Grabbed a pair of Dark Stantons a few minutes ago and didn't see a thread started yet for this brand.
I've heard a lot of good things about RT and am also tempted to add the murdered out jacket to my order (waiting on some sizing info). Anyone have experiences with RT?

No, but I eyeballed their WS for months and months but never pulled the trigger so I'm curious to hear feedback as well.

Nothing yet but not because I don't want any of it. Their work shirts are likely my favorite. The IxI is so good as well as the IxI work trousers.

Went ahead and ordered the Supply Jacket - have to wait a bit for the size I need to ship but the pair of Stantons are on their way. Excited to get them - Blue Owl is good people. Will send them back once I confirm fit and they'll hem for free.

Got my Dark Stantons in over the weekend and love 'em - really digging this brand. The color of the indigo warp is exactly what I was hoping for - a super deep blue but not bordering black and the black hardware is very nice. I'm going to have to put some serious time into wearing 'em so I can see some of those contrast fades.
I returned them this morning for hemming (free service with BWS) and will get some pics together when they're back.

Good for you getting this. RT has such a good overall look to all their stuff. Their WS's are damn perfect looking except for their scoops

No it just looks a bit strange. It need some more depth to the scoop or more of a point to it. The way they chose makes me think someone had a major brain fart or got stoned

Wearing the jacket today with G Royal Indigos...not a lot of contrast between the two but definitely some deep coloring happening on me today. It's funny trying to break this jacket in in an office setting.

I really like most of the stuff Rogue puts out, but there sizing is too small. Even some of the Japanese brands offer sizes bigger than these guys make. I guess it saves me money in the long run.

hmmm...check the size charts, they're not petite lovers. blue owl lists their jeans as accommodating up to a 41" waist. their XL cut cover a 47" chest but they stop there.

It's funny trying to break this jacket in in an office setting. I also have this jacket and absolutely love it. I've been wearing it almost every day for a month. Sulphur smell was so strong at the beginning but now it's hardly noticeable, except if I put my nose on the fabric.

Most XXLs are closer to 50" chest, 20" shoulders which is where I'm at.

I wore it around a bit at home the first night I got it with the tee I sleep in and days later that tee still has the smell. Wearing it for the day, it's less noticeable but every so often I catch a wiff...stanky.

I can usually find jeans with a 34"waist, but shirts are a different issue. I'ts amazing to me how much stuff is made here in the states, but the sizing is geared for smaller folks. Of course I'm talking about stuff that actually looks good, and not stuff you can buy in huge sizes at all the usual suspects.

Of course I'm talking about stuff that actually looks good, and not stuff you can buy in huge sizes at all the usual suspects. Agreed. But you should consider yourself to be lucky because I live in France and the average french people are definitely smaller than people from your country, which is why French brands make small stuff, and I've always had to buy american brands because they offered larger sizes, like Levi's for instance. But still it can be tough, because big sizes are the ones that run out of stock more often. The most annoying is when I see only even sizes above 34, or a XXL being way much bigger than the XL, when there's only a small difference between L and XL.

I remember when we were on the Gustin board and we had all these discussions about how badly we wanted a work shirt from Gustin, and we discussed all the details, that was fun ! Scott had the good idea to open that Dropbox folder so everyone could contribute by sharing pics, and I remember putting a picture of this Rogue Territory Utility Work Shirt in it. It was love at first sight. I know it's weird to talk like that about a shirt but that's what I felt. So why I haven't bought it ? Well, that beauty was $225 ! Never spent more than €75 on a shirt, so how could I justify that price ? So I waited patiently till Gustin offered their take on the work shirt and hoped for a $100 pricepoint. But last summer things went wrong with Gustin QC and I was so dissapointed I thought I was done with that brand. I still waited out of curiosity and at the end of august, the Gustin WS was here. Not really excited by the pics, the fabrics, the shipping date and all the uncertainty about the fit and the possible once again lack of QC. So I thought "Well, why not drop an extra $90 and get that shirt I'm in love with, plus I can have it now !" So I went to the Rogue Territory web site but guess what ? That shirt was long sold out ! But I've made my research and learned that a new batch was about to drop on september 2nd ! Oh yeah !!! On that day I connected on the Rogue Territory web site as soon as I got up and ordered the shirt. Good thing I did that because a couple hours later my size was already sold out !!! Crazy. The Utility Work Shirt is absolutely gorgeous, made of 10 oz sanforized raw japanese selvedge denim, with a light gold contrast stitching, two chest pockets with a place for a pen, reinforced elbows, and cat-eye buttons. I wear an XL and the fit is just perfect. Not too loose, not too tight. This is a very versatile garment, it can be used as a shirt, an overshirt or a light jacket. In a nutshell I'm very happy with that shirt and it's definitely worth the price. I love it so much I ordered another work shirt from Rogue Territory, the 12,5oz ISC, and I can't wait to wear it.

RGT makes exceptionally appealing pieces that almost always catches my eye. They don't do anything that is overly crazy but yet they know how to do it just right
