Just received the quest cotton trousers. Look and feel great. Question for @spiermackay , given the polished finish, any tips on pressing these? Simple pressing cloth at low heat should do the trick? I have had back luck with pressing the cotton/linen trousers in the past...

Yeah. And a lot of steam.

I like the pants. Was thinking of doing some sort of Fatigue pant. I have some ripstop I want to fool around with.

Fingers crossed for Weba merino. It is incredibly nice.

We're starting with Weba Non-Irons. They are the best in the business with their pre-cure treatment. Great hand, 50+ wash cycles. A little pricey. But Swiss made and great investment.

@spiermackay Was an "in-store/curbside pickup" option supposed to be added to the checkout process at some point in time?

This must have been added recently, but grabbed a pair of the Wheat Linens on final sale. Colour looks great in the photos. Anybody have any pics?

We already got 3r2, solid collar rolls, seersucker. High rise flat front chinos are on the way. Just need some classic blackwatch and patchwork madras added to the MTO!

Are you happy with how this fit turned out? I haven’t been able to bring myself to wearing fatigues with a sport coat yet (much less with a tie). I think I love your fit but it’s still a little jarring to my eye.

Good question. Honestly, I forget what we did last year. I know for popovers, we add 1" to the torso measurements. I know one season, the factory added 1" to the HALF, which ended up being 2" total. Can't remember if that was last year or the year before.....I'll have to check.

mid you wouldn’t mind following up on this, I have one of each color sitting in my cart

I can tomorrow. I'm not in the office and answering from my phone......

I promise, my last plug for M&E, but I do love their fabrics. I think they'd be great for MTO outerwear. Natural collection has some decent heft to it at 720g, and is rather soft for tweed. My Zanieri herringbone polo coat is great, but relatively lighter and more scratchy too.



In my head, MTO outerwear buyers would like fabrics like these.

Yeah, to me this is a pretty classic combo, particularly in Japanese Ivy style. I follow this guy who I think does this approach very well:

I like it, thanks. I’ll have to give this a go.

haha no worries!

Just curious about the shorts; is anyone really particular to the point that it makes a difference whether there are 2 fits to choose from?

 

[JIMIG]

No offense to S&M, but this dude looks great in everything he wears. In fact @JIMIG, you can stop pretending like you're looking for fit advice with perfect pictures of spectacular classic tailoring. The jacket is very nice, nevertheless.

Haha - thanks! SF and SM have helped me a lot

To those who have tried the linen field jackets -
From looking at the size charts, if I wanted to wear the field jackets as a casual sport coat substitute (so with only a shirt beneath), I should size down to achieve a more sport coat-like fit? Eg. if I am a 38 in the SC, I should get the field jacket in a 36?

Have you ever considered suit fabrics in charcoal/brown and dove grey @spiermackay? If not RTW/OTR, maybe through MTO? I'd definitely be in for both.
