Long story short: my tailor mistakenly shortened the length of the shirt twice, instead of shortening the length once and then shortening the sleeves. Clearly, it can’t be worn untucked now.
What do you all think, does tucking it in with rolled sleeves work given its weight/thickness? Or should I sadly lay her to rest?
TIA

I bought the green Orslow Slim Fatigues in size 3 last year, then picked up the sand beige pair in size 2 a few weeks ago. The goal of the 2s was an intentionally cleaner fit. Both are very comfortable.
Now that I have the size 2s, I’ve been second guessing the size 3s a bit. Which size do you all think looks better? Would you sell the green 3s and replace them with a size 2?
I’m leaning toward keeping the 3s since green fatigues are naturally meant to have a more relaxed fit. Just curious what you all think.

Hello — I have a 1925 MTO in 8EE (6", double stuffed buck brown, cap toe, celastic). My goal with the build was a more refined Nicks boot with a structured, almond shaped toe, but mine clearly have a much more oval shaped toe.
I understand my leather and toe structure selections added bulk, but even just looking at the outline, the shape looks fundamentally different than stock photos and other 1925 builds I’ve seen, including ones in EE.
For reference - First photo is mine, second is another 1925 in 9.5EE, third is a stock photo of the 1925 Ivan.
Is the celastic toe the main reason for the oval shape, or are there other contributing factors?
I’m considering a 1925 Ivan build and want to understand this better before finalizing it.
Thanks
