Don't waste your time with Oxxford, it's crap.
In your opinion, Tomasso, If Oxxford is crap, then all other clothing brands must also be crap ranging from crappy to extraordinarily crappy.
I think Tomasso was joking. IIRC, he is a long term, very satisfied Oxxford customer, as are most who have used them. Nobody makes everybody happy.
I thought I read that the Crest line was designed by Jack Taylor , the famous Beverly Hills tailor but ended when they parted ways.
Could you mean Jack Simpson, who's something of an upscale designer? He used to be affiliated with Oxxford. I think I've seen very nice stuff under his own name at a Last Call -- someone said his own-label stuff is now made by someone like Martin Greenfield or Rocco Siffr- sorry, Ciccarelli.
Slightly wider shoulder, nipped waist, cut close at the hip, slightly longer jacket. It is a somewhat dramatic cut.
Of all of the Crest jackets that I have seen, I definitely like yours the most, mafoofan. That two-button single breasted Crest jacket with the peak lapel is ultra sharp!
I own a bit of Oxxford that I like, but I do not love any of it. I have no theory why this is so, but it is always a bit off the mark.
I have heard from several other forum members who have switched, and in my case not being able to get an honest answer months after asking where 2 lost suits and 2 odd pants have disappeared and waiting for a year is enough to make me wonder what advantage going to them over a tailor would be.
They need a more coherent and consistent styling direction. I think they should not be afraid of looking 'American' and stop trying to borrow from Brioni or Kiton.
