So I came home and forced myself into it tonight. It is comfortable. Well made. Warm. I just need to figure out how to style it in a way that works for me.

I find them pretty versatile for causal looks, but I like wearing them super casual with t-shirts, reigning champ sweats and white kicks.

Thanks for this response, tricky. I think I previously tried to make it less casual than it is. I don't own sweat pants, but t-shirt and 5 year old worn in denim looks right for once.

Alright, Epaulet, you win. You're back to a 100% hit rate.

Got my charcoal flannel Gables delivered - need to get them hemmed. Not sure if I'm onboard with the high-waisted fit yet but wanted to try it out.

@epaulet - what is the shirt collar on the blue shirt you're wearing in the Hertling EFF photos?

I'm confused: why would you do that cotton fleece cardigan without buttons?

 

[slows2k]

Count me in for that as well, Navy and heather grey would be the perfect lineup. I MUCH prefer the shawl collar to the collars on the bombers a bit back, and with where I work, they would basically be a wear-every-day piece for me. My vote also goes to no buttons on the pockets, and a chest pocket if you can do it (not a deal breaker).

Just no buttons on the pockets.

I'd probably be into the shawl sweat cardigan if the grey is more of a heather charcoal than a medium or light grey. No strong feelings on buttons or pockets.

That looks like the curved spread or curved cutaway collar that is offered through Individual Shirts!

If i'm a 10.5 in the sport trainers, what size would I be in the new chelsea boots?

Any idea if you are going to get any of the Chromexcel jeans belts you used to carry back in stock? I bought a couple a few years ago and I wanted to get some new ones for me, and a few for my sons.

I'll go +2 to that. Wear mine almost daily, would love to have one a touch wider also. 1.5" please!

Any wider wouldn't fit Driggs belt loops. Would fit all others though. And Driggs is bye bye, so might not be a big issue.


+3 love my EP casual belt, should get a few more really. Only potential problem from a retailer point of view is, there is hundreds of guys making nice leather goods/belts now for the $100 ish range MTO.


I still love my EP belt for $95 however.

Hey Mike, is there ever a chance of you doing a sort of sneaker EFF? Using leathers that only have enough left for one or two units? I don't know how feasible it is but it would be really cool.

Last night I received the copper pique, gray wool/cash, and the brushed walnut (Gables4life). All three feel really great and I'm sure will be excellent staples. Also, I'm wearing the gray flannella today. At least, I think that's what it is. I ordered the super 130s oxford gray, but as far as I can tell I got the flanella instead. It feels lighter than a real flannel I think, and in close up pictures it looks like the flanella. Anyways, it's a fantastic material and probably more useful for me in the bay area because of the lighter weight. It probably holds a crease better than a heavier flannel. Out of the new summer fabrics, my favorite color is the green linen. I'd definitely get that color if it were not pure linen. @Epaulet if you can get your hands on a cotton linen blend like that for spring, I don't think I'd be able to resist.

Also pictured is the EP Alt Wien in walkabout. It's still wet out here on the ground.
