Engineered Garments Odin Exclusive Work Shirts

October 22, 2013 | By Nick Grant

There’s no way around it: Engineered Garments is simply unfuckwitable. Take their new Lafayette Shirt. It’s a US-made, flat hemmed, polka-dot-printed, soft-as-a-baby’s-butt flannel, with a shawl collar and rear pocket. Why a rear pocket? Who the hell cares, it’s EG. They can do whatever they want.

Whether you call them natural, white or even egg shell, there’s one thing that’s for sure: these Engineered Garments Type 5 Natural Jeans are one hell of a deal. EG’s spin on the classic 5-pocket dungaree is made from red line natural selvedge denim and cut and sewn in NYC.

Like a lot of pieces from Engineered Garments, these Type 5 Red Selvedge Jeans aren’t for everyone. They’ve got tonal stitching instead of gold. A high rise and roomy straight leg instead of low and slim (some fit images here). A cloth patch instead of leather. The list goes on.

The University of Cambridge is one of the most demanding schools in the world. AKA, you gotta be mad smart to attend. Is it a coincidence that these straight leg Cambridge Pants from Engineered Garments, with their beautiful wool construction and tab button waist closure, share the same name? I think not.
