EXCLUSIVE: Engineered Garments Serves a Delicious Ivy Gumbo For SS24
Engineered Garments' Spring/Summer 2024 collection blends Daiki Suzuki's typical militaria, ivy league & prep inspirations into a compelling stew.
Everyone explain why EG is your favorite brand
I’ll start
I think the clothes they make are the coolest
their buckets are the closet thing I can get to wearing an actual wizard hat.
they integrate well
add a little eg to elevate a basic fit
or go all in to be the most beautiful woodland army man
I think theyre that brand for me because back in like 2016 maybe? It was kind if hard to get
They had a rule for retailers that they could only sell it in person or via phone order
So you had to either have a store to see it in person or call nepenthes and hope they pick up lol
EG is a brand to me that does interesting takes on cool vintage stuff that is still wearable.
I can rock EG in pretty much any setting and no one would bat an eye
that’s funny, i wonder if that was an exclusivity thing or daiki just being lazy to sell or expand at the time
just cause EG is everywhere now
some of my fave looks from the lookbook
am i remembering right that nepenthes didn't have an online store until a year or so ago?
some of mine
Like pandemic era
digging all the patchwork including the needles-style stuff
Patchwork madras stuff is very cool
I hope they do a work shirt in that patchwork fabric
I love my madras one
i hope they use this in other garments
i was just seeing that too
would love it in another garm
kinda gutted I didn't pull the trigger on this bomber from the latest collection
The bombers rule
I have the EG x Barbour one
nice, it's waxed i assume?
Everytime I pull it out, I’m surprise how easy the garm is to wear
Yeah it’s sick
truly engineered
I tried this on at Livestock
It was cool but not for me
But the cut is so nice that even a bolder fabric like that would be easy to toss on
Eg bomber twins
The barbour collab is always so good
My hot take
I dont love EG’s spring line
I think theyre like a million times stronger in the fall/winter
i think ive bought 1 EG spring item
everything they make is just better in fall fabrics
shorts, shirts and vests are good in spring/summer
i've got a pretty even mix but fw is always better
ss would be fine if they made the shorts shorter!
wish i bought the aviator bomber jacket from last year
the new cut was perfect for me
if you're in Seattle, Glasswing still has a couple in their brick n mortar
Speaking of
Im so siked for this next season
those prints are so willd
i love that they're doing the bird print as a loiter
but realistically i'm in on a shooting jacket
it takes willpower to not buy another bedford jacket
The shooting jacket is sooo cool
Im really feeling the red canvas items too
Eg great for falls winter stuff
I like their cardigans
Heavy weight ripstop is also sick fabric
I have the aircrews in that material
UK unfortunately :’(
Nepenthes London still have it I think.
Grailed and Marrkt for 2nd hand too. Latter is UK based. Former has an OK UK userbase
Always forget about Marrkt! Ty for the pointers folks
Worth checking, their site said oos last I checked

Field shirts look neat and the for totem stuff is solid
think the printed jackets look really cool
also the olive old plaid printed fatigues look like a really nice subtle change on fatigues
looks like the first season they're workgin with hemp that i can remember https://nepenthesny.com/collections/engineered-garments/products/work-shirt-navy-hemp-cotton-denim
need to find a place to try the shirts on in person. kinda worried it'll be too long with the changes in the past years
see above
😦
scrolling up too hard, mb
@fuzz._. whereabouts are ya located? they've got a billion stockists these days and everyone seems to stock a workshirt at least
in the high desert, cali currently. might stop by mohawk if i stop by in la!

Late to why EG is my favorite brand Convo: I'm a size and shape that's difficult to buy but a Bedford was the first nice jacket to fit me well
Hi tmny! Glad you made it here
Yeah, the beford looks pretty sweet.
I have two patchwork ones, one for spring/summer and one fall/winter
@nay_nayyy ty for the marrkt rec, never checked it before but there’s some sick stuff on there 🫡
Tried on a few Bedford jackets today. I thought they were ok, but not amazing. But I think that style isn't really my jam.
been keeping my eye out for this since i slept on the pants 3 years ago -- if anyone spots this on/off jacquard pinstripe wool in really any garm from fw20 hit me up. Haven't seen much lately but am not as good at trawling y!jp as i used to be.
I wish loiters fit me 😦
Epic plaid once again
loiters don't fit me and i still wear them
how don't think fit you?
Ride width is too short, right length is far too wide in current cut.
I tried on some loiters in a couple of different sizes back in October, I really liked it but didn’t pick up in the end. Tempted to get one this year though
Actually I think one of ones in there is a Bedford, just committed EG heresy 😨
those look like loiters, they have the patched flap pockets
Ah cool nice one, was doubting myself
eg jackets are so damn good. loiters have my favorite detail: the buttons on the back to bring in the waist end up giving you a double vented finish. A callback to an older jacket they did, the "Baker" which had pleated vents and a callback to an era of tailoring that i always lose track of. Either way, ingenious way to build in a vent
Comebackkid brought up the polos for SS24 -- my brain glossed right over them. Looking back at it, they look great (and also can't get more excited for what looks to be a double breasted tropical wool blazer)
“Are your garments even engineered”
The blazer is sadly cotton
They call it Navy PC Hopsack
I cannot see myself spending 600 dollars on what essentially is just a decent quality bag with a few pockets. This company's designs have little to do with engineering. An engineer would figure out a way to lower the price.
Engineering ain’t cheap
just bought this 😎
this whole fit is so sick, idk if i can pull off the shorts but i want to
very cool. i keep almost buying the boring version, but the idiot part of my brain keeps telling me to spend twice as much for the new shooting jacket
Im so siked for this next season
I put in a special order earlier this year and kind of balled out
Im getting a varsity jacket, carlyle pants and an interliner
interliner is so cool
i wanna grab one too
they literally named them F U pants
might pick up a work shirt, the black denim looks nice
I really want an interliner
I have a TCK interliner fit pic saved in my inspo from like 2018
this FW season coming up might be Daiki’s best work yet
Agreed
Im sad i sold it 😔
I wore it a surprising amount
carlyle pants are underrated
and add me to the list of interliner droolers
Interliners are great. I want another one.
Anybody have feelings about "New Bedford" vs. Bedford?
They style differently. New Bedford closer to a sport coat, Bedford closer to a chore coat. New Bedford has details like functioning cuff buttons, sewn buttons, etc whereas Bedford is a plain hem on sleeves and uses butcher buttons. New Bedford also is a bit slimmer
Man, that sounds good as hell. Sleeve measurements will be crucial though...
You can still find this at a few shops online if you want it
Are they both still called Bedford? I want the chore coat style
nah, new bedford was explicitly the New Bedford. It looks like this season's jacket lineup is bedford, loiter, shooting jacket (collarless joint), cutaway (open quarters fwk joint), db jacket, andover, maine guide (what a throwback). No New Bedford that I can see
Oh sweet. I have a universal works bakers jacket I need to get rid of and replace
hell yeah! i spend too much time on the internet looking at clothes. Any fabrics you're looking at? I'll keep an eye out
Nothing specific I haven’t been looking hard. The UW jacket is a green cotton but I’m not tied to that at all really. Mostly looking for a SS and FW option
Also a huge EG newb
im so ready to go down the nepenthes rabbit hole
id love to finally get a bedford. i tried one on a couple years ago and i remember it fitting really nice, i just wasnt confident enough to have something like that in my wardrobe yet
lots of great fabrics this season, already a few out at nepenthes. my favorite is the uniform wool serge they use -- the same fabric used in old police uniforms and they've been using it since like 2010. Still milled in the USA, though I forget who does it. Always ends up in a dressier style (used to have a baker in it) . Looks like the loiter and probably andover this year https://nepenthesny.com/collections/engineered-garments/products/loiter-jacket-dark-navy-wool-uniform-serge-1?variant=44342456680698 . All this is unsolicited opinion because this is an exciting season for what's coming out
i also want some needles hd pants, and to at least try on that moleskin shooting jacket... maybe i'll justify a trip down to ny
Ohh interesting fabric
is serge like, a cousin of gabardine?
closer to a twill
I presume it would feel exactly like the JROTC uniforms I had to wear lmao
This is really pretty: https://nepenthesny.com/products/loiter-jacket-black-cotton-bird-print-velveteen
SS12 Baker Jacket in the seasonal peacock print. I still wish I could buy the drapes that nepenthes ny used for their dressing room in this fabric

OBSESSED with this brand, however, can't really afford the clothes. I did get the lace-up version of their Vans collab.
What I love about EG in particular is their asymmetrical designs that are actually wearable in day-to-day life given the right context, which I actually call "wearable weird"
Love the 3 piece suit
varsity this season looks pretty good, albeit just a normal varsity. Nice work with the separate armpit piece, zip out liner and their classic roll-up knit cuffs (versus just standard knit). https://www.instagram.com/p/CveX6UuhSSF/?img_index=1 Has been about a decade since they last ran a varsity
second hand makes EG VERY affordable in my opinion
I also have those vans, they look great beat up
I tried buying some EG workaday cords on Depop but they didn’t fit me 😵
there's a bunch of people here who have been buying EG for far too long, if you've ever got a q on sizing this'll be a great group to ask on older pieces
Big fan of this color way
https://www.instagram.com/p/CveX9o5hQJv/
that one is so good, a nice "forest" color that goes well with the season
I need to set up an eBay alert when I get home. I’m prepare to fall down the rabbit hole
That looks great! In fui think they had a varsity 6ish years ago? FW17 TF jacket
Yeah I’m normally a 32 but their 32 was a bit too tight
eg sizing and fits are insane and unpredictible.
I've heard
I'd peg that one as more of a bomber that they do a varation of every season. This is the last one I remember, with Golden Bear
if you're new to eg or even if you're not, measurements are essential
I actually wonder, since EG clothing have special stitching and construction made, does anyone actually get them altered to fit them better or just accept it as it is?
This looks pretty tame for EG, however, I like the colors and the collar looking like a mockneck
the rule is trust in Daiki and just buy your size
EG Construction is pretty barebones, honestly nothing special. Cut stuff up! My rule is "what is the intended fit of this" before I chop it up. example: the 19th century is a bit of an a-silhouette shirt with a blousey effect. To try to chop it into a Normal Dress Shirt wouldn't match that intent, and thus is worth grabbing something else
but different seasons fit differently
The only tailoring i’ve ever had done is simple hemming on pants/shorts
Fit varies by season but i’ve been doing L for tops and M for pants for long enough that I just trust it will fit
that only bites me in the ass if i buy something from the slimmer fitting era and it’s too small haha
100%. Also exercise caution on just "sizing up" on pieces from that era. I've gambled a few times doing that and lost (but i'm also a fatass with 0 drop and short as hell).
It feels odd to tailor a brand like EG to me. With traditional tailoring you really@need stuff to fit your body right. But EG is so casual and pulls from milsurp that I can’t imagine doing something like slimming a jacket
Yeah you gotta do down a size on Workaday stuff
disagreed, tts or up on most of it. pants fit small (so size up) unless they're alpha (s/m/l). Hoodies are tts, shirts are tts and fit long and a bit big (think BB Big Shirt circa 1992)
Yeah shortening pant legs and shirt sleeves is the most I ever go with altering clothing
If it's less than an inch maybe taking in the waist
Nah I would have had to go one size up on these ones
eg a size 30 workaday cords will be 15" waist, rather than a contemporary pattern which puts it at 15.5" on a 10.5" rise
Good to know, I had to go down one on workaday fatigues.
I haven’t bought workaday stuff in a while but I used to size up on pants compared to my mainline EG size
My current brain worm is last years aircrew pants in the heavyweight ripstop. I slept on em, then bought a pair on YJP recently but the order was cancelled

Workaday the only experience I have is the tees, which fit small so I get large.
yeah anything pre-owned, unless i happen to recognize it or the season, gotta have measurements
I’m M lol. I want the green pair and they’re impossible to find
this pair
ahhhhh, yeah. the heavy ripstop is so nice there too. beautiful pants.
luckily i’ve got no shortage of olive pants
They are. Probably my most used pair in the winter time
but i still really want them hahaha
Proper LBC has a Large in the olive if you want them to be huge lol
I honestly could probably make a large work lol
i’ve got some L fatigue shorts that fit crazy big in the waist but they’re fine with a belt
ah damn these look like the spring/summer pair unfortunately
i need that heavyweight ripstop for minnesota winters lol
Ah crap you did say heavyweight, my bad
all good haha i appreciate the help!
feel like angelo styled workaday on dmx years ago 2 sizes up and the alpha sizing all went for that as the intended fit https://hypebeast.com/2017/11/dmx-engineered-garments-timberland-3-eye-lug-shoes .

Wearing the Totem collab cord fatigues today
hell yea, i have the brown pair but it’s way too hot outside for them rn
Still on the lookout for a fw19 chestnut patchwork cord Bedford. One day.
And the patchwork duck canvas painters from fw19 but XS never appears.
i've been on the lookout for a homespun loiter for long enough that i've almost lost interest
It dipped down into the 70s/low 80s in the SF Bay Area this week so I’ve been wearing all my heavy fatigues 😂

Fucken VAT.
Thank you for this! For future purposes, EG or otherwise, how can you tell if a piece of clothing is meant to be drapey/roomy or it can be slimmed down?
One of my personal favorite pieces that I own. Can’t remember what season it’s from but snagged it off Norse Store on sale a couple years back
That's beautiful
I'd say it's really a subjective thing to talk about the "intended fit".
For me, I try to view it in the context of what a designer is referencing (eg: is this a riff on a blouse but trying to put it in a more masculine context?), how the brand and stores style it, how I think I'd style it. I try to think about the mods I'd make to it (eg slimming) and think about what it'd do to the proportions of the garm.
EG: If I am slimming a shirt that is wide -- will it be in proportion to the length of the shirt? Will the pockets be in a spot that's a coherent spot for a pocket (or too far to the side?). Once you start to get into calculus of things like "well, I can move the pocket too" you usually are better off just getting a different garm
I've got the same bag but not patterned like that, that's amazing
I think I tried on Carlyle pants with that pattern. They looked great, but didn’t fit. FW19. The pattern was stunning in person but they didn’t have my size left
they did a shawl collar tux jacket with it too, wild as a suit
Found this on yjp and bopped for under the VAT limit. Cheers.
They do different fabrics each season, some really great ones over the years
I’d love to get my hands on those!
I used to have this jacket
I miss it so much …
That's the hummingbird one? peak angelo era
Yeah
Idk why i sold it!! It was so sick
i’ve learned to never sell EG that still fits me haha
Thats the thing
The jacket was kind if small on me
wasn't that from the end of the "skinny" era
i’ve got a bunch of medium shirts i’m about to sell if anyone here wants first dibs
If anyone comes across another one in L or XL …
Hit me up ..
any of the recent 19th ct stuff evol?
i might let you know
i might but it 😂
it’s all a little older
gotcha, all the 6 button front shirts not the newer 7 gather
i’ve been going L on recent stuff and like the fit much more
mostly workaday utility shirts i’m sellin
also a classic shirt in gun club check
and a suuuuuper old 19cbd
oh those kick ass someone's gonna get some gems from ya
old label, madras
yea i wish i wasn’t dumb and bought L’s
i can still fit them but i just wish they were baggier
the slim fit everything era melted all of our brains
truly
trying to gather funds to grab a jacket i’ve got my eye on without spending any real money lol
I used to see them popup every now and then in the styleforum EG for sale thread
Yeah id see them every now and then too but they seemed to have just disappeared nowadays
it’s tough to find the really cool old stuff
cuz no one wants to sell it
I'll sell my suit. For silly money only.
this suit
sorry for your loss TCK. i'll keep a lookout too
off the chart vibes
I need to find the interliner to finish mine lol
i wear M more often than not evol. i'd be interested in seeing what you have
i’ll hit you up when i take pics!
i used to have this in L but it was soooooo slim
interliner makes this
such a cool jacket tho
off the top of my head: 2 flannel workaday utility shirts, yellow twill utility shirt, chambray utility shirt, gun club classic shirt, and a flannel mainline workshirt in L that fits like a current M
i’ve also got a charcoal cpo shirt that i’m considering listing
really wish that was a large cuz it’s sooooo sick
Sorely under-rated pieces. Was the first part of this I got and it was on sale at Kafka end of season, then found the rest nwt on yjp.
i had one of those CPOs that my ex's dog ate
lmao my dog ate my previous one, i ended up selling it to innerpiece and he got it patched up
i'm still mad and it's like 6 years later
i wondered if you'd bought it at once or pieced it together
they really need to bring the CPO jacket back, an all timer EG piece
the new trail jacket is kinda similar but doesn’t hit the same
Took me about 2/3 years to piece it together.
the trail jacket is definitely a throwback. timpoblete was posting some of the old old seasons (2004ish) on instagram and one of the pieces is identical
your efforts were rewarded
idk what the fabric offering is on the trail jacket but if i can get a navy heavy ripstop or some sort of charcoal herringbone i’m gonna grab one
someone has a homespun reversible coat i think on grailed and it's beautiful
but theu're asking a fortune
i just sold one of those this past winter
fit with a tee but couldn’t really layer
i was dumb to start buying EG in my mid twenties before the dad bod set in lol
i have a green one that i love so i don't need it but i waaant it

MEASUREMENTS Shoulder: 18” Length: 39” COLOR GREY CONDITION Used_Good MATERIAL Cotton
a great price
looks nice and agreed on the price. someone should grab that
woah wait a second
this is more nuts than it appears
i have pants in this -- it's 4 different patterns of wool
right panel is homespun, left panel is twill, pockets appear to be herringbone, left sleeve hb, right sleeve homespun. back herringbone
oh you're right. damn
do you know what the reverse is? is it striped?
good q. I think it was fw20 maybe? will dig around
i was thinking 19 but you're probably right
the pants i've got are willy post, whichever season they did those
which is what, fw15 -> 20 on and off?
at least through 19 yeah
Fw19 was the patchwork which makes sense for this
hmm, odd. fw16 is apparently when my pants are from
which puts it at the same era as the one you posted narwhal
the grailed reversible is brown homespun
pretty sure that was fw14 only
2nd street appears to be the fw16 "Dk. Grey Wool Pattern Mix Reversible Coat". Still trying to find the actual reverse
okay it's this one
reverse is "Navy/Grey Stripe Activecloth"
nice sleuthing
my brain was thinking of those stripes but i wasn't sure
this means the medium fits more like a small than a medium or large
Dang that’s an awesome piece at a great price. And my size too
😰
damn someone snagged it. hell yeah to someone here
Has eg ever made a black patchwork bedford? Want a black Bedford but the denim this season seems a little boring
Yeah, fw19 there was cord and double cloth patchwork.
Probably also ss19
Damn I missed out, double cloth sounds extremely up my alley
the black moleskin isn't patchwork but kicks ass if they run it again this season
They have that in the shooting jacket but afaik not in a Bedford
If I could track down this M I’d probably grab it. Can’t find it on y!j or mercari

Anyone in North America even known to be carrying it?
I love the incredibly random@assortment of items in the pockets. Fishing pole butt? Check. Book of poems? Check. Gardening/work gloves? Check

only the essentials!
i’ve only seen it on the beams web store unfortunately

nice and roomy
Awesome thank you
Do folks prefer the Andover jacket as a 3 button or a 3 roll 2? I got the tropical wool one from last season on sale at Nepenthes recently and it came with the lapels pressed as a 3 button, but I feel like I've more often seen it styled the other way
Anybody have any Woolrich Woolen Mills pieces from when Daiki was at the helm? I remember wishing I could afford it back in the day and I kind of want to track some down but not sure how to distinguish which pieces were his (other than the ones I distinctly remember, like the back/blue check coats and vests)
yeah, i've got a few. Key giveaway is when the garm has a tag with writing - That indicates daiki era. Tag is always Woolrich Woolen Mills with the sheep. The WWM Sheep tag was also shared in the mcnairy era. Stuff from that era isn't bad but definitely missing on detailing that daiki did. Shirts and pants didn't have the writing tag, so are a bit tougher to judge if it's mcnairy or daiki eras
funny that the "tag with a bunch of small writing on it" design feature carried over to EG
I have a chambray work shirt.
I think from 2010
Very old fit, I wasn't really taking fit pics then
was on eg first, had a jacket from 05 with the red eg tag and that old tag. good stuff and a fun motif
i love that sneaky lil pocket there
I bought the shirt because of the pocket. I didn't have any EG then nor did I know who Daiki was.
I have a pair of ripstop chinos. Fabric and construction are nice but the design is basic chinos
This is also from the era of straight fit, which feels slim today, so I haven’t worn them in awhile

These just hit 80% off. I have the longer version of this with the fleece side and it's been solid.
I’ve been eyeing these. SSENSE has some deeeep discounts right
now
Hello all. New to Discord and EG. Recently went straight in the deep end (for me anyway) and bought my first EG piece.

shoes are pimp
The shoes are dumb as hell
i am not fuckin with the pants
Lol
I agree on pants
Shoes just look like I grabbed a cap toe and a wingtip in the dark
for sure haha
i get comments whenever i wear the old mismatched vans slip ons
would totally wear the trickers tho
it looks like costuming from the upcoming timothee chalamet wonka film
i love those shoes and wear em all the time in black. that fabric in pants sucks and will wear out in no time. in the shooting jacket? gimmie
I’d LOVE the shoes if they did opposite panels. Like pebble cap toe, suede vamp. Then opposite on the other shoe
are we all looking at the same shoes cause they look bad!
i think it's time for daiki to check in to the assisted living facility
wuz it is in fact your taste that is bad! not the quirky mismatched shoes on a wonky last!
hahaha
i don’t think anyone would notice irl
they’ve done the same mismatch before!

