Hey All,

I recently heard independently from three separate sales reps on multiple platforms that Indochino is phasing out the use of Bemberg Linings. I imagine this is due to cost. I think this is disappointing and signals a phase shift for Indochino in trying to cut costs and become an everyman's suit. Even J-Crew uses Bemberg Linings. What do you think ?

Who cares about Indochino. Bring on the Tom Ford and Brioni.

Does Indochino make suits?

That's a pretty generous descriptor of its garments.

I beg the poll's pardon but you have not left an option to say it never had any quality to lose.

You get what you pay for, usually. And in Indochino's case you get less.

I was thinking about getting a suit from Indochino cause I want a burgundy suit and Spier & Mackay doesn't offer one, but I guess... I'll just keep hoping SM sees the light and brings a burgundy suit instead of going with Indochino.
