There was a miscommunication about what was in the shipment. So all that arrived was the 5 oz. San Juan Blue USA Pendleton Mills Wool Work Shirt from the old site. Unfortunately it was not made to my measurements and does not fit and did not get pocket linings (I've called LD and we'll work it out), which is a real bummer since the fabric is dead stock.    Ok.... I am back to my PC and can see the photos better. Is the shirt pattern aligned properly here? What do you guys think? Placket looks off to me. The flap on the pocket looks really bad. The collar looks off, but it just might be the way it is laying. |

The pockets have the pattern turned, but to my eye things look proper. I was looking at the inner collar. Maybe it is the angle or just the way of the ironing. I never paid attention to pattern alignment until last night I saw the misalignment of my G's Bright Plaid shirt. Maybe I am getting over sensitive here. |

@untucked...details man. We need details. edit - just scoped the link...i want those. Nah... Not like those. Those are a nice, mass-produced shoe, but I'm talking CUSTOMIZED. My base shoe was an all black All Star, to begin with. The iconic "Converse All Star Chuck Taylor" white circle is going to be replaced with a black, laser etched logo of the same design. The height will be lowered by 1 eyelet. Add a pull-tab on the back, and probably a leather brand identification tag on the tongue (The cobbler's brand/logo, that is). If you have IG, look for @theshoesurgeon, or do a google search of "The Shoe Surgeon". He even cobbles (Is that a word?!?) his own designs, plus a slew of customization options (Want a hand welted crepe sole on your Nike's? Hand welted Vibram Cristy sole on your Tom's? He'll do it). |

jbreitenbucher that sucks about the sizing. had you requested custom measurements and it arrived as a standard tagged size, or did you change your size after the initial order? (saw your post re: measurements) gusjin good call on the non-lined collar (unless it was requested that way). i had asked if the wool shirts would be lined at all before ordering mine. the response on 11/11 was: "I will be doing the cuff and collar. as for fabrics it will be a 100% cotton chambray, Light Canvas or Denim depending on colors."My fingers will remain crossed that this was an oversight and other woolen shirts will have lined cuffs/collars. I believe that was in reference to the 22oz or whatever wool, not the 5oz Pendleton. |

To answer the pocket lining question. We made a mistake in allowing lining on this fabric. It is way to light to be able to hold up a heavier canvas lining. It was throwing off the look and weighing it down. The result was a decision to not use it for that reason. IF you still want it then we will oblige but during production we had to scrap a few shirts because they did not look right with the lining

Aha! Well, I resubmit my request, PICS! (when they come in). Those sound badass. I wear lots of shoes, but I'm coming up on 30 years in Chucks, they are ever present for a reason. That guys site is insane. I like it, some stuff is super over the top and tastes are what they are but the workmanship is crazy good. |

Agreed! I dont think it was meant to be an option. By the way the Montana shirt gets the best shirt award in my book and I was a Omaha lover until I saw the Montana sitting all nice and sexy on a rack. I love it so much. There is one in the Niphon Menpu 15oz "BEIGE" weft that looks like a $400 shirt in my book. |

You have no idea how many black jackets i have passed up waiting on this! I like it alot. I only saw it for a few minutes at the shipping station in the shop. I walked in and saw that and 3 shirts hanging to be packaged. I naturally took it off the rack and saw ur name on it and made a stink "oh this is Untucked's jacket. I immediately posted about it so my excitement and love of it came out in how fast I told u. I was in the shop for maybe 2 min literally without putting my luggage away lol. You will love it. The piping is pretty badass as well |

I don't know where to post this but I can literally barely stand this lawless instagram pic. Compare to the headless photos of Cody... (who I love, but not like this )...and you can see how LD is up on their marketing game. The wife saw me staring at this over my breakfast cereal (I'd lost motor control for 5 seconds) and all I could manage was 'Wow, isn't that weird how much she looks like you?' It might be a chilly night for the JBC fellas (jk): http://instagr.am/p/xpV0lvjA9A |
