I'm looking at getting a white oxford...trying to wrap my head around the differences in the warzone oxfords. I want something great for everyday office wear. What's the difference between the warzone, the warzone plus, and the warzone heavy?

Just received my first order! Had trial pants made and am pretty pleased for a first attempt. My tastes are trendier than most here, and I didn't find much similar to what I wanted in prior posts, so I figure these results might be useful to a particular niche of users.

First, regarding service:
I'm about to go on vacation and asked whether these could be rushed at all so I could get them in time to test on my travels. NINE DAYS FROM ORDER TO DOOR IN NYC. They're not a special fabric and I didn't have any tricky requests - but still. Completely amazing. Thanks Lux

Photos of the pants straight out of the box:

This is what I was going for:

7NwHA88.jpg


Only special detail I requested was a 1.25" sewn cuff which isn't offered as a standard size. I also requested the fabric be hot washed and tumbled to reduce shrinkage, hopefully their shape doesn't change wildly in the wash. Still plan to wash cold and air dry.

Fit: I used garment measurements Frankenstein'd together from 5 different pants, including Unis Gios, Unis Fords, and some Black Lapel MTM trousers. These meet those numbers exactly. The main issues seem to be puckering at the crotch and a fairly pronounced wedgie.

Any ideas on how to improve fit? Obviously these are cut very slim, and I'm thinking playing with the back rise and making them .25-.5" looser everywhere may clean up the drape. I'm also slightly bow legged, so short of changing them to a relaxed cut, I don't know that they will ever hang perfectly straight.

Do you perspire alot?

Do you wash your neck well?....lol

How many times do u wear each prior to washing?


I use "shout it out"...works every time

I also have pre soaked w/ soap......works


Also, white vinegar pre soak...works


wash cold first......or you will heat soak stain in

That wedgie is kinda the most common issue with early iterations at Luxire. I would say you send them these pictures and they will change the next pair of pants/tell you how to order it to ease the issue.
A shortcut can sometimes be to take it to a local tailor, adjust most measurements to perfection and have a him writing done all the changes.
