey Mike, any chance of seeing the Japanese Khaki chinos or something similar appear again? The colour/hue of that khaki is quite unique.

As previously Mike, any chance of them returning?

The Japanese khaki chinos have the best shade of khaki I've seen and I wear the hell out of mine. These and the gunmetal chinos should be staple items to have in stock year-round.

i myself prefer the british khaki over the japanese khaki. it's not as dressy but quite versatile and my most worn pair. I didn't like the salmon-ish hue of the japanese khaki in sunlight that's more visible in person, so I sold mine long ago.

Any plans to release the wool rivet chinos in other colors, say some "traditional" or work friendly colors such as gunsteel, gray, or navy.

Thanks!

Might have missed my ^^^ question. Just wanted to know if I should wait for new wool rivets to be released or purchase something else now.

Did some searching to see the shade of Japanese khaki people are talking about and found these pictures - god, I need some gunmetals in my rotation ASAP. Ship some Rivets down to Need Supply so I can figure out my size in person, haha.

Also, I'm pretty sure you've answered this before but I couldn't find it - what shoes are being worn here?

Rivet Chino Japanese Khaki Twill: $145
A new color for us in a very soft Japanese cotton. Kind of a richer, darker take on the usual khaki beige tone.

Will the Brixton boot be available in any other colors in the near future?

Mike-
Can you tell us more about the Grape Flannel.
I am intrigued.

Hopefully Ravello in 2013!

I dig all the Carmina makeups, but I am anxiously awaiting something simpler (not a wingtip man): captoe or brogued cap toe. You know you want to do this.

Mike-
Any chance you will be doing Cords in the Walt fit or have them as an option for Factory Finds?

Hear, hear.

Epaulet sewn by hand:

i like what NYR did with his laces here, but I'm wondering if people have recs for leather laces that are basically a replacement for the original laces that were on these shoes--I just cut one riding my bike.

Just took my factory find trousers in for hemming, and looking forward to rocking my two pairs, especially the olive check that I put some cuffs on. C'mon fall.

My Steinbecks arrived today and they are beautiful! God I wish it were cooler and I had my fall trousers back from the tailor. Though of my boots, they are the only ones sleek enough to work ok with my walt 120s.

My job requires me to be in and out of my car all day rain, snow or shine, so I really look forward to a good looking pair of boots that can handle this!

When I get my trousers back I will use my digital camera for some better pics, but for now, iphone pics will have to do:





And the line up so far for my first winter since carrying about footwear... Damn allen edmonds kenworth (or it was called kennelworth or kenmore or something)! That was pandoras box for me! Should have stuck with maddens from payless!



The midnight steinbecks sound really cool, but I am afraid they will be too dark. I do not want a boot that looks black. Plus I really want some of the balmorals and doubt that I can afford both.

Mike, can you elaborate at all on what leathers will be used on the next shipment of balmorals? I am definitely looking for something pretty safe and classic.

Anyone remember what the ETA is on the second round of factory finds?
