Agreed, great stuff. That brown Brooks was my dream suit. Sadly a size too big. Did anyone here snatch it?

Fresh items in the shop today! More shirts, a couple of tweeds, and more trousers, including two pairs of Levis Sta Prest:

Love those cool high-rise tartan strides.... I just bought the non Levi's black watch patterned sta-prest and will get a check or m.o. out to you tomorrow aft!
Gonna have them tapered a good 2" from the hem up and sport them cool with a pair of deadstock weejuns and blazer!
Are there any new developments with the newton street MTM program? was viewing with interest.
Doh, saw your post about the sta-prest - at the time they were not posted, and now they've gone!! Typical.

I do MTM with The Custom Fit http://thecustomfit.com/ (of which I am only a part), which is separate from NSV. It's local to Massachusetts though; I am very skeptical about the success rate of online MTM.
Seeing that reminds me of your awesome windowpayne sack Zach. The gun club jacket on the site is also a fantastic pattern. I'd kill a man for a sack in either of these fabrics.
Fresh items in the shop, more shirts, BDs, CPOs, more knits, a couple more tweeds, and a raglan sleeve Harrington: 
Killer harrington, Zach!
I love that Puritan mockneck too... if only it were a size small; I'd take 'em both!
I have a thing for early '60s Campus, Puritan, Towncraft, etc. short-sleeved surfer style mocknecks. If ever you come across any smaller sizes, please let me know!
Just took delivery of a 46R 'hard-to-find larger size'.
It looks great. I steamed out the creases and it fits fine. All the bells and whistles.
Delivered straight to my door by the postman. No customs fees or charges. No schlepping up to Mitcham to collect it.

Thanks Zach.
Customs are beginning to get on my tits.
I wouldn't risk buying Alden.

Ideal for the summer that unfortunately with the cold snap here in the UK seems light years away.

Hank,
I am not keen on throat latchs - a bit Bookster. However, you do not need to take a razor blade to it. It detachs and can be buttoned inside the coat for storage.
It says it's detachable, anyway.
20 fresh items in the shop tonight! A FEAST of DEADSTOCK. Deadstock chinos, deadstock stay prest cords, deadstock 60s oxford, deadstock Brooks shirt and more!
PLEASE NOTE: I will be out of town Friday and Saturday, 20-21 January, for business matters concerning the natural shoulder. All orders will go out starting Monday, 23 January.

Great gear Zach, a veritable feast for insomniacs in the wee wee hours.
Those deadstock chinos look wonderful, shame they're not in my size.
Lots of orders over the weekend! I will try and get everything out in the mail as quickly as possible starting tomorrow.
You have some great stuff thin repp. That pink Andover shirt went so fast. I should have never hesitated.
16 fresh items in the shop today! More 60s shirts, Brooks Brothers suits, a hooded corduroy Benchwarmer, some knits, and more!
Cheers Zach just took this one off you.

That looks brilliant Oo Bop. Hopefully we get a summer fit to wear it.
Aye, bit of sunshine wouldn't go a miss...
