I don't see how the "New" buttons will work with 9oz. They may be thicker but there not bigger in diameter. Lot of fabric for such small buttons.

brentkuz if you're thinking of backing a chore coat, i think this and the army herringbone look the best. color seems off based on the description, but that's been true of several recent products. (wine shirt?) the corozo buttons look nicer than the metal (imo), and the price point is a bit lower than some of the other chore coat offerings. The weather suddenly warm back up today and I find out I am lacking lighter weight spring items. No more coat or heavy tops including IH. |

15oz Zimbos are back. Can't decide if I want a pair as my Oki's seem to cover that base fairly well. I have both. I'm considering selling one. I don't think there's a point in owning both. But  I'm more interested by what they mean by hand stamped leather patch. Does that mean the brown patch? Ren told me the Zimb 15 is supposed to come with the brown patch. Also looks like the listing now has a photo of them with the brown patch. |

Ooh that royal indigo looks awesome, but 130+ is a little steep for 12 oz. Those gingham flannels are also making it hard to save money. At least I can justify not buying them since they won't ship until it's too warm out.

Gustin has been releasing pretty cool fabrics lately. If I didn't already have a Italy IxI in the pipeline, I might consider Royal Indigo.

Timing of the fabrics aside, the fabrics Gustin has dropped to start off 2015 has been pretty sweet. I've probably saved $1k so far being on this 90 day no spend. Hopefully they drop the Gingham flannels again sometime in early summer.

I do like the shirt fabrics but I don't like the cut, price or delivery date for heavy flannels.
I really want to see some sweet denim fabric. Royal looks good but similar to the ixi.

Ok, here is what I learnt from my Financial Adviser last week. Instead of spending $200 a month on Gustin for the last 12 months in 2014, the same money will be $14K in 30 years if we get average return from the stock market. I spent WAY MORE than $200 a month on clothing in 2014. Felt tiny as being totally irresponsible after he showed me my numbers. Edit: just want to share some of my findings and hope everyone will think a little more before we spend our money on clothes. I am sure there are some real ballers here but I am not. |

Have fun wearing your stocks! I doubt your shares in the market will create any sick fades.

Given the choice of being naked now and rich later or clothed now and slightly less wealthy later, I'm gonna skip the naked option. Not like we're talking about Turnbull & Asser shirts or bespoke suiting (yet).

"I heard this fabric bleed like crazy and I just paid $99 for a 22oz IndigoxBlack. Everyone is also selling IxI nowaday and this JRI does absolutely nothing for me." How about that? I did like the ID. |

Looking like the latest (and my favorite I might add) flannels are not doing too well. It may be the seasonal aspect, but I think the price and delivery times might be finally playing here?