The pants look like something a guy dressing like narduwar for halloween would wear
Mail call
I actually have the knockaout short version of this, picked up from YJP years ago, but was wondering if anything else had been made of this fabric, or what term did EG used for this. Never seen it elsewhere than knokabout short and jacket.
Does it have any stretch to it?
I know the guy behind Randy’s Garments interned at Nepenthes and this shirt is the Koolnit poly mesh (no stretch).
I don't think the shorts have much stretch at all.
got hands on a few things this week from current season. while they are not for me, the plaid heavy twill shirting is so nice. gem after a few f/w seasons of good patterns but middling fabrics in the shirting. also can say everything i tried on felt the same in sizing as s/s (shirting and bedfords)
Nice pants
For a clown to wear
To the circus
friendly psa that the ss23 atlantic parka is very good and on sale at many stores!!
Its here
This is how a large (my usual size) fits
Looks perfect
Great fit
anything special in the make that sticks out? Looks great
Yeah one really cool feature is a zipper opening in the liner at the bottom hem of the jacket
The liner isnt removeable its just so you can sew patches to the body without having to sew them into the liner too
The leather sleeves feel luxe too
My sister in law is getting married in June next year and I’m gonna spend the next few months scanning deals to piece together an EG suit. I’m looking to get a lighter weight one and other than the lightweight twills, any suggestions on which season had some breathable fabrics for Andover and Bedford?
Grey Tropical Wool and Navy Linen Twill from this most recent Spring/Summer season were good. They typically do some sort of suiting fabric on the andovers every season

that cardigan is such a great piece. Is it actually crochet, or knit to look like crochet?
Knit to look like crochet
Its actually really soft and fuzzy
honestly that's kinda cooler. trompe l'oeil crochet that's less corny than the gitman shirts last season that were printed to look like crochet
Yeah if it was actually crochet’ed itd be like 3x the price probably
Wow that cardigan
So good
Yeah my wife saw the cardigan and went “ooh”, then I told her it would be $600+, but then I was pleasantly surprised!
Is it generally true that EG fits really big? Im wanting to buy a jacket but can only find the one i want in a size M and im like a L/XL
Ive heard it fits big usually but ive never really looked in to the brand or experienced the clothes first hand
The jacket is a cruiser btw
personally, always been tts and it was just like i wanted it to fit
I feel like the rumor that EG is big is an artifact from the slim-fit era
Shoot
i buy tts and it fits exactly like it should
Sometimes the truth hurts
Well its a little more complicated
Some things fit huge- particularly the pants
The workshirts are cut gigantically the past few seasons
But the jackets are more tts
Also depends on the season. Many seasons in the 20teens that were tiny
imo a lot of eg, at least in recent years, legitimatly fits oversized, sometimes aggressively oversized
it's only a half-joke to trust Daiki and go tts. there's no real shame in sometimes sizing down
the short answer is, as al mentioned, it depends on if it's new or older
if it's a newer cruiser, and assuming you're going to style it in a Weeg way, I think you're safe sizing down
Its apparently from aw21
2011 wool cruiser is safe to size down. 2012 and 2013 were more tts. 2017?(the Woolrich season) tts or +1. 2021 tts or down if you're slim/not layering
Imo and to be taken with a big grain of salt
Sorry to say what you already know, but measurments are best, but i thin, you're ok sizing down 21
you can see that look book here to see what's presumably tts https://www.engineeredgarments.com/fw21/

Dang those cruisers look good lol
the tri-blend is a beautiful fabric too
i like the "faux melton" poly (and it's machine washable!) but it's definitely an acquired taste
@mrweeg if the M doesn’t work lmk
always wanted the aviator jacket from that season
im kinda rockin with it
dang that’s cute
al please keep me posted on cute EG bombers too, you’re doing god’s work
matching bag too
can we have a channel for cute EG bombers?

Damn
bought some pants
nice pants dude
i’m ready to go pumpkin spice latte mode
I tried on one of these with a different pattern and I felt like the fabric didn’t work with the design very well
It’s very heavy so it kind of pulled the collar down in a weird way
Yoooo
bopped the aviator jacket
the talk of fw21 made me search for it on mercari and found one in my size posted the same day
niiiiiiice
you’ve been lookin for that for a while haven’t you?
yup!!!
i’ve been eying the olive green one but blkblu won’t put it on sale lol
its the same one too black coated twill, there was such a limited number in the US and no one carried it, really excited for it to arrive

that soft round hem on the 19th ct is so good. next project i'm ripping it off with a giant club collar. absolutely perfect under the vest
19th c is one my fav shirt patterns. The round hem is great untucked casual but tuckable for a good slouchy suit.
Also currently cut suitably long for tall skinny boys like me.
100%. the longer cut so the side gussets don't show skin when floating in the wind is perfect. praise the 7th button
these convos are influencing me to get an EG vest
@wuzpoppin
im becoming mfa pilled
you should def get one, they rock
i wear mine all the time
i alr found good deals 2nd hand so it’s over basically
agreed on the 19th c. they layer so nicely
another 19cBD lover here
EG vests are great. Get one.
they’re the best for layering
if you're not constantly looking for another eg vest i don't know what you're doing
I have one of these I wear a lot.
EG vests are good because i can just wear a t-shirt and throw one on and i feel cooler
my C-1 vest got a lot of play this summer over a white tee with fatigue shorts
There's a camo c1 at nepenthes London that I need to not buy.
Apologies, a fowl vest.
that's a good one
confession: the only eg vest currently in my closet is a navy fowl vest
it's so easy to throw on if you need/want a couple extra pockets
i thought you had a shoulder vest too? if not then i suggest putting that on the list
shoulder vest is sicko
i do not. chopper does i believe
i must find my own or steal yours
Shoulder vest is criminally not a seasonal regular. I got a dark brown cord one.
the shoulder vest is so cool
i wanna get the charcoal herringbone one
cultizm had a huge sale on shoulder vests a couple years ago so i snagged two
they’re usually pretty expensive whenever they pop up on resale sites now
my favorite of eg vests that i slept on was the combi vest. it's by far the dumbest, least wearable vest they made though
emphasis on least wearable because with it folded over it looks very bad
no that's sick - i'd like to see it styled by more competent people though lol
lmao fair. 2015 fwrd styling was bad even at the time
which
both great but i think first would be nice with your style
i like the lil bow
i don't like navy personally though i guess
yeah the lil bow is cure
cute
cant go wrong either way
I want a shoulder vest so bad
Anyone know how I can find sizing for these two pieces?

Dude my store just got our next delivery
Climbing pants are beyond beastmode
The pants i ordered just came in
Oh damn these are sick, where did you find them?
I work at a store that stocks eg, this is our newest delivery
I ordered the silly FA pants.
climbing pants look insane. which ones did you get in?
Black ripstop and olive pc coated cotton
How's that pc coated material?
Its nice! Lighter and more crisp than past pc fabrics theyve used
what’s the fit like on the climbing pants?
kinda like fatigues?
I think they fit more like the aircrew / FA pants
even better 😎
I need another pair of black pants like i need a hole in my head but theyre soooo cool
the heavy ripstop is so good i’m gonna grab these
@_thecomebackkid what's the hand like on those houndstooth joints? Haven't had a chance to see anything with that fabric yet. like a normal heavier woolen? Softer? Comp tells me it's gotta feel pretty soft
Its nice! Not like sweatpant soft but they feel pretty good
Nice midweight, not too hefty but they still drape well
nice! ty
Whered you find those pics?
canoeclub just chucked em up
Oh cool
ya CC
Are these climbing pants? That's a cool silhouette
ya they are
Dang
they’re basically fancy patagonia stand up pants
Cc always so quick on the draw
especially cuz the heavyweight ripstop kinda feels like carhartt type fabric
Youre totally right ablut that
Its kind of rigid at first
it’s a great fabric
i love my heavyweight ripstop fatigues
i have an irrational dislike for eg ripstop. i wish i could figure it out since they do so many nice silhouettes in it
Im a big fan of the lightweight ripstop they use
My aircrews and bedford get a lot of wear
i had a pair of the fatigue shorts in the lightweight ripstop when things were skinny and were the first season with the zip pocket detail (SS15?). the rips didn't stop, unfortunately for me. 🍑
couple pics from Reggie ig
Is there an outseam on em? Kinda looks like they did the old cool design where it's just a dart. Peg jean was like that, as were the old old old balloon pants
i picked up a pair of navy deck pants not too long ago but i wish i'd waited to get these, instead of taking the long journey of convincing myself i should have both
that’s funny because it’s probably my favorite fabric 😅
have you guys seen the RF jean stocked anywhere? looks good from what i’ve seen so far
it looks so good. last fw's jeans were great, but these seem a step up even
(via lookbook only, haven't even seen them hit japan)
nepenthes ny has them
have not seen them anywhere else though
we are in such a strange moment where nepenthes ny has the worst styling of the brands they carry
that’s why i wanna see how they look styled by other stores 😂
Flight pants coming back this season? I have the moleskin version that didn't end up being worn cuz they're too warm for where I'm at 😞
I found a funny detail with the climbing pants
Double knee pants usually have that to slide knee pads in
So its probably a holdover from that! Though its weird that it goes all the way up haha
Its probably so, if you are climbing and you have to hang upside down, you can transfer your items from the normal pockets to the upside down pockets and then you dont lose your stuff. Think about it
Shotgun holster
Australian pockets
i’m gonna put my weed there
This is also exactly how they are on the old patagonia stand up pants! Def for knee pads. The patagonia ones used to be pockets and double knees in one piece sewn on, so it’s easier to just let them go all the way up.
This is listed as an engineered garments fowl vest but I can’t find any info on it, is it actually EG?
No
Didn’t think so, thanks for confirming
Do the brick and mortar nepenthes stores have anything unique to them worth looking for?
they’ll have a wider array of stuff for sure
as in just B&M, or nepenthes specific? NNY will have pieces that aren't online, special installations somtimes, and older season stuff that's tough to find. Nepenthes also has a few house lines beyond the normal EG/Needles/South2 West8 umbrella that they don't wholesale. Woburn Walk out of the UK, Garment District Productions in NY, AiE (wholesaled but nobody carries em), used to have Rough & Tumble
i know nepenthes ny usually has exclusives as well
man, RANDT was so good
still have a bunch of their shirting. a gem because you can find a piece for pennies here and there
wish i still had some of those patchwork shirts
yea i’m always keeping an eye out
great stuff
FWIW Nepenthese London is tiny and they don't seem to hold all the website stock on site (but it's not far away).
Yeah, it's london I'm hitting. It looks tiny on google maps.
ho hum
They had some really great London exclusive knitwear when I was there in July
EG is always better to try in person. Worth the time just for that to get a feel for the fabrics and be able to actually try multiple sizes of weird things you wouldn't try online
Alright now we're cooking.
I'm only there for the day so I'm weighing up if i'll hit brycelands, nepenthes or what
only have time for a couple
Ah you can do both brycelands and Nepenthes easy.
I hit Clutch, Son of a Stag, Anglo Italian, the RRL store and I'm sure I'm forgetting some in June. Missed Nepenthes and Brycelands.
Was gonna say go between the two via clutch cafe, a nice espresso in store st espresso between nepenthes and clutch.
Son of a Stag is great, the staff are 💎 's
The cord stuff this season looks so good
Climbing pants look great, cord loiter looks great
Gonna have to cash in some canoe club points
this is a gem someone cooler than me should buy https://www.ebay.com/itm/386153519694

Good pant
Did nepenthes NY/EG have a seconds sale this year? I remember going to one a few years ago and got some good stuff
Holy
wow, what pants are those?
I love the updated fowl vest, more pockets the better
based on the w i d t h i think the're the over pant
(fake) suede looks really nice here
what's the hand like on the poly suede?
I'm not usually a fan of pure synthetics
i haven't handled it. i'm especially curious about the weight, whether it has an authentic heft
maybe @TheComebackKid has?
I actually did haha, my store didnt pick it up but one of my coworkers special ordered one of those vests for himself
It has a nice heft to it, and i think it works perfectly for something like a vest. If my coworker has any more thoughts about it ill let yall know
knew you'd have the intel
@TheComebackKid , out of curiosity, did your shop receive any of the lookbooks/booklets on your FW23 or SS23 shipments? I try to collect them, but none of the shops around me seemed to have gotten any
We did, but i cant remember if we saved any
Hot fabric alert
Jade Iridescent Cotton

Its very soft
You guys get it in the 19th ct?
Yup!

yep, thought the same thing. still not as odd as the adidas collab from a few years ago.
Daiki just really loves heritage brands
I think hes still creative director at barracuta
til Gola still exists?
has anyone seen fitpics of the new oxford pant silhouette? trying to get a feel for it
no fitpics yet. i am also waiting and hoping to see them in that gun club pattern
shoes r sweet
i want a pair of danner boots p bas
bad
Wow those rule
from the Gola post on IG
oh sweet, thought those were the overpant
i thought so too but I think the overpant doesn't have pleats, or does it?
does not, good eye
That’s a lot of pant.
if you're a small/medium here's an old daiki wwm upland jacket https://www.therealreal.com/products/men/clothing/outerwear/woolrich-utility-jacket-izchd

Paraboots are up on nepenthes if anyone was looking to buy the new iteration
Lost & Found too for anyone in Canada
Bout $100 more than normal p-boots here
actually $70 more than normal Clusaz
i think chopper asked the same question somewhere above and got a reply
the reply in question: https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1129407669665538078
Does anyone have an example pics of what they would consider a "great" fitting Bedford jacket?
Depends on how you want to style it.
Their own lookbooks are pretty amazing
With a t-shirt or long sleeve button up with jeans (if that's what you mean by styling). trying to decided between the small which lines up nice with my shoulders and sleeves ending at wrist (albeit not quite a "relaxed" fit). Versus the medium which is a little baggy in the shoulders & torso, and the sleeves go down to my thumb joint
pics would help
I mean are you going fitted / baggy / huge. I wear them like slouchy tailoring so a great fit to me might look too small to you.
#outfit-feedback
it's personal prefernce but i like this bedford sizing
what a good set of fits
love the fbts(?) there
yeah nice clean simple styling that's not trying to do to much
i'm blaking on fbts. fitbits? flowers by the sea?
Are the shoes she's wearing not Visvim FBTs?
ahhh i am not visvim literate
I should have capitalized/been more clear lol nbd
haha it would not have helped me tbh!
🙊
oh interesting laces
those the paras faux? lookin great (though my brain is dead enough today that they could be danners and i'd never know)
they are. ended up copping too. such a cool shoe in person, the green also looks better in person than in the EG photos
I have a combi suit form SS20 in micro sanded twill, I find it nice, maybe a bit lighter than the twill pants I got (they are SS22) and the texture does definitely feel a bit different to the touch but not much, and can be worn next to skin without issue. The one thing to note and surprised me is how much cat hair my combi suit picks up
I'll ask the inevitable: how'd you size
Same as reims. I'm 9E brannock, high instep and got 8.5 UK.
For reference, I am 42 on Michaels
I had the same dilemma and went with a medium, and it’s fine but after having it for 6mo or so a little bigger than I think I would want
But also the sizing has changed a ton over the years and I don’t know exactly when mine is from (it’s secondhand) so 🤷♂️
canoe clubs eg styling is always great
thank you for the suggestion! posted some pics here: https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1131638836485697617/1162552965530402868

The LL Jacket is a classic military style jacket with a rib knit rolled collar and double zip closure for maximum comfort and warmth retention. The easy to wear piece is fully lined and the rib knitting comes down to the cuffs with a contrast color for a great look and classic styling. Fits true to size. Wool Blend Rib
this looks great
the ll vest in this fabric is so sick
yes!
I like the boucle wool stuff too but there's no way it'll get cold enough for any of that this year
800 retail is wow
looks great though
but acrylic wool, like caesar wore
Wool/poly/acrylic blend bombers now going for more than melton/leather bombers did just a few years ago 🙃 . Also heard seasons moving forward are even tougher on pricing. Very few skus of pants under 400$ msrp sort of a thing.
that said i fuckin love this new liner vest https://nepenthesny.com/collections/new-arrivals/products/liner-vest-black-diamond-quilted-polyester
I feel for them, the price hikes have got to be because of production costs imo
I wonder if theyll continue producing everything in nyc
I feel the backlash if they didn't would be huge, its such a big part of their identity
Yeah the romance of “made in New York” is honestly a sizeable part of the appeal of EG for me
Can anyone id this fabric, I don't have any other pics:
Rakuten posting, could it be the charcoal homespun?
nvm, found another posting with more pics:
That's old as hell. Lining and tag tells me probably 2007 to 2009

looks goooood. also as much as i love the new lost & found their change rooms are so bad now! im glad they have a skylight but you can't see shit in there.
They do have the massive mirror right outside, but agreed, the light is weird in the actual fitting room
Yep, loiter and carlyle
too fuckin real. even when you walk out, you've gotta walk to the windows to get any lighting worth a shit
Hope they're given the room that totem was given to create. Timothy's got a good eye, good historical garm context, and could have a lot of fun with it. Holding my breath because a bedford/fatigue combo would be underwhelming and exactly the perfectly safe thing they they've done with like orslow
there's definitely some EG-pilled people on canoe club. I too am hoping for something that goes hard.
To be fair, they did an excellent pair of orslow jeans but they chose the 107 silhouette.... fools
but those show tim's got a good as hell eye!
knowing the kind of eg that chase from cc likes i know it’s gonna be sick
Yeah def some EG heads at CC. Excited to see what they put together

EG Detroit jacket?
enhance
looks cool, light wash denim with a cord collar?
Looks like it?
Wasn't sure if it was denim or blue canvas
i’m excited to see the whole collab
seems like it’s gonna be multiple pieces
Yea, talk of a uniform makes me think it's gonna be a bit more plain tho
G8 jacket good
Looks like the old pathfinder with a better fit. So good
It really feels like a “replace all my other jackets” type jacket
looks like a lot of cool details
always love to see the big diamond elbow patches
looked it up, love the gusseted and vented pits + diamond elbow patches

New Outerwear from UNIQLO, Devised with Engineered Garments.
Parka looks great
Yeah looks like a slightly puffy, more tech-y highland
Can't wait to dig through piles of these on Grailed to find what I'm looking for
Haha sometimes i try looking for the aw18 (or 19?) patchwork bedfords and have to sort through a mountain of fleeces
It's among my favorite 12 things to do
I’m definitely going to grab the fishtail parka
I can’t choose which one I’m going to try to cop. Feeling the bomber but the parka is sweet too.
the fucking polos and fleece zips
jesus christ
the fishtail looks really good
the ladies outfit with the bomber over the hoodie looks really really good
the bomber looks the most “eg” to me but i’ve got a feeling the fabric will be kind of shitty lol
yea thats what I figured too, I wll probably be in on a fishtail parka
i think i’m gonna go green fishtail and brown utility jacket
my wife wants the fishtail in black so we can be cute in our matching jackets
Am I crazy? I feel like the bomber is the only one with different styling than the base item. Like I don't get the fishtail parka from Uniqlo instead of buying a M-65 or M-51 here. Hell Alpha Industries makes some dupes of the parkas that honestly look really similar for similar prices.
The base items don't have EG on the label ☝️🤓
I'll round this out with wanting the gray fishtail
the gray is sick but i already have a gray goldwin parka haha
I don't think these collabs are ever supposed to be amaaaaazing. I see them as a touch of eg added to uniqlo that's more accessible
this
and to add to that this collab feels more EG than the past two
there’s some cool little details on the jackets and i know the silhouette will work well with all the EG stuff i’ve already got
i also like that they’re all down jackets so i can add some variety to my outerwear without spending like $1.3k on an eg down jacket lol
yeah the 3 snaps on the bomber and the back pockets on the utility are extra eg
the green is alsos ick but I already have a barbour eg jacket 😫
don't think they're down -- think it's uniqlo pushing their proprietary heattech branded polyfill (pufftech). still same effect though. Curious to hear how it all feels in hand
ahhhh, hopefully it’s still pretty warm
Not sure of you're still looking but someone is selling one on SF

there’s an L on grailed but it’s way overpriced

Canoe Club x Engineered Garments Collaboration
Introducing the canoe club x engineered garments collaboration We have long been Engineered Garments fans here at Canoe Club, and at this point, who isn't? In fact, EG was one of the first brands we carried since we first opened our doors six years ago. The way the brand elegantly blends modern sophistication with clas
A bit of baracuta snuck in there too.
Ink looks good 👍
you nerds that guessed a basic outfit were right
but I don't hate it
they look really good
that chase dude makes EG look great
I like the jacket better than the pants
It's good but it's Wallace and Barnes core
Not saying that with any shade. Fits the customer of theirs that I picture in my head very well. Also love that they went somewhere new with a jacket silhouette. Fatigues were inevitable
Storm colorway has a nice 'looks like light wash denim but isn't' quality that could work well as a jeans alternative
Ehhhhh
Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
it’s kind of lame…
I don't mind the storm fatigues but the Harrington jackets are pretty lame
It's pretty whelming
Also kinda disappointed. Not very engineered.
One criticism I have for eg jackets is that the collars are flimsier than id like
The aviator jacket fits great but it does feel like the collar is going to be the first to go

