On my most recent Luxire order I have a front rise of 12.5" and back rise of 18.5". Will be taking in the back rise from the waistband in the next order but happy with the front rise. For reference, I am 6'6" and the trousers sit at or just above my navel.


You must have a long torso. I am 6'0 with a 12.5" front rise and 18" back rise and they sit slightly below or at my navel.

Two orders arrived yesterday, EThomas cavalry twill and raw denim selvedge jeans (14.5oz).

Jeans I ordered using my trouser pattern as a baseline with some modifications. The modifications included lowering the rise 1.5cm, longer hem length and some others. The result is pretty good, and I would recommend going this route for people who have a good chino pattern and are looking for a somewhat similar fit with jeans. The crotch feels a bit tighter than in my chinos, same with the hip. That could be due to the heavier fabric weight and different construction. I'll start wearing these and see how they soften up, and then think what changes I'd like for my next pair. In any case, I consider this a success.

The EThomas cavalry twill is amazing, instantly one of my favorites. Nice weight, feels durable but has that "high-end" feel at the same time. Fit is getting damn near perfection.

I guess for my next adventure it is time to ship my bespoke jacket for replication to complete my black friday purchases...

Hello!
Would need some help for my next pair. From the green trouser lux was supposed to clean up the seat on the new order of the khakis. I'm not 100% satisfied with how it has been made, any ideas to make it better for next pair? Any other thoughts on fit improvement?
All help would be greatly appreciated!
I have those same "cream" trousers (they're a shiny yellow irl). I ordered them at the same time as a VBC flannel. The VBC flannel fits me quite well, whereas the cream trousers are nigh unwearable, as they do not drape and they wrinkle and crinkle if you so much as look at them. Also the color is fukken fugly. With that in mind, I believe your trousers fit you reasonably well. Send the pictures to luxire and ask for suggestions. I do not believe any large changes are going to be necessary.

I don't like when I get side adjusters and the extra fabric from the pull tab sticks out - largely depends on fabric though.

Anyone tried getting loops to tuck the excess fabric into? I know Luxire can do it, but I'm worried it may add some extra bulk to the silhouette of the waist.

My last order came standard with a little loop on the side adjuster. It's a tiny piece of fabric, doubt it will affect your waist silhouette tbh...

Wanted to recreate something similar to the Shirtonomy's turndown collar and that's how it looks like (it's the modified NOBD-II collar):

Shirtonomy:

I really like the end result. It looks nice with a tie (not so good without but who said all types of collars has to play with everything).

What’s the order #? I’m inclined to copy this collar as I like how it makes the neck/face look slimmer

@patliean1 , sure:

As I said, it was based on the NOBD-2 but with following adjustments:

- collar points length: 3.7"
- spread: 5"
- tie space: 0.4"

Thanks. I actually emailed Luxire two weeks ago with almost the exact same collar design but as a button down. Based of my existing modified NOBD II.

How does a VBC: Dark Grey Tropical Wool differ from a Fresco type of fabric?
