    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    I'll confess that I don't always take my own advice in this matter, but when one is aware that a button is coming loose it seems sensible to take the button off and to then sew it back on so that a loose button does not become a lost button!

    I love the White Green Dress Stripes. It is the only one on the list that I own, but it is my favorite shirt. When I got it I was not in the habit of wearing green shirts. I'd had only one before, years ago: a sage-colored solid, quite unlike this. Now I am interested in expanding my green shirt...

    This can also be a result of sleeves being too short. I like my sleeves to be long enough that they would be sloppy over my hands when my hands were down at my sides if the cuffs were not tight enough to not slide down from my wrists. This way the sleeves are long enough to have no elbow...

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    I have a flannel shirt from the Scottish Green Blue Tartan. If I had it to do over again I would have requested black buttons, which, I think, would have harmonized with the dark cloth better. So, for your dark flannel I recommend black or maybe wood. Also: my flannel shrank considerably in...

    I would be very attracted by this at a sufficient discount. As suggested elsewhere, it would make sense to let the customer specify "Nothing especially warm" or "Only especially warm fabrics" or "whatever you have". Luxire, if you wonder about the level of interest, consider this a positive...

    homespun: Was it indeed a problem? Were you charged any fee or tax? When my $59 shirt was listed as … whatever I said…about three times that…I was not charged an fee or tax, but I thought it was curious. Further, is ANYone in the U.S. experiencing extra fees or taxes?

    1) How does this fit into the importation fee conversation: I got a Luxire shirt last week shipped on 3/13 to the United States; delivered 3/17; no added fees. But the most interesting part: the value of the USD$59.00 shirt was listed in the documentation as USD$189.99!! Any idea what this is...

    I was especially interested in the pocket design. I hadn't decided whether there might be circumstances in which I'd be grateful for such a welcoming pen-receptical, and I wish the photo was still there to ponder.

    A couple of weeks ago I received a shirt in the Scottish Green Blue Tartan Flannel. I LOVE the cloth. It's very soft, very comfortable. It's like a gentle hug. Really. It is thick-ish and warm, but not so heavy as to be almost a jacket; there is no hint of outergarment about this fabric...

    Thanks Xtra. I agree with you about the value of swatches. When I recommend Luxire to people, I even make a point of advising them to order a bunch of swatches with their first shirt so that they don't have to pay separate shipping for swatches. But my color-match yammering has distracted from...

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    Greetings! I'm a new poster, but I have been avidly reading this Luxire thread since around the first of this year, and I do have a couple of Luxire shirts. Is it appropriate for me to mention here that I posted this fit question in another thread? It is about a Luxire shirt, so it may be of...

    Introduce yourself.

    Hello. I've been reading since around the first of the year. My main interest here is MTM shirts. Through my whole life—from super scrawny days to the present when I could stand to lose 20 pounds—I have never been able to find OTR shirts that even began to fit. Any shirt that more-or-less fit my...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Here's my first post. I've been reading avidly for about 9 months, but I finally have something that calls for posting. I'll be grateful for any suggestions about fit revision for this blue shirt which was made by Luxire. (The white one—from Modern Tailor—is included just for collar...