EG X CANOE CLUB
https://shopcanoeclub.com/blogs/editorial/canoe-club-x-engineered-garments
If you have any questions about fit, styling, materials, or just want to talk shop about the...
I’m in awe of this brand because they convinced people to pay premium prices for polyester blend clothing
Lol
I was hesitant but the poly blends really are different once you handle it in person. for the aviator jacket I have, the poly coats the outside of the cotton fabric so its poly "waxed". Feels just like a waxed jacket but can be washed by hand.
only a sith deals in absolutes
Actually I can't even afford
Go off
Haha looks like I pissed some people off. I’m sure the clothes are great, and they do have cool designs. It would’ve been better to ask people their opinion on the synthetic blends rather than come in with the hot take 😂
I love a good context free hot take
Actually I’m going to NYC this weekend, any good in person shops that sell EG?
Nepenthes NY is the EG shop
I thought it was a good take
Probably the shop that has the most/only complete array of products outside of specific collabs.
EG has a this thing where people don’t second guess what they buy and only buy because EG
Yea I hurt some feelings
I’m speaking from experience
My own little point of view
im not sure if blind loyalty is driving people to buy $600 pants. i think they genuinely like them
But if I see something that retails for $3-400 and it’s polyester I’m gonna do a joker laugh
don't look at homme plisse then.
Idk if you can compare EG to the innovative pleats but go off
i mean if we're doing sweeping statements i was just pointing out that it's not as simple as "polyester bad"
y'all are the ones coming into a brand thread shit talking
it's not even as simple as "let people enjoy things" it's "if you have a point make it"
Damn my bad bro I’ll see myself out of this conversation
Isn’t the implication that we’re fools?
Which I am but for different reasons
Reacts are telling me to hop back into this convo
I'm a fool for that polyester
I bought the EG Uniqlo polo and felt like a fool because I didn’t know EG at the time and went tts instead of sizing down
owned
they got size charts foo
im not as big of eg fanboy but personally my perspective is that they know what they're doing rather than, they're cheating their customers
They do 100% cotton, and 100% wool on some items. They aren't more expensive.
The fabric blends strike me as part of the whole "engineered" ethos of the brand.
This is crazy cause I feel like most of the EG I see is natural fibers anyway. Feel like this is a weird strawman from people who don't understand textiles ngl.
In that if your kneejerk reaction to EG is "I won't buy that because it's polyester" youre looking at the wrong brand in the first place
In general more expensive designer and designer adjacent brands I'm more likely to trust their textile choice
in more recent years there def has been a shift to more synthetic blends, but also the synthetic blend stuff thats been coming out recently have been really nice
from a lot of different brands too
I don’t check the material composition of EG I just buy it
this is kind of uninspired trolling
EG living rent free in imbads head
it lives rent free in mine
My bad. I actually do not really check with EG. that’s why my previous messages said that people don’t second guess EG and said it was from my own experiences and my narrow perspective.
then why are you here???
I resent the implication that I don't second and third guess every decision i've ever made
I’m saying I like EG and I own multiple items from them but thats also why I’m critical of it
ahh ok, misread your comment.
nah you're literally trolling, not saying anything of substance, just trying to get people riled up
The dog piling riled me up my bad 😞
it's ok. trolling can be entertaining. but you're just like "you guys are dummies, joker laugh" and that's just kinda meh
Oh the joker laugh comment was because I’d still buy them
Realizing what I said didn’t come out well because I just woke up.
my bad, too. i'm grumpy because i'm out of fun sized snickers
also i think they changed the composition of kit-kats because they don't seem as good as they used to be
Fun sized Kit Kats don’t taste the same as full sized ones
in your defense, ive often misinterpreted imbad's comments cause usually it's debative in the beginning then not, and i just take that inital tone with the comments that follow
That’s fair! It’s usually self reflective where I’m talking trash about myself but comes off as I’m talking bad about everyone else lol
After trying a dozen different kit kat flavors from Japan the OG ones don't hit as hard
why do y'all get so mad when someone disagrees with you 😭
https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1129407669665538078/1168883081344720967
This is pretty inflammatory in a brand thread lol
oh no, its on my side too. i just need to chill and not relate words to feeling based on my own interpretations
I’ve been wanting a cotton ripstop vest from eg for some years and similars model has only been released in poly/nylon/nyco since then shiny
but everyone's getting mad at @imbadatusernames. the other guy just left right away
cause the other guy stopped talking
I also don't really care enough to debate fabric makeup with dudes on the internet so don't loop me in with this
Jimi no 😭
who's mad?
my take: i like eg stuff so i buy it
just to chime in on kit kats real quick, america kit kats are gross and don't even taste like chocolate.
i don’t really care what a bunch of dorks on the internet think lol
now i'm mad
the best candy bar is take 5
now you're crazy
now known as reese’s take 5
no hear him out
kit kats are universally good but the american ones have this artificial hershey taste compared to the canadian ones is all im saying.
its delicious
i had one with breakfast and it's fine
i also really like the CC collab and plan on getting the light blue setup
please send canadian and japanese kit-kats
heard it was invented in the uk
you can’t go wrong with a classic snickers bar tho
butyric acid, makes it taste like 🤮
i'm a twix man but i'm truly not that picky
i used to live near the canadian nestle plant and the whole neighbourhood smelled like hot chocolate some nights, it ruled
anyway sorry for the diversion
blessed
my take on fabrics is i only really know what does or doesn't feel bad or look bad and like smiles (i think?) said, i tend to just trust the designer at a certain point
plus with a brand like EG, I actually kinda feel the opposite as was said up top and figure if something wack comes out y'all will probably speak on it
i’ve got some of the fake wool stuff and it’s basically really dense fleece
it feels nice and it’s pretty warm
yea i’ve definitely talked shit on bad eg stuff
like that horrible hatchet collab
idk how a brand that makes cool stuff and a store that i think generally nails it came up with this lol
i’d wear it, it would match by leopard print slip on vans
it would be sick if the pants weren't tan
so there was contrast
like make the pants olive or black
and that fucks
I love those
i think someone here has those? they looked good i thought.
not something i'd wear
i like the fa pants in general but this just feels like such a lazy collab to me
I unironically love and own these. I also got them in the hatchet sale for like $100 cos clearly no fucker brought them.
it does sort of feel like "we had this scrap of animal print left over" but i think it can work
a lot of collabs feel like that to me but i think that also just makes sense
yea no shade to anyone that can rock them
they are just not for me and i expected hatchet supply to do something cooler
unsurprisingly have seen and reacted to it, i love it
lean into something outdoorsy or something
Need them to bring back the white EG x vans. I ran mine into the ground
saaaaame
i’ve been babying mine the last few years
speaking of collabs, it’s not eg but it is designed by daiki
They were the only pair of shoes I wore when I was walking 10 miles a day for a year and they went pretty quick
this baracuta x barbour hits
That fucks
I would spend $1000 on that easily if I had that kind of money
Umbrella pocket is insane
i’m very tempted but i don’t think i will unless it hits sale haha
$6-700 is reasonable imo
yea for sure
i know id wear it all the time haha
Would have to retire the arcy for that
dumb question but what are all the little d-rings on the front intended for?
you can hook stuff on them, carabiners, hats, keychains
I figured but I was curious if there was some specific use.
Fish
ofc, so obv
that umbrella scabbard is so powerful, should be mandatory in any raincoat
Climbing shoes
Pretty sure like cdf the original use is fish. With my small amount of knowledge it looks like a wading jacket/fishing jacket with the crop but I also could just be talking out of my ass
I thought the fish comment was a joke? Surprised they didn't put a poachers pocket on the back
D rings are so you can hang fishing hooks from them
Common on fishing vests and used Barbour Spey which is a wading jacket style Barbour
If it’s got 3d pockets on the front and a d ring it’s probably fishing related or inspired
damn i missed troll bait and instead got a good as hell link to a killer barbour jacket. great link there evolsihc
reminds me of that good as hell photographer vest that eg did in like 09
an all timer eg piece!!!
i don’t think i’ve ever seen the green 😍
they did a blanket wool lined one too! i think that's the green
damn
i’ve got a new impossible find to obsess over haha
fwiw the black is for sale in small;. can't remember people's sizes anymore. https://www.ebay.com/itm/305081541284
eBay
Engineered Garments Photographer Vest Black Size S Used From Japan ...
Shoulder (cm) : Width ( cm ) : 51 Sleeve Length ( cm ) : Length(cm) : 63. There are scratches and stains. B. No noticeable scratches or stains. A. Very good condition.
there were a lot of cheap navy ones on resale last year that i had considered buying to dye black but now they’re all gone 😭
I’d probably need an L or XL
might buy that small for my wife and live vicariously through her haha
Damn that might just fit me 👀
Umbrella pocket is
Honest question, why does a photographer vest have an umbrella pocket? Would photographer stuff have large pockets for lenses like the kapital pants
it's just a name, who cares
No need to be rude 🙂
It’s probably based on some old photog jacket Daiki found that either already had an umbrella pocket or he thought it would look cooler with one
to protect the camera 💯
if it starts raining idk
personally i’d probably put a lightsaber or perhaps a large water bottle there
every pocket of the garment must be considered and have a purpose relevent to the name. we cannot have anything because it's simply interesting
it was an honest question tbf lol
insane rule from the person who has spent the last four hours shitposting in this thread
oh shit it could be for a tripod
never in my life have I attached a fishing hook to a d-ring. It's useful to hang other stuff off of tho. esp for fly fishing where you just have a bunch of stuff to carry with you that you need to access during an outing
That’s what I’m saying. I was interested in how the design and name fit together
real answer is probably just that daiki loves pockets
He the pocket pharaoh
3' hoagie pocket

ad | gift • canoe club x engineered garments launches this friday!
❉
whenever i’m considering anything new for my wardrobe (gift or purchase), i always try to think of it in 3-5 outfit combinations—to avoid a wardrobe full of stuff i don’t wear!
so here i am, getting the club jacket and fatigue pants acquainted with the rest of my wardrobe. ...
Instagram
If Susan likes it, I like it
Simple as that 🫡
need more $5 footlong pockets on garments
Wow she makes it look so much more compelling than the official shoot imo!
Susan is my goat
I kinda don’t mind that but my taste is sus, and think someone here owns it
Classic canoe club
I can understand people not vibing with the blend fabrics eg uses but all i can say is
Dont knock it til youve tried it
i have a sorta blend wool eg chore jacket
it obviously woolen but sorta stretchy and bouncy
the way they blend with synthetic make it interesting, not a cost cutting measurement
I remember questioning the poly blend and I think the brands reasoning was that was part of their recycled cotton initiative
How much I buy that, I dunno. But I'm still buying EG so whatever
The only poly blend I have is the CP waffle fatigues and I will say the fabric is nice in hand. But I bought them NWT off Grailed for pennies on the dollar, wouldn’t have bought them for retail
i was unsure of the poly blend stuff until 2019 when I got to handle (and subsequently buy) a floral jaquard madison parka. i've used it a lot over the years and it's holding up pretty well after 4 fall/winters of wear. i'd have zero issues/doubts buying this at retail again.

Buy BARBOUR X BARACUTA CLAYTON WAX JACKET OLIVE by Barbour x Baracuta online at The Bureau Belfast with worldwide shipping.
wayyyyy better price than the baracuta website
Yeah, TBB usually has 15% ish sales mid and end of season too
doesn't look like it'll last though they are already sold out in M
Damn that’s a really good price
Too international customers get the price without VAT? Because tbb price is like £14 cheaper than the Baracuta site for me.
I'm seeing 625
Yeah, that's what I'm seeing, £639 on baracuta & Barbour sites.
baracuta site is pricier for me
Ah.
yea it was like $1000 last time i checked
vs tbb
that's cheaper and no vat
yea great deal
looks like the upland jacket I have, more patch pockets but similar DNA
Have the photog vest on the way 😎
what's the deal with that barbour x baracuta? I know daiki is the CD for baracuta now, but is he doing a full-fledged collection under the brand now like he did with WWM?
i believe he’s doing capsule collections and collabs
My patchwork Bedford fits again! I gained 40 lbs, lost 20 but gained some muscle. It hasn't fit me since 2019/early 2020
Post fit!
It's not 100% fitting but it's pretty darn close
I also have spring/summer in navy
green is bold as hell in the best way, navy looks like a good, slightly off-kilter sport coat. both rock and color me envious as they look great on ya. deep cut with that 19thct floral too on the navy
The 19th century floral was from the EG sample sale. I miss those.
everything fits really nicely here
Yah, old pic. I got rid of the wallabies because they were not comfortable
I should buy another EG jacket.......
Yes
you rock them both really well! is the olive one twill with corduroy patches?
I think it's twill, velvet, and cord
The navy is ripstop
i had never seen that combo. it looks really cool.
I used to have the fatigues in the same fabric as your navy bedford. unfortunately they stopped fitting me so i had to let them go.
I have the winter version of the navy and love it. Cord, velvet and double cloth.
Starting to fade a bit now though.
i like the faded look
That's what it is. Double cloth
The navy was the first thing I bought from EG and I think was my second expense purchase
everyone remembers their first
can confirm that the cc x eg collab is sick
will post fit later 👀
did you get the set?
yea i got the blue set
nice
i kinda want the black jacket as well but idk if i wanna spend all that money haha
for sure. i already got a couple of things at retail this season and think i might wait and see if this stuff makes it to sale time (i doubt it)
i think it’s gonna go pretty fast unfortunately haha
i could maybe see the pants making it to sale but no way the jackets do
yeah, unless they ordered a larger than usual amount of them.
That blue is so nice
yEa BuT iTs pOlY bLeNd
if anyone is going to cop when they come online, canoe does have a 15% off code, STYLEFORUM15
goat canoe club for always having that
the code doesn’t work on the collab haha
sometimes they let you stack too, kinda depends on who's answering questions that day
haha, too bad, still good code to have in general.
did you get early access or is the shop close to you?
early access pre-order
Don’t bait me lol
Damn that’s the best discount I’ve seen so far from them
YOU HAVE BEEN SUMMONED
I saw some influencers were getting 10%
I said yeah poly blend is usually a nono but eg is so cool that people (me) don’t care about that and just buy lol
Reading comprehension is a skill
I'm from kentucky, and I can confidently confirm this
George bush will suffer for his crimes. No child left behind was a disaster
ANYWAYS the EG collabs and related ones have been going crazy recently
They are very not affordable though imo
it makes me wonder who's buying the real expensive stuff at those prices?
gotta make it to grailed for $200 somehow
$500 for a loiter? I'm good
🙋
Exactly! I’ll buy it on grailed in 2-3 years
i buy 2-3 things at rtail every season, also to support the shops where i go to.
yea same
ok but the high ticket items?
i’ve been buying eg for so long that i don’t need to buy a bunch each year
i got the paraboot collab and the boucle loiter
I understand buying EG for retail because things do not pop up as often as I would like. I also don’t have a shop near me that sells EG
i basically buy a few things at retail or retail + discount code and then anything cheap and cool that i see on grailed/ebay/whatever
Do you know what time they’ll be online?
kinda reached the point where I buy very little each year so I guess if that one item came up I could get behind new pricing
10 am mst
In person? I would be a monster if i@could try their stuff in person. The main issue why I don’t buy stuff for retail@is because I buy everything online and don’t want to take an L
yea that’s where i’m at
i’ve got 2 cool stores in the twin cities i like to support
yup
yep, got 3 local EG retailers in Toronto
local shop just started carrying orslow probably because I kept telling them it would sell
notre has a 30% off code rn and i’m fighting off the urge to buy this
I’m living in the wrong country
we had a shop a few years ago that carried EG and it never sold
I need to find a store I can pressure like that
I guess I need to make good though and go buy orslow from them now
i’ve got together and blackblue
don't buy it, notre takes 800000 years to ship and cancels half their orders. their logistics are fucked if you aren't buying in store
haha yea i’ve had them cancel shit before
if i still lived in chicago i’d def buy in person
i've had bad experiences with notre as well.
online
sent wrong size, didnt fill custom forms correctly, stuff like that
beautiful store to visit though
they are constantly hurting for funds. rumor was last fall/winter they got stuff so late because they couldn't get a loan they were waiting for. They put up fall 22 stuff in like March this year. insane shit
i pretty much only buy from together (no eg but great buys, cool new store) and black blue locally, then totem, canoe club and the nepenthes web store at this point lol
i was wondering what was up with that, their web store was essentially empty at one point in time
essentially empty now lol
i stopped checking them as much when they cancelled my cdg cologne order haha
they got their EG buy online 2 months after the same pieces delivered to everyone
I went to the actual totem shop and it was such a bad vibe
i wonder if their new location set them up for failure haha
notre’s
it’s very cool but couldn’t have been cheap
The closest place to me that stocks EG is in New Mexico lol
I do love that they make huge buys and everything hits sale deeply
i’ve never been to totem but they have great buys and cool collabs
right? setting up in the west loop with a massive footprint and having an insanely large warehouse dedicated to just them? Also notre was trying to expand to a second chicaog location and into LA
they also stock beams boy which is my wife’s fav brand
Collabs are great
lotta tea about how shit notre is floating through the rumor mill
agreed
my first EG buy was on a Texas trip
a store called By George used to carry them
in Austin
I tried to go to TBB once, I did not realise it's in a part of Belfast that is less than psyched about people from my part of the island. Did not come to a full stop and kept on rolling lol.
TBB and Kafka are prob the best EG stockists in europe
maybe Norse Store as well
End?
i don’t really fuck with end haha
They used to be good but never look at it because duties are insane for Canada
End blows
Weird buys
Good discounts sometimes
Oh yeah I’ve heard of that store! It’s now one of those places where everything is like $600+
bluebutton was a surprise to visit. much much smaller than i expected
Maybe always has been
I've picked up 19th century shirts for <50%
Awful discounts!
They always have stuff from several season ago at full price!
I think end and mrporter gouge people from the US
Which I guess I don’t really care about tbh, cuase if anything I end up buying 1 thing a year at retail
Either way I do like that smaller store have a vision when they buy
have to mention my old friend independence
probably the first real EG stockist I went to
their buys have really reduced though
Awesome store too I love going when I’m Chicago
I feel like every B&M place is struggling
But their website doesn’t work on any browser…
not a single one
I’ve emailed them several times cause I can only access it via clicking a link on the Instagram app and using the inapp browser
I thought it was just me being a stubborn firefox nerd
Doesn’t work on chrome either
Independence
Engineered Garments Trail Shirt Blackwatch Cotton Flannel
100% cotton flannel shirt with five chest pockets: three patch pockets with button flaps and two hidden pockets with top and side entry. Left arm has button flap pocket, right arm has pocket with side entry. Shirt also has two metal d-rings, back yoke, and expandable collar with buttons. In other words, very EG.Runs big. See measurements.
another full price purchase i’ve been considering haha
i think it’ll hit sale tho
That link loads but none of the links on that page work
Now that’s an EG shirt
I like this a lot
click the item name, not the image
the image links are messed up for me
item name, brand name, the links at the top. None work.
none of it works for me either
can't add to cart, can't view other images
nothing
Yeah same
This totally spun me out when I visited. Super bad vibes. Glad there's a shop in the city centre now.
do you have an ad blocker? i noticed i turned ublock origin for them, so I might had been getting errors at some point
I'm glad I wasn't being precious. It's not subtle, there's murals everywhere.
And the fucking "peace wall" is like two streets over if you walk in.
What does this mean?
Ireland/Northern Ireland stuff?
It's in a very unionist anti-republican area of Belfast. Like VERY unionist.
Belfast is an incredibly sectarian divided city in parts and TBB sits in a very very aggressively militant area of the city.
These terms probably mean something different overseas
(TBB is on the unionist/British/Protestant area)
Got it
99% of the city is neutral, I had a great time there that weekend.
The way y’all were talking i thought it was the opposite
Unionists are the UK loving guys.
This is like 200m down the street from TBB : https://maps.app.goo.gl/QQ8JVao7NFkEPtrE7

hopefully it’s the cheap rent haha
I wouldn't like to think they're broadcasting their stance. TBB city centre shop is good but doesn't have as near as much as the other one. The other one isn't in the best of areas granted, but it seems to be getting better as new bars/taprooms/restaurants are opening up around it. In staying that, you'll not get any trouble there if you're just going about your normal day visiting a clothes shop
Also I'd would say 99% of the people that live in the area don't have a clue what that shop is/that it's even near where they live
Yeah, it must be a cheap rent thing. I think the original shop front was where Envoy now is in the city centre. Moved to that location later/when they needed a warehouse.
Definitely. I didn't even know they had a shop outside of the city centre one at first. Always assumed the other one was just a warehouse (because of the area, thinking who would want to go there).
Still blows my mind that a shop like that is in Belfast to be honest
That it opened in 1989 is the wildest part to me.
I'll have to give it another go when I have a budget again. It's only a 2hr drive.
Rodger fed me whiskey when I went. Worth it for that.
Though maybe not if you're driving.
wallace and barnes out here immediately with the canoe club x eg dupe
Haven't they had jackets like that basically every season since forever?
Also the cut on the EG jacket is lightyears ahead
yeah, i'm mostly poking some fun
I think he's funnin
damn my b
fun ruiner today
love tim and chase, great dudes and a great kit but obligated to poke some fun
I wanna get a loopy zipper pull on mine 👀
EG jacket is boxy and cropped. The pic of the j crew one looks longer and slimmer
I must go more often after hearing this, only 10 mins walk for me
A flat-lay is a really tough way to critique but the J Crew jacket is longer in the body and more slim cut. Generally just more standard and boring. The EG one is boxy and cropped which is more fun and interesting on that style of coat imo.
IME the j crew is pretty wide and cropped too though
Neither are actually "bad". The J Crew one is ideal for their clientelle and the EG on is perfect for theirs. I'm not buying either so I'm just being hyperbolic about the one that's more ✨ interesting ✨
Yeah the flat-lay is like the worst way to make this call
They're both basically copycats of Carhartt jackets though
These are harrington clones lol
Barracuta G9s
not Detroit clones
imo
They are shades of the same in nearly every way, but the difference will be in how to style. Intentionally longer sleeves on the EG one, more option for tapering. EG jackets typically cut a bit more of a straight or even A silhouette, whereas jcrew will be a typical V taper (even if not drastic). From there, it's about the details -- the zip, the signature snaps at the hem, the lining, the slant on the check pocket, the internal pockets, and styling it as a match with the fatigues
I stand corrected
You are in fact right now that I checked the details on the G9
Pretty gentle foot in mouth for smiles as they go 😹
Worth the EG price for double zippers
The goated zipper arrangement
and the lining that won't make ya smell like shit after wearing it for an hour
fuck poly linings
poly blend linings tho? not opening that convo again
Imo, the Wallace and Barnes one is probably pretty good, I’d wear it
i got da full kit
call me Mr. Wallace Barnes
Mr. Barnes sir
It would be more obvious in direct side-by-side wearing
someone who isn't into the hobby is gonna say "nice knockoff carhartt" to either jcrew or eg
either way, you win
This begs the question of who is the hobbiest hobbyist
In a general sense, probably EG heads
the hobbiest hobbyist is the person who buys a rep balenciaga detroit https://www.reddit.com/r/QualityReps/comments/17ajvzx/balenciaga_detroit_canvas_jacket_from_cupid_club/

