I apologize for not responding to this sooner, I was at the tailor getting the cuffs of a shirt altered and the sides/sleeves taken in for $20 and $40 respectively. I will get the shirt back in a week and post fit pics. Same thing as above, except you have to watch everyone you love experience it with you. That's literally the worst fate I can imagine. Foo, I hope all this is helping.

Well, I've already learned of a confirmed error: wrong lining color. Sigh. This seems to be a consistent issue. Thankfully, it is marginal. They're going to ship now and if I don't like the lining, they'll change it later.

No. That would have not been marginal for me.

The lining will look different in different lights anyway.

Yes, but they have a tendency to do string of orders using the same color lining. If they're going to ignore my requests, I'd rather them all be random.

This lining will be green--I can only hope it will be a dark, bottle green as opposed to a light mossy green.

I was struggling to imagine a lining that I would find objectionable, but that's definitely one example.

It works well with a tan tweed.

At the rate my MBT is going, that might be a real possibility on my next commission.

If it's the same green they used for Bill's grey suit, you're in luck. Looks awesome - it even convinced me to use green for the grey suit I'm wearing today.

I don't know which green it is--it's whatever green Mariano put in his exact same suit. Apparently, they default to that combo.

I've never chosen a lining other than asking for Bemberg or ermazine.

So, I comprehend not your anguish.
