Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

Can Luxire make mandarin collar shirts? Note that mandarin collars are distinct from band collars, as mandarins have a split in the fabric in the middle.

If they think their current market presence is justified then they are within their right and they have data I don’t have. But it all started with my own perceived value of the product/service compared to past precedent and competition in the marketplace for comparable goods. I don’t want to pay significantly higher if I can get it elsewhere for much less. But I’d still like to give Luxire my business because they’ve generated goodwill. I’d rather communicate this to them than quietly disappear. and an email is much more easily ignored

I find this kind of post annoying on multiple levels. do you really think they don’t know what their competitors are charging? You are either naive or disingenuous to state that you’re “just trying to be helpful” to point this out to them. To me it just looks like you are fishing for a price decrease.

Then the question of how much does the added value of Luxire’s services compare to your alternatives is purely a subjective comparison. I honestly don’t care that you personally find that the higher price of Monti or Albini fabric exceeds the value of Luxire’s fit, customization, and other services. There is no way to objectively measure this and no two people will agree exactly on where this line falls.

1. I’ve already asked in a previous comment what equivalent monti or Brembana fabrics would be and I’m cool with alternatives
2. Fashion is a 1 trillion+ annual global market. I try to source my clothing with quality and ethical production. But welcome to competition of global capitalism. Like it or hate it, there are competitors and to not acknowledge that is to ignore the realities. I know of a few tailors in Thailand and Vietnam I can email and have house fabric shirts made to measure for 35-40. But I don’t do that because I find value in luxire’s quality assurances and service

i understand that you respect what Luxire is capable of. Just don’t lose sight of the bigger picture of the global market Luxire competes in and we shop in. We can agree to disagree on our own consumer habits.

let’s just end this convo on agreeing to disagree

thanks

Well I agree. I can’t afford new clothes, so I fully understand looking at price and value. I buy your guys used stuff on eBay.

Merry Christmas everyone,

Quick question. Black Friday orders were promised to be delivered before Christmas again, similar to last year right? I am not complaining, I would rather Luxire take their time with completing orders, just trying to recall. Thanks!

They were aiming to ship everything by Christmas. Later we have learned that at least the cav twill fabrics are delayed from Italy. Some has already recieved their orders. I guess it comes down fabrics and supplying production details and some luck.

My two pairs of trousers (EThomas cavalry twills) ordered on BF are on their way to me. I was hoping for delivery before Christmas but I'm not complaining - I presume Luxire had tons of orders during the BF sale so this waiting time is still impressive.

[norMD]

Shirt jacket just made in the Guiseppe Grey Birdseye Wool

One of the trousers ordered during the BF sale made of cavalry twill wool (stone) from EThomas, straight out of the box:

I'm stunned with the drape of this fabric, because it feels lightweight and I wouldn't say it's 14oz heavy. When it comes to color of the fabric it's rather on the warmer side of the scale.
