jetted

Already decided. Flaps. Those who want jetted can tuck them in easily for the same look.

Please make sure they are "right sized". The latest V3's have (in my untrained eye) flaps that are about 3/8" too big.

I better start saving money now. I want at least 2 of the 3 (probably will end up getting all 3) of the f/w sportscoat and now this pinstripe suit.

Guys,

Really quick. Flannel Chalk Stripe Suits for FW.

Patch or Jetted pockets? This will be in the Neapolitan cut.

Since the decision has already been made I have withdrawn my selection.

@spiermackay is there any chance there will be a solid mid grey flannel suit this F/W?

Yes. In separates. Our normal sportcoat style for the jacket, so patch pockets. Same will go for a Solid Navy Flannel.

@spiermackay Did you ever find out if the factory came through with every size for the upcoming trousers?

I'm 15.5 Regent in Brooks Brothers, should I order 15.5 Contemporary?

I assume 15.5 but since Spier and MacKay tailored garments are known to fit rather snug, would you size up to 16?

I'm keeping mum until I have the physical pieces. This always tends to blow up in my face. haha

Haha understandable.

On another note my two jackets are arriving Friday. Been experiencing pretty fast shipping lately from S&M considering I ordered this weekend and live all the way down in California.

Jetted or flap, please.

How the linen pants look after a regular warm wash and hang dry. Look surprisingly decent IMO for not being ironed.

Almost no shrinkage around the waist either.

What do you guys do for hemming again? Seems like getting the right length for linen is tricky.

For linen I always add a little extra break on the shoe. The wrinkling will use up the small bit of extra length and make sure my pants aren't riding up to much.

Any rough idea on how much? 0.25"? 0.5"?
