Are the other SS formosa options going to be available before the dieworkwear preorder closes? Or a preview/short list?

Stephan Schneider SS2018: FOAMALITIES
For next spring/summer, Stephan Schneider took his inspiration from foam. All kinds of foam!

We decided to have as much fun with this as he did, and this season's pre-order is all about paring things down into a few core styles, all available in the same selection of our favorite fabrics.

We're offering three styles of shirt: the classic plain collar button-up, the short sleeve with button-down collar, and our favorite (don't laugh!) the polo.


Shirt Foam


Shirt Sponge


Polo Bubble


The fabrics include lightweight cotton poplins in the signature foamy mcfoamface colors that took the most direct inspiration from the collection: a pale yellow, a pale pink, a pale mint green, and (you guessed it) a pale blue.





The other options don't necessarily have as much to do with the theme of the collection, they just happen to be beautiful fabrics in their own right. There is a very cheery sherbet plaid (as I'm calling it), and two beautiful linen hopsacks: one a navy and white broken herringbone, and the other a fine stripe in beiges and browns. My advice? The polo in the navy and white, and the long sleeve in the stripes.






So I mentioned it was going to be simple, but how simple?

Long sleeve shirt Foam in any of the solid pale cottons: $180 after 20% PREORDER discount, with 50% due now and 50% upon arrival in February (estimated)

Long sleeve shirt Foam in the sherbet plaid or either of the linens: $204 after 20% PREORDER discount, with 50% due now and 50% upon arrival in February (estimated)

Short sleeve shirt Sponge in any of the solid pale cottons: $180 after 20% PREORDER discount, with 50% due now and 50% upon arrival in February (estimated)

Short sleeve shirt Sponge in the sherbet plaid or either of the linens: $204 after 20% PREORDER discount, with 50% due now and 50% upon arrival in February (estimated)

Polo Bubble in any of the solid pale cottons: $156 after 20% PREORDER discount, with 50% due now and 50% upon arrival in February (estimated)

Final call for Valstar preorders!

I'm surprised that we didn't get more preorders for the 60/40 Valstarino. Great jacket and pricing (under $400) ... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


VALSTAR PRE-ORDERS SS18

(1) Suede Valstarino

No need to introduce the Valstarino blouson. Invented by Valstar in 1935 as a civilian/city take on A1 military leather jackets, it has been copied, imitated and made all over the world. It's a great piece that can be worn with tailored pants, jeans, a sweater, a shirt. It just looks great on most people. The simple lined version (not wool lining or insulation/fill) is perfect for all climates, including milder ones. The unlined version is perfect when looking for a lighter suede jacket.
  • Choose lined or unlined.
  • Pick your color and size and get it at a great pre-order price.




Six colors, sizes from Eu 44 to Eu 60. No MTM or other customization.

(2) Cotton/nylon (60/40 type) Valstarino

Finally a fabric Valstarino from the new team at Valstar. Great pick with the 60/40 fabric, water-repellent, same fit and design as Valstarinos, same horn buttons, lighter weight travel fabric and a great value. Three colors available for pre-orders.

(3) Cotton/nylon (60/40 type) Trench

Same fabric but cut as a classic short trench. A very useful piece throughout the year. Nice suede detail under the collar.

(4) Suede minimalist MA-1 bomber, great printed lining

Last but not least, a nice design and alternative to the button-front Valstarino, this MA-1 inspired bomber has a great streamlined look, uses the same soft goatskin suede as Valstarino and comes with a really cool leaf-print lining. Only available in 2 colors for pre-orders.

I'm actually looking to get a suede reddish/brick jacket. This time around the colors are quite muted.

EIDOS SS18 PRE-ORDERS (THE FINAL CHAPTER)

With Antonio making his exit after this season, and while we are hoping that Eidos continues to put out great designs, we will certainly miss his eye for fabrics and cuts.

This may be our last pre-orders with Eidos so take advantage if you like the NMWA cut, Sal trousers, etc... Please note that we were asked to exclude Eidos pre-orders from our usual pre-order discount construct, so you won't be able to apply any pre-order discount (beyond SF10)

SUITS

All in "NMWA" cut with "NMWA" trousers. All unlined jackets for spring/summer

Tallia di Delfino "Fresco" wool in navy mini-tooth

SEPARATES

FORMAL WEAR

20170425091b_1.jpg


We find it very difficult to find good tuxedos with a nice cut and great fabrics. Antonio does a great job there, but we cannot stock all styles and everyone has different tastes (DB shawl? peak SB? midnight? cream?) - so this is an opportunity to get the dinner suit you really want

Three jacket styles offered:
  • SB peak (Ciro)
  • SB shawl (Ciro)
  • DB shawl (Ciro)
Tuxedo peak lapel (1).JPG Tuxedo black wool (4).JPG Tuxedo cream linen silk cotton (7).JPG

Three fabrics offered
  • VBC midnight wool (looks pitch black in any artificial light)
  • Faliero Sarti black cotton/silk (light, awesome hand, impossible to capture in pics)
  • Tallia di Delfino cream linen/silk/cotton
Midnight wool and black cotton/silk come with black grosgrain lapel facings. Cream linin/silk/cotton lapels are in same fabric.

Trousers sold as separates (dinner Sal model with grosgrain side tape)

Best to go to the Eidos Pre-Order page for all options


Delivery estimated Feb-Mar 2018

Pre-order deadline is July 30th at midnight ET

Do the Eidos NMWA trousers have side tabs or belt loops only?... Looking at preordering a suit...
Edit: Never mind, I guess belt loops only :)

On the links to the tuxedo trousers you say Lorenzo is available :)

Yes. Just what I said. Everything is labeled and options are laid out on the product page. I spent many hours preparing all this for you guys.

@gdl203 have you handled swatches personally? which one really stands out for field jacket?

The Faliero Sarti fabrics are pretty incredible - texture, slub, really unique. They're quite expensive but really special fabrics IMO. The paprika one is killer. I think that the tan heavy linen fabric is also incredible. As versatile as it gets - great travel jacket