I love the top zipper pull too
Double
I made a reel for the store talking about this jacket that ill link when it drops
Im obsessed with it
It was hard to do the reel because I dont want the medium to sell before I can buy it
i know this feel
it's got the most important detail: vent holes for your pits
Haha i mentioned that!
Truly engineered
When are they gonna engineer vent holes for your crotch
There's an underwear brand made for big boys that has a mesh gusset
Comedy is apparently illegal in here
I laughed
do the holes on a perforated knockabout short count?
Tfw is more engineered
maybe more architected
i remember someone said that rich owens is to fashion what brutalism is to architecture and it makes a lot of sense.
im trying to think what style would eg be but dnt know enough about architecture
That barracuta Barbour is groverhaus
Only if they allow proper air flow
what style is the winchester house?
Oh shit they got pay in 4 👀👀
Looking at more EG jackets when I just got this bedford lmao
are those pay in 4 things legit?
i heard they fuck up your credit or smth
It’s debt so it can ding your credit (I’ve never done it)
oh wack
Only some and that’s really if you miss the payment
I’d Google the one you use before you use it
Klarna and Stripe are prolly the biggest
i've used a few just because why not
klarna, paybright
they dont impact your credit unless you don't pay them back
Sezzle is the other one I think here
easy to abuse though and get carried away, ive only used it like 2-3 times
yah it's a little confusing but the pay in 4 things generally don't do a hard inquiry on your credit right? (which is what would ding your credit score)
i know paypal's pay in 4 doesn't
you'd use them to stretch out your cash flow which can be helpful though i don't like the aspect of making it seem like you're spending less
nope, at most they do a soft credit check and there's 0% interest. no impact on your credit at all.
but it's a real slippery slope if you're careless with it
they bank on people not making the payment
for sure, and considering how easy it is to fall into consumer debt and how many people have it im assuming it's probably working. because of how i budget it doesn't make sense to use it often but i have tried it a few times. i like that you can pay it off lump sum whenever if you want.
from what i remember reading, they're a lot less profitable than they were expected to be lol

The New York Times
‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ Is the Victim of its Own Success
What once seemed like attractive economics have been upended by increasing competition and rising interest rates.
It’s the rising interest rates that killed them.
Source: I worked at Stripe
that rules, even though i've used 'em it's predatory and shitty
if i'm being honest im a little surprised at the number of people here that have utilized them
V interesting. I interned on a bank trading desk making markets in interest rate swaps. But back to EG lol
As with most/all low-interest loans it’s better to do that than pay it lump-sum technically bc you get to beat inflation and technically pay less IF you keep it all@in check and make payments
Can’t believe I got goaded into finance chat in the EG channel
lmao whoops
i get that that's mathematically true, but the exposure for a jacket isn't worth it for me
what about an engineered jacket
Yeah that’s the correct choice imo
that changes everything
especially when you can just save a little each month for 4 months and buy a $500 jacket
but again this is the EG channel not the r/PF channel lol
What's the coolest camp collar EG has done?
I didn't really like the crepe cotton one when I checked it out
We are talking about how to afford EG
Like ever?
Didn't mean to word it like that but that would be interesting to hear too lol
Meant like any camp collar shirts ug think are cool
and what are y'all's EG goals item wise?
You creating a wishlist benji?
lol yah sortve. i heard today that EG did a sample sale in NY like 2 yrs ago btw. i want a second bedford in a midweight cotton i think, and a camp shirt before next summer. i've seen flap pocket linen-cotton pants that i think they make in a number of fabrics as well but i need to first figure out if there is a cheaper source of flap pocket pants in various fabrics. i already copped tropical poly-wool flap pocket military pants from the thrift recently and i have flap pocket relaxed chinos from j crew
EG bombers be so cool too
i think they call the ones with flap pockets oxford pants
I’m really just a big fan of bedford and similar jackets.
Haven’t dug too deep into the brand
Just liked random things here and there on grailed

Jungle Fatigue Jacket 'Olive Cotton Sheeting'
Engineered Garments | SKU: 23S1D047 23S1D047 OLIV
yah it costs too much for me unless it's secondhand or deep deep on sale.
that jungle fatigue jacket i linked is so sick
Same that’s why I just look on grailed and eBay
Yeah that’s a pretty sick jacket. Look like a jungle highlighter
Ive used pay in 4 with no problems but i only do one payment plan at a time to make sure I don’t get over my head
But i think the trouble with them comes when they encourage you to finance things that dont really need to be financed
Alumni does do “extra 30% off of sale items” pretty often. Subscribe to their mailing list or keep your eyes on the site
Victorian and Gothic-style according to Wikipedia, and that house does seem to fit pretty well
I knoww, I'm waiting for that to happen again for a particular item actually
I was mostly joking about the winchester house, how it was constantly added to with extraneous details (staircases to nowhere = little pockets inside pockets)
I'd rather think of eg as craftsman style, rugged and durable with purposeful, functional details
the association i made between the two is less about the extraneous aspects and more about the quirks and fun parts of the house. while the designs are laser focused and intentional, when the garment gets to me, a lot of those details get adapted into something they weren't made for, like putting my credit card in my hat's pocket and tap on the card's reader with it, or using my work shirts exclusively when i am not working
btw i had never heard of the winchester house but it's now on the bucket list of my future west coast road trip.
side note, the climbing pants from this season are so underrated
i’ve had mine for a bit now and they’re becoming my favorite pants
I want those bad
In the duck canvas
Cause I have the aircrew pants in the same heavy ripstop
But I need another pair of double knees like I need a hole in my head
they’re so simple but the details are so good
the zip pocket on the hip is the perfect wallet pocket
i want it on all of my pants now
They are beastmode
are they the first thing that eg has done with velcro? can't remember much else
they might be
i can’t think of anything either
The black climbing pants look awesome. I’ve been looking at much cheaper options tho like gramicci
i wish gramicci had options without the built in belt
I don’t mind it I think. My main hang up is +$300 for pants
that’s fair
i’ve got a few pairs of gramicci and think they’re just alright
I could def be convinced tho

Damn $100 before shipping that’s wild
What sort of fit are the fatigue pants? Or do they change depending on the year?
I think theyre a good middle ground between the more tailored andover pant and the loose FA / climbing pant fit
Theyre high rise with a straight leg
nice one thanks
Would say a few years back they were pretty heavily tapered (my mainline ones from 2019 are for example).

ventile 🫦 i like it more than gabagool
I like those pants
Jacket falls a little flat for whatever reason. Not bad, just eh
just read into it further -- these are MIJ by the normal pilgrim factory. surprised by that a bit! Not good or bad, just surprised (and explains the pricing)
Pants are cool. Ventile though 🤮
I read something bad about ventile, better to just have waxed cotton or cotton-nylon
Well Dressed Dad - It is a proper menswear blog. Like, with original words and opinions and suchlike.
Ventile, the ugly facts they don't tell you about this remarkable f...
The fabric marketed as Ventile has experienced something of a comeback in recent times. Much hoopla is made, but there are important aspects not mentioned. Ventile is a brand name used by the Swiss Stotz, who also market it as etaProof.
Eh, ventile is no better/worse than Goretex or similar really. It just feels horrible to me.
unless you have experience with any of the 3 i wouldn’t be so quick to say what is better or isn’t
It just seemed like something I wouldn't want because of the PFCs
i have ventile (stotz) waxed cotton, and nyco jackets. Ventile is great for light rain conditions
If you buy any waterproof jackets they all have pfcs via dwr applications, most are not eco friendly
The article said some ventile is just waxed cotton which sounds good
The marketing of Ventile has been shady af, but basically most water-resistant shells are gonna have similar problems with pfc/dwr/chemicals.
it’s not waxed cotton
ventile fibers swell with water saturation which is how you get the water resistant effects
it turns into straight up cotton cardboard lol
That's cool lol
Let's be real too -- these are pieces you should buy if you like the piece, not because you're looking for something High Performance and Waterproof. Ventile in this context is mostly just riding on the 2011 era hype behind it as a "heritage" fabric.
Sshh, I'm buying a Cabourn Mallory jacket for my Everest trip.
I view Ventile the same way I view Goretex. but yes i like my cotton cardboard jacket in the rain tyvm (it feels awful)
Fun fact, Pilgrim gets all its stuff manufactured by Beams
It's owned by beams
I noticed this when browsing beam's outlet website
that rocks and is very good, beams is many things but exceptional in mfg and QA for a great $ is highest on my list
My fatigues arrived
fuuuuck these things are nice
which fatigues did you get?
grey herringbone
oh my
Nice, EG fatigues cut is great
ssense's EG styling always looks weird to me
yeah, ssense have weird styling in general

Just copped these 😮💨
black qlo parka inbound
Bought these the other day
what are ya gonna put in the ankle pocket
Maybe some treats to lure dogs over to me
What model are these? Ankle pocket goes hard
Flight pant in wool cotton flannel
Can you fly in them?
I think when you open up all the pockets you can
That would be gas
Flight pants are great. Got 2 pairs but the moleskin one is a bit too warm for me here in the south
Is this a safe space for Uniqlo x EG?
unfortunately
Not sure if I like XL or L
Gas
personally prefer the L
like the way it fits on the shoulders more
not a noticeable difference to me. would you ever layer a sweater under there and need the extra space
There's definitely a world where I'd wear a sweater under this yea
Got these bad boys otw
Pilgrim surf supply turning the heater on
Those rule
Dang those fatigues rip
Yea he shoulda got ripstop
Ok i didnt pay much attention to the new qlo collab but
The parka looks nice
Might go check it out the next time im near a uniqlo
reversible coat is nice. was this one waxed?
yea I think thats what the stories said
I remember that coat, it was wool on the outside, and like a ventile on the inside maybe
they must've waxed the inside
Does waxing it not make it no longer reversible?
Idk if I'd want waxed cotton against me?
I def wouldnt
Anybody see the qlo parka in person yet?
I did. it was a little lighter weight than i expected
Yahh I felt it but didn't try it
I thought it was a decent weight but I've never felt the mainline ones for reference
That’s wild and cool. I have one in olive and it’s wool and cotton twill, but I think the natural outside is the twill side
@rej @Benjiara I like the silhouette but might need to see if it’s worth it in person
yea i'm holding off for the same
i bet there's examples on IG
just check on the uniqlo site that it's in stock at the one you're going to
Good call
yah i've noticed the smaller ones may not have a lot of the collab items
I tried on all the Uniqlo collab jackets yesterday. Despite the parka being my favourite online, it was my least favourite in person. The fabric is real smooth and it reads very technical to me. Looks more like a raincoat than I expected. The silhouette is cool though and it kind of makes me want a fishtail parka but I think this one's just not for me.
The utility jacket was the standout to me though. I low key want to sell my green Patagonia parka that fits too slim on me and buy the green utility jacket.
I liked the cut of the bomber but the texture of the polyester exterior kinda ruins it for me. Feels like Halloween fake spiderwebs in hand. I also liked the utility jacket but neglected to try it on
I’m interested in the utility one too, do you find it warm enough for a 0 to 5 degree Celsius winter ?
That's gonna totally vary person to person and what you're wearing under it
A sweater and an OCBD
Still highly personal, some dudes wear shorts at 35-45 degrees freedom. Probably fine but I can't make any comment to your cold tolerance
Ok thanks I will try it in store
Yeah definitely try it on! I run pretty hot so I might not be the best to comment. I think it would do totally fine at 0-5 C for me.
Thank you
Some people from the Midwest do this and call it a personality
Lol
it's a big thing here too
older white canadian dudes who are like "im not cold, i grew up at the hockey rink"
like ok bud but i know you're cold
you guys were spot on for the uniqlo x eg parka -- cool piece but definitely more "uniqlo" than "eg" in person
No uniqlo in my state
🥲
lmao
they have like the same styles as the uniqlo items but mainline EG on ebay
Bought a pair of rip stop fatigues. I’m a medium across the board but these things fit huge. Anyone ever shrink these through washing/drying or something? Or should I just pass them on to someone who can fill them out? Don’t want to mess with them if it’s a fruitless endeavor and rather keep them in a solid state for their next owner
Where are they huge?
Waist/top block
medium in EG usually equals a 34
you might just need a size down
i got the fishtail and i’m pretty happy with it for the price
definitely not as good as mainline stuff but it’ll get worn
Yeah they won’t shrink enough if you need a smaller size
Thanks
Yeah eg pants are huge. I’m a 32 and the small sort of almost fits when I haven’t been exercising.
so @evolsirhc you like the parka? Mine is waiting to be picked up
yessir!
green size L for me, black XS for my wife
long parka or utility jacket?
the long fishtail parka
its replacing an older winter parka for me
jackets going down to your knees rules
i really like how long it is
it’s funny reading the reviews on the uniqlo site about the sizing being too big
that’s how it’s supposed to be!
I want big coat
and only big coat will do
i'd been looking at the blouson and utility jackets... maybe i need to think about what my life might look like with big coat in it
I bought a super nice long wool coat a couple years ago that goes just past my knees and it was a revelation
i got rid of my long wool coat coat a few years ago because i was mostly biking to work
wish i wouldn’t have now that i’m mostly WFH 😭
I got an 18east long wool coat last year and love it
I like the 18east coats
I lucked out on a 1950s balmacaan(sp?) on ebay
must've just sat in somebody's closet since then
I had a killer eastlogue fishtail wool coat that i regret selling
Eastlogue very cool
This is also my problem with long coats. They’re so fun to wear but biking is more or less my only means of transportation so just not really practical.
Wrong brand thread but that’s something I love about the Kapital ring coat. It’s long, but cut longer on the sides and shorter in the center of the back, so it’s easy to ride a bike with but still has the long coat vibes. I think I read somewhere that bicycle riding was specifically the consideration that led to that design choice but who knows.
thats what you get for living in a forward thinking city
I would die so incredibly fast if I attempted to bike in my city
haha i also regret not buying this from you 😂
haha yea i pretty much bike or walk everywhere, we drive once a month at most for a grocery stock up
I thrifted on old Hugo Boss wool coat that I love and picked up a J. Crew patchwork one on deep discount a couple years ago. It’s been unseasonably warm here in the SF Bay so no chance to wear yet 😭
Btw this season’s field pants rock, super heavy duty. Might be the heaviest I own, more so than the heavy twill fatigues even. SISU in socal is doing 30% off fall stuff so they came out to around $250 shipped
I like it but I think I'm going down to a medium lol
And I own a lot of EG so I get it
But I just zipped myself and my wife up in this at the same time
Cold air is just gonna inflate me willy Wonka style
is that black?
its Navy lmao
It's black
damn those photos look like navy
It looks more solid black in person
White balance strikes again
hell yeah, i'm wearing my olive one like a snuggie while working from home today so i don't have to turn on the furnace
That's a tactic
damn jacket so big you cant even see her in these pics
she's incredibly tiny
huh, I feel the other way, I'm a 32 but would like thei 32 fatigues to be a bit longer (I do have freakishly long legs mind.)
If you've worn EG for long enough you remember the years where they were really undersized. The newer stuff is oversized but the earlier seasons I'd have to buy XL for everything.
I’ve noticed that in proxying earlier seasons. An S 19th century shirt the last few years is 56cm p2p but the same size further back is <50cm
I got burned on a couple of shirts.
was normal sized for 08->12, 13 was slim, 14->18 were nutso skinny, big in 19, feel like it's been fairly 'normal' since
some cuts have changed dramatically -- they've lengthened shirts and added a button for example to everything in 2020
That’s a v useful breakdown.
this guy has receipts
Yeah you’re right about the length. It works for me with relatively normal to short legs. It’s the waist I meant.
@jplicks do your fatigues have the waist tabs?
unsolicited rules of thumb for some seasonal ids:
7 buttons on a shirt = post 2020.
6 buttons = , look at the tag.
Tags: black with white text = post 2014, white 'new' tag = post 2013, old tag with black threading = SS06-fw2012. Red thread 'old tag' = pre ss06.
Workshirts had a contrast button on the last button until 2012
Workday is indecipherable (intentionally, it's supposed to be 'seasonless'. Cuts and all that still have changed dramatically, though never been as slim as mainline)
mention all this in conjunction with the seasonal pattern post a few messages ago to help someone estimate how something is going to fit
don’t do it!
dude its gonna inflate and I'm gonna be freezing and fly away
Good luck in space, balloon boy
They do, tabs with two snaps on them. I believe they’re ground pants. They’re still a little loose even snapped on the second button! I just wear a belt or let ‘em ride down a bit.
Damn this is great, gonna save it for reference ty
have you considered.... donuts
like a lot of them
Hahaha
That’s why I haven’t resold these pants, I figure my waistband will mostly expand over time rather than the other way around so eventually they’ll fit perfectly 😆
i think 18 was the beginning of the embiggening, but sizing didn't change until 19. my fw18 flannel work shirt in medium, fits almost the same as my fw19 one in small
also, within the skinny as hell years, 2016 takes the cake. i got a few things from 14-17 and the 2016 stuff i can't fit in at all anymore
i think you're right! I had forgotten about those seasons (fw18 being the woolrich black/red fabrics season)
yep. i think even ss18 had some interestingly wide stuff going, like pants and whatnot started getting wider fits then. the over pant is from that season i think
sunset short too
and speaking of the woolrich stuff, i just left this in consigment. really loved it but the sleeves were crazy long for me
18 was my intro to EG
I still have my red work shirt
Can confirm it fits big
how do the fatigues fit? i've read some descriptions that they're kinda tapered but it's kinda hard to tell from shop photos. Some have the fit model with a bunch of stacking while others look solid from the front/back but no side angles
Varies season to season
current model is pretty much straight fit, not too slim/loose
a little longer than recent seasons
ah oke. i'm thinking between the heavyweight riptop vs these ones on ssense but.. the fit looks so.. wild
that’s just ssense styling, it’s infamous lol. recommending looking other sites to see how the fit looks
SSENSE wtf
Question- looking at a Bedford rip stop and wondering if I should go TTS
Yeah probably
Their tops are usually pretty oversized EXCEPT for their “suiting” options. At least in my case I went a size up from my usual EG shirt/jacket size (which is a size down from normal lol)
Yeah that’s what I’ve seen recommended but the sizing chart is throwing me off
And a more targeted question but if anyone has opinions on the ripstop fabric (likes or dislikes) I would be interested to hear
EG currently fits somewhat big but the cut is very intentional. If you want the EG look go TTS. Sizing up/down risks a few oddities in things like sleeve/jacket length etc
On ripstop, it's not my fav fabric for jackets. I'd probably look for a Bedford in twill/double cloth/moleskin over ripstop myself. But it's a matter of taste.
these are EG?!
The moleskin is lovely but it drapes like concrete, takes some beating to soften it up.
can attest to the double cloth and moleskin being really really nice
Agreed about the ripstop, not a fan for tops. I have a CPO in it that I wish was anything else.
Yeah that was my concern as well, it looking better for bottoms than tops. Appreciate the insights!
I had a nyco Bedford which is kinda similar and I found it kinda hard to wear. It wasn’t heavy enough for colder months but not light enough for when it was warm, it was also too slim for my liking which made it even harder for me to make use of
The NB jacket (New Bedford) is way better imo, little bit roomier for layering, I have mine in dark brown corduroy and find it much more versatile, I was wearing it in the last fit pic I posted to WAYWT. I usually size up to an XL because I’m kinda inbetween sizes but I wear an L in any modern EG
What's nyco?
Nylon cotton blend
It was a very crunchy fabric lol ever so slightly heavier than ripstop
I have a tropical wool Bedford that's perfect for summer (it's very light)
Sounds like twill or double cloth would make sense if I find another one
loiter in uniform wool
i loved my navy nyco ripstop bedford but it’s wayyyyy too slim for me now haha
I have an NB in uniform wool and I love it.
older size L and it’s like 21ish p2p
Lol
it’s nuts
hedi slimane and his influence on fashion was a disaster for a minute there
at least for me, a person with near 0 drop
and i didn’t even think of eg as slim at the time lol
Anyone know what season these are from? Don’t think I’ve seen EG hakama pants before https://grailed.app.link/UBTHNnbXNEb

