You can just take it down from a 4 to a 3 button ( I did this with one and it worked fine), provided you're okay with a 3 button cuff. +1 on the button stance. Aside from that great bang for your buck.

Are the Rugby's the same price ? I was under the impression they were significantly more expensive.

Yea their button stance ruin their suits

I found 'Kevin Mac Trench', which is a singlebreasted mac on navy and camel colour, on a Korean Club monaco store but cannot find it on US web store. Does American or Canadian stores have it too?

any reviews of the CM suiting? need a quick/cheap throw around suit and wondering if it fits the bill. how slim is it?
deciding between CM or Rugby i guess

I have a few, again button stance is high on a true 3, but works good for me on the 3 roll 2, quality is not bad for sale price.

They have different sizes for some suits/sc's depending on the jacket type, I have a casual suit in xs/28 which fits true, a sc which is just marked a 36 and fits in-between a true 34r and 36r, about an inch long on me but still works ok as sc with open/rolled cuffs, and a formal suit which is a 36s and fits me pretty good.

Jackets are overall kinda short and pretty slim, suppossedly ala thom browne; pants run a bit big in the waist and rise.

No, what I saw had adjustable wrist buckles.

I've become a fan of their slim oxfords, I have 8 (multiples in some colours) and counting. Great staples considering my daily 'uniform' is dark denim and an oxford.

I know this is bad form, but I've got some CM items I'm trying to sell if anyone here is interested. See sig.

Looks like the davis chino is on sale for $49 bucks. I'll head over to Eaton's to see if it's $49 as well in store

Correct sir. I just went in. I swear between J crew, CM and BR I can't tell the difference that much with their clothing.. Especially CM and J crew

So guessing they are on sale the two colors? If so I will go in and take a look. Wondering is the blue is too much of a summer color

It looks like the Davis chinos are only on sale on the Canadian website but not the US.

Well, those pants in general are a bit too summer, fall, to be worn right now.
