    Those pants aren't duck canvas, just regular cotton twill (duck is woven in plain weave ala chambray) used previously in their limited edition selvedge officer chinos.

    AWEsome head to toe as usual. But the killer? The New Balance! Nothing like have a custom ''touch'' some where in ya kit, and the USA tag is pure sweetness!

    See you picked up the new NB's. They are made in Maine - like all good products. Nice style, my friend, nice style.

    The trousers and the shirt are very cool, and the NBs of
    course - but if your wallet shall allow it you might consider
    a proper watch? Takes some saving, I know, but well worth it.

    All the best, F.

    The RRL trousers are perfection- even nicer that the officer's chino. Do you happen to know the model name and where they might be available?

    What color is the mesh on your NB's? Is that "fresh blue" or is there a way to choose colors not listed?

    I've been incorporating that floral Hill Side into every outfit I own for the past few months. Good stuff.

    Mesh is 'nearly navy'
    The RRL chinos I actually got at a RL outlet store out in LI.
    And, indeed, I do need a proper watch.

    A proper watch? I love that Timex! There's nothing wrong with sporting a colorful watch for spring and Mr Forts does a great job of changing up his watch band to complement his 'head to toe.'

    Ok, so is the other main color of the custom NBs black or regular navy? I can't believe the colors are so much more vivid than the previews on their website.

    Love the head to toe. Love the pants along with everything else. Wonderful colorway on the newbies. Thanks James.