What's going on on the front, looks almost like a cummerbund? Super sick
Looks the waist folds over itself, then is tied and folded over the tie
rej is spot on. conventional thai fisherman pants are very very very loose at the waist with a bit of a paperbag style waist. intention for closure is for them to be tied and the waist folded down to cover the tie. wide, cropped leg conventionally
did you get to try these from ss22? i didn't see any in person but would love to know how they compare to these ss15 ones (which I do own and love)
neg, nobody around me stocked it
Black or brown ?
I'm partial to brown but I'd say it depends more on your wardrobe and personal taste than anything else
Thank you, my concern with the brown is the versatility
Right that's what I mean. Both colours can be versatile but versatility depends on what the rest of your wardrobe looks like
I ask in General chat and it was unanimous, so brown it is ! Thank you very much
I picked up an older Bedford (pre 2013) and I'm trying to figure out the material. It's 100% cotton, a greenish color (greener than khaki but not olive), midweight with twill like outer and the inner side feels softer/brushed. Any ideas?
Do you have any pictures?
brown 😎
i think i’m gonna grab the same one
Next to khaki pants
Think I remember seeing this on Grailed
I had that thing I think. Fw12 khaki (reads closer to olive) whipcord
Yeah I think that's it. Thanks
What is the quality on EG like? Is it worth the price tag or am I just paying for Brand name? I'm going to Japan for vacation and have $1000 budget on clothes. Wondering if I should buy Kapital, EG, Jackman, or Needles
EG isn't cheaper in Japan, because it's made in the US. So if you're looking for better deals on Japan made stuff stuck to Kapital etc.
EG quality is pretty solid, but idk if that's really its selling point. A lot of it is improvements on simple items with fun details. Construction is an added benefit
Yeah the eg price tag is to have a goofy little pocket somewhere that you think is cute, not because it’s like 10x more sturdily constructed than j crew or whatever
grabbed that long qlo eg parka
oversized fit is not a problem for me but i do wonder how comical i look being 5'6" in a medium
u might wanna change it for an s im 5 6 and sometimes i feel like the S is a biiiit too oversized
i exclusively dress oversized i am unbothered
how long is it tho lol
I tried on all the qlo EG stuff yesterday and thought it was all pretty cool
Better in person imo
looks neat but i am not moving my ass to toronto just to try it all on
vibes-based sizing in effect
Might try to grab the parka on sale, it was massive in my usual XL
massive in a good way or nah
It’s oversized as is so it would’ve been completely wearable. I’m usually in between a L & XL and almost always size up. But I would take a large in this case
wearable is good
my only concern is the sleeves being too long
size S the bottom hits like 2-3" or 6.5 ish cm below my knee from the front
oh man
yeah my size S the sleeves go like an inch from the wrist so medium might be a bit longer. pretty sure theres a size chart on the website
ok i gotta think then, haven't ordered yet cuz im picking a color
this image is pretty ideal for how i want it to fit
What’s your typical Uniqlo size?
I’d just get that
My gf tried it and thought it was sick, she usually gets a woman’s M and the XS was perfect for her
Never really bought outerwear from em, shirts are generally an L cuz i got some heft these days
holy shit lol double size down
oh woman's sizing
tru
You’ll probably be good in a medium
yeah im just gonna get M
yeah i think a size down wouldve worked to get that type of fit on me but im still fine with rocking an s
The bomber is also pretty sweet, probably the most unique piece of the bunch. It was pretty hefty and had a very round silhouette, cool button and pocket deets
me visualizing fits to see if green or black is more suitable for the drobe
oh nice, bomber looks neat too
The pics on the site don’t show it well but you could wear it unzipped and there’s a big fabric tab on the inside that snaps onto the 3 buttons at the top. Looked way cooler open with just the top buttons done
I got this one - it’s heavy enough it might be good enough for all winter which I didn’t expect
bit of a long shot, but does anyone know if sizing on the loiter jackets have changed? im looking at a used one and the measurements on an S from aw19 provided by the seller is significantly smaller than this season's XS, so not sure if the seller messed up or if the sizing's changed that much
fw22 to 23 are nearly identical, it was smaller when it first came out
What happened to eg workaday?
Is the line still around?
the nepenthes site had a few coats still for sale late time i checked
Thanks
yup!
It’s still around. A few stores stock it, but not as many as mainline
Thanks. I was checking my favorite stockists and see less of them so that where the question from
totem is the one i can think of off the top of my head stateside
they also seem to run production after finishing the rest of nepenthes house brands, so you end up getting restocks of things like fatigues/chore coats/oxfords just before the following season

new workaday stuff is up on the NNY site
smh the cross crewneck tees are $1 more than they used to be!!
not-shitposting though the new MC shacket silhouette looks real nice
Who's making the sweats these days?
Camber?
detailing makes me think camber, they switched from the throatlatch to the button neck at the same time camber did
Yeah I know Camber was making them in the past. So the switch lining up makes sense.
I’m also digging the MC shirt jacket
Roopa were doing them at one point right? I have some MiC sweats from EG/Workaday somewhere I'm sure.
i’m not sure, the only one i’ve owned was made in the US
it fit crazy small tho so i had to sell it
Months ago, I remember finding a post somewhere (probably StyleForum?) where somebody found the supplier of some of EG's fabrics and linked to their website. I remember in particular seeing the fabric used in this bird embroidery shirt there: https://www.garmentory.com/sale/engineered-garments/mens-button-ups/1935344-engineered-garments-bird-embroidery-shirt I unfortunately failed to bookmark it and can't find the site anymore. Long shot, but does anyone know what I'm talking about or have the link?
Garmentory
Engineered Garments BIRD EMBROIDERY SHIRT - BLUE on Garmentory
COLLETTO BUTTON-DOWN CHIU Gender: Men Material: 100% COTTON Color: BLUE Made in: US
might not necessarily be the supplier. Not sure if it's directly from EG or the mills but someone sells the leftover fabric to textile shops and stuff. I used to have some bookmarked but can't find them, will update if I do.
I saved this image a few years ago from a fit-battle of someone who found some EG fabric and made their own suit out of it. He was also the one that posted links to some of the shops, but seems like he has deleted his account
_donnyq on insta, might worth reaching out if you were interested!
He actually has this fit on his grid and mentions where he bought the fabric as well.
@jplicks you might wanna check metro textiles.
oh sweet! thats convenient
Thank you! I actually follow that guy haha he has some great fits.
aw mr. rektunicorn, wish he was on the cord

Vault by Vans X Engineered Garments Era Gore LX Shoe
With the vans vault being axed, they’re doing an archive sale with a few sizes of the 2022 EG collab in brown. I think the other colors sold out sadly
damn, I'm gonna have to baby my black pair
theyre rebranding to vans OTW so they probably will have more EG collabs I imagine
this is just a good chance to get comfier, better built* vans for like $40
in my experience I’ve found my LX authentics to hold up less than my regular ones but I digress as this isn’t a vans thread
i grabbed the tan ones, thanks for the heads up!
my white slip on pair from like 2017 are still going strong!
^ I find vans canvas material really easy to clean and the nature of how they’re constructed makes them easy to glue back together if needed
I have some slip ons I said I’d throw out when they start falling apart and it’s been like 4 years now
Actually I forgot college happened so it’s probably been more like 6. They’re old enough that I wear 10.5 (back when you sized up vans)
my white pair are the leather/suede eg collab, my canvas pairs typically last about a year of hard wear
thats good to know
even if this wasnt EG, I really like the laceless slip on look (comparabled to slip on mexico 66s) and being able to do that with eras/authentics is right up my alley
I miss my pair so much. I wore them when I’m as walking 10 miles a day and just wore right through the soles 😭

Love this one
Yeah I’ve been keeping an eye on that one too. If I had any gas left in the tank I’d grab it at that price.
Picked up the chambray work shirt, great price!
Think my dogs might need an EG bandana
Does anybody know what Bedford I actually own? Can't seem to find any info online about a Bedford w/ throat latch in this brown donegal
I love mine!
i’m guessing it’s a pretty old model, there’s a similar one in the FW06 lookbook
yeah i was thinking 05-06, definitely early. i think he was still tweaking some of the design elements
you might not be seeing the throat latch in pics because it could be buttoned back
yea here’s the lookbook shot with it
nice sleuthing!
Ive been looking on and off for a second hand bedford but its been hard finding one in my size and i understand the fit is different sometimes. Does the sizing vary depending on like where you buy it?
Neat thanks!
what do you mean by where you buy it?
sizing shifts a little each season, so buying second hand can be a little tough
Sometimes when im looking on ebay it’ll specify “from japan” so i dont know if they size different for a different market
They don't, but if you're looking for larger sizing post 2019ish seasons are a good bet.
what cdfchopper said, all markets get the same sizing
Thank you! Yah some XL’s ive seen are like a 22-23in ptp which is a bit small typically for an xl so i’ll keep an eye out for newer versions
they really widened up the fit when they moved away from slim fit haha
with sales hitting now you might be able to find a good deal on a new one (and possibly matching fatigue pants)
You have a preferred stockist you use doing sales?
Nepenthes NY likely to have best choice to some degree. If they don't charge you VAT then Nepenthes London, the Bureau Belfast and Kafka Mercantile generally have a good stock list and have sales ATM - without VAT likely to be very good savings.
Yea I love shopping at Kafka for the VAT discount plus patron account deals. TBB usually has big buys as well. Otherwise I usually buy EG from Black Blue (my local shop) or Canoe Club
Totem in Philly is another store with great buys
I think Independence Chicago had some on sale, too
Independence
Engineered Garments Bedford Jacket Olive Cotton Moleskin
EG's iconic casual blazer. 100% heavyweight cotton moleskin with two chest pockets, two waist pockets, two interior pockets, and removable buttons.Slightly oversized fit. For a more tailored fit, consider sizing down. See measurements.
Wild how much bigger the new stuff is compared to older EG
XS now has a p2p of 21", older seasons that would have been a M/L
Reminds me of Levi's 501s, which have changed so much that repro brands have to list the year their model is based on rather than the model number, itself
Not to complicate things more, but loiter jackets fit roomier than bedfords
bit of a different vibe but it might be worth considering
Also theres the NB
Which is slightly in the other direction, a little more fitted but not by a ton. I like the silhouette.
I was checking those out but i like the details on the bedford better i think
501 is wild how varied it is. I have two pairs one from the 90’s and one from the 70’s and the fit is entirely different
Yep I can defintely see the bedford being a better fit for your closet
loiters having what I consider to be the best silhouette
yeah i prefer the loiter's slouchy, untailored fit, but the bedford is nicely refined and more traditional, and there's an appeal to that
Has anyone tried the db jacket?
How does the Andover compare to the Bedford and loiter out of curiosity?
Closer to a "normal" (but unstructured) sport coat.
Has a vent, can be worn three button or three roll two. Has working cuffs.
Tends to come in fabrics closer to suiting or sport coat too.
ayy tropical wool for ss24 is back to being actual wool https://nepenthesny.com/collections/new-arrivals/products/andover-pant-dk-navy-tropical-wool-1
Anyone brought uniform Serge from different seasons before? I have NB and Carlyle pants from one season a couple years back, and kinda wanna get the DB from this season in the sale but not sure if they're gonna be a close enough match to suit?
Love my tropical wool Bedford, wearing it rn
Thank you! Makes me feel like it's more superfluous (the fw ones I've seen) for my wardrobe cause I have a Donegal tweed sport jacket on the way and already have a tweed chore coat
Tho the boucle fabric looks cool
Idk anything about suiting terms but my Andover feels more formal than my Bedford. Like if you were to make a scale from casual to formal it would go loiter, Bedford, Andover
Thank you! Anyone have the shawl collar cardigan jackets? Some of those interest me the most for fw EG.
@cdfchopper how's the wool melange fabric of your interliner?
Like a really thicc Donegal, quite fluffy and soft. I like it but suspect longevity might not be great. Luckily an interliner won't need much/any washing.
Thanks. I love how it looks and have almost bought something or other in it
I'm thinking of copying you with the interliner, but I also like the mock neck vest
For me the colour is great as a midlayer. Goes real well with my olive / navy pants/jackets.
I love a warm neck
Interliner it!
Yeah, it's interesting without being flashy
I have two now and I love them.
Andover flap pockets do be sick
I think I've seen Margaret Howell jackets with a similar pocket design also
It's a very traditional English country jacket pocket layout.
V helpful, tyy
My tropical wool Bedford is v light. Wouldn't it not drape well for pants?
Could be nice as a slouchy look tho
andover suit is definitely the most formal of the eg suits i’d say
i used to have one and it would get worn to every summer wedding
I was eyeing an andover suit on grailed for a while but the last thing i need is a 4th navy suit
Damn this reminded me I need to get the matching pants for mine
you should
Andover is a weird jacket. Definitely the most Tailored of the eg jackets.
Would be hard pressed to recommend ANY old ones though, they were all like drop 8 and cut overall strangely. Talking here pre 2013 (old tags). After 2013 is a whole different league of the same strangeness
i like them but would really only wear it for formal stuff
better off with a bedford for most uses
I need to get a suit for my wedding this october
Im thinking about a bedford / carlyle combo but i could also see myself going for the andover setip
New Bedford is too good for a wedding. Nice shape, way more ease than the andover. a "tailored bedford" through and through
No idea if they are running it this season tho
My boss is going to see fw24 next week so ill report back
hoping for another g8 jacket because I totally missed out on getting one in my size this szn
The good news is theyll release the fw24 lookbook around market week so we’ll see
hyped, for some reason it's been impossible to get a g8 jacket in the UK from anywhere other than ssense
Damn nepenthes already has some ss24 stuff up

yuuup!
Thanks. I was looking at jackets there, not sure how I missed the pants
I have a sudden desire to become an EG person
Feel free to dip your toes in
The waters fine
Eg makes a lot of wearable stuff for newbs (to the brand) like me
bedfords and andovers and carlyles
This fit caught my eye and now I want everything
What's the sizing like on the trail shirt? I usually buy L nowadays for a relaxed fit in the shoulders.
But for oversized/relaxed fitting brands I buy M
Current EG runs huge I think
if you want it to fit like this go tts
Idk what my true size is anymore. It's confusing
Best to compare measurements then. Of the EG pieces I have, I went with my usual size of M for tops which fits relaxed but I have to get XS for pants to have them fit my waist well. But in the end it’s personal for how you want it to fit
True size doesn't exist
I would like 19.5" across shoulder, different sites say size M is anywhere between 18.7-20"
There's just going to be some minor variance in measurments. Could be the individual measuring, the garment itself, different materials
I'm not sure if you're looking at something different, but the shirt in the pic is a classic shirt https://independence-chicago.com/eg-classic-shirt-olive-cotton-heavy-twill-plaid/

Yeah I'm looking at the blackwatch trail shirt
I’d say large then
Thanks homies, someone else also recommended L, so I'll go with that!
Excited for first EG
Well I have workaday fatigues but that doesn't count 😋
of course it counts
Does anybody know what the number on the inside of EG items means? e.g. NY 10018 in this pic
or 11101 in this pic
is that just a US zipcode lol?
It's a New York zip code.
Yeah the first is in Manhattan and the second is in Long Island city after they moved there
noice, was curious but now I feel a bit dumb LOL

This is fun
Is that homespun under there?
Hope so, apparently proper wool is coming back?
wouldn't hold your breath on these being heavy heavy wool comps. Looks closer to the tri-blend (which is still good!). Heres higher res ripped from IG. Really love most of this 1920s french biker villain stuff. Shirting fabrics look exceptional
That blue band collar looks interesting.
Can't wait to buy the plainest thing from this collection in a year or two and dress it down to business casual
Unironically 👆
If they bring back all natural fibres I’ll never financially recover.
ooo is this news or wishful thinking?
Very intrigued by this jacket

Avant '80s Fashion in Engineered Garments FW24 (EXCLUSIVE)
Engineered Garments' Fall/Winter 2024 lookbook reveals an
80s-inspired FW24 collection inspired by both Armani & Yohji Yamamoto.
It could be a new iteration of the Chelsea jacket
i'm loving the whole noir feel of this photoshoot
but i'm finding i'm happier if i view it like i view an ALD lookbook,
scrolling way up so that i can't see the hats
Worth noting that HS article does confirm the return of the homespun wool!!
Yeah I think you’re right. I missed the flap on the other side and wasn’t sure if the buttons went all the way down but looks like they do
Picked this up on Grailed in good shape for pennies on the dollar. By far the heaviest EG work shirt I’ve handled
i’ve got this same one, it’s super heavy haha
It was described as heavyweight and I was still taken aback by the weight when I got it lol
for sure lmao, i’ve got a ton of eg flannels and none of them are even close to as thick as that one
really wanted that shirt but waited too long in the sales
I desperately need each of these pants.
Engineered garments owners i am joining you
All in on the good shit.
I think about coping those every time they show up on a secondhand site. I feel like they’ll really work with your style!
I hope so!
Have the shorts of this, bidding on this cardigan for a summer suit.
Shorts got me a free joint off a rasta in Brixton a couple years ago.
do you know what year that heavyweight flannel is from? Just curious because I wear a small in the recent workshirts/classic shirts
it’s from last year, FW22
sweet - I really loved the feel of this year's heavy twill flannels but the colors weren't really my thing
agreed, one of the first years i didn’t grab a flannel
according to canoe club there are "various" flannels coming this yr
tangentially - tried some ss24 shirting today. really great. snagged the ivy popover in the iridescent blue. fit is consistent with the flannels and 19th ct i've gotten the last few seasons. fabric is far better than i expected
I don't really know if theres a heavyweight color from them I've loved so far. this looks ok tho
i really like the iridescent stuff
niiiiiice, i think i’m gonna grab that too
has EG made their shirts any shorter in recent seasons
for a while there they were all like nightshirts, i don't wear mine as much as other shirts cuz the proportions are odd
especially the 19th c with the huge curved hems
theyre still pretty long
still long but i don’t think they’re as long as other recent seasons
I bought a chambray work shirt from the recent Homme Essentials sale, still long
I have the bag they made with this fabric, one of my favorite fabrics they’ve done
good prices at bodega, went down to 70% off for a lot of pieces
Some good prices at Kith as well

Holy shot these are beautiful
came here to post my L that the one night i'm not checking my usual spots for my grail parka some mfer buys it for dirt cheap and sells it the same night for a ridiculous profit
the saga continues...now i see a NWT jacket in my size listed on ebay. starting bid is $600. i'm considering asking the seller if they can change it to buy it now at $500. does that seem unreasonable from the seller's POV?
Worth a shot, when I list items I tend to list them over what I will actually take. I just assume people will negotiate down
Since we’re back in a baggy phase, are you guys sizing up 1 on EG pants?
I kinda feel like they’re pre-sized up one, no?
They already are roomy so no, if you wanted to get real baggy with it you could get some Over Pants lol
So you’re going with exact fit in the waist? I’m a 30 waist and the XS fits perfectly but since there’s a drawstring I was thinking about going up 1 size to small which I think is a 32 for more relaxed fit.
Have you bought EG before and which year?
Only this year and last year.
in my experience an EG L is 36" which is closer to most brands' XL
Ditto on that
depends on the season
i size up on like 17-19
I wouldnt
Because not just the waist is a size too big
The rise might be too long for what you want, at least thats my problem when i try to size up
Ok thanks. I washed a pair of fatigues last night and they didn’t shrink at all so I’ll just stick with the XS for now.
Does anybody know what model this is and what year? It looks like the current LL jacket but with some slight differences?

but yeah worried it was going to be slimmer than id like
Yeah I went off the measurements from that listing because it’s the same size as the one i was looking at on Vinted. Seems like it should fit so I YOLO ordered it since the deal was good lol
How have EG’s fatigue and over pant sizing changed over the years? I know the shirts have gotten longer/roomier; wondering if there’s similar changes with the pants
pants have gotten bigger all around (waist/thigh/hem). inseams have all been fairly consistent between like 29" and 31" ime.
picked up an andover suit awhile back to wear casually, and i'm debating what to do about the jacket sleeves
they're certainly "menswear" long, but should i care?
one issue is this stitching and how odd it might look if i shorten them from the end, probably 1/4" from the stitching
still not sure if i should care
length looks good to me!
especially if you’re planning to wear it more casually
anyone spot fits with the new wp pant? can't quite get a good feeling of the shape from nepenthes
I was kinda wondering the same thing. They look cropped to me.
Do all of their nicer jackets (Bedford, etc.) have polyester in them?
no
nah they look fine

Rly want these
plz do
Ugh it looks like its being delivered probably tomorrow 😔
sad!
do you know what all you guys ordered?
Haha never
Ill ask the buyer and hes usually like idk man i ordered that 8 months ago
But uhh i know for a fact that we’re stocking the natural twill bedford jacket
sick
i have the fatigues from last year
i could get some colonel sanders type swag
Hey @TheComebackKid I was wondering how warm the g8 jacket is? Thanks!
It does have a quilted lining but its not like crazy warm
Thank you!
Np!
Ok so EG is in
Not a huge delivery but theres a few things to bite into
Are the ivy shirts as good as they look?
Didnt get the ivy shirts 😔
Got a camp shirt and combo short collar in their handkerchief fabric
What's the sizing like for the ivy shirts?
That combo shirt is good.
Massive.
Oh rip, my neck size is under 14.5
I mean it's possible I could wear one totally casually but idk.
Some of the patterns for the ivy shirts are really cool
You'd be buying an EG sport shirt for anything other than casually?
Maybe wearing under a sport jacket semi casually?
running for president in my andover suit
So casually.
But would it work if it's comically large on me tho?
I mean, EGs current thing is being pretty oversized. It's a vibe. They do go down to XXS from what I know, but not sure of availability of those sizes outside of Nepenthes stores in Japan and maybe the NY one.
Silhouette is a thing though, and if you don't want to buy into the EG silhouette there's other places to get stuff similar to the ivy shirt.
Benji I haven't seen an inspo album from you but from what you describe as your inspo I'd question if EG actually fits into your wardrobe
outside of like, a bedford/andover
like these are just collared shirts right? Why do you need them to be EG?
Thank you! Oh wait I think I mixed up the shirt you're talking about with the 19th century shirts
yea the ivy shirt is just an ocbd with a lil pocket flap
Sorry I mixed things up!
Actually this was the shirt that I really like the pattern
And it's casual nvm lol
They have XXS too 👀
19th century BDs are just a particular take on an OCBD pattern really. They fit really long and very A-line.
What's A-line?
Much wider at the waist than the shoulders. Like an A.
Not all of EG does but I've had EG inspo pieces for awhile in my mind. I really love some of their wool shawl cardigan jackets I've seen on eBay for example
Not saying I'm buying anything rn lol tho
I think theres overlap with your style and EG, but especially these type of shirts are not that distinct from other brands, and are specifically aimed for the EG silhouette
Long lazy wide fits, EG doesn't do traditionally ivy intentionally, this is the lookbook for this season and I think you should look at how different things are styled and think about if they truly fit your goals:

wearing an ivy shirt rn. gonna try to get outside and take a fitpic. they live up to the hype!!
hell yea
i’m keen to grab a few, which one did you get?
blue iridescent. the iridescent is really really subtle. it's good as hell. only thing i'd say is the sleeves fit my short arms perfectly in a small. would be curious if other people find them a little short?
niiiiice that’s the one i really want
O, I'm normally a small but v tall, would be interested in an IRL sleeve measurement if you have time at some point.

city boys up
gave ya the (measurements of the) shirt off my back above
lookin swaggy al, i think i want one of these now…
Thanking you!
25 p2p on a small is crazy haha
i see it more as them really rebuilding how they pattern. Really pushes so you just size by length/sleeve length than you do by length + width

rumor i heard is fw24 daiki and crew said "fuck it, add another 2" of width" to shirting and jackets
Picked up the heavyweight ripstop fatigues on deep discount. S/o to Halo Shoes in Portland
woah they've got some nice prices
Couldn’t pass them up
they've got some other EG and Eastlogue stuff there at like 75% off
They got some crazy prices jeez
I was skeptical but they’re a brick and mortar in Portland apparently. I didn’t see them on the EG website’s stockist list
Did you go in person?
Nope online
How does the heavyweight cotton ripstop on last seasons fatigues compare with the spring summer ripstop and/or orslow fatigues? I assume it’s warmer and obviously heavier, but does it fit significantly differently due to the weight? Been trying to move away from denim because the heavier fabric can make getting the perfect fit a hassle so I’m trying other fabrics. Sorry if this is more appropriate for #questions-and-advice
The fit is about the same in my experience it’s just a little more rigid due to it being a lot thicker and heavier
Haven’t tried Orslow
So just slightly more rigid?
I mean they’re rigid but they’re not as rigid as the duck canvas ones I have and they’re not as soft as the heavy twill. But they’ll break in over time
are you still looking? I see some available online right now, size m
Thank you but i think ill need a large
How are EG backpacks?
i do not like them personally. The totes I dig. The straps have felt weird in use on the backpacks I've tried
Thank you! Was considering one as I sortve need a backpack
A nice Patagonia one will cost you half as much and be just as cool and almost certainly better designed.
I love topo designs personally
I grabbed an Osprey commuter backpack for ~$35 from Backcountry and it’s been great
yeah I've an Osprey as well, love it
A Patagonia backpack is less than $100?
Tbh I was planning on spending like $60 but the EG one looked cool and was on sale for $102 on ssense
Oh I see patagonia is less than $100.
Yeah if youre looking for a daily driver bag i wouldnt go for the eg ones
Theyre just fine but you can get so much better
Will have to measure to confirm but i think the bedfords are bigger this season
This medium roughly fits like the large I bought last year
Wonder if they adopted the NB fit as the regular Bedford fit instead of having 2 versions of the same jacket
Looks just like how my NB fits me which is a big improvement imo! White jacket with the double knees is lookin good!
can anyone tell me which season this material is from?

