    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    What is the sale? It seems the prices are the same but there's a 15% discount on orders over $1,000. I believe last year the threshold was $600 for the 15% discount. Is this the entire sale or any fabrics also on sale? I'd be interested in pant fabrics.

    How soft is the hand of this tropical wool fabric? Anyone have experience with this and Dugdale Fine Worsted? Would like a comparison of the two.

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    I am looking for fabric suggestion for a navy blazer that will get a lot of use. Fabric that works well for the San Francisco bay area. I have a Scabal 15oz but it seems too warm for spring/summer. I think 12-13oz would work well. Another question, would the HS Target Gaberdine work well for...

    Anyone have made jeans by Luxire? What's your experience with jeans construction? How is this 13 oz Luxire selvedge (https://luxire.com/products/luxire-selvedge-raw-midnight-navy-jeans-kato-japan)? Does it hold color long and how does it fade?

    Does anyone have any experience with the Dugdale or VBC mohair fabrics? How does it wear? What's the hand like, etc? I'm particularly interested in feedback on the Dugdale English Mohair (Wool 55%, Mohair 45%, 2-ply Mohair, 10.5 oz)

    It does not look like many of the fabrics on the Sale List are discounted? How does this sale work? Am I correct in assuming that fabric from the list must be selected at the full non-discounted price and then the code applied at checkout to receive the discount? Can you select any fabric that...

    Does Luxire plan to have any Black Friday sale this year or is their business so strong anyway that they don't need to goose any further sales?

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    Anyone had a shirt jacket made by Luxire? Will you order another one? I'm thinking of getting a jacket made with their vintage ecru linen (13oz) and not sure if I should get a shirt jacket or a traditional structured jacket. Use will be mostly casual.
