Awesome to hear. For what it's worth, something with the collar height of the Roma Cutaway (or the Milano, though that might not be as popular to some here) and ~4" collar points would be so moneyWe are working on something like this.

We're always adding new fabrics. Lots of new stuff coming for fall.Are you expecting new fabrics for fall?
Navy buttons haven't been on our list, but we discussed internally recently. Generally we've considered brown horn the "classic" option for a navy suit/jacket. Curious if you are looking for a flat unvarying navy color button, or something more horn looking with flecks of white/blue variance?Hi @Seph - I'm really enjoying my fist PC tailored blazer! Do you have any plans to bring out navy buttons as an option on a navy suit/jacket? Also, could you add the weight of cloth to the description of your tailored items? This would allow customers to see how heavy the cloth is and whether it would work in their own climate/location.
@Seph, I've been noticing that your fabric colors skew pretty heavily toward the cool / neutral end of the spectrum. I'd love to see more warm fabrics, especially Fall / Winter casual ones. Earth tones, spice colors, etc..
I've been shopping for Fall shirts, and all the fabrics / patterns that I like (and that work for my complexion) seem to be some flavor of blue. I'm at the point where I can't justify more blue shirts!
Thank you for reading.
This is an ongoing struggle. We definitely adjust for shrinkage on oxfords in a way that we don't on broadcloths. It's not perfect, but it's better than nothing and I hope we can improve this over time. One of the big variables that is tough to account for is how you plan to launder the shirt. If you wash/dry the oxford it can shrink a large amount. If you take it to the cleaners for a wash/press it may actually stretch larger. Whatever you end up doing though, once you get the oxford shirt, if, after a wash or two it ends up too large or too small, the team here will help you process a remake and create/save a new size specifically for that type of fabric/your wash method.How accurate are Proper Cloth's shrinkage allowances for different fabric types? For example, if I've designed a great fitting shirt in broadcloth and then order an oxford shirt, will it fit similarly or might it shrink more than the broadcloth? I know for some companies (e.g. Brooks Brothers) their oxford shirts shrink a lot more than other weaves.
