I'm still waffling on a Niche flower shirt.

Can greg or owners of the ts(s) shirts comment on what warrants the price premium over other shirts? Thanks

It's a combination of :
• amazing quality fabrics - hard to translate in pictures
• high quality trimmings (mother of pearl buttons, tone-on-tone stitching with changing stitch colors for color-blocked shirts for example)
Japan
• design and production of their own custom fabrics - almost all ts(s) uses custom fabrics
• small batch, quality manufacturing - all in Japan
• import and duties from Japan
• transposing to the USA a product made for the Japanese retail economic model

I would say that the quality of the fabrics, details and trimmings rival those of really expensive dress shirts - but are not usually seen in the casual shirt world, hence the disconnect between our perception of value between the two.

Thanks to Kyle for the sizing help with the Malko boot - it's perfect


who knew there was such a thing as a 'beanie bag'

That shade of brown for the Malkos is so underrated. Nice pick

Time I open the suggestion box for the NY trunk show.

We are cooking up a couple of cool MTO events and I'd like to have a little cocktail hour on Saturday around 6p or so. We'll have some final sale racks and will be selling a few samples as well.


What would you guys like to see there? What would make that trip to the trunk show worthwhile?

A show of hands of who is likely to make it would be also nice

strongly considered the taupe until I remembered a casual wingtip shoe same color
these should be pretty versatile

I'm working on heading up for the trunk show.

Agreed.

For the Niche flower shirts, the description says regular fit, but the measurements seem rather small. 15.75 / US 40 / EU 50 should go with XL?

Big thank you to Greg and Kyle. Fit recommendations were spot on and the Formosa Birdseye is all kinds of awesome! Can't wait to get it to the tailor.

Doesn't even need jacket sleeve or trouser waist alterations. Just hem the pants, sew the sleeve buttons and nip the waist a tiny bit. I'm super duper stoked!
