    Orders are being fulfilled extremely fast! Ordered two shirts last week on saturday, tomorrow they will be delivered at my door in The Netherlands!

    Especially the oxfords shrunk a lot. For example the university stripes. Out of the box they were perfect. After five washes they were less perfect. A couple of earlier oxfords became unwearable after washing. It would be nice if Luxire could pre-wash these fabrics. It's difficult to adjust...

     I have chino's in this fabric, but would only order this as jeans when ordering it again. Too rough and rigid for dress pants and after each wash it gets a little lighter and the fibres get more life in it. Very casual fabric.

    Difference in bicep- and armhole measurement is in my case more than two inch! No wonder why I never succeed when trying to buy off the rack shirts, if it's not normal that the difference between those is more than one inch.

    You are not measuring at the right way Luxire wants you to measure. Furthermore: With online MTM your first shirt is always crap in my opinion. Use your first crappy shirt to improve measurements and your second shirt fits allright, after nr. 3 and 4 it keeps getting better. After two years of...

     What's the difference between this jersey fabric and pique fabric? This one looks like pique. This shirt looks great!

    What's the remedy to fix knee bags on raw jeans? My two pairs also have them a little bit. Maybe a larger knee measurement and larger cuff measurement?

     I have slimmed down my bicep measurement, armhole, shoulder and chest when ordering shirtpolo's in pique, because the fabric stretches quit a lot.

    Totally agree with this. Lacoste Polo's are very good quality. For example today I am wearing a silver line Lacoste which is five years old. Color is still as when I first bought it. The cheaper Luxire polo fabrics are not like that.maybe the more expensive are, I only own two of the cheaper ones.

    Had that problem only with pique cotton shirts, but those are two years old. I stitched the holes a little tighter. Maybe Luxire solved this nowadays.

    ^ Same issue happened to me two years ago with two Luxire pique shirts, Luxire solved this for me by remaking it. You should just email Luxire to solve it before posting your issues on the interweb.

     Would love to hear what the fix is for the back waistband to pull down, which causes that bulb of fabric under it. When I pull my pants up at the back, it's gone, but after moving around it's back again.

    @luxire: isn't there a possibility to source the 'sky blue oxford' fabric in more colors? Or does the mill which makes the fabric only offer it in sky blue?

    Yes, measured an existing pair but that didn't turn out perfect. This was my second pair of jeans from Luxire. The first one I screwed up myself, didn't account for shrinkage so after a couple of washes it got too short and the backrise was way too high compared to the front rise. Shrinkage in...
