Looking forward to when these come available. Among other things, the trousers look as though they could be used for a somewhat dressier Brunello Morocco look from Specter. By the way Dan, perhaps you should consider doing the Brunello chinos or jacket at some point!

I'd recommend adding a hip measurement to the size chart as well...if the trousers are too tight in this area you can end up with "elephant ears" pockets. This has been the only problem I've had with ordering trousers online (you can take the waist in if you need a larger size).
I assume that these will have the exact same measurement ratios as the original Ted Baker pants?

These will be available in about an hour from the time of posting. I thought I'd make a couple of sizing comments and provide some close up images. In regards to sizing, they have come in slim, probably a little slimmer than I intended, with that may come some issues, so please do compare the specs in the charts with you best fitting trousers. My best advice would be size up if in doubt and factor in that you may require a little tailoring. Being essentially my first attempt at trousers, I won't know how we've done on sizing until some feedback comes in... All that being said, I'm extremely happy with the overall screen accuracy, the colour in particular is fantastic, a near exact match to the sample matched by Blair (Meesta Bawnd) hats off to my manufacturer for nailing the colour and my many thanks to Blair. The colour sample being matched is the fabric square next to the back pocket.... the back pocket is also stitched closed with temporary stitching that will need to be opened up not unlike a suit.
The cardigan will also be back in stock in around an hour.
Hi Daniel, I just put in my order. I'm usually between a 30" and 31" so I went with a 32"
and figure I can have them taken in a bit if needed. But I want them to have a little room because I believe that on screen they appear to be a bit relaxed in the legs. Definitely not like the trousers in SkyFall.

Ordered. I went for a 36 just to be in the safe side. I have calves like Robocop so if I can't get into them, expect to see them in sale here at a future date!
Just received them, so in order to get a review and size discussion up quickly I will try to post a vlog asap.
Good man!
My name has changed! I’m no longer dufus......now I’m DB6

a vlog will be well helpful as I'm pretty similar to Mantis and it always works for me.
Didn't realise how light these look , on screen to me and on stills they look a dark brown
All those chaps who have ordered from Dan before, what is the usual speed of the delivery and for UK customers, should I expect a hefty customs charge?
Cheers

pretty good roughly about 2 weeks , depends the QOS cardigan was delivered to me and then a postoffice charge card followed 2 days after saying they won't deliver unless I pay it.
needless say I haven't :007)
Gents, vlog will be up this evening....just as a heads up I am a 31 waist and Dan sent me a 30 and a 32. The 32 fit me PERFECTLY, the 30 does not....so the size up thing is very real. Also, the pants are darker in person, as they should be. Color is spot on.

You got the card afterwards? Oh well.done. I've never had it afterwards. Clearly a **** up somewhere. Well done. Hoping they (trousers/cardy) arrive in time for my birthday at the end of the month and we don't have a freak heatwave!

Except you need to tailor it to make it look SA.

So many great pieces still to collect.
Speaking only for myself Dan, I would love to see you produce the CR 'Ocean Club' shirt and trousers too.
“That’s not the sort of thing that looks good on a form."
Dan, do the trousers come finished? If so is there fabric to lengthen the legs if needed?

Hip measurements are a very good idea.

Will see if he advises to size up.
You could measure your most comfortable trousers and compare it to the measurements Dan has provided.
I did and these trousers actually for me, come in ever so slightly larger. So I've gone with my regular size.
