@luxire Would you consider doing a RTW drawstring cord trouser? Guessing it would sell well in these times when everyone's lounging at home.

 

[StanleyVanBuren]

We have this one in blue.

We worked with Ethomas over iterations to make a fabric that is light, soft, comfortable and drapes well.

Interested. Looks like it has some silk content. Is it machine washable?

To me the appeal of a wool shirt is how wrinkle resistant they are and that they need to be washed infrequently. Still, when it does need a wash, I'd rather be able to do it at home than have to send it out.

Yes, machine washable.
Very resistant to wrinkles, natural anti-bacterial properties of wool.

True waist size. Quite accurate.

Thanks. Placed the order, along with one more custom pair of pants.

I was admiring this piece on the site: https://luxire.com/products/olive-wool-flannel-work-shirt?_pos=15&_sid=1e529ce41&_ss=r#/

Do you have other similar wool flannel shirt fabrics or perhaps some chamois or moleskin you particularly recommend?

Lot of wool flannel options available for pants. Can be made as shirt as well.
Wool flannels, in plain & tartan, tweed, moleskin, corduroy are all possible.

The new moleskins from Zegna, with Cashmere are particularly good. Apart from that, the lighter flannels from VBC will make good shirts. There are many good options.

RTW pea coat size question

This image explains

Spoiler: image

View attachment 1516424

The above is from the recent RTW pea coat size chart, and the below is from the old pea coat size chart here
I guess that the above's chest size is half chest and the below is 2*half chest.
But I think something is weird. In the below, XXL has chest 46.00, half of which is 23.00, and it corresponds to 38 size in the above chart.
And your explaining image has existed in the past, so it is reasonable to guess that that image is applied to the bottom chart.
But M, chest 40, in the below, seems just based on body measurement, not pea coat itself measurement.

So, it is hard to wrap my head around, but I concluded that
The above is pea coat itself based measurement, and the below is based on body measurement.
Is this understanding right?

These are peacoat measurements, not body measurements.

If you would compare many charts, you will confuse yourself, even if they are all from Luxire. Do not assume anything.
The charts evolve in many ways: prevalent standards, market we target, purpose we try to meet etc.

Just look at the present RTW chart and see what size, if any, works for you.

Okay, thanks for your reply, even though I still can't understand how once XXL size chest is now just the second smallest size (38)...

Most of the EU fast fashion brands mark the chest size for XS peacoats as 19.50 to 20.00. Thin, slim fashion coats.

Most classic brands have them at 21.50 to 22.50. One factor that is important is thickness of wool. Our wool is thick, hence the inner room is same as about size 21" coat chest. We have made them with the idea of wearing them over a jacket or a cardigan. Also, our coats are true-to-size.

These are good measurements. They will work well for most people.

Do you have any wide stripe shirtings like this caccioppoli or even wider perhaps? Cotton or linen or a blend?
