I made it out and found it great. Those guys are extremely helpful and have a great product, especially for the price. I got a couple MTM shirts but mostly I ordered RTW from them. You should definitely check them out.

Hit their DC trunk show this past Monday - amazing selection of fabrics and patterns, almost overwhelming. I went with a few of their stock special MTMs. Andrew Hudson was very helpful, and took the time to get shirt sizings correct, as well as make recommendations for the collar and placket, and pull together some patterns. Richard Harvie was friendly, and we had a nice conversation. No pressure at all, and overall a great experience. I will definitely be a regular at their DC trunk shows.

Great to hear. This trip I am hoping to get mainly RTW. Will they be pretty helpful with that or are they mainly trying to sell their MTM shirts because I assume they make more money off of them? I am really looking forward to them coming to SF because I've heard nothing but great things about them.

Also, out of curiosity what kind of special are they running on the MTM at their trunk show?

I believe they were offering 10% off their MTM services - not sure if the 10% applies to their RTW as well.

It was my first HH trunk show, they explained that most customers tend towards their MTM services - though I imagine they would be more than happy to help you with RTW options. They also had a selection of ties and pocket squares.

Are they actually selling RTW from the show, or
are they taking orders for shipment? I have about
four of their shirts which I ordered online
which are OK, not in the league of H&K, or T&A.
They were a relative bargain, however.

Most likely taking orders for shipment. Andrew made a point of telling me that they try to travel as light as possible, so I doubt they have a full range of sizes for all of their RTW styles. They did have sample shirts to try on for sizing, however.

Here is a link to the HH website with details of their U.S. visit:

They aren't stopping in my city but I'll be in London for a few weeks this summer. From the sound of it their 3 for £33 each is pretty good, but I was wondering what they charge for MTM. Anyone?

I think if you visit their website you can find pricing on their MTM shirts. If memory serves they run around 110 pounds each.
