Anybody have a good accurate shot of the color of the 130s oxford grey flannel fabric from the last EFF? I'm looking at the Walts on sale and the color is quite dark (and it is described as medium - dark) compared to what I received. My pair of 120s oxford grey flannels from an earlier EFF also seems fairly light by comparison. Thanks.

This one: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0...le_Oxford_Grey_Fit_1024x1024.jpg?v=1449071410 looks pretty accurate to me. The one pair of walts labeled oxford grey does look a fair bit darker to me.

@Epaulet Vittorio sizing quesiton. My perfect fit is a Dartmouth 35 short in the sleeves and regular body length. Going off the pre-order chart it seems a 36 seems good for me without a short option. The 35 Vittorio with 22.5 sleeves and 15.5 inch shoulder seem too short and too narrow. Any help there?

Mike, if you'll field another sizing Q: Southwick 37, EP shirting Medium, LBM 36/46. Teba 37 or 38?

@applky for you, I'd say Teba 37 definitely.

@budapest12 yeah... we had a database refresh that wiped out nearly 20% of our online items, including every Walt trouser. I had to unearth some older photos to rebuild it. The sale pants are oxford grey.. they're all slight variants of the medium grey flannel that we all know.


@theh00d ah sorry, that was an individual item for a customer. He needed a matching trouser with special details so we hashed that item out for him. Should have taken it off of the site

@tv2177 we can absolutely do that. Just drop us an email. If you buy a 2-piece preorder and want the jacket & trouser in two different colors, it's no problem at all.

Have the Hertling EFFs been delivered? I think the orders were back in november.

@MSchapiro definitely, we got those right after Christmas. If you didn't receive them, let me know pronto

EFF green Rudy cords and Individualized shirt. Take note that my son cleaned up his Lego.


No spoiler, this is too sharp! @tricky

@kickstand

The Vittorio and the Dartmouth are pretty consistent in their overall fit, even if a few measurements are slightly different. I'd agree though.. do a 36R in the Cotton Vittorio. The sleeves are easy to take up, and the body can always come in a touch at the waist. Cotton will typically fit a bit more snug than wool because it won't flex as much during cutting.

Dumb question that I expect to be met with a scoff and a resounding dismissal, as it probably should: ever thought of making a round of combat boots on a trainer sole? A pair in blue, grey, or sand suede could be killer. Or at least that's what my brain is trying to convince me or at the moment.

@notwithit meant to write you back on this... I like this idea. Something along the lines of this: (without the douche-y burnishing)



It's certainly easy to do.. my factory could last the combat boot onto a Margom sole without a problem. Would lower the price a bit too, maybe to $275. But we'd lose the ability to resole them, and I know that's important for some guys. I'd love to hear the thoughts of anyone who wants to chime in.
