Thanks, Beatle. I emailed Kent about it. The fabric doesn't show on the website, but hopefully it's still around.

It is. It's one of the base level A fabrics. Just saw it as an option in May.

This one may work too http://www.kentwang.com/suits/nailhead-navy-jacket.html

I know prob best to just contact Kent but has the brown herringbone ever been restocked in size 38? Looks like a good odd jacket to have.

Kent, ever thought about making your ties in a shorter length? At 5'7.5", my navy grenadine is just too long (although I like it a lot). Maybe a 53" version to add to the 57" / and 62" options?

Regretfully, my mom purchased the wrong size polo for me as a gift. I wear a Medium, but she ordered a small. I didn't even think to check the tag before laundering it. (A silly mistake.) When I tried it on I noticed the error. So...it is now listed on B&S for any interested.

Anyone have any info on sizing for Kent Wang's shoes? It says industry standard, but I was wondering if anyone could compare it to say, a standard with AE Park Ave / Fifth Ave / Strand? If I wear a 10.5D in those, should I get a 10.5 in Kent's shoes? In particular I'm wondering about the Single Monkstrap.

 

[Ironist]

I have the single monkstrap, the double monkstrap, and the brogue in size 7 and I'm size 7D in AE strand. The instep is a bit higher so you won't see as wide of a V shape in the laces as you do with the AE. The toe of the KW are more elongated but I feel comfortable in both. Great return policy so I'd say give it a shot.

I'm a 11 in KW plain toe balmoral, and a 10.5 in AE McTavish. Obviously, KW's last is sleeker, but I feel confortable in both.

I am a 10D Brannock and in the Strand, wear a 10D for both the brown captoes and the med brown loafers. Captoes have more room in toe box than loafers do, so I find is slightly better fitting of the two.

Recent suit from Kent. Please excuse the bathroom shot.

hi yywwyy

how wide are those lapels

 

[hookem12387]

@yywwyy wide lapels soft shoulders? It looks great. Any special changes?

 

[New Shoes1]

@yywwyy , I'm struggling with the patch pockets on a suit that is very city. I just got the same suit by the way and am not sure yet what I think of the wide lapels. I wish they were about 0.5 cm more narrow.

 

[CousinDonuts]

Looks good.

Part of me wants to try the bigger lapels on a sportcoat, but I'm afraid as a 38R/39R it will make me feel like I am swimming in fabric.
