Thank you for the information! I’ll take it into consideration for future purchases. I was wondering also because of CETA agreement, but I see it doesn’t change anything for this type of product. I

My Green pair. They're a little loose, but I've lost a bunch of weight lately. I'll probably give them 5 or 10 minutes in a medium dryer and see what that does and then take them in for hemming.

They look good but probably a touch too long. I like the shirt as well.

CETA is for goods make in Canada or the EU. Most of our items are made in Asia, so they wouldn't come under the agreement.

I stumbled onto the great Thomas Pink fire sale during lockdown. 3 dress shirts for $39 each. Two made in Como Grenadine ties for $24 each plus a made in the UK woven silk tie for $19 and a made in the UK cashmere sweater for $95. I walked away happy.

As for length, I didn't have S&M hem them. After the first wash or two, I'll take them in to my person for that.

Anyone have any feedback on the updated sweatshirts? I'm wearing mine at least 3x a week now. Wearing it now as I type this.

Sweatshirts are a pretty ubiquitous item, but to find something solid at a reasonable price was a challenge. I think these at $48 USD offer a solid value. Fabric is really great IMO. Wash well, and break in like an old school sweat.

So I was a bit disapointed that there is no 31 slim in trousers so I ordered a 32. Turns out the 32 is actually smaller than the cords in 31.

They will have to go back which is a minor annoyance.

That said, the trousers are awesome. Even my wife picked them up off the coffee table and commented on the quality. I'm actually not sure how S&M can deliver such high quality stuff at these prices.

Looking forward to getting some in my size

Good, our old guy would hem them like Daisy Dukes.......lol I Kid, I kid. We sorted the hem issues. All is good now. Don't be afraid. Anyone who is not happy with the hem work, email CS, they will take care of you.

Yeah I've got some new and old ones. Great product. I don't need new stuff all the time but I hope you guys keep them as an ongoing item.

The only thing I'd say is maybe add a dark forest green.

Love the product.

How was everything else, other than the waist?

31 cords, have a finished waist of 33.

32 Trousers have a finished waist of 33.5. Keep in mind manufacturing tolerances. Trousers can be taken in/let out fairly easily. If all else fits well (hip/thigh/leg) better to adjust the waist. Changing sizes means all the other proportions will be changed too.

In terms of value. We think we offer fair value. Others just overcharge or under deliver in terms of quality.

I ordered one yesterday, looking forward to it.

And you're right, it is hard to find quality basics with no logo.

I initially didn't like mine as it seemed a bit too shiny and not as soft/broken in feeling like my classic uniqlo terry cotton grey melange. Though after wearing it a few times I started to like it more and the fit is so much better because it isn't a box. After I wash it a couple times I am sure it will become softer and age better. Any other casual basics coming like henley's or what not?

What ended up being the issue with hemming? As some people got them perfect, while others got them butchered. Must have been a hit for you with some of those jobs

Different tailors. It is a human at the machine still.

Mash now. You won't be disappointed. Keep in mind they are "dress" trousers and lean more formal.
