    PSA: CottonWorks now sucks

    My experience differed from the original poster in about every way possible. Just received an order that took 2.5 weeks to arrive (with Cottonwork I had been accustomed to 4 or 5 week turnarounds--this is by far the quickest I've received an order.) The pattern matching seems just fine...

    Kent Wang - Affiliate thread

    After consulting Fat Tony, I've decided to keep the placket as is. I think the sleeve length looks perfect to me. All we ask from you is perfection.

    Kent Wang - Affiliate thread

    For those who requested fit pics, here's my polo. Got the large and love the fit (i'm 5'11" 165 lbs., usually get shirts in a medium or small). I love the shirt, the collar, the feel of it, everything. Fit-wise, I only wish the sleeves were a bit longer. Feel like the shirt is trying to show...

    What happened to the Cottonwork thread?

    What kind of material? If it's lighter like a poplin then you're gonna wrinkle a ton, no matter if it's $59 from CW or $400 from Gucci. You're probably right. The dobby shirt wrinkles an insane amount. Is this to be expected from dobby? (I searched but couldn't find an answer to this). The...

    BB Advantage Chino

    Agreed. In fact, I washed my pair in hot water and threw it in the dryer in an attempt to shrink it (my pair fit a little big) and it did not shrink at all.

    What happened to the Cottonwork thread?

    Was just about to post to the cottonwork thread. Guess I'll post here instead: Anyone else notice their cottonwork shirts wrinkle real easily? I have 2 cottonwork shirts, love the fit of both. However they have a tendency to wrinkle. I'll leave in the morning with a crisp, ironed shirt and...

    Dry-cleaners in Adams Morgan

    Sorry to hijack, but does anyone know of a good dry-cleaners around the Hill? Just moved to the Hill a couple months ago. Have used Georgetown Valet (8 and C NE) and I'd recommend it. As for Adams Morgan (lived on Columbia near Biltmore), I'd recommend the Reef and Perry's (the rooftops are...

    Please critique my first suit, Fitzgerald 39R

    I appreciate all the feedback. A little more explanation as to why I went with the 39: when I tried on the 38, the fabric draping from my shoulder did not run down the sleeve in an unbroken line. You could sort of see my shoulder poking out the side (I attached a photo to illustrate the...

    Please critique my first suit, Fitzgerald 39R

    This is my first post, and also my first real suit. Bought a Fitzgerald from Brooks Brothers during their 50% off sale. Tried on a 38R at the store but it was a little small in the shoulders according to the salesperson. Went with a 39R. Now that I have it, it feels a little big overall. They...
