when sending trousers for replication, what are the chances of a wedgie? I had a terrible experience with test trousers, measuring myself, measuring trousers and agreeing to whatever luxire suggested... now I have a very reasonable pattern with different tailor, I'd prefer to order from them, but the Holland and sherry cloth is not available anymore from them... I wouldn't want to get a wedgie on a 400£ trousers...
My copied trousers and shirts have been phenomenal. Jacket required some additional alterations but is looking real nice now, will post soon

Saw your email. Your order was from August 2019.

Anyone whose pattern precedes November 2020 and has had fit issues, we recommend starting afresh.
Our geometry of our older pattern technique worked very well for some customers but not as well for some others.
The new geometry works well for most customers. A similar technique is used by the best tailors in the world.

But sending well-fitting pants an equally good option to restart.

Thanks! No rush! I’m pretty sure it’s not on Holland and sherrry books already, and the only reason I contacted you was because you still show picture of it... anyway it will be project for when corona in London is over...

Received this Ethomas plaid jacket last week. My third jacket from luxire - they raised the armhole on my pattern, lowered the gorge and buttoning point, and took it in a bit at the waist. I’m pretty pleased - only thing worth addressing are a bit of roll near the collar on the shoulders and the pattern matching on the back seam

Looks nice overall. On the new jacket, I notice a bit of a roll/“wave” on the collar itself (you can notice on the one side especially). Is that due to a press or is the collar in theory a bit too short? I’ve had this on several of my Luxire jackets and noticed on several other member photos. I think we’ve gotten to the root and fixed it in at least one, but wondering if it’s just part of their standard pattern and something that others are having challenges with.

I'd say the lighting exaggerates it a little but it's not press related - a common issue for many of my jackets. Couldn't say whether it is an issue with their pattern as the left shoulder is quite clean, and that's my 'normal' shoulder
