Hi all

Need some advice with the Cotten tress trousers

Took a bunch of my new purchases into the local dry cleaners to get the shortened



I opted to cuff the dress trousers while the chinos got the regular hemming.

However, now that I’m home, I noticed that they screwed up and forgot to cuff one pair originally

Looks like the proceeded to undo the error and re did the cuffing.

Now there is visible needle holes above the cuff. Pics attached

So my question is, will these needle holes go away with another wash cycle ? Don’t want to attempt if it is known not to work.

Otherwise I’ll have to take it back and complain about this.

Perhaps at the very least request to simply uncuff it and go with regular hem ?

Any help appreciated gents

Have you tried pressing them?

The UPS man has been very kind this week.

The summer tweed and Drago windowpane just arrived so took a break from work to share a couple pics. That Drago windowpane is a steal in the MTO, loving the cloth in person.

Not yet. I’ll give that a try and report back tonight. Thanks

Even if they "may" come out with doing something, I would still take them back to where you got them done and complain to see if they will do something. The rest were done fine, and especially with what you originally pay for these trousers I would definitely be upset. That is like you paying for a hole to be patched in your wall and the person just put some wood in there and covered it with paint lol. Just my two cents

Second guessing my size, fellas. This is 40S Contemporary. I feel like the length is good, and that it fits well across the gut and my large posterior, but something about it feels big across the chest. Does it look it? Trying to figure out if I should size down, or if this is just a small adjustment for my tailor. Thanks! PS: Sleeves are rolled in the photos.

AgreeD the windowpane is a steal. When did you order yours? I’m still waiting for me.

I think it was just shortly after they dropped. Might be that my two jackets got lumped in together to be finished.

Gonna answer my own question and say yes, it's too big. Might try the slim instead. Shout out to @Burzan for the comparison photos (on Instagram.)

I wish they made (off the rack) a 40 short slim. I would definitely buy. I always have to get my 40S contemporaries taken in

A few pics of the 46R neo full Canvas..all of “alterations heads”.. can my tailor work with this, or should I return it? What alterations do you foresee?

In my not so expert opinion, I think it looks good and a tailor can work with it. The sleeves look uneven, but that can easily be remedied.

The chest looks a bit tight as the lapels aren't overlapping your shirt collar and have a bowed shape. Might be your posture in the photo though.

I was poking my chest out a little bit as I was looking upwards in the pic. That might be the culprit. I did notice that in the the front pic but the suit normally doesn’t look tight or bow at the lapel unless I poke my my chest out. But I could be wrong
