This is awesome. I still really need to do this at some point, but I have a DB project currently in the works so this is on the back burner. Looks really great though; glad to see people putting shots up of the hopsack suit.

Go to the preorder items section when the Factory finds are launched. Fill out the fields with your size and style. Done.

I'm getting a custom order charcoal flannel suit in the "Barrett" double-breasted shape with a couple of small tweaks that I plan to wear at my upcoming wedding. It's just been ordered, so it'll be a bit, but I promise photos will be forthcoming...

I think cuffs should correlate somewhat with your height, same as tie width might be somewhat relative to your own width...

6 foot and above can go 2" or even 2.5" if you're a giant.

Under 6 foot go to 1.75" or 1.5".

FYI mine above are 2".

It looks as if the camel SC might be turning into a sleeper hit. I like it a lot, although I don't see the style very often in England. There are guys with severe tastes over on MC who will disparage the idea of a camel SC. But I'm glad we are less fearful here. It has a classic look, and as Mike says, the point is to do it right.

I'm now thinking, though, that it may be a bit warm for Houston and that unlined donegal would be more climate appropriate.

I still like 2" cuffs, even though I'm 5'10". I don't think it looks silly large.

Yeah honestly I wouldn't see you get more than a few days' use of them every year, unless you're extremely cold-blooded.