FW19 — Engineered Garments
are these tags that say fwk only used in older collections?
FWK is the womens line?
Did they stop differntiating on newer collections, or do they not do them anymore?
ah okay i didn't know that
I was able to date the piece this is from, fw15
that whole lookbook is shot in black and white for some reason
they still use numbers for some items. in womens, 0 is xs, 1 is s, 2 is m and 3 is l.
ty that's super helpful to know
last FWK collection I can find reference to is FW18, looks like it was quietly retired
what piece are you looking for?

it's just listed as size 1 with no measurements
that's going to be tiny
but i'll take more stuff in this pattern it's awesome
ya that's what i'm worried abt
oh that fabric is so gorgeous
Back off 😖
Everybody be cool nobody get any big ideas
fw15 and fw17 had some absolutely insane fabrics
in my experience size 3 fits more or less like a mens small, woith some differences like shorter body length and sleeves

that is going to be absolutely tiny and extremely cropped. even the mens version was tiny. Also stiff, as that's the "double cloth" which is both cool and stiff as a board. I had fatigues in that fabric that I wore daily and couldn't really break in
(it's also FW15)
Omg tysm!! The measurements here are so helpful if also tragic
I genuinely enjoy hunting stuff down like that

I got the engineered garments fatigues and i love them but i feel so weird unzipping the hidden pocket since it’s so close to the fly
I keep my ID and debit card in there when I run errands and I’ve had many a cashier get uncomfortable when I started unzipping that pocket
Seriously, I don't put stuff in there for this reason
If your card has contactless payment you should just grab the terminal and wave it around your pocket instead.

seems so busy but def catches my eye
i have to think abt this now
Love floral
It busy but the print really high quality
each strip could had been its own pattern 😭
this section looks amazing
another 1
Camp collar looks nice
😮
that 1 is def too busy for me but i see snippets i rly like
Sold out in M thank god
i think ima size up :xd:
I fuck with those but to quote someone a while back about a shirt I liked, I wonder if you wouldn't just look a bit like a comedian on a panel show.
Worst case scenario it reminds me of the full graphic hoodies I see on IG

ahegao hoodie
Tbh I don't really like this pattern
I've tried on size S EG camp shirts at alumni and they were quite long btw (needed an XS it looked like)
I would love to hang this design on a wall somewhere in my apartment
Suddenly I'm losing conviction
I suspect that was me. Sorry.
Same, I went down a size on mine.
twas funny tho
The fabric on its own is gorgeous but it does kinda remind me of /r/streetwear circa 2017 type stuff
Is there a good resource for the differences between all the blazers?
I know canoe club has one but it’s a bit older and the photos are inconsistent
i think the canoe club stuff still holds up. fits are just bigger in recent seasons, but the ideas remain the same

I kinda love em
@algoresky question inspired by your waywt post yesterday: how would you describe the fit of the NB compared to the bedford? I have a bedford that I sadly never really wear because I find it fits me weirldy (a bit short and boxy), and I've sometimes wondered if the NB might work better for me. It looks great on you so I figured I'd ask!
That's a good question. I haven't owned any newer (post 2019) "old" bedfords, only tried on. From my memory it was about an inch shorter in body and sleeves than the OB I tried that season, the old bedford fit a bit boxier.
Comparing it to older bedfords I have owned -- it fits similarly. A bit longer than the older ones. It's got details like a surgeon sleeve (though still the shirt sleeve style construction as the bedford).
Tldr: Fits closer to tailoring where the "old bedford" definitely ends up wearing more like a chore coat
Thank you! When you say "it was about an inch shorter in body..." the "it" is your NB? So it's a bit longer than the pre-2019 OBs, but shorter than the more modern OBs?
I'd say so, but truthfully you see variance heavily by season
yeah im sure
Tough cause I don't actually know exactly when my bedford is from since I got it secondhand 😅
especially since they haven't run the NB every season -- or even most seasons
yeah probably best to just compare measurements as always. I def want something a little longer and trimmer than the one ive got
for sure. Happy to measure mine in small if it brings ya any help
hmm id probably be looking for a medium ty though!
Remind me tomorrow. I have a NB and a Bedford from the same season.
Damn
I found an EG wool shacket at the buffalo exchange!
an engineer would have made buttons that were secured to the garment better
Real
Lasted about one day before that happened lmao
oof
They swapped it out and said they’d fix the buttons in store if it happened again
Which is good to hear bc I haven’t found a better hoodie
fuck yeah. what shop? worth callin out the places that treat ya right
BlackBlue in Saint Paul
Btw they have a damn good sale rn
Like the only place with decent raw denim in Minnesota. I mostly go for other stuff like EG but they specialize/started out with jeans
Menswear selection here just sucks and they’re basically the only place besides this place called Together (which is also great - only place in the state with Paraboot to my knowledge, and the only place that puts Paraboot on sale), but that’s more GORP-y
Anyone tried the Ivy shirt? Is it as massive as size charts suggest?
@algoresky would probably know
this loiter jacket is kinda speaking to me
Is that the wool/poly?
yea
I almost got the gray one. It’s really nice in person especially
That being said it’s really warm
yea it looks a bit thick, probably not a year round item
i've been ivy pilled by the mfa meta and have been casually scrolling thrift shops for blazers. i don't think i need it by any means
I want a blazer eventually but idk if it’s a high priority for me either
I might get the claighton jacket but it’s pricey. EG jackets are just out of my price range for clothes
It is that massive. It's a shirt to size for sleeve length rather than pit to pit. Truly the only big part of it is p2p. Here's the small on me https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1129407669665538078/1205621503652274196
lol the small is probably pretty close to fitting me
fwiw i'm 5'5" and the sleeves on small are borderline short (at least on the blue iridescent. didn't try others to know if they shrunk differently in production)
yea chest wise i meant
Might just order my usual small and hope for the best.
Oh actually I'm in London this week so can go to Nepenthes.
I size mostly off chest
Like small sometimes has slightly too long sleeves, but XS is too tight in the chest
Pretty much across the board whether it’s a shirt or a jacket
Not quite sure how I feel about these
IMO the kilts are a bit much but I thought those were removable
I really like removing the crepe and adding the hiking boot lace ups
finally the resurgence of a weird version of :cdb: is here!!!
The loiter is by far my fave EG “blazer” cut
i have a brown cord version and really like it
I have one in the black lightweight twill, v v nice
yea just thinking i probably dont need another heavy version of the same jacket but the price is pretty nice
have a wool homespun loiter on and keep a navy cord at work as the "in a pinch" jacket. just a perfect jacket imo
i've got my eye on a grey homespun on grailed but waiting for them to dock the price some
If you really want a homespun loiter and you find one, I’d jump on it
Took me a year to find one in my size then dhl lost it. Took me another year to find another
tragic
i regret passing on a sparkly herringbone jacket a few years back for like $100. would be fun to mix in
what size are ya rej
large
+/-
damn because here's a smedium https://www.therealreal.com/products/men/clothing/outerwear/engineered-garments-jacket-keeyr
the real tragedy is i've only worn in a few times because the fit is so much slimmer than recent ones
When is yours from @narwhal? Fwiw, mines from fw20ish and fits similar to my FW22 cord one
not sure but it fits similar to my older olive cord
which is roughly 2 sizes smaller than my '21 (maybe 22) herringbone
damn, good to know. didn't know they ran the homespun loiter in the skinny seasons
it's not skinny skinny, like the really early (14?) brown homespun bedfords
oh yeah, those were a different homespun too. they used a thinner yarn on the fabric, and I think it's 100% wool?
it's probably more "normal" sizing, compared to the new loiters, which are really oversized
i just measured my M homespun p2p: 22.5" / newer herringbone: 24.5"
yeah early ones were 100%
mine is 20% poly
65 wool/20poly/15 ny on the 20s one
so that seems to be a fairly easy way to date em at a glance
oh yeah that's what mine is too
any EG heads know when this one is from?
any idea on material? wool?
seller hasn't responded to my question to see the tags yet :hawyee:
It's a new bedford for sure (sleeve buttons + no butcher buttons)
Ooh good info, ta
Oh I saw a lot of those on yjp the last time I looked, it might be worth browsing jp sites to gather info
good call salo. It's chenille in poly/acrylic/wool from fw2020
material in copy was called 'Dark Grey Black Chenille'
Awesome, thank you both!!
EG detectives at work again
Folks I sniped this jungle fatigue jacket on Ebay last minute for $80 total, do you think it's a reasonable price for the condition? Looks like it mostly needs to be ironed
great price! if it fits ya, you'll love it
I hope it does! never owned an EG piece before so curious to see how the size down goes
Anyone own a raglan hoodie in small or medium they can measure? I got a replacement hoodie after the button on my small broke, and I swear this replacement is a whole size or two bigger. I thought I was crazy but my gf pointed out it looks way larger
p2p: 22.5
sleeve from pit seam: 23
back length: just under 26
size small
Thanks for taking the time to do that
My p2p is like 23.5
Sleeve from pit seam: 25 (explains a lot)
Back length: 26
This is from the most recent release
The sleeve length was the most stark difference
Might be more like 24” sleeve
glad to help! worth nothing i felt mine shrank a bit after the first wash
Cropped out the end a bit oops
It’s not necessarily a bad fit, but it’s definitely larger than whatever I had before. Maybe the one I had first was the weird one
XS definitely doesn’t fit me either, that had more of a bell shape than a box shape on me
It’s kind of my L to bear because I already have washed it
Last i heard eg uses camber to make their hoodies
Idk if they pre shrink them but if not then it will shrink in the wash
They still use camber afaik
Is there a difference in quality between reg EG and Workaday? Also, how's the sizing on the Engineer jacket? I'm betwixt a L and XL but I do wear a L in a Bedford
Had this saved coincidentally. From the EG thread on styleforum
Oops I missed the “quality” aspect. My bad
Quality is the same - for better or worse. It's how they fill capacity after they finish seasonal production
so made by the same folks and machines to the same standard. Fits are different. Fabrics are overruns (extra from seasonal), stuff they get from jobbers, stuff they run forever and have a billion yards of (olive sateen for instance), and they'll try new fabrics/mills that sometimes they bring into mainline (like the tri-blend-wool)
always wondered about all this. I wish they still used sateen for mainline.

I've made the mistake of expecting different seasons material with the same labels to match in the past. I have a khaki cord vest that is a much greener colour than the suit I bought it to pair with.

looked off with the khaki suit but looks great with an olive eg suit so eg giveth and eg taketh away

Too tall?
Yeah too tall / skinny. I'm 6'2 but can generally get away with xs eg pants cos I have a long torso. The overalls/combi suits just don't work unfortunately.
M is about long enough but wildly big elsewhere.
i've got the exact opposite problem with pre 2019 boiler/combi suits.

What's a "decent" price on a homespun jacket? One has now dropped near a range I'd consider paying
Does anyone have any tropical wool pieces from EG? How does it wear over time?
Brown or gray? Bedford or Loiter (or Baker)?
The short but annoying answer is "depends on how much you want it," but I'd say fair pricing is in the range of $250 for a Bedford, $250-300 for loiter
I think I payed $280 +proxy fees/shipping for the loiter that was lost and $250 +proxy/shipping for the one I have
Grey baker
And that's about what it's dropped to
Sorry I might have been editing my comment when you were posting, because I'm just not at all sure about Baker pricing
How does the loiter differ from the baker? Seems very similar, is the loiter just the updated version?
I think the baker was more a trad sport coat, closer to the NB or Andover/Lawrence. Loiter is more a hunting jacket/field coat/chore coat.
Aren’t baker jackets really slim-fitting?
i have no personal baker experience but I think chopper is right
traditional lapels, closer to a typical sport coat
Baker was more cropped. Double vented (vents were pleats). Definitely slimmer than the loiter or bedford. Looser and short than the Andover. Somewhere between the New Bedford and loiter in styling
Haven't run it in quite a while, so I'd expect this one to be slim. The really old tag ones fit similar to the current loiter
This almost seems newer, like they mistakenly labeled it a baker idk tho
Will see how the XL off TRR works out
yeah that's a baker
measurements look pretty slim to me
22" chest, 18" shoulder
for L
Yeah I do
Idk seems good so far, picked it up in the summer
It's a very lightweight tropical wool
22" chest on an L IS an L
sounds about right. the shoulders seem a little small tho
i was using modern eg language where that's a S
wrong!
eg L’s are like 24-25 now haha
y’all take the L for not getting the joke
i'll be happy to admit it went straight over my head until your callout lol
i only understand poopoo jokes
They ain’t my favourite type of joke, but they a solid # 2

Saw this pair of fatigues on depop, but not sure what season it's from or if it's legit. Did eg ever make stuff exclusively for Nepenthes, and use a numeric sizing scale instead of XS, S, etc ?
those are women's (FWK). Going to be a different fit all around. The fabric is a reverse sateen (as in the same weave as OG107s). Judging from the inner button and tags, SS11 or SS12
Ty!
size 2 is womens medium
y'all are eg encyclopedias damn
I typed up the same thing
I learned about FWK (I think from reading algoresky posts) recently because I’d love to get a two-tuck skirt
But sadly finding a size 3 seems to be not easy
they dropped the fwk thing in 2019. it's under the main eg label now
they still use the numbers for size though. but yeah, some of the things they make for the womens line i like more than the equivalent for mens, like the rounded collar shirt and the sailor pant
like this pretty thing
the embroidery fabrics this season are so pretty
Nepenthes New York
Rounded Collar Shirt - Blue / White CP Embroidery
This shirt features formal details such as a round collar and fly placket. Sewing is done with a single needle, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming, resulting in both beautiful seams and high durability. 75% Cotton25% PolyMade in USA
there's a 19th century version but this looks nicer
I know it’s like a meme to complain about at this point but sucks that it’s poly blends
I’m fine with it for jackets and stuff but for a shirt I’m gonna wear against the skin I’d really prefer all cotton
i feel like with that one its mainly the embroidery
interesting they're showing 75/25 for all the garments in this fabric, except the 19th century 100% cotton
Nepenthes New York
19 Century BD Shirt - Blue / White CP Embroidery
A classic shirt representing the heart of Engineered Garments, designed with motifs inspired by dress shirts made in the 19th century. It incorporates many details found in classic dress shirts, such as the overlapping rounded hem, underarm gussets, and deep side slits. Sewing is done with a single needle, which is lab
could be an error
def an error on the 19thct. The copy references it as seersucker
ahh yeah i see that now
midsommar vibes
grandmas best china vibes
I like it
Im staring at the 19th century rn
It looks very nice
Can confirm its not seersucker, its def the hankerchief fabric or something similar
TRR Bedford came in. Fit seems pretty good. Sleeves might be a tad long
love that homespun fabric
I'm itching for matching pants now
if you want a perfect match you just need to make sure the % of materials is the same. i think EG has been using the same poly wool blend in the last 3-4 years but yours is a bit older, i think.
Is there any easy way to tell exactly the year?
does the % match this one?

Engineered Garments Baker Jacket - Charcoal Wool Homespun on Garmen...
DESCRIPTION Engineered Garments charcoal wool homespun Baker jacket. For a full suiting pair with the Willy Post pant in charcoal wool homespun - Shell: 65% Wool, 20% Polyester, 15% Nylon - Lining: 51% Polyester, 49% Cotton
- Shell: 65% Wool, 20% Polyester, 15% Nylon
- Lining: 51% Polyester, 49% Cotton
lining is a key giveaway for season too. pants in wool are usually lined in the same fabric and they change up the linings every year or so
I think that's it. Im not home ATM
It's a Bedford rather than baker tho
the garmentory thing was posted for fw17 according to image file names
specifically that's a "New Bedford" rej fwiw. different model (slightly trimmer, diff sleeve finishing). only say that as i think it'll help narrow when it was made
I have found this Bedford on Vinted, do you know this exact model. Do you think it’s a good deal for 200€ ?
€200 seems expensive but might depend on the fabric.
It's an old model, pre 2011/12 (can't remember the exact year the labels changed).
Ok so I keep looking, thank you
It seems to be very hard to find a Bedford in EU, do you have any tips ?
I've had most luck looking on Yahoo Japan Auctions and paying the VAT/customs fees. Often still winds up much cheaper than much I've found in the UK/EU.
i will take a look, thank you
fromjapan.com is an option and there's a free (slow) vpn in the Opera browser that lets you set your location to wherever
Thank you !
Honestly 99% of the stuff on Yahoo auctions is from 2nd street or other big secondhand chains and it’s all duplicated on Rakuten anyway
you can filter by sold by store or individual seller!
it was a big game changer cause it changed from like 10+ pages to 5ish
Oh nice
I don’t even check auctions any more because of mercari + Rakuten but maybe I should
its been great, i feel like theres great deals to be had if you check often but i cant get another packaging starting otherwise i cant stop
Anyone have a norfolk in large? curious about the chest sizing as the measurements look quite small
You looking at that Navy Cotton One on eBay? That's from like 2007. Fit will be like a modern medium, I'd expect the sleeves to be fairly long
algoresky got eyes everywhere
yes haha
going to pass, i’ve been bulking and need the extra few inches in the chest for jackets
offer for 135 though, would have done it
17 year old jacket with tags is kinda nuts
Esp from a usa retailer. Had to be dedicated to seek out eg and then not wear it
this is insane lmao
was big into eg in 2011->2014 so i obsessed over the collections before that while being broke and trying to ID pieces from early seasons on y!jp. past that everything blurs but people here know the not-ancient-stuff so well
pretty sick jacket, didn't know they were cooking like that back in 07
the ancient lookbooks are up on the website. https://www.engineeredgarments.com/collections . Older seasons are really cool too -- they were inventing their own factory / developing new techniques (new machines) and didn't have enough $ to get their own fabrics made. That changed after daiki went to WWM. This means ya see a lot of recurring fabrics, some really weird rare stuff that they got like a single bolt of, and a lot of repurposing of other fabrics. The light brown ya see in the earliest lookbook seasons is an actual sailcloth canvas repurposed for jacketing / bags / shoes / pants

EG 15 years ahead of the MFA meta
they did run before 05. I think their first release was 99? i was 8 then so i've got no clue
it's honestly crazy how well this stuff has aged
if you're in boston, give a visit to drinkwaters as Gary was one of the first (if not the first) shops to buy EG wholesale
like this from 06 would look sick today
no kidding
fAsHuN iS cYcLiCaL crowd won because the fits get real bad in the 2010s
but the earlier stuff is closer to what people wear now
they were NOT cooking in 2014
that moldy patchwork baker rocks, who you kiddin
the rolled up blazer sleeves always get me 😵💫
J.gineered Crewments
the financial crisis was hard on everyone
styling that way 9 years before jcrew ripped it for wallace and barnes
this was actually right in the middle of frank muytgen's tenure
daiki saw the whale tray and was like we need to get in on this
my defense of this era -- you are damn spot on though it's definitely the most dated stuff to wear
way more than the pre 2011 stuff
do you know at what time/season did angelo start having influence over the design
14->19 was a lot of angelo's work
from what i've heard anyway, don't know the guy personally
from ss18 -- you can see a pretty clear throughline from this to 4sdesigns

Seems like a solid deal but the listing is sketchy, listed since January and the other stuff the seller has is nothing like EG.
Nice price. Probably not moving cause EG isn't necessarily Poshmark demographic
Anyone have any thoughts / experience of the Ivy jacket?
Guy in gen chat earlier seemed to like it
Jk that was the db
Hadn’t seen that pic , proportions look better in his pic than on the site :thinkbutt:
I think he's sized down
Think he posted a price tag and it was a medium
Hearts set on the linen twill if it’s as dense as it looks, was planning on the loiter but saw some decent pics of the ivy. Will have to wait and see.
Update : I won an auction with buyee, results in my mail box in a few weeks
I recently received this EG parka that i won on an ebay auction but can’t find much info, can anyone id it?
That's a tropical wool Atlantic parka. Can't recall the exact season but somewhere between 2015 and 2019 I'd guess
that helps to narrow down the search a lot, many thanks!

