Someone commented "I’m down with EG but they’re really collaborating with anyone now…" and honestly, I can’t disagree. Imho they've been diluting their brand over the past few years with all the collabs.
Agree, sort of feel like the guy who got mad when their favorite indie band went mainstream, although EG was debatably beyond indie when I started wearing their stuff 10 years ago anyway I guess so 🤷‍♂️

Good news is now I can dress my kids like me!

Uniqlo was the worst and that was what, a decade ago? At least JCrew has had lots of decent workwear brand collabos.

Was the first Uniqlo collab really that long ago? It’s not my thing, but I think that partnership made sense, being Ametora. The J.Crew collab works too, given their heavy-duty ivy whatnot. Many of their collaborations, like the recent one with Henry’s, seem to work. I just feel that EG is doing too many collaborations in general. To use the musician analogy from earlier, it’s like they’re doing guest appearances with anyone and everyone.

I like the FA pants but looks oddly similar to the J.Crew one.

Looks like the CC one has a 3d cargo pockets where as the J.Crews are flat
