The same day I made my earlier review here in this thread, I received a feedback survey from ModernTailor along with a $10 off gift code for a future service. Coincidence or perhaps they survey the scene here? Either way, it was a pleasant surprise and they certainly asked all the right questions. With the $10 credit, I was happy to give them another go and I'm glad they've greatly expanded the fabrics and customizations, esp the buttons. If it weren't for their customer service I probably wouldn't have bothered with another order. Bravo for them. Order should be arriving any day now so I'll post another assessment and pics.

Has anyone ever seen their "chat online" actually online? Let me know if I am doing something wrong.

. If you wish it may be more economical for you to ship to another European member, if someone wants it, and let the swathes in the US rotate here.

Regards.

Yes, if there is European interest this could be more economical. Anyone?

I received the swatch book and will pass it along to the next in line, just send me a PM. Funny thing is, the swatches for the shirts I received this past Tuesday were not in the book.

They have some fabrics on sale for very nice prices - placing an order right now. I own the pink stiped cotton/linen, the orange heringbone and one of the blue stiped ones (P30) and recommend them all. The linen first, the blue stipe next and the orange herringbone was just a little shiny but seems nice (too new to comment on durability).

fwi - The swatch book costs $25 - if ordered with a shirt. It is an "add on" at the end of the order process.

And they do have quite a few fabrics/colors on sale. That was enough for me to order a shirt... with my $5 off it came to $36... including shipping from China.

How cool is that?

I've been happy and ordered a few shirts. Success on all my shirts.

I've been happy with them as well. I would like them to offer more customization (size of collars and cuffs, for example), but their shirts are a great value.

How long has the delivery time been to the US for those who have ordered a shirt from moderntailor recently?
