The sizing chart for 34 contemp trousers show a u rise of 10.8". Am I looking at the wrong measurements? I have noticed that while the front rise is usually ok when sizing up, tailoring down the waist on dress trousers, it is the back rise I still have an issue with, i.e. too short. This could also be me having a larger than average seat so as you stated, MTO will likely be the route of least resistance...With these tempting releases each season, you can't you blame me for wanting to make OTR work!

Can't adjust back rise through MTO, unfortunately. Already asked as I'm suffering from the same issue as you.

I wish S&M would allow for adjustment of back rise and also adjusting the rise at certain points, i.e. at crotch or waist which means that you'd be able to make the U wider in addition to making it higher.

I'd probably commission all my trousers and suits from S&M if that was the case. Heck, with the amount or SCs I'm commissioning from them and with the incoming MTO options for outwear, I'd probably just ask my employer to transfer my salary to S&M to save us all some time.

Any 2 button jacket you can ask to be 3 roll 2 in the notes.

So glad to hear this is an option! Just ordered a custom SC and more will surely follow. Thank you!

Di Pray, Cerrutti, Delfino, Carlo Barbera and Piacenza all have great cashmere. We'll start with the staple Navy and go from there. We can get cuts from Barbera and Piacenza but they are $$$$



In production.

Speaking of oatmeal, any chance of the oatmeal tweed sport coat coming back?

Working with them on a MTM and in the last fitting I was also told that the u rise is all they could adjust so this looks like something that even their current MTM cannot account for. I was under the impression that initially (about a year ago) we were able to adjust front and back rise seperately. @spiermackay can you confirm this is indeed the case?

Can you designate lapel size with a MTO jacket?

Cream Quest cotton came in today. In a nutshell: don't sleep on these guys.

This is my first high-rise pair and I absolutely love them. I really like the dressy cut combined with the casual fabric. Make these an everyday pair that you can wear to any casual environment, look sharp without being overdressed you know...

In the pictures below, they look a bit grayish, but that's just lighting or my phone. IRL, a true cream color pretty much as shown on the website.

A few fit pics straight out of the box.

These look excellent! Would you say the sizing is on spec or do they come up snug?

Gosh, this fits you perfect! Just some hemming and cuffing and you're good to go!

 

[Rafael Loh]

Does anyone know if the OTR high rise trousers have room to make the rise higher?

 

[SteveMc]

Seems like it:
waist: 80 cm
front rise: 29 cm
thigh: 64 cm (not sure how exactly S&M measures, I measured 5 cm below crotch seem)
hem: 38 cm

Edit: for a 30 contemporary.
