They basically copied all of Steven Alan's fall plaid offerings.

I have one of their oxfords (which is for sale in B&S, by the way) and it's really nice. The fabric is substantial and the cut is slim but short. The only reason I'm not keeping mine is that I've made the jump into MTM shirts. That being said, I'd still highly recommend their offerings.

I understand that they have an off-the-peg service as well as a made-to-measure and bespoke service. The difference between each iteration is not much more than a hundred dollars; I'm beginning to save up for my first bespoke suit. These guys seem like what I'm looking for-- local, young, and less than a grand. Bespoke is about a thousand dollars here; does anyone have any reason to think this a terrible idea to pursue?

Depends on how good they are. I had a bespoke suit made in Vietnam to my specs and couldnt be happier with the results. Just see their work beforehand and do your homework

And behold -- this is part of my homework! They seem a little obscure-- they don't have much of a web presence, anyways, so it's hard to find info on them or how they do. Mostly, like... why drop 550$ at J. Crew and then another hundred bucks on alterations when you can drop 850$ on made-to-measure and have a better suit than the former? I haven't had much luck with thrifting, probably courtesy of my small size.

Stel's in Boston carries their suits, chinos and shirts. They are one of the most promising u and coming clothing companies, in my opinion.

The OEN online shop opened last week and we are currently carrying a few pieces from Brooklyn Tailors for those interested, more of a selection to come in for Fall/Winter 2012.

I do believe we are the only stockists in the UK : www.shop.the189.com
