Yep, I learned that maybe I should specify all of my special requests for every order, even replicas...

I do the same and think its very reasonable.
Not only could you have one order referencing another, which is also referencing another, etc etc, but when dealing with people whos first language may not be English, Ive found its always best to be as clear as possible, zero chance for confusion, and even put numbered points in...

First ever order with Luxire placed on January 8. Just received shipping confirmation.

Ok, I got pictures from my most recent order.
I had a tailor take in the waist by 0.5', not enough, but probably explains some of the abnormalities above the knee.

Anyways, here are the pics, feedback appreciated:

And my recent post:

Spoiler: Old post

I want to order my first pair of jeans, I haven't ordered any swatches, which one would you recommend, I am favoring the 13oz Raw Indigo at the moment. Anyone would go for a different one?
This would be my first pair of jeans in my rotation, if that matters.


Also, I want to order another 3 chinos, I got the copper and the ecru twill currently. Anyone with recommendations on what other fabrics I should choose? Should be versatile.

Anyone with pictures/swatches/comments?
I was looking at Clapey's collection and I am not sure which fabric the Bronze and the Tan is, I dont think they exist anymore.

I will be ordering tons of swatches but havent recently, so need some advice from others.


Also, I will be ordering my first pair of Flannel pants ever.
What adjustments should I make to my measurements? And which Dugdale fabric is recommended?
Fabrics I was contemplating:

Really any help would be appreciated.

Especially, what kind of adjustments do I need to make for jeans and flannel pants respectively?

I have ordered both chino's and jeans/five pockets. You can't just copy the chino measurements to jeans measurements. In my situation, front and back rise for chino's is higher than front and backrise for jeans. After two five pockets from luxire I think I nailed the measurements. First two five pockets are wearable but not ideal.

FWIW I ordered an OCBD about 48 hours ago. The "payment status" has already changed to "paid" (I have been charged for it) and the "fulfillment status" is "unfulfilled".

That is really quick!

Really interested in this fabric. Looks new, but does anyone have any experience with it?

Fwiw, mine is also paid after 24 hr, but they haven't even received my shirts to copy yet, so I don't think it's indicative of them starting work

Yeah, I think I agree with this. Their billing department seems to have gotten faster, but that doesn't always mean they have started work when they charge you. That used to be the case, but in this example there's no way they could have started the work if they haven't received the shirts to copy yet.

it'd be nice if there was a dedicated customer service person in the budget.

But then you would pay more.

Fairly sure there is?

 

[dohare]

pay more for less uncertainty? maybe, haha. but the point is, i said wish.

It would be nice if they had more than one person, since they have posted on here several times that they would improve this aspect of their business. Correspondence is always helpful and courteous, but often the customer must follow up emails to get a response. I suspect there is only one person (Theresa) answering all emails, which is insufficient for the volume or orders and correspondences they receive. I don't envy Theresa having to deal with so much!


Thanks for this. I guess the forum theory about payment status has been wrong!
