Fair enough, I can understand that. Do you know for a fact though that a KW suit made with one of the name brand luxury fabrics does not have a fabric label? Because in stitches' new Tiberias suit (same manufacturer as KW uses) has a Loro Piana label inside, but my Tiberias suit, made with a basic fabric, has no label at all.

I sent Minnis fresco fabric to the factory that came with some Minnis labels. The suit did not end up with the labels.

Has anyone had a suit made in AR0021? Here's a link for the swatch book pic: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8086/8484561837_8d7d6889b8_o.jpg. Left side.

This looks like a pick-and-pick, no? I'd love to see some shots of a suit in this fabric.
I would like to see this too. It looks like nice fabric. I'd also consider it for a future suit. The question is, is it worth an extra $70 over TR7121, in the rightmost column here?

I'm buying a light blue suit from KW soon - trying on the sample charcoal this weekend.

The name brand mills aren't better quality than the Basic collection. Basic is limited in the styles and colors, while the other mills have more variety.

I take it that KW doesn't offer any in-person measuring in Austin...
Correct. I think almost every person in this thread has done their order over the internet.

Gentlemen,

I've been MIA since my wedding. I apologize. Click the link below to see some photos of my KW MTM worn at my wedding. Tie and square are Sam Hober. Shirt is Distante bespoke and shoes are Alden 901's. Pearl cufflinks are KW as well.

Enjoy!

Being married leaves less money for suits and shoes. :( I just have to save longer.