Same fit as Bedford is best case. Just have to find the right fabric.
Went for the ivy in linen walked away with the Bedford in green cotton hemp satin.
Fabric / colour won me over. Matching officer pants. The officer pants are :wiiide:
15.25” rise
Holy moly
Barely need a shirt
looks great!!
It’s basically a fatigue sateen suit I couldn’t say no.
I really like cotton/hemp blends.
The fabric is lovely in person. Very light but textured.
Cool af
Needs some minor tweaks but yeah I’ll be living in this for the warmer months. My current eg stock is all A/W.
The officer pant is really good
fwiw i have this shirt and it rocks
Yeeeaaaah it’s really good and I’m very tempted to go for it
Not worried about scammy seller stuff, I’ll pay with PayPal and Amex I should be covered pretty good there
I usually wear Large shirts and I’m a Small in engineered garments (with room). So an XL is going to be massive
I have that shirt in a medium and it fits like a large for me
i have one in medium and one in large
I need that cord suit
It's a mismatched set, but yes, you do
work buddy let me try on his bedford so i guess now i have to get one
yup. no choice otherwise
Do the work shirts fit tts? Obviously they are quite long
they run fairly big. see my pics above. i'm 5'11 ~220lb. usually a large to XL in other brands
adding to rej's comment, they've gotten larger over the years. the last few seasons are at least a size up from a "normal" flannel
older work shirts fit smaller
so if you're looking at pre-owned and you don't know the season, you really need measurements
should add they're intentionally oversized. they want you to go tts for an oversized fit
That's good to know. I've got long arms so sizing down might not be an option. Might just go tts, I don't mind a big shirt
Yea pre 2019 id probably size up (I have a couple items from earlier in XL)
atta way
for comparison i'm 5-10 170 in tts medium in my newest ws from fw22
this is a large from i think ss15
I never noticed the chair changed
It’s a magical chair. It changed then back again
Lovely
EG friends, can you please help me ID this 70/30 cotton nylon jacket
"knockabout" jacket. think that ran 2015/2016ish
anyone remember what they called the double breasted joint with the removable lapels?

I really don’t like these ngl
EG shoe collabs are nearly always bad IMHO. Couple exceptions but not many, often just seem lazy.
I like their vans collabs
Paraboot too
That’s all really
These collabs are honkin
The sebagos live rent free in my brain and my eBay saved searches
Those too
Some of the sebagos were whack. Some were good.
There were like 50 pairs of various EG sebago collabs on the real real
I like the mismatched Docs from a few years back too.
I think all their rebook collabs are pretty bad but these make no sense
oh wow theyre gross lol
feel like so out of place with the brand
Idk how metallic shoes go with the kind of ruggedish look of EG
Exactly
I can sorta see how they go with some of the more "fun" EG fabrics.
I really like these
I have the brown ones but the gored tongue is kinda fragile. Got em for $30 new though so I can’t really complain
Maybe with some of the more wild shorts
Yeah, I have these from a few summers back, silver shoes could be fun.
i still feel like thatll just make the whole outfit extra loud and incongruous 😭
With all the very tame EG stuff I'm into and the stuff in stock at stores I check in on, I forget that they do some very loud stuff lol
I actually think their shoe collabs have been great on the whole
These are ass tho
The last photo in the slide sums them up - they should all be left in a heap in the corner
Lol
I kinda liked the Clark’s too from last month
Except I personally would remove the kilt
I like the single-piece suede upper, but don’t like crepe. And I like hiking boots eyelets
so you don't like half the shoe lol
More like 1/4
The kilt is removable
The sole is rubber not crepe
ah ok. i figured they kept the crepe
I like crepe from a distance but I live in MN so it gets wrecked by the weather here
yea i nearly ate shit in the rain here in my wallabees. learned my lesson
Fr
They salt the roads here a lot too which pretty much destroys the rubber after like one wear
Mine just dried out and fell apart walking from the parking lot to the office for a month
ah yea i pretty much reserve them for nicer days
That’s what I should have done. Those were like my first decent shoes though so I kinda just wore what I had
I have desert boots that are holding up but that’s mostly cause I never wear them
Idk why I got them
oh man these suck lol, i agree with the sentiment that EG shoe collabs are usually ass
i remember they did a collab with k swiss a couple years ago but like who wears k swiss??
Fr
EU.
They collab with some weird brands
Fair enough
i was sooo disappointed with their recent collab with izipizi. just put a skin on an existing model
And it was camo etc
Nothing against camo but idk, not for me
i dont mind the camo, its just how low effort it is. the cheeta one is ugly imo
I feel like this season of EG is really great, and FW is looking pretty good too, it’s not like they’re falling off (imo)
I just wish that would be reflected in the collabs
i think you mean EW
i wear and like the eg kswiss shoes lmao
one of their better collabs because it was essentially boring white shoes
that said, eg collabs seem like cashouts these days mostly. makes sense because daiki has to be so close to retiring
will the brand be dead without daiki?
don't defend the k swiss al no please
EG has so many alumni designers/spiritual successors that i wouldn't mind if they die when daiki leaves
None of the spinoffs come anywhere near the success or scale of EG. A damn shame. Might be missing a few, but here's the ones from my memory. All except battenwear are really, really struggling
* Battenwear
* SK Manor Hill
* 4S Designs
* AiE
* Abasi Rosborough (RIP)
* Niche
is south2 west8 related? or just similar in aesthetic
they are under the nepenthes umbrella at least
they're a nepenthes brand -- some wholesale some don't. some share designers, some don't. (like needles, rhodolirion, HOGGS, rough & tumble, the conspires, nepenthes purple label, Nepenthes New York, Nepenthes London, s2w8, AiE)
s2w8 has always been their fishing 'brand'. For ages it was just sunforager canvas bags
but they've obviously branched into their own thing and wholesale now
Isn't Post Overalls a spin out too?
not 100% sure. I know they've collaborated before (Post O'All Imperial). I think post even used eg's mfg before. That said, I think post is independent now.
Oh no, post o'alls are actually older.
I think it might have been the manufacturing thing I had in my head.
You need to write a book on the history of all the EG related brands and their iconic pieces. I'd 100% preorder
feel like battenwear was popping for like 1-2 years but then they just released the same things over and over again so it just disappeared from relevancy
wish niche was more well known, theyre probably on the top list for my favorite brands. wish they chose a better name and didnt have like 3 different instagrams
post imperial too i think? and ts(s) tangentially through blood if that counts lol
but yeah none of them are doing super hot
oh yeah the izipizi collab SUCKED
kway one was weird too
EG has almost become one of those brands that works because it communicates something more than the clothes themselves for a certain subset of menswear guys
like you're buying the workshirt because it's an EG workshirt with the EG pockets just as much as it's a quality piece
so every EG-like brand falls off because it's not EG
by far their best collab is honestly uniqlo, especially the most recent collection with the outerwear because it's just cheaper eg pieces basically
with eg i think their best collabs are usually the store exclusive collabs
kafka, tbb, canoe club, totem and then some jp stores have all done good ones
the most recent canoe club collab was meh
they also did a cool collab with battenwear that i wish i would’ve bought
i liked the light blue fatigues
it’s pretty basic but the jacket is one of my most worn things
i got the blue jacket/pants
i definitely skew towards the tamer eg stuff tho
same
the og vans slip ons are probably the best collab, new balance collab was good and the hoka collabs are like 50/50
i have a similar jacket that i wear all the time so i guess i could see why it hits, but it wasn't anything new really
yea the fit is so good tho
wide and kinda cropped, works well with the kinda shit i like to wear
i’m definitely a fan boy tho, most of my wardrobe is eg and orslow with a little s2w8, battenwear and vis
my faves were the hoka collab cause i still wear my tors after all these years and then the barbour bomber that chris and chuck have
still hunting that bomber
oh yea the barbour stuff was so good
wish i would’ve bought some of that too
the eg doc monkey boots came about right when i was looking for a pair of trickers red monkeys and i couldn't be happier
I have a Bureau Belfast X EG tweed suit that is so good.
that molloy fabric one i think you've posted is incredible
i had those in black but fucked up the sizing 😭
kafka has a ton of great collab pieces rn
Got a similar seh Kelly suit and whilst the fabrics are v similar the cut is so different (both are good)
lots of them on sale
gonna start buying any and all clearance eg to hoard and flip when daiki retires
all kinds of eg on ebay like the old wwm stuff: "DAIKI ERA GOD TIER"
idk what i’ll do when he retires lol
I've got a couple Kafka collabs that I wear a lot. Kafka crew are good people too.
Is the fit of that CC jacket very different to the claigton?
it just seems like a detroit jacket clone
Not a fan of the Reebok collabs, but at least they are not as bad as the adidas collab from the mid 2010s
those fucking things lmao
haven’t tried the claighton but i’m sure it is
it’s probably just a little more cropped
EG’s footwear collabs are so funny
They do the hoka tors one season and then the very next season they do those clown shoe bondis
I had one of those cropped beauforts from the same collection and i sold it!! Im full of regret
The 990v5 collab was good imo
I have the Sebago Overlap boots like them personally
But I have my pony hair ring boots up on eBay, just couldn’t get into them
i want the horse hair hoka bondis
990v5 collab is a can’t miss
I thought all the sebagos looked cool they just had bad quality hard ass leather
The reeboks that dropped today look fun
you goofed!!! everything in that collab was excellent
Yeah they took stupid long to break in
Aldi ass shoes
unintended compliment
RIP Ebay searches. Now flooded with shiny reeboks
How would/do you style the wool CPO shirt jackets?
I wear my charcoal one with fatigues and over a t shirt (like to button it all the way up too), and hiking boots or chambords
But it feels boring
just gotta add it to the -uniqlo
I feel like for the right price they could be fun but only would really wear them like twice a year
It's just a simple overshirt -- tee or collared shirt under. visually heavy pants if it's the winter wool (sateen, wool, denim, canvas, etc). Non-sneakers is my go-to -- derbys, boots, etc.
If it's a cotton twill or a lighter wool or something like that, you have a lot more flexibility in my mind for pretty much any pants or shoes
Thank you!! What color pants do you like to pair with charcoal?
That's best learned through trial and error. You've got a good eye, trust yourself
The bomber is so good
I miss mine. Before I sold it I’d pair it all the time with my cargos (FA or Norwegian) pants, a patterned shirt or graphic tee, and leave it open.
Cool thank you!!
ALD(I)
ok this resonates
threw out an offer on an EG chambray work shirt a couple weeks and it finally came in but very surprised at how slim it fits for an XL. guessing it must be older
Yeah I have an older L that fits slimmer than more recent S, shorter too
im bedford hunting and it does make it tricky to size, i donno if i'm L or XL. I know I'm a L in the new ones but the "new tag" era ones feel like they vary. i want a bit of slouch.
i tried my buddy's on but he got it on grailed so whooo knows.
this is an XL. 2019 ish i think we concluded
Thinking I might take my Bedford in to get the sleeves shortened a bit. I've folded them in on themselves in this pic and think it looks better?
Yeah that length looks pretty good
ah sick. yeha i think im an XL in the older ones but the newer ones I think I'm a L, looking generally at 20 shoulder, 24 p2p. Ish.
I think this is about that. Probably more like a 46 chest
well if it isn't some beautiful patchwork back in the lineup... https://www.instagram.com/p/C6dzBrpJRHv/?img_index=1

since the preview isn't bringing up anything useful, here's some ripped images
i like the blue
corduroy headed into summer feels like it couldve waited til f/w
this is not hitting like 2019 hate to say
looks like you're wearing dazzle camo
:hard: but also Hard to wear
i think the diagonal panels are giving me jordan peterson vibes
I like the trousers but really not into the jackets.
I agree with walt
Its making my primordial lizard brain light up but if i think about it for longer than a second its like ehh. I wouldnt actually wear this very well
personally feels much closer to tb's patchwork than it does that jordan peterson hellsuit.
The olive feels like it's a straight up overrun of the patchwork fabric they made in 2019
maybe i just miss 2019
but i feel like the patch placement was better and the bedford is a better vehicle than the andover
the pants were the real thing though
Still wearing my 19 fatigues and Bedfords regularly. The olive fatigues have aged real nice too.
ah fuck you've ruined it
still waiting for a pair of the pants to pop up in my size
ope speaking of 🫢
i had the matching pants and regret selling them 😭
I have the black patchwork cords of these season and agreed that they are probably my fave fatigues. all the patchwork is monochrome but the different wales looks pretty cool
Man I love EG
which pant is this @narwhal ? I don’t see the fatigue pant pocket or something like a pleat for the carlyle
Deck pant. These are navy double cloth
If the lighting was better in this pic, you wouldn't have to squint to see that they're double-knees. The front pocket is hidden by the shirt
Same pants here, you can make out the details a little better
I like how the double knee adds to the volume of the drape, too bad (for me) that’s a hard to find cut 😢
The stiffness of the double cloth is doing some work there, too
Seems like deck pants were only one season (fw22). Field pant might be the replacement. Similar details, maybe not so balloony
I've had some deck pants taunting my grailed inbox. i probably don't need another pair of green pants though
I think it's a great cut. Makes the fatigues feel slim
In your guys’ experience do the older numeric-sized pants line up with the alpha sizing they use now (small = 34”)?
I usually wear a ~32” in most other pants but wear a small in EG, so I was curious if I should stick with my usual 32” waist or size up on older stuff like I do with the more current pants
The numeric sized pants are true to the size on the label IME, a lot of them fit slimmer in general though so you might consider sizing up for the extra space in other dimensions
Sweet, thanks. I was looking at the WP pants and wanted to make sure. I imagine with the rear cinch and the drawstrings, sizing up shouldn’t be too risky
I also have this same dilemma, looking at pants that’s tagged as sized 28 and 30 and wondering which one to get. I’m a XS in EG in tops, and waist is 30”. I’m leaning size 30 size I can always belt it up.
The drawstrings help a lot if you over size
At least from what I’ve tried on
If they're tagged with a number, they probably won't have a drawstring on the waist
I sized up on my patchwork fatigues and they're beeg. like they free fall off me if i don't belt them
Yeah, the ones I’m looking at do not have a drawstring in them.
I would think belt will be necessary for the size 30. I just don’t know if I wanna chance it with the 28 if I couldn’t button the top button or making them cheek huggers 😩

Totem actually states tag size to waist size measurement in case that helps you!
Kafka's pretty good about measurements too
i think i know the answer to this but i assume no sizing down for loiter from bedford size and it's just meant to be a bit big ya?
imo yes. But like bedford, loiter has grown. My old M olive cord is probably 2 sizes down from my newer M poly/wool herringbone
yeah specifically looking at current season stuff. it's a difference of ~2 inches pit to pit and about an inch in shoulder between bedford/loiter
That sounds right. Loiter is very slouchy and it shows in the dropped shoulders
I think it's easy to size a bedford like a chore coat or even a more tradional blazer, but the loiter just doesn't quite work that way imo
yeah that's sorta my concern, maybe ill stick to bedford for now. loiter you reckon needs a bit more of an intentional slouch to the whole fit?
Not necessarily. I think it works with a range of fits. But it is inherently slouchy and I just wouldn't try to unslouch it by sizing down
fwiw I think a loiter would work well in your wardrobe
Anyone have the painter’s pants from this season? Is the waist drawstring? Are they slightly cropped?
I actually measured the sizes I still have in stock https://shophomme.com/products/painter-pant-in-natural-chino-twill?_pos=4&_psq=Painter&_ss=e&_v=1.0

I ordered the blue ones earlier today. Those look insanely wide for a 50 year old man. Lmao. I hope I can pull it off.
Perfect leg silhouette imo
i almost bought the green ones today
denim ones look the coolest but i’ve already got eg fatigues in the same fab
Just curious, did EG ever make a WP short?
The painters are really cool and pretty lightweight. I’ll be rocking them for a bunch of concerts this summer. I should’ve snagged the green ones too.
Thanks for the help on sizing! Happy with the fit 🤩
@The Good Morning Man im siked we’re actually getting the man himself to embroider stuff in store during the party
yo that's so awesome
sup gang, anybody know if this season's brown polycotton waffle fabric is dry clean only?
Are those brown office pants 👀
they are!
I found a Japanese site with a pic of the care label
are these eg's most visually aggressive pant https://www.ebay.com/itm/315399871103
fwiw i have since bought and returned a loiter, it looked like i was wearing my big brother's jacket. just a lil toooo wide for me. might size down in the future (don't tell anyone).
i also got a bedford but haven't tried it in a fit yet, but seems to fit good in the same size.
Anybody know if Nepenthes/EG is doing a sample sale this year? I feel like there hasn't been one since 2019 and that one was in June

Heres the jacket along with a cool editorial we put together with satoshi https://shophomme.com/pages/otakara-nyc
I'm so psyched on the shirt I got but damn is it going to be a pain to find a buyer for the other one
Otakara is incredible
I had a nightmare that I threw the shirt in the dryer and it shrunk and all the embroidery looked bad
Do y'all generally prefer tucking or keeping untucked button downs under a Bedford?
Depends on how/what you're styling with it
Wide fit chinos, casual button down and derbies
Hard to say without actually seeing the fit tbh. Pictures are priceless.
i wore mine today with just an untucked tshirt tbh i think it really does depend on the vibe. instinct is to say maybe tuck with the dressier shoe but echoing we gotta see dat pic
Anybody have the climbing pants and if so, thoughts?
I have a pair, the ripstop is quite stiff at first and they seem to pick up a lot of fluff
really like them though, all the small details and zips are really cool, and they should break in really nicely and soften up, I haven't worn them loads yet
They look pretty cool I’m just debating on how much I’ll wear them. I have some field pants and while I like them I don’t wear them a lot and I feel like the climbing pants might end up the same
Auction only at $11 (before shipping/handling) with less than 6 hrs left!
It's size M but the measurements look smaller?
It's an old (2014?) brown homespun Bedford, one of the best eg fabrics of all time
Fit was really small back then. I had an L that was like 21" p2p
What would you think the pit to pit would be from this and that's it's size M?
That's sick thank you! It says smoke grey tho?
Pic isn't really helpful but I'd guess M is 19
Nah it's brown. Pretty sure this was the only version with elbow patches
Thank you!! I think I may bid then. What would be your go to to style it with?
Gosh that's small for a size M lol
Anything you'd wear a brown tweed jacket with. Denim, corduroy, chinos. Super versatile
Yep for sure small. I doubt their current xs is that small lol
Sorry sorry I was thinking S. M is probably 20" p2p
I had a ss14 Bedford in M and p2p was around 20”
Thank you both!!!
gl buddy
I have the olive ripstops, absolutely love em
Is the fit similar to the fatigues? Or is it a different silhouette
i’d say a little wider but nothin crazy
Now it's at $34, who bid? :xd:
me if i tried to put that one on
wasnt your other eg jacket a huge score too? i believe in you, $34 ain't bad
Ahh idk if I'm feeling it
Yah my other two EG pieces were each $35 or $40 at the chain consignments in nyc
jeez it ultimately sold for $136 at the last minute
Picked up the black corduroy versions of the Explorer shirt jacket and the deck pants as a set for a crazy price on Grailed. When worn together I may be able to fit everything I own in all the pockets

Yup that’s an engineered garments season all right
I’m never gonna wear it like the models do but I like it more than SS24
corduroy and wool ?? in MY FW???
One of the models looks uncannily like me and I don't know what to think.
I’m curious what pants these are. Could be some regular model but the leg seems different from their usual offerings.
I’m intrigued by the striped piece here
Also wondering about these boots
the boots have already been released

