We went silly long on them this time around…..

@Giles You need some data analytics to predict your short or long on which sizes! 

[Giles]

Not sure what you mean….

Yes, we do that.  When I said that we went silly-long, I meant we ordered a lot.  The bell curve of what we have left looks good.

So here's a question from real experience.  We released a green shirt a few years ago, we sold out very quickly.  The next time a green shirt was released, I ordered lots.  Was that the right thing or the wrong thing to do?

The wrong thing.  In this case, everyone who wanted a green shirt had already got one, when we released the next green shirt it did not sell at all.

Predictive analysis can help to some degree, but retail is not a science, it's an art.  If it was science I would be writing this email from my yacht somewhere in the south seas….

Fixed that for you.

[Giles]

Yeah, sorry.  That's a shit load more accurate

And looking for that ever elusive giant trevally  ;)!

I can catch GT's, so whilst I won't stop going after them, large Yellow Fin and Blue Fin Tuna are my current quest…...Oh, and a plethora of other fast and furious species to be caught on fly or lure, Milk Fish, Permit, Dog Tooth Tuna, Cubera Snapper, Rooster Fish, Perch, Zander, Ballan Wrasse, Black Bream, Gilthead Bream.......Yes, I have a list......Not a formal list, but a fluid list which I keep in my brain

[alexdefaro]

Well science or not I'm stoked you guys got this one back 
Got the 3 of them and now I can satisfy my OCD lol..

Beautiful outfit and congrats on the shirt. Nice fit!

[LeDuc_RW]

Man I was bummed to miss this glad I could pick it up this time.  Be awesome with some wear and don’t see this wearing out in the foreseeable future lol.  Sleeves are a bit long but will be perfect on the bike.

Looks great LeDuc. Mine just landed and fits exactly like yours, and I love it. I went with the larger of my in-between sizes.

[Giles]

Very nice…

Thanks!  Ya awesome shirt and material.  If anything a good hot wash maybe get a bit of shrinkage and it’ll fit perfect

Looks awesome! I'm also on the fence.
Just be careful with washing, it can crease and marble easily

Love it with the snap upgrade!

[Eisenherz]
