Someone had asked about pale royal blue oxford. I took some pictures when I was trying to mess with my PS camera. Also in this group is the Blue & Purple Cardiff Check and the Blue Triple Bellfield Stripe which just like @variancelog I too experienced irritation in the first two wears.

Complete Noob when it comes to taking pictures so please pardon me, but everyone likes pics


Thank you for sharing. It was me asking about what the pale blue looked like. I ordered it as well earlier this week.

Guys, the suits look great in person! The style detail changes are much better, more modern, and more importantly most likely a better fit with the shoulder slope and button drop.


Red flannel herringbone today. First wear, colour is rich, has a purple/pink undertone, great fabric. @spiermackay , more flannels in the fall !

Got a response to the MTO inquiry. I wish I were in Toronto so I could lay eyes and hands on everything. Would you have any fabrics similar in color?
I know real life vs computer can vary.

That is like a charcoal navy. I'll have to check and get back to you. I know I had some during fall.

Rick, I've noticed that you've moved the button stance lower on the new suits. Can you provide your thoughts on it as I personally think it looks better on most body styles but curious to know why you've made the change.


Also, are you going to be carrying a 38-40S or is that for the MTO program?

The original button stance was a very traditional 2 button stance, in that the button was positioned at the most narrow point on the torso. Though this works well, it does not elongate the torso as most men are looking for. After quite a bit of feedback, we decided to lower it 2 cm. Not a lot, but the result looks dramatic and more modern.

For the MTO, yes, you can order Short sizes.

What are the new OTR pants going to look like and when will they be in stock?

A decent variety. A restock of a lot of the basic navy and grey, with some seasonal offerings. We expect the first group in next week.

The flannel is so amazingly soft and comfortable.

Looks terrific. Is this closer to a cutaway style or still fairly office appropriate?


Looks great to me too. I think the points are just right for the office. Remind me a lot of Italian style spread collars from Canali for instance.

Any linens coming for the summer?

OTR or Custom? Custom yes. OTR, limited selection.

It is a cutaway, but still office appropriate. It's not an extreme spread. I'll see if I can get one on a mannequin soon.

Isn't this the same as the picture I posted but with .5 longer point?
