those look awesome!

I think I am going to pull the trigger on a navy digi-camo pair

Pattern sounds cool, but I could't find any photos? Could you point me to a link?

They're in the Rivet Chino section.

Cargos. Forgive the rest of the outfit. Fit pic only. I LOVE the fit and finish. I can't wait to wear them.

Hmmm this might have sold me on the driggs. The rise doesn't look much lower than the walt here.

Wish I jumped on a pair of Walnuts now... Too bad they are sold out.

Driggs doesn't look as low rise as I expected them to be, maybe I'll try a pair.

How does the duck canvas breathe in the summer? I'm interested in a pair as a casual replacement to my RRL selvedge chinos

The Driggs became my favorite trouser instantly. I taper all of my Walt trousers to about the same measurements anyway. I can't really tell much of a difference in the way both wear.

The difference in rise between the chino and Walt/Rudy is pretty drastic, so most guys can feel the difference, but the Driggs definitely hits a perfect medium.

Duck canvas in general is one of my favorite year round fabrics. I find it breathes far better than most other mid-weight cotton fabrics I own during the summer. Once it softens up a bit, I think they're the most comfortable, but substantial pants I own.

I also highly recommend the UK Sanded Canvas as well. The khaki or butterscotch (a yellow/ish tone we have offered in the past) could easily serve as a good casual chino.

Got some MTO trousers and thought folks would like to see how the colors made-up. Shot a few quick ones before handing over to my tailor for hemming.

These are clearly a win, Don.

Agreed, they look great

Sure, it's here: http://epauletnewyork.com/products/rivet-chino-blue-digital-camo We're sold out at the moment, but we'll restock in a few weeks.

The streaky Italian denim intrigues me -- I think it would make up into a great dress jean. Is the material prewashed for shrinkage? Is it limited in amount? For what season(s) is the 11 oz. weight most appropriate? And relatedly, any ETA for the Fairfax jean?

When we made these OTR, they came washed, but these will not. The wash was simple, so just the same as doing it yourself. If you get a specific hem, go for 1" longer than you want to allow for shrinkage. They make us as a very cool dress jean. You see these in Italy all of the time. Still working on the Fairfax pattern, I'll let you guys know as soon as we have a sample to show.

Mike - Which Barbour jacket did you pick up?

I got the James Bond "Skyfall" jacket. It's cool - I wore it skeet shooting many times. Really works with the whole style.

Cargos. Forgive the rest of the outfit. Fit pic only. I LOVE the fit and finish. I can't wait to wear them.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Those came out awesome! Thanks for picking up the first pair of MTO Cargos!

How well do you guys think cargo pockets would work with the streaky Italian denim?

It could be done, but I think that cargo pockets work best with the cotton twill fabrics. They're very cool on tweed and flannel too - and we'll have plenty of options for that in the Fall.

Pardon my asking again but: Is there an OTR Driggs in Navy Duck on the horizon? What about other OTR fabrics for the Driggs?

Thanks!
