For gents who have purchase the $99 grey flannels, did you get them half or fully lined? I don't want them to "catch" on my OTC socks. https://luxire.com/products/grey-wool-flannel#/

Thanks.

@luxire Can you source a cloth like this for pants? This is a swatch from Harrison’s but it is about 5 years old. I tried searching online using the swatch number in this photo but couldn’t find anything.

Yesterday I received confirmation from Luxire that a package has been shipped by FedEx.

Today I received an SMS from FedEx telling me to send proof of the item's value (PayPal invoice). This might be problematic, considering that Luxire usually specify a value of 10 USD per item and not what I actually paid. I sent Luxire an e-mail and will see what they answer, but do any of you have similar experiences?

Furthermore, this is the first time Luxire uses FedEx and not DHL for my orders. From searching in this thread, it seems like it is possible to choose. Can any of you confirm? If so I will definitely specify DHL on future orders.

Yes, I always ask for shipping via DHL.

Not the best photos, but the first is a suit Luxire made for me in the linen-cotton canvas, and the second is an unstructured jacket they made in the heavyweight vintage linen.

Very nice. Looks like the structured piece is a bit more successful in holding its shape?

Yes, although I am also pleased with the cut and fit of the unstructured piece. In the photos above the suit had been worn all day, whereas the jacket was fresh on from being rolled up in a bag

@luxire
you have a very tight standard knee-lining fabric in pants, this lining is good for fall or spring, but not for summer.
In the last order I requested a thinner and breathable lining, I was told that there are no other linings, only a standard tight fabric.
Can you buy another kind of fabric lining for pants from light summer fabrics?
In my trousers of other manufacturers, everywhere is thinner and not like your tight knee-lining fabric.

Luxire has several lining options including bemberg, which generally is considered to be the best. Request bemberg with your next order.

Yes, I am aware of this option, but the page is uninformative, only the fabric names and color.
I was hoping that in the choice of lining I help professionals who will work on the order.

Here's what I wrote in the comments to the order
"Lining for knee use the thinnest and airy fabric"
Here's what I was told by customer service
"But we do use the standard white/black fabric for lining"
Nothing was said about the lining options.
My pants are not yet in production, you advise to choose bemberg for summer linen pants?

I have my linen pants unlined, but i would request bemberg if i wanted them lined.

@luxire, wondering if I have received an order in the wrong fabric? I ordered this wool rich to replace an older pair I have worn through, but it looks like a darker cloth.

Have the colours changed, or is this just the wrong fabric? Thanks!

Photos show my old pair next to my new pair.
