Not in MTO. The pattern set doesn't exist. No plans for RTW at the moment

 

[chatelet]

That's not right....have to look into it. They clearing your cache and try it again.

That worked, cheers.

Where'd you get that tie?

PM-ed you

Really dig this. Is the roll outta control (in a good way) when worn without a tie?

Thanks! And yeah, it's quite a full roll without a tie, very pleasing. I'd imagine a stock C23 would have slightly even more roll due to the shorter band height

@spiermackay Those denim shirts coming in extra slim?

 

[exfalso]

Yes. Trying to plan a regular restock starting in May. Also will introduce new styles.

Dress shoes with Dainite soles by any chance?

 

[MisterrLovely]

Wow that's a slim.. good you didn't go contemporary yeah, that definitely needs to go to the tailor. Did you try a size down? Some jackets also size way off (tried a brown Abraham moon that was just 1 size wrong from Spier, honestly it felt like a 40 and I'm always a 38 or 38L)

I considered it, but I'm worried about the shoulder being off I try a 36. The shoulders end where mine naturally do, sleeve length is perfect, I can cup the end of the jacket, back looks clean, no gaps. It's weird because this and a grey hopsack SC are the two I have where the sides need a bit of tailoring. All other 38 slims from S&M, the sides are perfect. Must just be a sizing inconsistency, but it's a small alteration.

I think the looser look is nice too.

Sometimes it seems like people want to go with as much waist suppression as they can get, but it's not a necessity.

Yeah, I go back and forth on wanting to have it altered or not. Both looks are great, though, imo.

Thank you for the advice. I'm also considering Suit Supply, but I like the cut of Spier and Mackay more, especially the lapels and shoulders, as you've also said yourself.

If I'm really unhappy I could return it, but it would be a shame shipping it all the way to Europe just to ship it back, I'm not sure if I want to risk paying twice for customs and shipping. Maybe I'll go with SS until Spier and Mackay (hopefully) set foot in Europe.

It's good to have someone to compare to though.

Personally, I don’t like the fit of suit supply.

I’d bet SM could do alright, profit wise, with grenadines.

I would definitely buy

IIRC almost all grenadines, save for Hober, come from one place in Italy.
