LOVIN the new drops today! G has been dropping some cool shit lately. I didn't think much of the shirt fabrics when I saw them on IG but damn, they look sick after seeing more pics.
I would seriously back all three drops today, nicely done G.

I would seriously back all three drops today, nicely done G. Shirts, no, (too small and pattern anxiety) but I think I'm getting the #191 Blue 17. I love ~18oz denim. |

The Blue Orange Twill is gorgeous. If it wasn't for the 90 Day Spend Challenge, I'd have spent $300 in G shirts, and it's only day ten of 2015. I'm liking this challenge a lot.

Ahah, i also have a few LD shirts ordered, i'm impatient to compare them both ! |

I'd love to back it, but I've purchased six G shirts (regular ones, not work shirts) and all have been disappointments. I wish I could have confidence that the seventh time would be different, but wouldn't that be Einstein's definition of insanity? |

Yeah I'd have given up, but I've ordered close to 20 shirts and every one has been right on. |

I've only ordered one and it has exceeded my expectations. It's one out of one for me, a limited sample size.

I'm 1 for 5 with their plaid/patterned shirts...1 being acceptable, 4 being returned due to alignment issues

I've been really unimpressed with Gustin's shirts, though I do like my workshirt. Just backed the Blue 17 denim. Reading the description, they mentioned everything I like in a denim: Japanese, starch, crosshatch, dark indigo, and bright weft. Oh, and my guess is there's 100 pairs of these since my backing pushed them up 1%.  |

well, I've managed to resist the NIxPs but I don't think I'll be able to resist that 8 oz BlueOrange Twill.

In the button-down cut though ickes? Seems a weird match to me. |

I just received my 18oz Zimbabwe and I absolutely love the weight, fabric and texture of it. Now waiting for the LD 18. For some reason, 21oz unbranded seems a hell lot thicker and a hell lot uncomfortable than Zims. |

I used to love and only wear those, but I'd like to see a shirt like that not be - or an option at least. |

Not gonna talk about the twills, but the fabric looks great. I'm having bad luck with the shirts lately. Is the Blue 17 the same fabric as the previous Japan One Seven? Hard to say since there's no weft pic. Really wish they wouldn't have stopped with the weft pics, it really provides a lot of assistance in realizing what the final fabric will look like. |

I was wondering the same; if the two fabrics were alike. But I don't see the cross hatching evident on Japan One Seven in the Blue 17. |

ickes, I think it's a bit too heavy to look right as a button down. Hard to say exactly, but it doesn't have a button down vibe... for me at least.

Is 8oz twill really THAT heavy? If so, they should consider going with bigger buttons, and nixing that little back pleat/loop |