Missed these somehow. Not a fan of shearling unfortunately
A pair of pants like that have been on my mind for a while. I hope these are actually pants and not a coverall/boiler suit kinda deal
Nvm they’re actually pants :hellyeah:
Look like they've made the Andover's wider?
I really like their poly wool blend that they used on last years loiter too. I might get a jacket from them for the first time this season
Some FW24 stuff up at NNY https://nepenthesny.com/collections/new-arrivals
The work shirts are excellent
Honestly everything so far is awesome
are the s24 navy ripstop fatigues really this contrast-y or is it just this store pic?
shawl shirt and flared shirt really have me interested. If anyone gets their hands on em, post your thoughts!
Shawl shirt looks really good. I'm in London this week so I'm gonna stick my head in nepenthes.
Any thoughts on the reefer? Grabbed my eye when they dropped, thinking of scooping a used one in navy wool or cord for AW.
didn't love that one for me. felt more like a weird peacoat than a db. Cool if that's what you're aiming for and I think you of all people would look great in it
I like the DB they're doing this season a lot more. The removable lapels and such are so cool if they made it to production
It’s somewhere between a peacoat and tailoring. Their product shot for the cord version sells it better let me see if I can find it. Have to check out the new db
this button stance and button positioning feels so weird to me buttoned. Unbuttoned is way better
There’s a drawcord at the waist. Off shoulder and cinched I think looks great but hard to nail without trying it on for sizing
i really wanted the cord one in navy and regret not getting it. didn't pull triger for same reason, couldn't find it to try in person
It is weird and wrong which is half why I like it but I could see it looking like absolute dogshit if the fit doesn’t suit your measurements
and i could be wrong this season. Seeing a peak DB but looks like the removable lapel is a bedford of some sort
though this fucking ROCKS
Black cord looks so good
I can't tell what the deal with this jacket is but i'm intrigued
Asymmetric? Bolero with a fowl vest pocket
Looks nuts. Fabric is 🤌
definitely a season where daiki is taking the rough & tumble breakapart concept to the conclusion and i couldn't be more here for it
searching "engineered garments reefer" and getting fired from work for searching for drugs
could also be convertible. like how they styled the knit jackets in fw19
I don't know what season it's from but I've got a DB where you can unbutton the lapel and it's the dumbest fun thing I've got from the brand
thinking it might be that kind of fastening
wearing it as a peacoat looks really great. Including one bad styling pic to inspire fear.
Good finds, cheers! The serge looks a little flat compared to the cord.
hard to believe, the flared shirt seems like it's going to be cool, big, and flared out
big if true
There's some very good stuff in this collection.
what's standing out to ya so far this fw?
The flare and the shawl shirts, nice to see wool back. All the jacquard fabrics.
Seems to be a lot more uniform Serge items than their have been for a while too?
Does the serge stay consistent year to year or is it a dice roll?
Afaik same mill and spec but I'd call it a dice roll because they could do different pre or post sew treatments year to year
did anyone get anything from last season in the indigo cotton voile? and is the dye still bleeding for you ? i think i've washed my shirt 4-5 times now and just blued myself again
Anyone know how thick the 19th century oxfords are?
Depends on the season. Fairly hefty. Not worth buying if you just want a "normal" ocbd - just get Kamakura/Jpress/vintage Brooks instead.
Get 19th for the strong a line cut that is best untucked.
I really like some of the patterned ones
And I think my OCBDs are too slim to wear untucked
benji i don't think you'll like a 19th century button down
But yeh I was wondering if they'd be a good summer shirt with my Bedford
it's got a real a-line silhouette and the older ones have a fit i don't think you'll love (6 buttons). The modern are 7 buttons and feel like it'd be too long
Wdym A-line?
And what's the 6 button fit?
most shirts are a V-Line. top of the V being a torso that tapers down
Flared/bigger waist than shoulders.. And yeah, they're LONG. Like I'm 6'2 and a small reaches my thighs.
A is the opposite in that it's either straight or in this case the opposite of a taper
Ah I see
I'm not sure if I'd prefer one or the other but too long would make wearing it untucked a problem lol
so it's a BIG silhouette. The older ones have REALLY high gussets that need like a 14"+ rise in order to tuck and not have them slip out. Those have 6 buttons on the placket which is how you can ID them. Even with this, fits vary so buyer beware
The new ones are even bigger and longer and you ID them by 7 buttons on the placket
Oh shit
The patterns are sortve unique tho right?
Is there an alternative for shirts with the 19th century patterns?
Depends on what you're looking for in a shirt. The workshirt is the OG standard for EG and is a rip of a Big Yank shirt. Still has an A-silhouette but is more conventional.
The short collar shirt is a good one up your alley imo, but in all of these if you just want a basic shirt get it elsewhere. Buy an EG shirt for a particular intention
Thank you! Looking for something beyond a basic shirt esp in terms of a cool pattern
And not especially workwear or western coded
For reference, I’m 5’8 and this is a size small 19th century ocbd untucked
That's not bad?
If you want something more conventional but with cool patterns there’s always the short collar shirt
benji you will regret it
i promise you
Is the short collar shirt always cotton btw?
Lol I'll definitely not order one online then. May go to the nepenthes store at some point and try one on
much better plan
Was gonna say just try one out in store. And I do like how it looks but it does feel like it’s too long sometimes.
Also, most short collar shirts are cotton but can’t say all of them are for sure
All the ones rn are patchwork
Not feeling the patchwork. What are y'all's favorite patterns from seasons past?
There's been some decent paisleys in the past.
Ooh paisley is cool thank you
There have also been a few non-patchwork batik pattern shirts I think, alright my favourite I’ve are patchwork
drop 2 at nepenthes ny. highlights for me are the trans jacket (removable lapel with a shawl and peak you can button in!!) and the over vest
Super interesting
Sucks that the g8 jacket is so expensive this season
right? that nyco looks so cool but tough to justify a nyco jacket for nearlyh 1k
i should’ve got the navy one last fw 😭
Dude that jacket would be perfect for you
blkblu had it and it sold out right when it hit sale haha

Has anybody here had experience with hand washing their “dry clean only” linen EG products?
Wondering how seriously I should take that label
depends on the garment and fabric used
woolens and such i'd get dry cleaned nearly universally
I’ve done my linen camp shirt on a “hand wash” cycle before with no agitation and it was fine
@jams
Interesting thanks for the info, I’ve got a linen loiter and I was wondering how strict to be
I'd hand wash that or dry clean it if you want it to maintain it's shape. The lining and interfacing (different than a canvas, which no EG jackets have except some southwick stuff from a decade+ ago) will shrink if washed hot or dried at all
If it was me and it was an unlined chorecoat style (eg: bedford) I'd consider washing it normally knowing that it's going to make it really wonky and "worn in". Even then, it'd be a choice to change the garm pretty fundamentally
Yeah it was shrinkage I’m concerned about mainly! I’ve never had anything dry cleaned before so I suppose I’m just unsure about what to expect if I went down that route
I suppose the thing I need to worry about is the sleeve lining then? (If i was to hand wash)
yeah. If you use cool water and air dry you're probably okay. If you're at all worried, I'd bring it to a dry cleaner which should run ya like $15. Shouldn't need to get it cleaned often
Thanks, that’s super helpful
I just wash my linen camp shirts in the machine and hang dry
No issues so far

Very cool designer out of Toronto. Makes really nice denim, jackets and trousers. https://wearhenrys.com/
All run by one guy
Love this jacket
new eg paraboots coming soon
hiking loafers
Miss for me
More for everyone else I suppose
Yeah don’t think I fw these
Am I right in thinking over pants are real wide?
I think they fit similar to these EG pants that I have
Yes they do
I can post pics later
Anyone able to id exactly what these EG trousers are called? Think I'd found them once before but now cannot locate
Also the label. excuse my shite pics again
cinch pant from before 2010
legend, thank you - i'd been searching for "buckleback" which explains why i was getting fuck all on google
Digging the fake suede B3 jacket
grabbed some black bull denim fatigues, gotta hem them. think it's worth the extra cost to keep and reattach the lil cinch holes on the hem (no string in them) or should i just get them to chop it off
I tried feeding some strings thru a pair of mine and wasn't really into the look of them cinched. I could take it or leave it I think
When you're too colorblind to appreciate 🥲
he also used the floral denim in his spade jacket
TRR has an xl at 32.5" waist for these. That doesn't seem right?
elastic back
so it'll stretch. someone else here can speak better on how those size than i can
I have the RF jeans, awesome fabric. I get lots of compliments on them. I love this jacket silhouette
now that fall is back i have to ask if anyone sees the double pleated pants in this fabric in small/medium/30/32 please hit me with a brick because i will buy them
This OWNS
Need.

It doesn't look like there's a size tag were these free size? And if so is it really only max like 21in p2p like the seller says? 😭 😭
I don't remember how these size. It's from SS12. Will not be at all water repellent as the nyco they used that season is cool but not functional at all.
Yeah definitely just looking for cool and not function. Water repellence mostly a scam anyway imo. Ty!
SS12 makes me think it probably is tiny tho…
for sure. Things that I've had from that season fit true-to-size albeit a little slim. Not Skinny slim, but far slimmer than current cuts
just measured the peacock jacket i have from that season and it's a medium with a 20.5" p2p which is pretty bog standard for slim medium from the era
The older he gets the weirder the zippers get

Kudos to them for trying to put their own spin on the denim jacket instead of just doing a repro with their label on it
The hardwear is no joke and the fabric is really heavy
sorry but these are awful lmao
this is cool, i like that they mixed some details of a harrington in but not too many
the keen jaspers they did a while back are way cooler
Keen jasper is just a cool shoe to begin with
extremely true
they’re also insanely comfy
my heart is breaking because the zip blazer looks so bad zipped up
Yikes
Looks like 💩
The shoulder is invisible but that side is busted
100%. I'm guessing it'll be a gamble. But if this is the one they chose to photo, makes me terrified for the ones they didn't
Anyone have experience with bombers from EG? I'm thinking of copping this off eBay
That'd be the "Tanker" jacket from FW14 or so. if you google "Engineered Garments Tanker Jacket" you'll see fits of it to get an idea of how it fits on someone. The notable thing that you might find off is the constantly stand collar and the handwarmer pockets being pretty high
Hmm ya those pockets are really high
What's the opinion on their bedfords btw? They seem really hard to style into an outfit appropriately without going full hobochic
bedfords are the easiest jacket in the world to wear. Go good with a tee, go good with a button up. Good with jeans, good with slacks. Still the modern chorecoat that happens to have a great peak lapel
Wow the darling of classic 2010s mfa being referred to as “hobochic”…what’s happening
Hey I'm just saying their lookbooks are ... Something else
Like those guys look like space hobos or something
it's a brand that can be styled in many different ways. Most of them are a slightly cooler version of Jcrew
Ya I live their work shirts
Love*
The Bedford just looks like it would be very sloppy looking
Like I love the look of this one but it looks so shiny even in the lookbook
if you're near a major city, you can probably find a bedford to try. Nearly every stockist carries it in at least 1 fabric

Stockists — Engineered Garments

I've linked a few pics with bedfords, please remember to be kind even if you don't like these outfits as these are real human beings who are on this server with you.

Eg is the first brand of designer stuff I found I liked but I'm such a newb to this stuff. Appreciate the info
The fun of EG is you get into it because it's advanced jcrew and then you realise the look books are really fun and EG is way more interesting than their good basics. Maybe.
and then you come back around to thinking it's just advanced j crew and feel like you're over it, then someone posts a cool fit with it and you're back in then oscillate back and forth between those two states forever
Tbh ya it feels like an easier stepping stone for me into this crazy fashion world
Red wing collab(?) coming. It looks like the already existing triple black moc toes though

Jcrew/EG collab coming
whaat
feel like itll be super boring but hoping im wrong!
Did I dream up an EG Jcrew collection like 2-3 weeks ago?
I thought they just did one
items got posted to the site but quickly got hidden
i was literally just thinking it was weird they've never collabed
i already have the socks lol
ordered when i got the IG ad haha
In hand?
evolsirhc you've gotta give feedback. are they cool
Was it EG stuff at EG prices or EG-adjacent stuff at Jcrew prices
evol!!
J crew stuff at EG prices surely
Itll probably be eg x uniqlo quality
yea they’re pretty nice! wool blend, mismatched
i got 2 pairs so i can match them if i want to lol
excuse the dog hair on them already hahaha
the other stuff kinda just looked like dumbed down eg
like FA pants with less pockets, patchwork blazer / pants combo with less details than an andover suit, etc
there’s a really cool cardigan i might grab tho
canoe club has a 7 piece collab dropping next week so i’ll probably hold off on most of the j.crew stuff even if it’s j.crew prices
Ohhh that explains it. I saw the stuff on a j crew ig ad and thought “that looks like fa pants” and clicked the link and it was dead
And I’ve been going a bit crazy trying to find them since then
I’m assuming it’s not MiUSA?
These are fun
no clue haha, the socks are made in korea
Back in the good old days JC used to support American workers…
I’m just excited that we’re finally going to make it 100% impossible to search for EG on grailed
Right now there’s still a 25% chance you’ll find something that isn’t a Uniqlo fleece
it will be really cool if they do a full kids collection tho
these were the only thing i saw before the links went dark
oh shit they’re doing the cardigan for kids too
I wonder if there's a kids 6XL might fit me
my nephews getting kitted out
they’ve got an adult sized version of the same thing
Oouuhhh
New EG collab with Red Wing
I noticed though that EG hasn't been doing asymmetrical designs lately with some of their collabs, new design direction kind of thing?
Most the footwear collabs are assymetrical cos it's easy/cheap/lazy.
Though fw24 has quite a lot of assymetry in the main collection.
I like those a lot but i didn’t really like my moc toe comfort when i had them
I feel like most people agree RW is just generally pretty uncomfortable but that was remarkably bad for me
I feel like the asymmetry thing is kind of played out. The keen collab had it a little bit with the toe covering but like pancake said, it’s a bit played out.
now personally i wouldn't be mad if they just kept making assymetrical stuff until the heat death of the universe
Bring back asymmetrical vans slipons!!!!!
this!!!!!!
i’d wear my vans every day if i knew i could replace them
This
I was just being a hater but I love their vans collabs
I got the era gored shoes when they had the vans vault clearance but they didn’t really fit
I just like never having to tie my shoes ever
Literally this
this is good but also really funny to me that the jcrew collab is more interesting than a canoe club collab https://www.instagram.com/p/DA_Ew7BODny/?img_index=1
I think I like the canoe club collab a bit more
The j crew collab prices are a bit too high to justify for me. And everything just slightly misses for me
I like the cardigan and twill work shirt though. I wish they had pictures of the latter untucked though
BOTH are good
canoe club really seems to understand what EG is best at
I think it's good, but it's incredibly boring and does nothing interesting. Might as well be Sierra Designs
jcrew at least plays with some different silhouettes and detailing which is wild to say in contrast
canoe club's collab (and buy) might as well be Independence's Buy (derogatory)
The CC FA pant is priced lower than I thought at least
CC one reminds me of just Beams
the jcrew the one thing i want they released just as a kids version...
I mean the jcrew eg collab is just beams at least imo
thats true lol
everything is beams
which thing? the denim shirt?
yup!
there’s a workaday version they’ve made before and orslow made something similar
the j.crew stuff is kind of priced how eg used to be priced
but it’s all imported :xd:
oh sweet, ty ill look into it! been wanting to open a new proxy package anyways
And i dont think its fair to ding canoe club’s collab like that
Looks like jcrew had control over the fabrics and manufacturing so of course they could do more
It's wild that "This is good but boring" is interpreted as "this is bad"
Is boring a positive word to you? Lol
Understood. I will refrain from giving further feedback on this.
o7
I think the CC stuff is cool
The pale blue is a nice color
And it all works together as a cohesive set
Also I don’t think the j crew stuff is thaaat interesting it just looks like Wallace and Barnes tbh
Agreed
This collection is somewhere between “what if we made wallace and barnes but good” and “what if we made eg badly”
Yea the only thing i’m really interested in is the cardigan but i’m gonna wait for it to hit sale lol
I’m definitely grabbing the tan CC jacket tho
I got the socks this AM
Nice they’re comfy
Cardi looks fun but I'm not dropping 200 on it rn
i’m wearin em today
this is what i truly want
Pockets
Anyone scoop the jcrew garms?
Nothing really stood out to me honestly, plus it all said “imported” and was priced kinda high considering you could spend the same money on gently worn second hand EG
Yea what was it, $1200 for the suit?
Maybe a little less?
It's a little boring but honestly a nice version of the Khaki
Im afraid to ask the price on that
I'm hardly a watch guy but if I were to get one it would be something plain like this (I am not buying this)
$1200 in JPY
:artwow:
1/1999 probably plays into that price a bit I bet
Oh I missed that it was titanium
Honestly a really cool rendition of one of my favorite field watch designs. But hard to justify at that price when you can get a Ranger or Railmaster for not much more
If it had a cream dial like other Hamiltons i'd be all over it. The fact it's black is probably saving me a grand
True. I have the cream dial version of the khaki mechanical watch and it's by far my favorite over the black version.
if they would’ve freaked it like the timex collab i’d for sure have tried buying one
Def. I don't know enough about watches to know if there is anything actually interesting about this
It seems to be smaller than their other titanium khaki field watches but that's about it a part from it being a limited edition
I wouldnt want a ranger or a railmaster but yeah the price is daft
Bought the interliner and flannel from j crew just now
Really great
The kimono sleeves on the flannel and the quasi-turtleneck on the interliner both suit my body really well
Ignore the rest of the fit
Engineered Garments
Is the interliner one size?
EG x CC has been acquired 🤘
they’ve got multiple sizes online
unfortunately the only jcrew near minneapolis doesn’t get any of the cool shit so i haven’t seen it in person 😭
No. I got an S.
Wore my EG Jcrew socks yesterday and did a bit of walking. Build up of foot heat and moisture melted the logo on the bottom and refused it to the insole of my shoe
Nice. Now your shoes are engineered
Hell yea
Probably a dumb question: but can anybody tell me how to button holes on the cuffs of EG fatigues are supposed to work?
Not sure I know what you mean. my fatigues have drawstring holes at the cuffs
I think that’s what they’re talking about
If so - problem solved
I have a pair with drawstrings in em, and a pair without. Both purchase secondhand so not sure where they come from or if they're just a DIY
It's for cinching the hem. If there isn't a drawstring it was probably removed by a previous owner
Ahhhh weird I did buy them on Grailed but they still had the tags on so I didn’t think of that. That explains it thanks!
Pretty sure they also make some pants that have those holes but don’t come with drawstrings. I guess you could add your own if you wanted
yea my black fatigues didn't have them. i was going to get them to reattach/recreate the holes for the cinch when i hemmed but ended up just losing 'em
Oh interesting mine are also black fatigues so maybe they just made them that way. I was somehow interpreting it as like a cuff link situation haha
I have several pairs I got new and all came without drawstrings but with the holes. FA pants on the other hand have drawstrings. It's just a little detail.
I have put a drawstring in one pair of my fatigues before though.
Sometimes they don’t come with drawstrings but you can still put some in there
anyone know when this piece came out from EG?
I think they've done black cord loiters a bunch of times
I love this one and am so tempted lol
These releases are getting ridiculous
when EG and Kapital
Want
how would you style the interliner? I'm really drawn to it but I have no idea how I'd wear it lol
i think i usually see it used with lots of layering or proportions so like, long shirt underneath, maybe an overshirt or bedford or something on top
Yea it's a 'i think this fit would look cool with a hood'
g8 jacket I proxied arrived, darker than thought it would be tbh but I love it
Good jacket
I have two interliners and this + what @-# rej said. I also think they work best in really textured or patterned fabrics.
Congrats on buying the best jacket ever made
been obsessed since I saw it, was nearly impossible to find one in the uk though
I just wear it under any jacket or coat that doesn’t have a hood to add visual interest to the outfit.
It’s almost like a scarf
In terms of styling, the same rules apply.
Im happy to confirm that these pants are indigo dyed

Fatigue Pant in Dk. Navy Cotton Heavy Basketweave
Engineered Garments Workaday combines their famous construction and attention to detail with the Fatigue Pant, the perfect uniform pant meant to be worn often. This edition is cut from a sturdy cotton basketweave fabric that features a sturdy texture that will soften and fade with wear. 100% cotton Zipper fly Tab waist
I want to rub them on my face
feel that texture
Anyone familiar with this shirt? Fabric looks like chambray but it's hard for me to tell from this pic
Chambray from SS10 or SS11. I had that shirt, do not recommend it. Fit is very regular (like 20" p2p iirc on small) but the pleat in the pockets give it a nasty shape unless you're wearing it as an overshirt and the fabric isn't conducive to that
Thanks for the headsup. I couldn't tell if that was a pleat or a secondary pocket opening but can imagine what you're describing
Shame since the sizing looked nice for me and it's an interesting design, but I'll hold off
lol I just bought one of these second hand and it literally arrived yesterday. Wish this topic had come up sooner because I was shocked how much smaller it was than my other EG stuff.
if I see that older EG tag on something, I just erase it from my memory
the sizing on the older stuff is wild
some of the old tag stuff is so good tho, just need measurements
but big sizes are hard to find 😭
so true, I just know the larges are gonna have a 19 p2p and try not to dwell on it
the couple shirts i have/had with that tag i found fit relatively normal (22/23" for a large) at least in comparison to some of the newer stuff i've had
case in point being some bedford jacket i had bought recently and had to sell again cos it was fucking mental big for an XL
I bought a new EG combo shirt recently, was pretty disappointed by how many loose threads there were
Does anybody know if there is a way to get replacement buttons for an EG piece?
Contact Nepenthes NY, they're most likely to be able to help.
Sweet thought that might be the best bet. I’ll try that. It’s just one button from a relatively recent pair of fatigues so hopefully they’ll have it.
There are replacement buttons on the inside of the left back pocket on my pairs
Just getting a non matching button from your local tailor would certainly fit the ethos of the brand fwiw.
May even look cooler if I may say…
Woah you’re totally right… amazing!
Left field nyc used to sell vintage buttons on their site, really cool ones too.
Looks like they don't sell them online anymore, damn. You can probably email the guy and see about buying enough to justify shipping, they have vintage metal catseye and bone buttons and all kinds of cool options
I bought a bunch awhile ago and use the old catseye metal workwear buttons on my flannels, they will never break in the wash
Yeah I love stuff repaired with vintage buttons
such a cool look!
Anyone own one of the liner jackets? How do you like it?
packer x big x eg collab is a beauty (and up on nepenthes)
over FA pant :sickosyes:
wow that pant is great, might pick up the blue ones since I lost hope in finding the deck pants
I like mine. Use both sides a lot this time of year as top layer and never actually use it as a liner
Looking at a black one with the black sherpa but I have so many jackets. But it’s a good deal and hard to pass up
I’ll say the one annoying thing is that the hood buttons can be finicky and undo themselves on a whim, so I mostly use it hoodless
My deck pants are my absolutely favourite pair of pants. what colour fabric are you looking for?
Yeah I don’t care for the look with hood tbh
the blue ones
if you're xs, they usually have stacking sales for black friday
