Engineered Garments fatigue pants
The inseam is just brutal. Anyone have them? Are the measurements on blue owl workshop accurate? Seems wild to have your inseam be like 30.5-31" inches.

The Great American-Made Oxford Roundup
So, a month ago I asked for some oxford advice and it ended up pushing me down a rabbit hole. Who is making nice American-made OCBDs? Where do you go when you're willing to drop a bit of cash on some nice shirts, ethically produced? There were a few options and internet research can only take you so far, so I ordered 3 of options and tried them on. Here are my results. I haven't done this before so I'm going to try this in a thread. And FYI, each of these shirts was a size large.

American Trench Oxfords
Anyone tried the American Trench slow weave oxfords? The price point is pretty gnarly, but they look nice. Deciding between them, New England Shirt Co, or Gitman Vintage.

OCBD fit: Gitman Vintage vs New England Shirt Co
Oxford fit question. Anyone have any recent experience with New England Shirt Co vs Gitman Vintage? Trying to decide which one is the better choice. I like the look of Gitman, but their size large has a 47" chest vs NESC's 42-44". But then again, it's odd that the NESC fit chart has a 2" range as well. I'm not necessarily opposed to a more relaxed fit if the shirt is well constructed, but a bit worried the Gitman shirt will feel pretty baggy.
I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs, athletic build, with a roughly 41.5-42" chest. When I measured a couple old OCBDs from Everlane and Banana Republic (we're talking 10 year old shirts) I found the chest appeared to be very roughly 43.5-45".
Thanks!
