Just to clarify, I am referring to mtailor.com not moderntailor.com, as I think these are two separate companies.
I just placed an order on moderntailor.com, so looking forward to see how the shirt comes out. But while I was watching shark tank videos on youtube, a link for this guy pitching his company back in 2008 aired. Called mtailor.com. I checked out their website and it seems they are still in business.
The concept looks cool, basically the iphone app takes a 360 degree scan of your body and that's it. They then somehow calculate the dimensions for your body and make a tailored shirt. Apparently it's very accurate. On the show, they mentioned only 15% returns (and most were for slight modifications). So that says a lot I assume.
Anyone on here used them and had good results?
Just as a side note, my experience has been that tailors are complete rubbish at properly fitting me. I have no idea why. But what I found funny, was that even the moderntailor.com website, after you give it your height and weight, it plots out the recommended measurements each part of the shirt with a kind of heatmap slider bar. I have measured several of my shirts and come up with what I believe are the best measurements for each part of the shirt. What I found interesting, was the Moderntailor's recommended measurements were almost 95% spot on to what I would have told them to use. All from me just putting in my weight and height. A software did that from two pieces of information, and the resulting shirt would have been better fitting than 100% of the shirts I have received from tailors thus far at the 1st and 2nd fitting. Anyway, I didn't notice that feature on the moderntailor.com website in the past. It's pretty cool, so thought I would share.
