    SPIER & MACKAY - Official Affiliate Thread

    I'm interested in a sportscoat in the Neapolitan cut. I'm 5'5" 138 lb. They only have it available on the website on sizes 34S (Slim) and 36S (Contenporary), I suspect I am actually a 36S Slim, or should I be thinking aobut the other sizes?

    MTM Shirt Fit

    Possibly cheapest option + time savings + customization. 1) I am 5’5” 140 lbs, it’s almost impossible to find something RTW that fits. 2) I live in DC. Tailors are expensive and it takes additional time buying RTW and then having to deal with a tailor. If I get correct size in MTM I can just...

    MTM Shirt Fit

    thanks for your help! So we are talking about a ~1 cm adjustment for the sleeve length? what guideline for cuff size do you recommend? I think the back doesn't look clean, but if i take too much in at the waist then it'd be a little bit uncomfortable when I sit, and also if I gain any weight...

    MTM Shirt Fit / Remake

    Hello, I got an MTM from one of the brands typically recommended here, and unfortunately the shirt came out too small. Could you guys help me out deciding what modifications I should ask them to make? The first photo is with the sleeves unbuttoned. My plan is to eventually (after nailing down...

    John Lobb Appreciation Thread

    Those look beautiful! I just think it's more difficult to pair shoes that look like that with the rest of your clothes... that being said, I checked out some John Lobb shoes at a store yesterday, and it seemed that the claret ones were darker in person, so I might end up getting it in claret....

    John Lobb Appreciation Thread

    Thanks for the response, I really appreciate it. I actually like the plum a bit better in those photos, since the claret one seems kind of red. Or maybe it's just the AT-AT grabbing my attention? :p I have another question. If I live in the USA and would like to get an MTO, is Skoaktiebolaget...

    John Lobb Appreciation Thread

    Hello, I'm planning to get an MTO later this month and wanted to hear your recommendations since this is my first time getting a pair of JL shoes. I'm getting the Jermyn III in either Plum Museum or Claret, but I'm still undecided. What would you guys recommend between those two? are they even...
