First MTO order just arrived, and I'd like some feedback. Sorry in advance for the rumples, but I wasn't expecting them in so soon and was excited to try them on. Also, the last picture is the backside of the waistband shows a spot that isn't sewn together. Normal or needs to be fixed?

I don't think you're being generous enough with your calf/ankle measurements.

Did you tweak measurements at all or just order a stock size?

 

[ShibuiC]

Normal...in fact, the sign of high quality tailoring. Your trousers look very nice.

Thanks! It did strike me as intentional considering the stitch in the center but it's my first time seeing it so I needed some confirmation.

Did you not ask for a dinner split?

Ah, it even has a name. I did not ask for nor did I know it was an option. Thanks for the info.

Noted. Left it at 15.5 but will consider increasing it on my next pair.

I was fitted in store and it seems none of my measurements are available online but I believe we decided to go with a stock size for the most part. 33 slim high rise

just got my 2nd jacket ever from s&m and i absolutely love it. don't know why i waited so long to try them out.
my 1st was the light brown sondrio neapolitan. this time i went with the linen db. fit and quality are a1
just a couple questions...
1. are there any differences in the sleeve for the neapolitan vs non neapolitan
2. i went with a 40r slim and the fit is pretty spot on. how much of a difference does the contemporary sizes make?
i looked at the charts and it seems very minimal...like half an inch larger in some areas. do any of you interchange slim and contemporary fits in the jacket or do yall take the same size in every one?

I’ve heard tell this suit increases the size of the wearer’s ******** no less than 25%. As one unwilling to engage in hearsay, I can neither confirm nor deny the legitimacy of this rumor. Just wanted to throw it out there, for any who may be interested in the scientific method.
All seriousness, this suit is silly nice. Amazingly inky shade of green. Highly recommended to anyone who may find themselves on the fence about it.

I want the chocolate version bad, but I just won’t spend any more money on clothes till the future is clear.

@Riva thanks for the picture - it was enough to push me over to buy the last one in my size. Now the dreaded wait for the ship confirmation.

After looking at it again and comparing it with the Botto Giuseppe Mint Green Flannel I want to sell the green E Thomas. The Botto is just superior in every regard and the online pics don't do it justice. The color is a lot darker than shown. Very classy, definitely one of the top 3 fabrics SM ever used. Don't miss this one especially with the 25% off the sale price.

Totally different uses. The ET in summer rotation, Botto in winter rotation.
I agree the mint is great, but I have both and see very little overlap.

Drago brown slub

This is such a nice fabric. Linen wool silk looks like wool but airy and cool wearing. It's a lot redder than the prev VBC brown slub but the fabric is nicer. Would look more relaxed with beige / cream buttons.

Right but the flannel thin enough as not being too warm. In any case just letting people know not to miss a real gem.

Looks so good. It was a tough decision to keep the seersucker and pass on this.

Agreed, This is one sweet jacket!

 

[FlyingHorker]

I really appreciate how many green offerings S&M has for trousers and sports coats.

 

[FlyingHorker]

This is a 38R on me, should I try 38L? Leaning towards sticking with 38R

I bought the mint flannel last fall. Probably my favorite S&M fall/winter jacket so far.
