I have several pairs of the less expensive linen trousers that Luxire offers, and they're all great, very nice drape with minimal wrinkling. The navy linen and chocolate brown linen are especially nice, I wear them constantly in warmer weather.

how many wearings do you get before you find you have to iron them?

Trying to contribute more to this thread that has provided so much inspiration to me..... so here goes. This is the G&R Flame Red Gingham Oxford. Sorry about the bad photo (iPhone timer) and I don't know what I was doing to make the sleeves look too short but I think this may be my new favourite shirt. My original intention was for this shirt to go with tan corduroys but I think it's actually better with denim. Still waiting on my cords from Luxire though. It's actually a pretty versatile shade of red and goes well with a lot of things but does not do well under a jacket, for me at least.

I'm super lazy and rarely iron anything. I usually just wait until they start looking sloppy and get them cleaned, but that takes a while, and not really because of wrinkles but because after a while the crease doesn't look as crisp. I wear them maybe once every other week, or once a week at most, and I can go a couple months before they start looking shabby.

I'll see your super laziness and say that I'm super lazy and NEVER iron anything. What you need is a steamer and a trouser press, son. It takes about one minute to wave the steamer over the wrinkles, then you drop it in the press and let it do its thing.

I have a steamer that I use sometimes since I hate ironing (mainly just for shirts though), but a trouser press is definitely something I'd love to have someday.

the trouser attachment for my steamer does a serviceable job of setting a crease

although, so does an iron with a pressing cloth

Which press do you have?

Has anyone used the prepaid FedEx service for mailing items to Luxire? I have a jacket for replication (counts as 2 items) and 4 shirts to get altered. That's 6 items total, but in the drop-down box I can only select up to a max of 3 items. How do I add that to my cart? Can I just select the option for 3 items and then change the quantity to 2 in my cart, and add in the notes that I'm just looking for one prepaid label so I can send everything back in one consolidated package? That would be $80...I'm hoping there's a slightly cheaper way to do this since I'll be sending everything in one package.
