Hello, gentlemen. We are trying to see if there would be any interest in a group buy for Dugdale Cavalry Twill trousers. We are looking at potentially offering 2-3 different colours in our high-rise trouser style, at a price of about $250 USD. If there is enough interest in these, orders would open up sometime in July/August, with delivery taking place between September-October. Please let us know if you would be interested in this potential project.
I would be interested. Love your high-rise models and cav twill are my favorite trousers. Would be especially interested in shades of grey, beige, and chocolate brown. Thanks.

Long time reader (lurker) of this forum, first time poster...Created an account just to be able to comment on this. I’d be very interested in cavalry twill offerings, mostly in the classic colors (shades of gray, blue, green, brown, even black could be interesting). High rise cut would be a must for me.

I've looked at the white rose book in the past but can someone remind me of the differences vs the s&m's current vbc covert offering that would justify the upcharge? (Weight, hand, difference in twill, etc)

Cream would also be a good color for cav twill. More unusual so hard to find elsewhere, yet highly versatile.

Absolutely be interested in Dugfale cavalry twill. Mid grey would be ideal. The other classic colors like brown and green would be great too

Olive green and cream are colors I’d want in Dugdale Calvary twill.

Are all Spier and Mackay sport coats half canvased? On the product pages of some sport coats it specifies it's half canvased while on others there is no mention of any canvasing.

For example the Marling & Evans Undyed Check (here) specifies "Half Canvas Construction" while the Abraham Moon Brown Houndstooth (here) makes no mention of any canvasing.

Everything should be half canvas: https://www.spierandmackay.com/content/about-our-suits. There is the option also for full canvas for MTO and some RTW suits (not sure if they make those anymore)

That only refers to their suits though and it makes sense that they are all at least half canvased due to their formal nature. Sport coats though are more informal and I've seen some non-Spier sport coats where there were no canvasing which sparked my curiosity when I noticed that not all of their product description pages for their sport coats specifies the existence of canvasing.

That looks great. Only wish it had elastic knit finishing around the cuffs and waist. Unfortunately, that's a deal breaker for me.

EDIT: have they provided any price target for it?

That's funny. I'm very interested in a safari/field jacket exactly like the one they prototyped, and it would be a complete dealbreaker if it had any kind of elastic/knit finishing anywhere. What do you find appealing about that sort of thing?

If I remember correctly, they were targeting 599 USD. I believe it was intended for this FW season though, and never worked out. Hopefully they'll still go ahead with it at some point.

Interesting because that linked page says, "All our Off-the-Rack suits and sportcoats feature a lightweight half canvas construction."

LOL, sorry, I missed that. That's what happens when you're multitasking and do a fast skim read. :embar:
