    Need advice on 3 MTM sport coats

    I understand much better now. Seeing them side by side, the difference is obvious. That's a disappointment. Better now than later though. I now know what to look for a bit better. In any case, thanks again for the advice. Not what I wanted to hear but the one I obviously needed. I will make...

    Need advice on 3 MTM sport coats

    Thanks man. If I may, what do you mean when you say the silhouette is not very flattering? The style/brand of the coats or the way it has been tailored?

    Need advice on 3 MTM sport coats

    Decided to bring 2 of my jackets to the tailor (returned the third one). What needed to be done was a bit too much and I felt that no matter how many times I would send them back, it would be hard to fix. I am quite happy with the work he did. He fixed the collar gap, cleaned the back a bit...

    Sport Coats versatility (light grey vs slate)

    What would be the best place IYO to buy unstructured tweed jackets? Let's say between 700-1000$.

    Sport Coats versatility (light grey vs slate)

    Interesting. I didn't think about that this way. I always saw flannel as textured. What you say makes a lot of sense though. Maybe my misfortune was a blessing in disguise. ^^ Cheers

    Sport Coats versatility (light grey vs slate)

    I have plenty of navy/brown jackets. My question was more about if it would be easy to pair a light grey jacket with stuff I already own. IMO, it would work with medium flannel but I am not so sure about green/olive/brown cords and moleskin. I never wear jeans. Any thoughts? I am curious. What...

    Sport Coats versatility (light grey vs slate)

    Hello, Just received this camel sport coat (more on the brownish side). Both the color and frabric are amazing. However, it does not fit and I need to return it for an alteration. To my demise, the color is now discontinued and I need to choose another color if I want to keep the same...

    Need advice on 3 MTM sport coats

    @dieworkwear I asked PC before I ordered them and they told me it was not possible which is a shame. Being able to buy with no button holes should be an option. Even if everything on the jackets would have been perfect (minus the sleeves), I would have needed to return it anyway; which is...

    Need advice on 3 MTM sport coats

    Thanks for all the advices. I will ask PC to at least fix the sleeves and send it back to me since I don't feel like spending 250$ just to shorten the sleeves from the shoulders and then bring them to a tailor. Cheers

    Need advice on 3 MTM sport coats

    Yeah my posture is terrible and has been for a while. That's pretty unfortunate. Would you mind explaining what you mean by back blades? Moreover, minus the issues you just mentioned, do you see a problem with the size of the jackets? For example, would you take the jackets in a little or...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Hello, I posted this on the menswear advice forum but I thought I would try my luck here as well. I just received 3 sport coats from PC today. Those are the first jackets I buy from them so the fit is not quite there yet. I have 2 free remake for each jacket but I would like to nail the fit...

    Hello, I just received 3 sport coats from PC today. Those are the first jackets I buy from them so the fit is not quite there yet. I have 2 free remake for each jacket but I would like to nail the fit for the next one if possible. At least, in the areas that can't be fixed by a tailor (ex...

    Can you alter a field jacket?

    I just bought a field jacket for winter which I love. All my winter jackets have been M and they all fit quite well. Since I bought it online, I chose M but unfortunately, it is bigger than expected and fits more like a large (my true size is probably more between a S & and a M). I don't mind...

    sweater fit advice

    Thanks for the fast answer. The fabric is cashmere and the brand is Proper Cloth. If I line it dry, there would be no chance of shrinkage at all right? If that shrink even a little, I think I would end up regretting choosing the small one. As for wearing a hoodie with a sport coat, I know this...

    sweater fit advice

    Hello, I bought 2 sweaters of different sizes. I am planning to exchange the size that doesn't fit for the one that does. My ideal size would probably between both so neither is perfect. I feel the small one fits much better and is the one I should keep but the fact that the medium one is more...

    Is that normal that almost everything is sold out? I think it just went out just this morning. Are they going to replenish or how does that work?

    Help me choose between 2 jackets! (herringbone vs plaid)

    Proper Cloth. They are both BO as of today but should be back in stock sometimes in April.

    Help me choose between 2 jackets! (herringbone vs plaid)

    I am planning to by either one of these jackets. I think that both look great and I was wondering which one was more versatile. So in term of versatility, does one have the edge or is it more or less the same? Thanks

    Proper Cloth - Official Affiliate Thread

    Does anyone have any experience with their waverly jacket line? How are they? How do they compare against other unstructured brands like let's say Boglioli? Appreciate the advise.

    SPIER & MACKAY - Official Affiliate Thread

    Thanks man. I forgot to ask. Is there a big difference between the slim fit/contemporary? What I want to buy is winter jackets so I am going to wear cardigans under it quite often. Is slim big enough?
