I know this clogs up inventory but offering sportcoats/suiting in short sizes would be extremely helpful. Its the only reason I cant buy from you.

Couple thoughts on that : (1) for Formosa, we offer pre-orders for all styles that will be stocked in the next season, so you can order any of them in short and without any MTO surcharge; (2) for Eidos, have you tried the Lorenzo cut in R length? They wear much shorter than measurements would suggest, because of the rounded quarters.

Settefili cashmere. B&Tailorstore only place I've seen them. Look like butter. Certainly different animal than Scott&Charters. Might be too precious for your aesthetic.

Hey, another long time lurker here. I'd bought some Drake's Squares from NMWA previously but just made my first clothing purchase! Oddly, I made my order before the sale started with a pair of regular straight Big Johns. They're awesome! Now that the sale's started, I'm going to grab a pair of Butteros.

Unfortunately I don't know my size in most things (I reallllyyyyy want some of those Rota trousers) so I may have to hold off until the sale's over. My wallet can rest easy...for now.


For what it's worth, Rota fits pretty much TTS in the waist.

That's the truth. Here's a comparison shot....the Eidos is listed at 3/4" longer, but looks the same or even shorter. .

Suggestion box —> open

At least on Chrome, I can never stay logged in for very long. When I go and view "cookies and site data" I can see that one nomanwalksalone cookie is set to expire 10 minutes after log in and another after 30 minutes. I'm not sure which one of those handles the log in, but it would be great if the site would allow a much longer log in period.

On a separate note, on Monday starts the seasonal marathon month or running from NYC to Florence to NYC to Paris (maybe Betlin too this time) to find the best stuff for next winter.

I'm very interested to hear from you guys what you want to see more of, what were great finds in FW14, what you weren't so much into. Some makeup ideas you'd like to see with our most flexible makers, etc...

Here's my feeble feedback...
For someone who has a hard time finding clothes that fit properly, what I would like to see at NMWA is for every item you sell online(where applicable) you lay out the sizing measurements immediately. Sometimes I am up for an impulse buy and I do not want to see "We are currently updating the measurements for this item. Please email us etc."...Anyhow, it's not too big of a deal but just my suggestion for the suggestion box....I cannot wait for S/S 2015. I'm interested in cotton and linen gear. Some tropical wool gear too.

Thanks Greg. You are great at what you do. And I appreciate it.

Many thanks!

I havent tried Lorenzo unfortunately. I might have to when next seasons launches come out. Usually a regular wears too long on me but I am still open to trying. I ordered a short in the formosa GMTO so once that hits and it fits perfectly then I will start ordering more.

This. Formosa in short lengths would make my year. I am reluctant to do an MTO without having an opportunity to try a shorter make up that I could return if it simply doesn't fit.

I think Justin is in my hood. Maybe I'll just stalk him around the Bay to try on his MTO short Formosa when it comes in. :)

Something I'd love to see that I've never been able to find anywhere (not sure if it even exists) would be Brunello Cucinelli suits/jackets in long lengths. Although, their prices are usually too steep for me anyway.

More Portuguese Flannel and things along those lines, especially if they can somehow be priced that attractively...great find this year. I also picked up the Rider coat from Monitaly, like it a lot, and would enjoy seeing more things from them. I think they thing I enjoy most about the site is being introduced to new (to me) things that I probably wouldn't seek out myself if you guys weren't putting it together so keep up the good work on that especially on the more casual side of things. On a personal note I wish the Geller stuff came on a little bit larger sizes, but I am not sure thats something you can control. Would also enjoy seeing more unique things like or collaborations with brands with reissues or unique to NMWA items. All in all just keep up the good work.

How about NMWA get Plokhov and Geller back together, and get them to reissue that jacket @Synthese always wears?

Get them to remake Cloak...now that'll be something.

Speaking of Geller, are you guys still carrying him for ss15?

Also, it appears EG is right up your guy's alley, ever thought about adding them to the lineup?
