Anyone know if Aaron is on vacation/off? I have ordered something two weeks ago and I have not heard back. Obviously no problem to take some time off, just wanted to ask.

Back on. Have I replied to you? If not please send a message.

Hi Aaron, I put in an order for a custom suit (with the customization form on the website).

I'm just waiting for an email on your end/your team's end on how to proceed.

In the meantime, if you happen to see this.

Can you let me know what measurements I can obtain from my tailor that could help with the suit process? I can pay to have my tailor measure me and send in all the needed measurements to expedite the process.

Hello!

The options form is not an order form. We could make that clearer.

But if you filled out the form just yesterday, I think I know who you are, and am now sending you an email.

Thanks for the reply.

Just sent you an updated email with trial suit pics.

I think the 36R may be too snug (chest and potential for shoulders being snug in a couple of months) and the 30W trousers as well.

I guess in this case, would it be possible for me to return the trial suit for a refund? Then order a trial suit in 38R and 32 W trousers?

Do you guys think I should return the 36R trial suit and the the 30 W trousers? Then place another order for a 38R and 32 W?

Just got a cardigan delivered but it is quite itchy on my skin. Was it the same for you guys and does it completely go away after few washes?

No, it doesn't change much after washes.

@Kent Wang I see the black polo in L is due to restock next week. Is that accurate? I need to buy within the next month before a trip and will have to decide to settle for a lesser option before too long.

 

[LearnasIgo]

Out of curiosity has anyone who has ordered recently had an issue with the final make of their made to measure to suit?

My order was incorrect (2 button ordered, received 1 button suit) and the trousers are significantly smaller than the trial ones I tried (requested adjustments for increases in the hips, seat, and thighs). Trousers cling to my glutes/thighs instead of draping over them. Final trousers bisect the rear as well

I'm assuming the KW team sent the instructions and measurements over, but was there a miscommunication at the factory/ with the maker?

@LearnasIgo This is unusual. I have emailed you directly to resolve these issues.

Haven't quite gotten "into" pocket squares but discovered KW's offerings, love the ethos and trying to keep a balanced budget...

Read the posts on silk vs wool silk, but is there a rule of thumb for size? ex. go for the larger size if all silk, or larger size if jacket size >=EU50?


(Also: love the cat designs.... restock on the burgundy? or any more to come?)

Thanks!

Some silk squares have a slippery/wet texture, and may be more prone to falling down on their own. Wool silk tend to be less susceptible to that. But all in, I think 16 inch squares are more likely to stay in place versus 12/30cm, but I don't get too hung up on this - it isn't like I won't buy a 12 inch square due to its size

We'll restock the cat burgundy around August 30.

Just get the 13" silk pocket squares. They're the cheapest version and are perfectly good. The other versions are for esoteric menswear nerds.

@Kent Wang are you planning on rolling out the 3XL sizing in any of other polo colors? or will it only be available in the light blue?
