Pistol Lake - small batch produce, US made (LA) cotton and hemp, organic some, tees, henleys, sweatshirts etc by 2 men enterprise.  Seems people very like such approach and cuts of the PL items. Anyone have something from them?

Slightly peeved that they're calling their button down a button up, but that hoodie looks nice.

I think the Henley above looks damn good, and I like the heavyweight version that is sold out. Possibilities here.

received shipment of my order this weekend. Order consisted of one crewneck sweatshirt, two organic cotton T's, and one Minimalist performance T which is made out of a fabric called Eudae which has Eucalyptus tree fibers in it.
Overall I have to say their products are pretty damn good. The crewneck sweatshirt is my favorite and is a homerun for them in my book. I will definitely be ordering more in my size when they restock them. The fit is dead on and the fabric is quite substantial though not IH heavy. As of right now it's my favorite crewneck sweater I have tried to date.
As for the T's...they are very nice. Fabric on both the organic cotton and Eudae shirts are very nice and very soft. The fit on the cotton T's are not bad but not awesome for me so they will be going back. The collars on them are just a bit too big for my taste (I ordered the crewnecks).It's not that I hate them at all, it's just I have soooooo many damn T's in my closet that I really don't need two more that I'm not completely in love with. The Eudae T shirt however, I will be keeping. The fit is better than the organic cottons and the Eudae fabric really is nice.
Overall I would recommend giving these guys a try. I will definitely be picking up more crewneck sweaters and will try some other products as they become available in my size. FWIW I order a Large in everything and it ended up being the right size for me. For reference I'm a XL slim in Gustin, 42 in Taylor Stitch, and an XL in most Iron Heart tops.

Pistol Lake makes some pretty good stuff guys. I picked up a long sleeve Henley and just ordered another one last night. Super soft cotton/poly blend, nothing heavy but it's a nice shirt. The fit is very nice and the fabric drapes well. It's a very flattering fit especially if you have an athletic build and like to hit the gym on the regular. I think their vision is creating performance gear that you can wear to the gym or the bar and I have to say that seem to have nailed it. I've never been a huge fan of that concept but it really works with the gear I have received so far from them.
Like I stated before I will definitely be picking up more items from them. Customer service is great and William (founder/owner) sends out emails and keeps in contact with the customers which is a nice touch. He sent out an email a few days ago saying they are doing another run of the performance T made from the Eudae fabric and he wanted some input on the fit and if there are any tweaks they should make for the upcoming run.

The heavy Henleys are restocked in three colors. Just picked up the Quatermaster. Debating on the Burgundy too but I've never had luck with Burgundy shirts before, they just dont look good on me.

The heavy Henley in the quatermaster color (basically olive green) came in and it's really nice. fabric is pretty thick, nice and soft, and the fit is great. Their products seem to be very consistent so far. Once again another good product from these guys. I've been very happy with my Pistol Lake purchases so far and I just picked up a zip up hoodie today too.
If you guys are looking for great fitting basics or "staples" in nice fabrics I highly recommend giving them a shot and like I said before their sizing has been very consistent.

This is great feedback. I'm all in on a sweatshirt and will probably add a henley to my collection as well. |

Their price point is high, especially considering it is mostly poly. They're $10 more than my other most expensive shirt (heavy pocket tees) made by Dehen in Portland. That said it is a great tech fabric, MIUSA, and fits nice. |

Pistol Lake stuff is really nice and at a fair price point IMO. Next to Iron Heart I now own more Pistol Lake products in my closet than any other brand excluding Gustin which I won't count because I don't wear those items anymore and they are being sold. I'm surprised more people here haven't tried them out. For what their products are and what they are intended for they knock it out of the park IMO.
EDIT: Ok I take that back. I just realized I own a bazillion Old Navy T-shirts so technically I own more Old Navy products than any other brand. Who would have thought??? But damn when Old Navy has their online sales, which seems to be about every other day, their T's are about 5 bucks a piece and I can't pass them up at that price.

Very nice material though and worth the price point IMO toolonginexile. |

I haven't noticed much shrinkage with Pistol Lake henleys (short or long sleeve). And now I have another on its way to me. Sigh. Or perhaps - yay?  |
