    SPIER & MACKAY - Official Affiliate Thread

    I find them to be softer and lighter, and in my experience they drape better compared to only wool and/or linen. They do have a slight sheen to them, which I find attractive for a S/S piece, and it gives them an extra touch of flare. I have read elsewhere that silk in the cloth leaves the...

    Quickest and easiest way is to message them on Instagram. Emailing can range from a day to multiple days but is more successful than trying to call, based on others’ experience.

    I received the Moon mixed brown field coat today from the current sale. Love it. The weight is substantial, and relatively soft, compared to other moon fabrics I have. I wanted something in this fabric but didn’t like the idea of it in the Ulster given the orange fall undertones, so I think this...

    Sorry this took so long. Turns out it is a couple shades lighter than the chocolate VBC suit from a couple years ago in natural light. I still don’t think it is nearly as warm with red tones as the online pictures suggest, however.

    I’ve noticed that in this “new” model that they’ve also stopped making pieces with bolder and more unique fabrics imo, which is what I was drawn to in this company in the first place. Maybe they had mixed results in sales but I look at their releases over the past couple years since and feel...

    I received the Minnis brown chalk stripe DB suit today. It is much darker and cooler of a color than the online pics would suggest. They make it almost seem like a warm medium brown. I would guess it’s a shade lighter than the chocolate flannel VBC suit from two seasons ago. I’ll post some pics...

    I also just received the navy M&E Ulster and was surprised to find the shoulders and chest to be only a half size bigger than my polo coat from two years prior. The waist is not nearly as suppressed and trim compared to the polo coat though. For reference, I am a 42 contemporary but have been...

    I have the black Utah calf penny loafers on the rubber sole and have been really impressed by their construction. I also feel like the last is a good in between on not being too sleek while also not having a casual rounded toe. I have the nautilus loafer in suede, as well, and the suede is great...

    I got a pair of flat front trousers this year and did not notice any difference in cut from last year’s iteration, which I also was hoping for a little more room in the thighs specifically. I’m curious if the changes were exclusive to the high rise versions only 🤔 I really wish they would offer...

    Has anyone received this seasons trousers with the “new” iteration that supposedly has wider thighs and a deeper seat and can comment on the actual perceived fit changes from previous seasons? Thanks!

    I received it yesterday and got a chance to take some pictures today. I have a side-by-side photo next to the Moon guncheck from this season, as well. The HT is a nice spongey fabric, a little heavier than the Moon. The light blue stripes are much more subdued than the online images imo. In low...

    So I asked on Instagram regarding the lack of slim options above size 42 specifically for the blue and Brown Harris Tweed SC they just released and they told me that they are not making slims above 42 and those will be contemporary only. I didn’t ask if this was all SC’s or suits, but if you...

    I just purchased it. I can post some pics when it comes in. But there were no larger slim sizes available, so not sure if it’s selling that fast or they haven’t gotten that part of the shipment in yet 🤔

    Re: Moon buffalo check over shirt I second this. Not as heavy as you would think, and the cuffs are strangely tight, I cannot comfortably leave them buttoned. I would also say it doesn’t seem to run much larger in size than the corresponding SC size imo. If you plan on wearing heavier layers...

    The Watch Appreciation Thread - Part two (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre,

    Yeah this is on C24, as well. I have read a few articles/blog posts too and some said it would be an itemized percentage of the parts that seems to keep the import fees lower, which is what I’m hoping for. It is a limited production from a couple years ago and in the best shape I’ve seen so I...
