    Men's Hats: A Discussion Thread, Questions, Opinions, Suggestions...

    I haven't found fitted / measured bucket hats before. Even so, the rim is too round, and I need it more oval. It affects the brim.

    Men's Hats: A Discussion Thread, Questions, Opinions, Suggestions...

    I'd like to get my cotton bucket hats fitted better, or a custom hat. Hats never seem to fit me right and that's one reason I don't wear them.

    Second Hand Clothes

    I usually do, because my tastes are very narrow. In my case, makers don't make what I want. At least very rarely. I'm skinny. Wear size 38 jackets. Why would I have the same width lapel as a size 50 jacket?????????????????????? And, guess where the waist is? And, what does taper mean? I...

    Looking for jacket sold by Sid Mashburn last year, previous year...

    I can't remember the maker. It was like Herno but I think a cheaper line. The label was white. https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.iDeFV_fhVBfzfS1DsnoofQAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1 I do have good search skills, but not in this forum. I would...

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    Yeah it would have been nice if the section that pops up when I choose 'send in a sample' they had a link to the hidden page about pre-paid shipping. Or a mention that it exists, so I would go look for the information, or ask. They really could use a product manager for the website.

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    SO.... I paid $110 to ship my sample shirt to Luxire (there was no mention that they have some kind of pre-paid deal for $20). It's in India now. FedEx emails me and says I have to have a Commercial Invoice or they won't deliver. I called (that's no fun) and when I finally got to an...

    ALTERATIONS Tailor in SAN FRANCISCO

    I'm very close to Escobar Bros. at the Embarcadero Center - has anyone tried these guys? Apparently they have another location, too. https://www.yelp.com/biz/escobar-bros-custom-tailors-san-francisco-2

    ALTERATIONS Tailor in SAN FRANCISCO

    SAN FRANCISCO ALTERATIONS TAILOR. This thread now needs a map and an org chart. Who? Where? Is that guy dead? San Francisco County and City. What are the reputations of tailors within San Francisco City Limits? Who can handle significant alterations to jackets within San Francisco City Limits...

    How about narrowing the shoulders? Rotating arms? Replacing liners? Taking in at the waist, under the arms?

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    I am in favor already just from the photos. The one shirt I ordered from Luxire has buttons that would do better on a woman's blouse - in that they add a bit of a frustrating and delaying experience to the opener. All of my other shirts were custom made in Japan and I ordered special buttons...

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    I finally did it. I didn't follow their cuff measurement correctly - center of hole, not inside measurement. Other than that it fits well - better after washing. Collar roll is OK - not sure what's up. Creases horizontally. Also the top above the button seems to have too wide a gap. It's...

    San Francisco Alterations tailor

    Franz is closed. There's a lot of advice for tailors OUTSIDE San Francisco. Who (in 2017) is still good and not extravagantly priced in San Francisco? Like, a walk from BART stations in San Francisco? I was going to Kamta Tailor in Menlo Park, and would have considered Bob Stankovic (my mom...
