Unfortunately black is just not popular enough for us to carry it in all our styles.

But we do have the double monks in black.

Kent,


Any updates on the new MTM form? I am actually waiting for it before making my next suit order.

Also, any new fabrics and MTM options for the overcoats? I would like to make a double breasted overcoat but I would love to have it fully canvassed with a roped sleeve head.

Many thanks.

PS: Anybody has pictures of a KW double breasted overcoat to share?

I think people (well at least me) are curious about the wholecut in black as an option for black tie.

That's a good idea. If we add another black, it'll be for the wholecut, not any of the other styles. But this will still be a long time away unfortunately.

Aaron will get back to you about this.

Kent! It's your company, why don't YOU provide some insight here.

Folks (myself included) have been begging for the MTM form to be updated for well over a year. I'm sure Aaron is a good dude, but honestly this thread is full of stories of him not getting back to customers.

So maybe just oversee an overhaul to the MTM program/form yourself? I certainly would appreciate it. I've done two MTM suits through you years ago, needing/wanting to do another soon but I'm hoping you update the process soon.

Your customers are clearly asking for it. ;)

(No hate intended here. Just having some fun and trying to hold your feet to the fire.)

Great photos! In the last image, is that a four in hand knot? Also, how do you fold your pocket squares as seen in your pictures?
Thank you!

It is a four in hand.

As for the pocket square, it's a kind of grab, twist and fold method. Then stuff in my pocket.

I would highly endorse black wholecuts. Single monks in black would be wishful thinking, but I think there'd be a good amount of interested parties in the wholecut.
