@luxire if i want to make adjustments to a previous order's measurements for a future order, is the best way to describe them in half-measurements (i.e. pants folded along the crease and using a tape measure where a 1/2" measured flat would really reduce the leg circumference by 1"...)?

Basically I want to take about 1" of fabric out of the rear thigh (from seat to knee)...I can upload pictures in a couple days if that would help

How does one go about ordering swatches from Luxire? I've not seen any options on the website.

Find “extra service” and then just add the amount you want(1$ per swatch)

Got it! I don't think I'd ever have found it without asking. Do you just then include the names of the swatches you want in the notes?

just send a mail following your confirmation mail and copy in all the links of the fabrics you want in there

Describing in half is preferred. Also, it allows you to change only the front or back parts

How does Luxire's own flannel hold up compared to the Dugdale dark gray? The latter is a 20 dollar premium, but heavier and without polyester. I'm bit of a purist when it comes to polyester, so I'm considering springing for the Dugdale but if the polyester makes for a longer-lasting trouser I could reconsider.

I have some of Luxire’s own brand, but cannot say for sure which ones you are referring to. They usually select good fabrics, but if it’s only $20 to move up to Dugdale that seems a good move.

This is promising to be the hottest trend for the coming summer.

Just for clarity, these are the two fabrics I had in mind:

Dugdale Dark Grey Wool Flannel

100% Wool,390 gms,13.5oz, Made in England This fabric is perfectly suitable for pants, jackets and warm coats. Dry cleaning recommended.

Grey Wool Flannel

85% Wool, 15% Nylon 10 - 12 oz / 300 gsm This fabric perfect choice for comfortable, warm pants and coats. Hand wash in cold water with a mild soap, rinse thoroughly, lay flat to dry

The Dugdale looks to be very good value.

Is there a thick chino fabric in sand?

A mid-high rise fit for my thighs and ass in a thicker fabric has been surprisingly hard to find.

Something that is like a more casual washed canvas khaki.

Where are the products made? I ask because anything outside of NAFTA gets hit with a 39-40% duty/tax rate here.

@BIGBILLYBIG - Dugdale, no question. I have a Luxire flannel which looks very similar to that but may be heavier. In any event, I’d pay the small upcharge.

@FlyingHorker - Luxire manufactures in India, from fabric sourced from a variety of countries.

Understatement of the year; reads more like a pricing error to me. Would expect 250-300 for that fabric.

I went ahead and copped the pants, cheers guys.

I got a pair made up in the Dugdale. Very nice. Definitely recommend it. At that price, and since grey flannel is such a staple, I'm considering getting a second pair made.
