I've returned several items and only had an issue getting something across the border once (If anybody would like to purchase a new contemporary fit navy bengal stripe shirt in 15.5 that had sleeves accidentally cut at 34" instead of 34.5" please let me know). I honestly cannot remember right now whether you get a refund or store credit but I believe it's the former + $15 store credit to cover for shipping.

Just received several items today: Madras shirt (cannot tell you how much i regret not buying these sooner), two of the new lowered button shirts (a light blue chambray and a light blue hairline stripe), and a model 2 navy suit. Everything fits as specified online, and looks and feels so great in person. I've owned a Model 2 sportcoat for a couple months now and loved the fit, and needing a new suit for some upcoming interviews I purchased the navy. It's fantastic. I previously owned the model 1 core navy and gray suits and as great a value as those were, this is a definite step up. Can't remember if the fabric is improved on this version but nonetheless it's quite nice, IMO better than a VBC 110s navy fabric I have for a SuitSupply suit.

Now I'm really looking forward to the full canvas option whenever it gets released!

Got any fit pics of the chambray?

I also ordered the Model 2 Navy suit. I have SuitSupply Napoli suits in both Reda and VBC 110. I honestly can't tell the difference in fabric. Overall, the fit and silhouette of the Model 2 suit is better than the Napoli.

What is the reason you are returning your current suit?

I got a 42 and a 40 to see which one fits better. The 40 fits better so I'm returning the 42.

I am serious about the cat shirt question. Can it be done?

Nah not for another several days, super busy at the moment and trying my best to avoid SF but failing hard.

What are the shoulders like on the Model 2 suit? Is the padding light?

Yeah, a lot less than SS's Napoli. I would follow up with Rick to see how much padding is in there.

I guess no labor day sales huh?

My MTM suit i've posted a few times. Going forward for my next suit, I would move the button down about an inch.

Maybe for Canadian Thanksgiving Day, which is in mid-October, I believe...

PM sent.

Light padding. Lighter than the Napoli. The Model 2 for FW15 are slightly thinner than SS15.

Same as the current sales/markdowns running. And for those in the states, the dollar itself is at a near 33% advantage. Sales everyday for you guys. haha.

We don't have anything set yet. But keep an eye out.

@spiermackay is the canvassing soft or is it highly stuctured?

 

[doodledoc]

@spiermackay , could you provide real world pics of the grey windowpane, light brown glen check, and the blue self check suits?

It's fairly soft, but still has good structure and drape.

I'll try to get these before end of the work day today.
