All UES today. The mechanic shirt is one of my favorite SSBD. Starting to get a little character fade. The linen denim have been awesome for summer and travel. Enjoying the evo. Surprisingly warm enough when hiking at altitude in windy and wet conditions. I think the weave is fairly tight. But also decently breathable and quick drying in heat and humidity as you would expect from linen.

Has anyone picked up any ues shorts? Got a pair of duck wabash on the way but keen to know what the actual fit is like

@68degreesorless very interesting re hiking in cotton linen blends. I purchased the recent IHSH-443-IND from SS26 for this exact purpose! It's good to see such an old, versatile textile still in use in a world enamoured by synthetics. Patiently awaiting a restock of UES' 100% linen t shirts, though I spoke with the owner, Matsumoto-san, in Osaka back in February and he said it's becoming increasingly difficult to find mills that will weave linen in Japan as it is a more demanding and specialised process than cotton.

I'm beginning to think the mills just push back on anything that is a bit unusual that the forum really likes

@futura I have the brown duck shorts. The fabric is very nice and fades and softens pretty quickly. The inseam is a bit too long IMO. I'd like to get them hemmed a couple inches. Withered Fig says they are cut with a low rise, but I find myself wanting to pull them up on my waist higher than I normally wear pants. Maybe that is just b/c of the inseam length. I'm not sure and I haven't measured. Hope they work out well for you.

Thanks, I suspect the inseam will be a bit longer for me so will probably have then taken up as well as ideally want them falling just above the kneecap

@futura could you fold or roll them up?
Had thought about that but the inner lining goes quite far down, hopefully not long to go till they arrive from bears so I can see if they end up looking like 3 qtr length trousers on me
-
Couple of pickeups - the first was the wabash shorts, indeed they are a little longer but they are growing on me esp as since my my other ones in rotation are just plain. Sized up in these.
I also got the herringbone double gauze, decent texture and the lightweight enough for summer wear. Went with my usual XL.

@futura been looking at that shirt too, very nice.
Definitely worth picking up if you are after something thats easy to throw on, one thing to note though, sleeves are slightly narrow.
-
@futura my size looks to be gone anyway. Thanks for the tip though
-
@futura love those shorts, and really love everything UES does. I think the fit and style is perfect.

UES "BD Oxford Shirt" in both white and indigo light. Many brands offer versions of the classic Oxford shirt, but none get it quite like UES. The fabric, fit, details create the perfect design. I would encourage anyone to add this beautiful and versatile shirt to your wardrobe. Perfectly made for all occasions casual to formal. UES retains that traditional magic and quality we all love and appreciate.
-
@RubyRae Love this but a shade too small I think - need to try on at Rivet and Hide when next in town.
-
@RubyRae Dang, looks sweet
-
Their double honeycomb thermal sweaters are exceptional value for money.
Probably should of gone down a size but it still does the job over a t-shirt or 2
-
@Rustygate37 the texture on that looks super nice.
I just picked up a couple of their single rib cardigans (been waiting like 2 years, now at Withered Fig) for work and LOVE em. great texture on these too, i'll have to snap some pics later.

@WhiskeySandwich id be keen to have a look, cheers
